input: The portions are small but being that the food was so good makes up for that.


input: The service is ok but could be better.


input: Ambiance is barely romantic but management tries.


input: The first time I went, and was completely taken by the live jazz band and atmosphere, I ordered the Lobster Cobb Salad.


input: The food's dazzling flavors overwhelm the palate, truly embracing the beauty of authentic Thai cuisine.


input: What an amazing meal and experience!


input: The Yellowtail was particularly good as well.


input: This place has the best interior I have seen anywhere in the northside of W'burg, and will impress whoever you bring there.


input: Wait staff is blantently unappreciative of your business but its the best pie on the UWS!


input: We a menu that rearely changes,e xcept for one or two specials, the quality and care they put in thier food in evident.


input: The location is perfect.


input: The menu was impressive with selections ranging from a burger, to steak, to escargot.


input: The wine is always good, the tapas are always yummy, especially with the warm pita bread.


input: at night, but it's hard to hear your own conversation with everyone else competing for that same luxury - the music playing in the background is also voluminous.


input: Fish was overdone.


input: The fish is fresh but the variety of fish is nothing out of ordinary.


input: My fish was delicious in an incredible curry sauce.


input: The plain slice is great and if you get toppings, the whole slice is topped with them, not sparsely sprinkled on like some places.


input: The fish was adequate, but inexpertly sliced.


input: Even with the prix fixe pricing, this restaurant is not worth it.


input: skip dessert.


input: If you want a casual neighborhood bistro that has great food and excellent service, this is the place.


input: The service is fantastic.


input: The strong scents coming from the left and right of me negatively affected my taste buds.


input: More important, the sushi rivals the best in Tokyo.


input: one of the best Chicken Tikka Masala.


input: And it all comes at a very reasonable price (congee, noodles, and rice dishes are no more than $3-6 each).


input: The view is spectacular, and the food is great.


input: To be completely fair, the only redeeming factor was the food, which was above average, but couldn't make up for all the other deficiencies of Teodora.


input: Service was also very good.


input: After we got our sashimi order, I could not believe how small the portions were!


input: The corned beef and pastrami are excellent, much less fatty than those big tourist places around Times Square.


input: Frites were delicious if a bit on the thick side.


input: A cheap eat for NYC, but not for dosa.


input: We ate out in the back patio, which is worth it as it's cool and the music is hear well there.


input: They pray to their Food Gods to make them into a good pizza like VT's.


input: Food is excellent.


input: So, a little inconsistency there but either way, both pizzas were really good.


input: I recently went to this restaurant with some co-workers for lunch and had an amazing time.


input: It is kinda nosiy and the tables are close together but it's still a beautiful place to enjoy a nice dinner.


input: Obv caviar is top of the line but the rest of the menu is so diverse it gives you a chance to taste so manydifferent varietys.


input: After my 3rd time the manager remembered me and treated me like an usual customer.


input: One of my favorites though was the Angry Lobster, a cold lobster salad that was magnificent.


input: The vibe is very relaxed and cozy, service was great and the food was excellent!


input: While the place is not a hotspot hangout, the drinks are unique and pack a lot of bang for the buck.


input: I ate here a week ago and found most dishes average at best and too expensive.


input: Not the greatest sushi place, but excellent for a $19.95 all you can eat.


input: Pizza here is consistently good.


input: Whenever you need a Sushi fix, Mizu will be there with quality fish and great service.


input: I had Filet Mignon with garlic mash.


input: The food itself was just ok - nothing spectacular - but the service was awful.


input: Service was devine, oysters where a sensual as they come, and the price can't be beat!!!


input: Terrible, terrible management - deserves to be shut-down.


input: This is a wonderful place on all stand points especially value ofr money.


input: Definite go if you're used to good Indian restaurant food from abroad.


input: THe Pizza and wine were excellent-the service too--but what really MADE this place was the backyard dining area.


input: Pizza and garlic knots are great as well, I order from them quite often and the delivery is always super quick!


input: The steak is good, the fish is good and the sushi was surprisingly great.


