Had an excellent sidewalk dinner at this Little Italy restaurant. Pleasant and prompt service. The waiter provided good recommendations from the menu and the wine list Appetizer, entree and two glasses of select wine ran nearly sixty dollars with tax and tip, but it was worth it. I would like to go back again, but time did not allow. As... more

My wife and I spent an evening downtown and stayed at the W Hotel a few blocks away. It was an easy walk to Little Italy and we walked up without a reservation and waited about 15 mintues. The space is very small, maybe 30 seats, 40 max. The server was excellent as was the food. The chaf even toured... more

My wife and I recently went to Rome and had really bad luck with food! All of the places we went to were very disappointing. We were really hyped up to taste the great Italian food, but were let down. At most places, we were like, “We could make this at home.” Buon Appetito was way better than any restaurant... more

I ordered the linguine allo scoglia, fantastic.....the red sauce is "Buon Appetito", just ask for a bit more bread to get at all the left over sauce when the... more

Epitomizes the fare in Little Italy. Good old fashioned Italian food. Not too authentic. But a great place to go in Little Italy. Gelatos are good, too. more

My husband and I recently went to Buon Appetito on December 30th. We really enjoyed the food. I had seared scallops on a bed of spinach. My husband had veal piccata. Both of our meals were good. In hindsight, I wish I had ordered a pasta dish because the ones that passed by on the way to other tables looked... more
