Always a great meal with fantastic service at this and all the Cecconi's locations that I have frequented worldwide. We were happy to get a table with a view and try some creative cuisine. The whipped ricotta with truffle was superb. I feel like a lot of restaurants have the same menus these days and the chef really puts his own spin on some basic items and really makes them mouth watering. Quite the enjoyable experience!

We had a wonderful lunch at Patrizia’s on Sunday. Our appetizers of fried calamari and burrata were amazing - probably the best calamari I’ve ever had. Our entrees were delicious and plentiful and dessert was the icing on the cake. What a gem in this little Queens neighborhood!

The aurora team is unmatched! My friend and I went for brunch and before we knew it, we had talked and eaten for 4 hours. It’s not often you get a great staff so supportive of a good, long yap session. They even gave my friend a free birthday tiramisu! I will absolutely be going back.
