    Food is amazing ! Second time going service was a little better the first time . Little slower today but still very good. The only negative is the bathrooms are the cleaniness of busy Burger King or chevron versus a nice Italian restaurant. Besides that everything about this place is great !!

    Where do I even start with this place, made a reservation was sat in a tiny crowded area where you couldn’t even pull out your chairs and not hit the person behind you, we asked to move tables and they put us on the side of there servers dish rack where they were reaching over our heads to grab utensils and plates, we moved again to a third table and was told we couldn’t sit there, so 4th time moving tables by then we were already frustrated and should have left, decided to stay and the servers were passive aggressive slamming water and bread down on our table like they were in a bad mood, the food was awful, ordered the gnocchi and it was basically raw dough in a sauce, lobster lasagna was so fishy and disgusting, sassy guava mocktail was watery and didn’t taste right, had to send food back, overall super disappointing experience and our bill was $400, laughable at how much this place sucked, we should have left the second they made us move tables 4 times in a empty restaurant.

    I was really excited to try this place—the interior is just as cute as the photos and the ambiance is great. Sadly, that’s where the positives ended. We had an 8 PM reservation but were told to come back in 20 minutes, then waited another 10. The host tried to seat my family of five at a table for four, and when I asked to wait for a proper table, he told me to look around and see if anyone was done—seriously? Eventually, we were seated at another four-top on the patio, and when I reminded him we were waiting for an indoor table for five, he said, “Isn’t this inside enough for you?” We appreciated the manager passing out champagne to those waiting, but the service was disorganized, drinks were missed or wrong, and several dishes came out cold. Disappointing overall, and I hope this was just an off night.

    The amazing mind blowing taste of the food was overshadowed by laid back and slow vibe of the service. Perhaps this was a culture difference vs what we are used to, but getting our order took a while as our waiter didn’t seemed rushed to ask for it. Allegro lasagna was to die for and would 120% recommend it. Next trip here I may visit other restaurants in little Italy but could come back.

    Acudí con grandes expectativas por su calificación. Noté que varios lugares al rededor tenían más afluencia y ahí empecé a sospechar. Al llegar me recibieron muy amablemente pero el servicio es más bien lento. La mesera fue amable y muy sonriente. Los alimentos no fueron tan buenos contra el precio. Tiene. Mucha competencia y seguramente mejores precios en otros lados
