Love this restaurant and it never disappoints! Our friends were late coming in from NJ - traffic- and the restaurant was so lovely accommodating the delay. Unfortunately for the restaurant a large party in the wine cellar cancelled- but it allowed us to have a wonderful intimate dinner with friends! Food was wonderful!

I love the atmosphere at Estiatoro. It’s chic and friendly at the same time. Service was friendly and knowledgeable. Tonight we had the fresh grilled sardines and the beef short ribs in tomato sauce. Both absolutely delicious. Of course the sardines were a lighter choice. The beef, while delicious was a more bountiful portion. If you are hungry, go for it. If you can’t finish, take it home. I had a great lunch today.

Great experience. Food excellent. Reserved the private round table tucked in back of restaurant for 3 couples. Food was excellent everyone loved their choices. Service was good. One thing that was odd was that when we got there all the glasses and plates were upside down rims touching table. We are germaphobes so we wiped down our glasses. Also when server brought the Pellagrino she just plopped it on table not opened, no ice, no lemon. Typically a restaurant will bring it with glasses filled with ice and lemon/lime wedges. Despite these minor oversights, I do recommend this very good restaurant in the heart of Ridgewood.