input: Decor leaves something to be desired.


input: sandwiches tho pricey are over stuffed - can serve 2 persons easily thus cost effective!


input: Delicate spices, onions, eggs and a kick-ass roti.


input: The atmosphere is nothing special, but it feels like a Sushi establishment in Tokyo.


input: Once for dinner and once for brunch.


input: The food was terrific and the service classy, attentive, without being overbearing.


input: We were seated outside and the waiter spilled red wine and hot tea on myself and my date.


input: The table next to us asked if he crushed the grapes himself when their long overdue bottle of wine finally arrived.


input: even the wine by the glass was good.


input: We've only eaten in the restaurant once, but we have ordered many times for dinner.


input: The last time I went we were seated at a table in a corridor next to the kitchen.


input: Had 1 appetizer, 2 entrees and 2 cokes and the bill was ~$55.00, not including tip.


input: Decor is nice though service can be spotty.


input: Order the panang duck, it's fantastic.


input: Went there and had a combination of different seafood dishes and appetizers.


input: delicious bagels, especially when right out of the oven.


input: If you want Americanized Chinese food with your usual watery, generic white sauce, this is your place.


input: The food is great, service is ok.


input: The service is fine and they allow you to enjoy the view.


input: While there are plenty of places to go for a good corned beef sandwich, Katz's has a charm about it.


input: Best of all is the warm vibe, the owner is super friendly and service is fast.


input: That is a problem since we paid about 20 bucks a dish, and had to order 5 dishes to get a decent taste.


input: This is the best sushi in new york city - hands down.


input: The sushi is also great!


input: Great service, great food.


input: I LOVED THE SHOWS.


input: Saul is pretty good, but definitely not great.


input: The food came out wrong, the waiter was no where to be found and the wine showed up at the end of the meal.


input: Great Indian food and the service is incredible.


input: Even after getting pushed out by the no-class Famous Ray's, Sal has risen again to carry on his father's uncle's legacies with a smile, true love for his community, and let's not forget the Outstanding Pizza!


input: I don't know who they think they are but they have no respect for the residents of the neighborhood ever since they opened their cabaret next door and blasts loud music till three in the morning every weekend during the summer.


input: The sandwhiches are out-of-this world!


input: The food is terrible and overall, I would have to say avoid at all costs.


input: The Halibut was too salty, dessert was so so (don't waste any of your calories) and service was poor.


input: The pesto pizza was excellent, thin-crust pizza with a nice amount of spicy Italian cheese that I'd never heard of before.


input: Forget the rush and the wait and the noise (which isn't actually that bad), I mean please, who goes to a steakhouse to be coddled and romantic?


input: This place is incredibly tiny.


input: The fillings may be unconventional but the dosa batter is definitely authentic and the combinations very tasty.


input: Other apetizers and food


input: The food is authentic Italian - delicious!


input: I had a late dinner at Lucky Stike, a great name for a joint if ever I saw one.


input: My friend's food was also the complete opposite of what it's supposed to taste like (aND look like).


input: Though you will undoubtedly be seated at a table with what seems like barely enough room (no matter what the size of your party), the warm atomosphere is worth the cramped quarters- you'll have fun and forgot about the tight spot you're in.


input: We were in search of food and stumbled on this block of Indian restaurants on East Sixth Street.


input: Best Reuben sandwich ever!


input: Food was OK - fish was cooked well.


input: Lived in Shanghai most of my life and thought the food was comparable to the flagship Green Bo restaurant there.


input: From the terrible service, to the bland food, not to mention the unaccommodating managers, the overall experience was horrible.


input: My husband had the mesclun, salmon, and ice cream and he enjoyed all 3 courses.


input: The workers there also absolutely load the bagel with cream cheese (gets a little messy).


input: The food was great.


input: I would definitely go back for a very special occasion, but not for regular fine dining.


input: The sangria was pretty tasty and good on a hot muggy day.


input: The hot dogs were cold in the middle and the buns were stale.


