Best Italian food in the area! why? because it's run by Italians who make you feel welcome. Go and say ciao to Sandro and enjoy if you have a problem tell 'em same way you would tell your mom at home.
My favorite Italian resto in possibly all of NYC. Managing Owner, Sandro serves up authentic homestyle Italian food, with authentic Italian hospitality. He is sure to make you feel at home every time!
Alejandro HoyoOctober 26, 2012Come for: the amazing Neapolitan style pizza—thin lightly charred crust, delicate tomato sauce and fresh mozzarella (toppings are quality too)—best in the area. Avoid: everything else on the menu.
Chris MacchiMay 7, 2013Get a table by the front. If the windows are open, you'll be treated to a nice breeze and some occasional subway noise. Try the pizza, it's very thin but very good!
Adil IbrahimFebruary 22, 2014The owner is from Torino, employees are from Sardinia and Rome. You hear "Va Bene", "Certo", and "Arividerci" thrown around. You'll feel just like you are back in Italy, here!
Daniel GiganteNovember 21, 2014Probably the best pizza in this neighborhood. It's thin crust, not really NY style, but still excellent.
Good, new neighborhood Italian spot. The wood fire pizzas are solid and prices are very reasonable.
Tonya MarieJanuary 12, 2012Free mimosa with brunch. Food is good but nothing special. The atmosphere is really nice, good service. Overall nice place to brunch on a lazy weekend.- If they have the braised Lamb shank on special, do yourself a favor and order it. You can thank me later.
Jonathan McFeatAugust 20, 2012Excellent wood fired pizzas, and friendly Italian hospitality. A real find!
Lil KNovember 20, 2010The owner Sandro is amazing! His hospitality combined with the atmosphere, delicious food and BYOB makes this place awesome.- If you want something indulgent but light, I suggest the Bianca pizza and a glass of prosecco. Mmmm
DavidSeptember 19, 2014Penne with eggplant was notably mediocre. The bread was pretty weak too. My friend did not like his Zupetta di Pesce, but says his lasagne Verdi is pretty good.
Cory McCollumMay 27, 2012Not bad, not fantastic. It may just be me, but I feel like the pizza choices need to be more diverse. I think I considered ordering three nearly identical pizzas.
delivery.comJune 26, 2012Super tasty Italian fare! Try the insalata romana.
Bonnie RamonMarch 24, 2011excellent pasta dishes at night! many people don't know about this gem in Haarlem!
Gnocchi, spaghetti bolognese, and prosciutto pizza are all delicious.
New York HabitatApril 10, 2012Delicious affordable pizzas! Take a bite, close your eyes, and envision yourself in Italy!
Allison NicholasFebruary 28, 2012Stay away from the pasta integrale. I've gotten sick every time I've ordered it.

"Best coffee in the area. The lattes are super creamy, and the espresso is never bitter. Big MSM hangout, so if you can get a seat in the teeny space, you'll be surrounded by musicians! :)"
