    My wife and I always travel for Christmas and we love Italian dining. We do our best to find the most authentic, charming places we can. Typically these are going to be the places that seat 50 people and you may not think about going in. We’ve ate at multiple spots in Chicago, Indianapolis, Atlanta, Columbus, Cincinnati, Charleston, Alexandria… this is our new favorite! My goodness is was amazing! The staff was on top of it and soooo friendly. Our waiter, Gabriel was extraordinary! We legit felt like we were in Sicily. If you make one reservation in New York, make it here.

    The 5p seating with the theater prex fixe was spot on! The burrata and endive salad were very well done, and the chicken and steak were perfect. Well timed, good value, professional service - and we were check closed and exiting the restaurant at 630, in perfect time to walk to our show. Definitely recommend (and I’m hard to please).
