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

Good but too salty – We had 3 very different pasta dishes but unfortunately, all of them were way too salty. Rich but salty. Almost felt that the salt was hiding the possibility of tainted food since we had the blackout the week earlier. Put it this way, the food didn't digest very well.

mouth watering! – i love this new spot--but i have only one complaint: when i ordered the prosciutto special with peaches, there was not enough prosciutto--i know this b/c i had it with melon last time and the serving was generous. anyway, the octopus was incredible, well cooked with the potatoes and large caper garnish. perfect. i had the salmon with corn and BACON (i can call it pancetta if you insist) and it was fabulous. the lambchops with goat cheese polenta were also really great. i orderd a glass of pinot noir from an... read more

Great food! – I had no expectations - just passing by and decided to eat here. The food was unbelievably amazing - from appetizer to main course to dessert. The waiter was polite and attentive. I was most impressed with how fantastic the food was in correlation with the modest price-range - a total bargain in my book.

Consistently Good Food – Been to Crispo twice and both times the food has been very good. The wait to be seated (got seated close to 10pm for an 8:30pm reservation for 2) the first time I went was a bit excessive but the food turned out to be worth the wait. Enjoy!

yummy carbonara – went for the second time on monday night. all the prosciutto plates are delicious. the spaghetti carbonara was absolutely sublime! you can even order it as an appetizer and then order an entree. prices are very reasonable. wine list is average. the only con was the wait staff. our waiter said and did all the things he was supposed to but his attitude ruined his service rating. he just didn't seem to care or maybe he was bored. overall, i enjoyed both times i went. i would definitely go back.

Perfect service, wonderful food – We went for a late dinner on a Monday night - the atmosphere was smooth and warm and the service was friendly and accurate without being intrusive. Then the food arrived - sensational! I would not hesitate to recommend Crispo and there's no doubt we're going back.

Fantastic! – What more can I say? My fiancee and I had 2 of the specials and they were sooooooo tasty, both of us finished them in about 10 minutes! We had a wonderful bottle of wine that complimented the meal very well and I had the Creme Brulee for dessert. I thought that the total bill was very reasonable for all that we had and the ambiance was just great. It gets full pretty quickly, even during the week, so I suggest making dinner reservations early.

crispo at your dispo – Trendy 14th street restaurant. Attractive space but you always feel like you're in a basement. The staff is friendly and effficient. The food is moderately priced. The food is creative and sometimes marvelous, sometimes what-were-they-thinking? I've gone back many times.

Not Impressed – I saw Crispo as a candidate for best new restaurant in Time Out New York so I thought I would give it a try. The crowd was far from trendy and the food was okay, nothing special. The music was terrible. Crispo is a nice restaurant to go to with your college buddies if you live in the area, but nowhere near the best new restaurant in New York.
