“ Located in the DoubleTree by Hilton in the Financial District, this is a hotel-attached Italian restaurant. It seems small, but I only needed a spot at the bar, as I was staying at the hotel for work. The place had good Italian restaurant vibes, and had that white tablecloth feel, but without seeming pretentious. Sitting at the bar I was served a nice glass of wine, while I perused the menu with the help of the small, battery powered LED lights they have to add to the decor and ambiance. I decided on the risotto with wild mushrooms, as it was a cold night out (and I was near the front door, which lacked the typical tapestry curtains or double entrance like so many places in the northeast have. The service was prompt and attentive, without being overbearing. The risotto was nothing short of amazing. I am normally skeptical of hotel restaurants - they can be hit or miss in my experience. But this food was on point. The risotto had such flavors, and good "stick to the gut" comfort in the creamy rice that was just a perfect texture. ”
“ My wife got the Fettuccini alla Sorrentino and lobster bisque and I got Alfredo. We never stop talking about how good our food was! It was even better with our moscato and bread! The staff was went above and beyond for us. Very romantic dinner. ”
“ I came here just bc it was across the street from my hotel on a work trip so I just sat at the bar. I had a glass of sav blanc which was delicious but the star of the show was the carbonara. I've had carbonara in Italy and this was up there with that in terms of deliciousness. The service at the bar was great as well, very attentive. ”

“ Best cozy Italian Ristorante in the financial district, if not the city. Friendly staff, charming waiters and fresh, delicious Italian dishes. Vast wine menu, helpful sommelier and tasty wines. Ambiance is white tablecloth but quaint, quiet and lovely. Calamari is light golden crispy with a delicate marinara sauce, fresh homemade pastas are outstanding, I had the ravioli. Fresh catch of sea bass was outstanding and salads and soups are fresh and homemade. Tiramisu is the best in the city!! ”
“ Visiting New York for a 12 hours. My family and I visited this restaurant for the first time. The service is top notch! Everyone was attentive. The venue was clean, the presentation at the table was incredible. The servers were kind. We will be back!!!! Stefano! Gracias! ”
“ A classic upscale Italian restaurant with bottles of wine at the table settings to set the stage for an intimate and elegant dining experience. The food was slightly pricey but really worth the money. The calamari was lightly breaded and cooked to perfection served with a mildly sweet marinara sauce. The carpaccio was presented so well you almost don't want to eat it. The vogole was seasoned with olive oil and garlic and not too over powering. The most surprising part to me was the espresso martini. Hands down the best one I have had. Made with strong, delicious real espresso, and not too sweet. Presented with a thick froth and 3 coffee beans. The staff were extremely attentive and accommodating. We sat there for 3 hours eating, talking, and laughing and they allowed us to enjoy the experience without any pressure to speed us through our courses. ”
“ This restaurant is attached to my hotel. I love Italian so had to try it since I have a food and beverage credit to use.. The Food was amazing..delicious and appropriately portioned. The service was quick and the food was hot The ambiance is standard pre war Italian restaurant in NYC but clean and not too busy or loud. Excellent food. ”