input: While the $20 entree range is not overly expensive, in New York City, there is definitely better food in that range, and so Sapphire, despite it's lovely atmosphere, will most likely not be a restaurant to which I will return.


input: Then, get ripped on free box wine.


input: Its an excellent place to relax and the food is one of the best in the city of New York.


input: We had crawfish boiled and despite making a mess, it was a ton of fun and quite tasty as well.


input: I recommend getting a reservation even though we saw people seated without one.


input: Went there with my wife and we had to wait for a table even though you could see there many that were empty with not reservation sigh on them.


input: Unfortunately, the food is outstanding, but everything else about this restaurant is the pits.


input: Service was very prompt but slightly rushed.


input: I didn't complain, I liked the atmosphere so much.


input: Plus they made a perfect martini.


input: The chicken pot pie is excpetiona, the cheeseburger huge and delictable, and the service professional wan warm.


input: The wine selection (by the glass and bottle) is wonderful and I always recommend that friends make a reservation if they're going to be in town.


input: This is definitely an  excellent date spot because of the ambiance and on the weekends the  night scene is more than alive.


input: both are very reasonably priced (around $8 for dinner and $5 for lunch), and are delicious and filling.


input: Their whitefish salad is excellent--all whitefish with a little mayo.


input: I fell in love with the egg noodles in the beef broth with shrimp dumplings and slices of BBQ roast pork.


input: It's also attached to Angel's Share, which is a cool, more romantic bar...


input: The freshest, best variety, and the fastest delivery.


input: The staff is accomodating, the ambiance is exciting and yet relaxed, and the food is out of this world!


input: I also ordered for delivery and the restaurant forgot half the order.


input: The photobook menu was a cute touch, certainly helped my group and I pick the fried chicken, pork chop, and noodle dishes that we all ordered.


input: There are other people waiting!


input: I didn't expect to like Nosh as much as I did, but the pastrami on challah sandwich I had was otherworldly, the soups are like Mom's, and the knishes give Yonah Schimmel's a run for its money.


input: all the food was excellent - considering the quality of food in most moderately priced restaurants is mediocre this was slightly more pricey and well worth it.


input: The food was absolutely amazing!!


input: There was a long wait for a table outside, but it was a little too hot in the sun anyway so our insde table was very nice.


input: When we sat, we got great and fast service.


input: The all-Italian staff is warm and engaging from the start.


input: Light, refreshing summer rolls (not fried) remind me of Vietnamese places in Paris.


input: The second you walk through the heavy vault like door, with people anticipating your arrival you get the sense that you are going to have the dining ride of a lifetime.


input: Raga stands out with an interesting fusion of French and Indian cooking.


input: With the exception of our lemon salad that had so much pepper on it that our eyes started watering, the food here was decent, not great.


input: We laughed when he finally offered us a dessert menu and we left a 10 percent tip, which was generous, I feel.


input: Every course was better than the next.


input: Barbecued codfish was gorgeously moist - as if poached - yet the fabulous texture was let down by curiously bland seasoning - a spice rub might have overwhelmed, however herb mix or other sauce would have done much to enhance.


input: They are the best bagels I've had.


input: The ambience is authentic and relaxing and we have always received attentive and prompt service.


input: Stay away from the two specialty rolls on the menu, though- too much avocado and rice will fill you up right quick.


input: First went here to enjoy their garden terrace.


input: They have a huge selection of different cream cheeses and all of their salads are great.


input: All of the pizzas are terrific and the price is even better!


input: Especially liked chicken tikka and the naan, and the dals.


input: It's like they took leftover chicken, poured oil and sprinkled pepper powder over it (the sauce was translucent and red).


input: Other than the crappy service from two individuals, it's great.


input: I wasn't there for the Half-Price Saturday Night Special, but Tuesday Night.


input: The Thali was small, thoroughly unremarkable, and $14.95.


input: The menu may be small, but everything on it is delicious.


input: they were able to squeeze me in at 6 after i called the night before my anniversary for a friday night reservation and told me they'd treat us well for the occasion.


