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

Christmas Eve would have been better spent with the Grinch... – I was anticipating my return to Crispo with a 9pm Christmas Eve reservation. (Mistake.) We arrived on time and were sent to the bar despite the several open tables; had I not gone to the hostess station a half hour later to check on my table, I don't think we would have been seated. The hostess seemed dumbfounded and was 'wondering if we were showing up for the reservation'. (Anybody home?) None the less, we were determined to enjoy dinner. But, no bread, no wat... read more
Where is my favorite waiter? – Staff turnover due to spotty management and ownership seem to be the down fall of this potentially amazing place! Having been a long time regular, I have had the opportunity to see the waitstaff interact with management, and it doesn't seem plesant. The person affected is me, the customer, my all time favorite waiter is no longer there, and those I am now served by are no where near as knowledgeable as some of the long term employees that they seem to lose. The food may be great, but with servi... read more
Terrible experience – After frequenting Crispo quite often over numerous years, last night will be the last and final time. While ordering a bottle of wine with my also twenty-five year old friend, we were carded by the waitress and then again five minutes later by the manager- made out to be a complete spectical and then told that he did not believe the state issued drivers licenses (NY and NJ) were real. When my friend lowered herself to offer to show backup- he refused. Failure to recognize returning clientele is unfortun... read more
Love Crispo – I have been to crispo multiple times and LOVE this place. The atmosphere is nice, not great but the food is to DIE for. I have never sampled anythimg that has not been extremely good. The staff is always great, whether they're busy or not. I have dined with a large group here and on a date. Service was great either way. They have specialty cocktails and the crispo sparkler is wonderful. If you are considering dining at Crispo... make reservations now! You won't be disappointed.
nice place, good food and great service ! – Crispo ti amo ! A great place for dinner in a festive atmosphere, Crispo delivers excellent food and it won't cost you a fortune. Super friendly staff, casual, warm and welcoming, Crispo offers simplicity with quality. The perfect spot for a date, meet friends or have a party, Crispo will accomodate you. And don't forget the garden, a hidden gem in the heart of the city.
Average dining experience – went there for a birthday event so we had a huge table for 15 people. they put us in a private room which made the night a bit more cozy and intimate rather than being in the main dining hall which was extremely loud to hold down a coversation. we got our entrees and while the food was tasty, it was a bit salty. the best part was the dessert where I had the creme brulee with chocolate cream and it was delicious. overall, our waittress was very polite and not annoying checking up on us every so oft... read more
CRISPO-licious!! – Okay, get ready city searchers, I am about to make a bold statement. Dare I say it, this is probably one of the best Italian places in Manhattan. No need for a lengthy review, it's simple--JUST TRY IT. The spaghetti & meatballs are superb....the ravioli simply melts in your mouth. Before you know it, you are scraping your plate, wondering how you devoured the entire entree in minutes. Needless to say, this restaurant will definitely be in my monthly rotation. If possible, try to sit in the garden area (esp... read more
Surprisingly Good – Very pleased with our meal at Crispo. The Branzino was perfect; flavorful, moist and deboned properly. Veal was tender and perfectly portioned. Looking forward to returning and trying some of their other dishes.
Great food, nice ambience – This restaurant has amazing food. I have been here for a romantic dinner as well as for a large party, and it is great either way. The mozzarella is the freshest I have ever had, and everyone thought their dishes were amazing (hangar steak, veal parmesan, spaghetti & meatballs). They have a private room (which is more like an alcove, but private nonetheless) for groups of 8-10 people, which is absolutely perfect. If you are coming with a group of that size, I strongly recommend that room (called t... read more
