About this business

Tucked just below street level, this low-lit Italian-American restaurant boasts a Mediterranean vibe, not to mention a warm bonhomie not usually found along bustling 14th Street. Inside, you'll find low ceilings crossed by dark wood beams and brick walls adorned with artwork. Wood-framed windows open up to a little jewel box terrazzo and deep in the rear, a small semi-open kitchen completes the rustic look. The menu at Crispo offers a solid range of traditional entrées, along with a nice antipasto selection and handfu... read more

Sit back and enjoy! – Loved it. Filled with great atmosphere, an unpretentious chic-y crowd, great lighting and fabulous food. Great wine list - either by the glass or bottle. Appetizer through dessert was tasty and enjoyable. Our server was knowledgeable and helpful with his suggestions. I felt like any moment Martin Scorsese could walk through the door.

Worth trying – The food is pretty good, the place is nice looking and comfortable and the prices are about as reasonable as you could possibly ask for.

Next Celebrity Chef – Frank Crispo is brilliant. His food is amazing. The best appetizers in New York. Entree's are not as good as the appetizes, but are close. The service is a little raw, but they are extremely pleasant and obviously trying their best. At new restaurants this often happens. The ambiance is excellent and everything in the restaurant has a story. I have been back 3 times and each time gets better. I strongly recommend Crispo's

I'll give you the real down lo on Crispo – Crispo sounded great from the description that was written about the restaurant. We were seated prompty as we had a reservations, but then again, it was early. I ordered a coke and sent it back after it was flat and then my gingerale was flat so I sent that back....needless to say, I settled for water. My fiance and I both ordered fish and both were as bland and uninteresting as any can be. To top it all off, we were sitting in the front where they had open ceiling to floor windows ... read more

Mixture of Candela & Pastis! – Loved it.... looks great from the outside and very cozy & intimate from the inside! Being from Italy I cant say it's really "italian" food...... but whatever it was, was great! It reminded me decore wise of Pastis & Candela. It was rather loud but that did not bother me.. as it added charm to the cozy & intimate room. I owuld go back indeed!

Crispo Perfecto! – Was greeted and seated with no attitude from the host and hostess, despite no reservation. Attentive service from the waiter who kept returning to make sure everything was okay, in a completely unannoying way. The food was delicious, particularly the spaghetti carbonara, served in a "novel" way (for me). And a meaty grilled portabella. And the prices won't kill you.

Crisp-ohhhh.. a pefect description – I am extremely impressed with Crispo. The food is fabulous. The prociutto with the black mission figs and parmesan cheese is a wonderful first course as well as the perfectly tender calamari with the slightly spicy marina. The skate with rosemary and mandarin was cooked to a perfect med rare temp. Romantic atmosphere with a couple of private rooms and unpretentious winelist and well educated staff. I love Crispo and highly recommend it!