input: being a fan of spicy ethnic foods, indian included, i made friends with this place long ago.


input: The only possible drawback to this last point is that as of the date of this posting, the additional menu items are only written in Chinese.


input: For authentic Thai food, look no further than Toons.


input: Sauce was watery and the food didn't have much flavor.


input: They do cater to American palates, but if you like it hot let them know and they are more than willing to oblige!


input: Not a typical pizza joint, but good for a low key and fairly cheap nice sit down dinner.


input: Highly recommended is the Spicy Fried Clam Rolls and Spider Rolls.


input: I recommend the meatballs and caprese salad and the beans on toast were a wonderful start to the meal!


input: Overall, the best bagel in town.


input: The $300 bill was a bit steep, but the experience was great.


input: While the food was good (certainly no Il Mulino) the service was horrendous.


input: I was in love with Pongsri on 48th, but compared to Suan it is slow in service and overpriced.


input: My wife and I always enjoy the young, not always well trained but nevertheless friendly, staff, all of whom have a story.


input: It is also extremely well priced.


input: we did notice however, that some tables had what looked like pita instead of naan.


input: As far as the service goes, the waitresses were not particularly friendly, but they got the job done.


input: Excellent atmosphere, delicious dishes good and friendly service.


input: I was really disappointed ant wanted to tell everyone not to go eat or even take out food from there.


input: Great food (spinach and corn dumplings and massamman curry), very friendly and no nonsense service and a clean and funky bathroom.


input: I found the variety of the sashimi plate to be satisfying - fresh and yummy.


input: The staff is no nonsense.


input: The sandwiches are dry, tasteless and way overpriced.


input: I highly recommend Cafe St. Bart's for their food, the ambience and wonderful service.


input: It's the perfect restaurant for NY life style, it got cool design, awsome drinks and food and lot's of good looking people eating and hanging at the pink bar...


input: great wine list (italian), good food, service was INITIALLY fine.


input: The food there is so good that even to order out the wait is incredible.


input: And at the conclusion of this culinary nightmare the check was given to our table by knocking over a glass of water.


input: No gimmicks here -- the food speaks for itself in its freshness and preparation.


input: This big draw is the all you can sushi here for $19.95!


input: great place to go for a drink too because they have 100 kinds of beer.


input: All of my co-workers stated that the food was amazing and wondered why they hadn't heard about this place.


input: My husband and I enjoy Sangria.


input: I have eaten there 3-4 times and the food was always good.


input: otherwise, good stuff for late nite eats.


input: I choose to go with one of the special, the braised lamb shank in red wine, which was excellent.


input: The staff has been nice, but they seemed really stressed and the unisex bathroom needs to be cleaned more often.


input: I must warn the reader that the portions sizes are very small (especially the appetizers), so if you plan to eat until you are full and do not intend to order the chef's special tasting menu, prepare to order and pay for an appetizer (1 dish for each person because the portions are not for sharing), a main entree, and the cold udon at the end of the meal.


input: This restaurant is a wonderful place to go many times and it is reasonably priced.


input: We made early dinner reservations and were thoroughly impressed, reminds me of my grandfather, its old school Italian scenery with lots of fun stuff to admire.


input: I have lived in Japan for 7 years and the taste of the food and the feel of the restaurant is like being back in Japan.


input: Despite the fact that the space is large, they've overcrowded the floor with tables.


input: The cream cheeses are out of this world and I love that coffee!!


input: Service is not exactly five star, but thats not really a big deal.


input: Our family never expected such incredible entertainment in a restaurant.


input: Their tuna tartar appetizer is to die for.


input: Nevertheless the food itself is pretty good.


input: Tasty steak, pork loin, the works.


input: instead ordered an ice cold beer which to me works with indian.


input: We were looking forward to nice glass of Sangria when we arrived.


input: if you're looking for perfect traditional sushi, go here - if you're looking for interesting combinations, try sushi of gari's (east side).


input: Pick a bagel has the best bagels in the city.


input: We had the pot-stickers which were great and a tempura dish that was great.


