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

Delicious pasta dishes – I was nervous about the reviews on bad service, I went on a sunday night and experienced no negative service. The place was very cute, with exposed brick and dim light. The pasta dishes were great, the angliotti stuffed with veal and mushrooms was amazing. The only critique is i was hoping for canolis to be on the dessert menu, but the tiramisu was good. Would definitely go back.

Pretty Patio! – The back patio is very pretty! The tables in the front would be nice to eat outside too I imagine. The food is really good and so is the service. Loved it!

Terrible service – I love the food at this place and have been coming often but had the worst expierence at a aresturant the last time I went. After telling them weeks in advance I was going for a special celebration we waited a half hour for our table, they then gave us the worst table and a waiter who kept telling us they didn't have what was on the menu. He completely forgot about us until he asked if we wanted the check, at which time we were about to leave he caused a huge scene about us not leaving our credit card reci... read more

Nothing Special – I have to say that I've heard lots of things about this place and maybe my expectations were set to high. I did not enjoy the food which was barely edible. The service was ok but the food spoiled everything. I'd give it a second try but I'm not sure I'll be giving a third chance.

Disappointed – This used to be one of my favorite places to eat but no more. While the garden and atmosphere can't be beat, my entree was just plain bad this past Sat night. I ordered a special (papardelle with porcini mushrooms) and the whole dish had no taste and the mushrooms tasted like they had been microwaved-plus they were giant-I could barely fit one in my mouth and they were rubbery and hard to chew. I find it insulting that they served me that dish. At $70 for the meal, I was incredibly annoyed and while my friend'... read more

Disgusting... – By all standards, this so called ephemeral experience I was supposed to encounter never transpired here at Crispo (03/25/08). Perhaps, it was the over-intoxicating aroma of over overcooked (and perhaps spoiled) "sweetbreads" (pancreas) that got my stomach churning. The tableware was dirty. (IE: Something floating in my water glass/ dried specks of food on my fork...) Our waiter seemed like a nice and courteous server, Spanish I believe, but distracted due to a problem going on with a drunken, rude table makin... read more

Awesome all around – I had my birthday party at Crispo on a recent weekend. The food was absolutely phenomenal, the staff was accommodating, and the decor - we were in the garden room next to the fireplace was absolutely great. We had a wonderful time. Highly recommend it!

Definately worth a try if you have never been! – Cripso is one of my favorite restaurants, and I've only been three times. The food is consistently great and the service is good. I make sure to try something new each time I visit and I have yet to be dissappointed. I recommend the Pork Shank, or mabye the Butternut Tortelloni (both were excellent). Also, the Asparugus with Parmigiano is simple but very good. This restaurant has a back room with a fireplace which is where i try to sit whenever I go. I have been recommending t... read more
