Based on reviews on nymag.com, I was excited to try this place with my boyfriend. I was disappointed by the dishes we ordered--perhaps I was expecting more. The food is delicious, but not breath takingly delicious--there are plenty of NYC restaurants that are cheaper for the same flavor.
Bread comes with a tomato ragu and marscapone cheese--very delicious! My favorite part of the meal.
I ordered:
Pizza Bianca--spinach and cheese white pizza
Risotto with Mushrooms
--mushrooms were delicious, the risotto was good, but there was so much of it, the flavor wasn't as powerful (and less exciting to eat)
The ambiance is very nice and romantic. You can see the kitchen staff work the brick oven and there are many wines on display.