input: But, they were too big for the bun.


input: It looked like shredded cheese partly done - still in strips.


input: Try the green curry!!!


input: Also, if you don't want to sit at a certain table, you don't have to!


input: You are paying for the atmosphere, which is nice, but can be had in numerous places in Bay Ridge.


input: Service was on par but not wonderful.


input: The sushi was awful!


input: Consequently, their burgers fell apart in their hands and made such a mess that they did'nt feel like finishing them.


input: A cool place to hang with your friends for a couple of healthy drinks and desserts.


input: Their coffee is quite good too!


input: For the price, you cannot eat this well in Manhattan.


input: I like Mamoun's food as well, but side by side, Kati Rolls just produce tastier food hands down.


input: The food however, is what one might expect.


input: The owner is very friendly and a great guy, go try his pizza, you'll like it!


input: They showed up 15 minutes after the tuna melt.


input: This place has realy fresh sushi and a nice large menu of Japanese classic cuisine.


input: Not only was the food outstanding, but the little 'perks' were great.


input: Our friendly server made great food suggestions and also sent both the sommelier and the fromager to the table to help suggest different pairings for wine and cheese.


input: So, the menu is written in chalk above your head and it all sounds delicious.


input: But for whatever reason, prices are about twice as high.


input: First of all, this place is *not* romantic, as claimed by Citysearch's editorial review.


input: The decor is very simple but comfortable.


input: If you can handle that, it's a great place for a business dinner, fun with friends or simply a table for 2.


input: When family came in he gave them apps to test their palets, and then ordered for them.


input: In reality (to maximize potential diners) they were still taking phone reservations and reallocating tables of those waiting in the lobby.


input: Baluchi's has solid food and a nice decor at reasonable prices.


input: While the ambiance and atmosphere were great, the food and service could have been a lot better.


input: I was back-to-back with the diner at the table behind me and wait staff had to hoist trays over our heads as they squeezed past us again and again.


input: The servers give you some sample slices of your order while you wait (shortly I might add).


input: Try the hot dogs too, they're snappy and delicious.


input: Great roofdeck, nice group of 30 somethings, but no music, kind of quiet.


input: Coming from Boston this place is like Emma's Pizza in Kendall Square in Cambridge (although they have more funky toppings!)


input: The service is descent even when this small place is packed.


input: The pizza is yummy and I like the atmoshpere.


input: Good, because hey, it's more food, but bad because dim sum is supposed to be smaller portions so you can try out more dishes and smaller so that each dish is cheap.


input: VT is what baby pizzas hope to be when they grow up.


input: Best dish is nori-wrapped tuna.


input: The food was just awful, ATROCIOUS actually.


input: While the room is not particularly comfortable, once you're seated you'll forget about everything except what's on your plate.


input: Really cool stauff inside.


input: The dinner was ok, nothing I would have again.


input: they didn't disappoint, service from the second i arrived at the door was extremely pleasant and attentive with almost one server per table.


input: Really though, where's the seasoning?


input: The food was amazing, and the service was prompt and helpful, but not over-bearing or rushed.


input: The spicy tuna roll was unusually good and the rock shrimp tempura was awesome, great appetizer to share!


input: Be sure to try the seasonal, and always delicious, specials.


input: Great vibe, lots of people.


input: In addition, the food is very good and the prices are reasonable.


input: With the great variety on the menu , I eat here often and never get bored .


input: Our favorite meal is a pesto pizza, the house salad, and a good bottle of wine.


input: Given the incredible architecture surrounding it, this place has no character.


input: Could be pricey without a prix fixe meal.


input: The makhani was OK --the korma was bland.


input: My friend got the mushroom pizza which tasted better.


input: However, they've got the most amazing pastrami and the soups hit the spot.


input: Good spreads, great beverage selections and bagels really tasty.


input: They are served with a free appetizer and the portions are perfect for lunch.


input: The signs, the specials menus, food, and even all the waitstaff are ALL TOTALLY Japanese.


