Such a lovely and vibrant restaurant with a equally vibrant and lovely chef and owner at the helm. While I'm sure the rest of the menu is delicious, I think the play is doing the chef's 5 course option. Not only do you get amazing food, but you get to see Chef Maurizio's personality and thoughtfulness in every dish he brings out. The fact he was able to accommodate someone heavily lactose intolerant when it comes to Italian food speaks for itself I think. Much thanks to Sofia (I believe that was our lovely server's name) for being so attentive. We'll be back again (and again and again...)
I was on a family trip in NYC this week and we stopped in for a quick drink after dinner. I wish we would have saved some room to try the food when we came in! Everything looked and smelled amazing.
Chef Maurizio was so warm and welcoming. His wife was behind the bar and made the best espresso martini any of us ever had. We were informed that they brew their own coffee and we could taste the difference. We were seated by a beautiful painting of Chef Maurizio, which was done by one of his close friends. It was so nice of him to share that story with us.
We told Chef Maurizio that we would be back for dinner on Wednesday but unfortunately ended up busy throughout the rest of the trip. Although we didn’t stay for long and my sister had to rush out to make her flight, this is a special place and we will make it a priority to come back for dinner next time we are in NYC.
We went to reminisce our childhood in mulberry street decided to walk around and we're looking for a spot to eat. We went inside and was greeted by Maurizio with a big smile and Italian accent . It was about 230 pm we absolutely love authentic Italian food so we gave it a try. It was the best decision! From us entering the restaurant until we left the experience was excellent. He was Making sure we were attended too the cocktails were amazing. We had Caesar salad , calamari and chicken parmigiana. We will definitely be back ! He made us feel like welcomed and even sat down and spoke to us for a few . Definitely one of a kind place and original.
