Went for lunch. ordered sandwiches (Ray's grinder for me and Brooklyn hero for wife). I wanted a cup of soup (Italian wedding soup. The wedding is in the flavors of ingredients; nothing to do with bride and groom). It was delicious. I was already a believer. Sandwich was served on open faced baguette and hero was also on a baguette. First sandwich I have found in months that was not on flacid or soggy bread. It actually had a crust!!. Service was good and food was excellent. It is a hole-in-the-wall place that reminds me of neighborhood mom and pop places in New York. It isn;t classy like Terre Verdi but more of a fun place where you feel welcome. I won't say any more as I plan on returning many times and don't want to wait in line to get in. by the way, it does have red and white checkered tablecloths and a wine bottle on the table

We waited too long to try this gem of a place. AWESOME! The service was great the wait staff all help each other out so you are never wanting. The food is prepared fresh and it comes out like you are the only one in the dining room. The pasta is perfect each one of us ordered something different. My husband had rigatoni and meatballs, my son had a special and I had linguini with fish. I have to tell you we have not stopped talking about this place in over a week and are anxious to go back!

We found it by accident we had just arrived at our hotel and were quite tired and hungry. Service was friendly and polite, the pizzas were fantastic, very New York. Highly recommend

The owners created a bit more space and it is a little brighter. The food is consistently good and the place does seem like it is right out of NYC. No complaints about the service but you can't share a plate without a charge which for seniors is an irritation.