input: In an area sadly lacking in decent Thai food, this is one of the best spots.


input: Another plus is most of the entrees are approx.


input: The whole set up is truly unprofessional and I wish Cafe Noir would get some good staff, because despite the current one this is a great place.


input: Even better, they know how to cook French classics like Steak au Poivre and Onglet without burning it to death or overcooking it.


input: The Italian food has flavor (that can be sort of surprising on the UES), and the service turns from a nightmare to attentive,they sort of remind me of the NY Yankees of the late 90's, no matter how bad it look, you knew that there was a rally just around the corner...


input: The place wasn't too hard to find, but it was kind of packed, as soon as my boyfriend and I got our food, the line reached the door.


input: I particularly love their yellowfun tuna and their mussel selection.


input: I have never had cheescake like this.


input: I had the duck breast special on my last visit and it was incredible.


input: The only weird thing was if we got a bottle, the waitress would have simply multiplied the glass price X4, which makes no sense whatsoever.


input: My wife and I also enjoyed the spinach, the Shanghai low mein, and other attractions.


input: I love when restaurants think using fancy expensive ingrediants makes the food fine cuisine, even with no idea how to use them.


input: It was nice and fresh, but I can't give it high scores on being authentic thai.


input: good music, great food, speedy service affordable prices.


input: Service is not what one would expect from a joint in this price category.


input: The lox is always fresh too.


input: It was like the servers forgot that they actually worked there and instead wanted to hang out and be cool.


input: Thius is a must for anyone who loves Shabu-Shabu.


input: From the complimentary chef app of a delicate butternut squash ravioli in a delicious truffle sauce to an amazing buttery and tender langostine entree to a dessert that I can't remember because of the fabulous Cakebread Cabernet we were drinking -- the whole evening was amazing.


input: They wouldnt even let me finish my glass of wine before offering another.


input: Its location is good and the fact that Hutner College is near and their prices are very reasonable, makes students go back to Suan again and again.


input: The lobster sandwich is good and the spaghetti with Scallops and Shrimp is great.


input: Prices are higher to dine in and their chicken tikka marsala is quite good.


input: Mizu is home to creative and unique rolls not to found anywhere else.


input: The best burger I have had in the Village.


input: Little Tonino's is just awesome, our favorite delivery place in Kennsington, honestly the best Gnochi I have ever had!


input: Turned out there was full service upstairs and sat down.


input: This is the only Thai place I go too in NYC, it's wonderful, and live relaxed Jazz on certain nights.


input: I think I've had some the best meals of my life at minnow.


input: The menu changed, portions were even smaller than before, a lentil dish was salty beyond edibility, a basmati rice dish lacked flavor.


input: We were on our way back to NJ, and since I am in NY, we figured why not grab some food?


input: When asked about how a certain dish was prepared in comparison to a similar at other thai restaurants, he replied this is not Mcdonald's, every place makes things differently While it is understandable that every place is indeed different, there was not a need to be uncourteous to customers and downright rude.


input: Bartender was unable to tear himself away from friends at bar.


input: Prices too high for this cramped and unappealing resturant.


input: It might have been a little too spicy for my friend, which you can couteract with eat more rice and keeping water on hand.


input: Besides, when you have bad service, that's less money you have to tip.


input: If you're looking for a great meal at a decent price, go to Del Frisco's!


input: One of us actually liked the expresso - that's it.


input: The most annoying thing, though, is the fact that the servers seem to be trained to drive revenue.


input: It's constantly open, catering to the Pakistani cabbies lined up on Crosby St., so there's more turnover with the food than you'd expect (i.e., surprisingly fresh).


input: I will recommend Scopa to all of my friends for a place to go for wonderful Italian food.


input: Oh, but wait, we were out of drinks (which were also delightfully overpriced).


input: at taj, vegetarians can rejoice-all the dishes are manna from heaven.


input: Its worth the wait though.


input: bottles of wine are cheap and good.


input: We had the scallops as an appetizer and they were delicious and the sauce was wonderful.


