    The tuna cecina is amazing. Get that and then get the tortellini and crab pasta and then the chicken

    Avocado cecina is what dreams are made of. Add in any pasta and you're golden. Don't forget that avocado cecina...

    The shrimp zingara is a delicious riff on the traditional risotto especially with the poached eggs

    Great atmosphere. Great service. Food was pretty good, drinks were a bit pricey. Would overall recommend.

    Awesome new restaurant. Makes you feel like you aren't in NYC and rather some beach town somewhere. The food is also excellent.

    Everything is amazing, but certain dishes didn't justify the price tag.

    Good location and great for a sunny day, but typical Meatpacking prices (very overpriced).

    I don't actually know what "coastal Italian" means. But I do know that you cannot miss the tuna tartare and chicken.

    Meh... New, trendy, overrated! cool plates and interior. Terrible server uniforms and main courses. Underwhelming meal. Deserts were subpar. Tuna Cecina was divine but the sea bass was too busy.
