From the OpenTable editors: You know you're going to get some of the best Italian food at this legendary Joe Bastianich haunt because it's been going strong since 1998. Babbo set the stage for contemporary fine-dining Italian restaurants in the city, and you can still expect exemplary dishes like warm lamb's tongue and citrusy sweetbreads all white seated in a Greenwich Village townhouse where Led Zeppelin and Blondie play in the background.

The noise level is more than energetic. The music is deafening and distracted from the food and setting.

Food and service were amazing! The music didn’t seem to fit vibe and was way too loud. I had dinner with my 18 year old daughter and friends and they agreed.

Cute neighborhood vibe restaurant. The food is straight forward classic Italian . We had the prosciutto with arugula and the 100 layer lasagna. The lasagna was very creative, not as big as you’d imagine but with many layers and paired with one side of marinara and the other with bechemel . Service was pleasant but you needed to ask for water, olive oil, bread, etc. It looked like bar seating was more fun.