input: Three of us arrived for dinner about 5:30 on a week night without reservations.


input: We always have a delicious meal and always leave feeling satisfied.


input: I have been about 4 times and have always had a great meal.


input: Well, their deliveries take for ever and the food is usually cold.


input: The waitress suggested glasses of wine that went very well with the food.


input: This is an amazing place to try some roti rolls.


input: Friendly staff that actually lets you enjoy your meal and the company you're with.


input: And even with it's Pub atmosphere they were great to my kids too!


input: We went to eat at the Jekyll and Hyde restaurant on Friday night and really enjoyed the fun atmosphere and good food.


input: Delicious food, excellent service, and a pretty atmosphere make this a great choice for dinner and the $5.99 lunch buffet makes it an even better choice for lunch!


input: The wine list is also really nice.


input: No you're going to go back because the food was good.


input: The place is so cool and the service is prompt and curtious.


input: We've never had any problems with the staff but maybe we've been lucky?


input: All the money went into the interior decoration, none of it went to the chefs.


input: Sure, the setting is nice.


input: For the location, the prices are very reasonable.


input: Yes, the prices are high, but I felt it was worth it.


input: Tuk Tuk is one of those comfortable neighborhood joints where you know you will always have a good meal at a fair price.


input: Stick to dimsum, not super overpriced noodles.


input: Decor is minimalist and clean - nothing to distract or commend.


input: The entire dining experience was wonderful!


input: You can certainly find restaurants that offer a superior fine dining experience, but for superb food at reasonable prices, La Villa can't be beat.


input: The food was exceptional.


input: And I say snacking because it really is not set up to be a proper dinner.


input: The rest of the menu is limited by everything is good eats.


input: My GF and I still choose to eat there a lot because of diverse cocktails, the chill decor, and the decent sushi.


input: The place is small and cramped but the food is fantastic.


input: This restaurant used to be our regular Thursday night dinner location.


input: I come from a family of pizzeria owners, and I'm almost ashamed to say that the pizza in Fornino's blows my families receipies away.


input: The photos of the restaurant in its web site are way better than the real look.


input: good selection of wines ranging from affordable to high end.


input: We were very surprised by how good the food was on our first visit here on a Sunday night.


input: The place itself is beautiful the bar scene seems to be happening.


input: Largest and freshest pieces of sushi, and delicious!


input: My fiance took me to Scopa last week for my birthday and I couldn't believe the food.


input: When my dessert came, there was a candle in it - not because anyone asked for one - but because the waiter must have seen me opening my birthday card and gift, and said he knew it was a special occassion of some sort.


input: The staff ignored my friends and I the entire time we were there.


input: I don't like Indian food too much and this was delicious, however you want to factor that into the equation.


input: The food was great and the service was even better.


input: I went here with a friend on a whim, we went someplace else first and couldn't get a table.


input: There's something smooth about sipping sake upper east side style.


input: Delicious food at a great price but do not go here on a cold day and sit by the front door.


input: I went at 6:00 PM specifically for the pre-theater menu ($19.95 for roasted tomato soup with chevre, steak frites, creme brulee) and it was marvelous.


input: this little place has a cute interior decor and affordable city prices.


input: My biggest complaint was the un-tasty food although presented well.


input: I am reluctant to write because I would not want my jem of a pizza place to become overcrowded.


input: There is usually a wait but it is well worth it.


input: The seating was if they were trying to get the maximum amount of people into the restaurant, so be nice to your neighbor when you dine here.


input: The food was very good, a great deal, and the place its self was great.


input: They couldn't even make a salad that was appealing.


input: There is also very limited seating and there can be a substantial wait in getting food at peak times.

input: Check it out, it won't hurt your stomach or your wallet.


input: The food is so cheap and the waiters are nice.


input: We asked to be moved (which took half an hour), and then were seated in a high traffic area in the back, even though the rest of the room was practically empty.


input: The ingredients taste fresher, the crust is thinner and crispier, the slice is less oily, and it's never burnt like it occasionally is at Joe's.
