Kayleigh Harrington: Amazing pasta. Started with delicious mozzarella, then the mafaldini (you have to try it), the agnolotti was nice, and finished with a warm ginger apple tart. Go early and sit at the bar.
Emily Kane: Step 1: Get the cacio e pepe frittelle as a starter. Step 2: Celebrate your incredible life choices.
AmateurConcierge: Definitely get the squash app and mafaldini which is an al dente lovers dream. Skip the cauliflower (undercooked). Fritelle cacio e Pepe a good fried treat no doubt but foursquare overloving it

Eric Abergel: Another incredible Italian resto from Missy Robbins and co. - just come with a good sized group and try as much as possible! Loved the Crostini and 30 clove rigatoni.
Elizabeth Iriz: They have redefined my relationship with vegetables! I could almost skip the pasta and just get all veggies. Definitely don’t overlook them.
Courtney Desh: DEFINITELY get the ricotta and peppers app!!! Delicious. The prices are great too.

Ashley Chan: Go for the ricotta dip, Uncle Gus pizza (prosciutto, artichoke) and black shell seafood pasta. Those standout dishes and the spacious, homey setting led to a great dinner.
Raj: Excellent service, eclectic but good Italian wine list, and starters are to die for. Suckling pig was over-brined when we were there however
Alisha V: Sweet corn ravioli is delicious! I ate it in all of 5 minutes😅

Brit R: The most authentic Italian pizza in BK, which is no surprise as Giuseppe (owner/chef) started making pizza in Sicily at 13. He is both an exceptional chef + a lovely human being. You will love it!!
Colette Mahoney: A true delicacy and Italian gem in the heart of Williamsburg. Unlike your usual pizza, this one is light and easy to eat more of. All 100% Italian ingredients.
Sidharth Shanker: Incredible ambience and delicious food—this place is a true gem
