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

"The Worst" – Crispo is the epitome of a trendy, crowded, new restaurant that will not last more than six months!
Really rude – Good food. Bad attitude. The reservations people were rude; the people at the door were rude; the wait staff was indifferent. Crispo thinks it's hotter stuff than it is.
excellent service / pasta!! – Incredible Service and pasta that redeemed the awful start. we waited almost 40 minutes before getting sat in the crowded smoky bar area. we expected the worst but we were greeted by an enthusiastic waiter who promised us "the best pasta you'll ever have". we took his suggestions and were extremely pleased. we started with a hot proscuitto dish that was simply fabulous, next we had a rigatoni, which delivered on our servers promise. our main course was the sea bass with artichokes and steak. the... read more
Great Spot – I loved Crispo! It had a really nice relaxing atmosphere. The food was excellent! I will definitly recommend it to my friends!
All-Hype – Thoughts: unmemorable food, pushy service, disappointed - overall, I had a bad taste in my mouth when I left about the restaurant and the entire experience. I went with a girlfriend to get a bottle of wine and a few appetizers - both of us were disappointed in their menu and in the wine that was recommended to us. The waitress seemed particularly displeased that we had ordered a bottle of wine at the bar (even though we had a wait).
Crowd pleaser – If you don't mind near-claustrophobic crowds, Crispo is a surefire bet for good, hearty, sophisticated downtown dining without a designer price tag. No wonder you're packed in like sardines: the food is consistently fresh and appealing, and a 3 course dinner for two (with cocktails or wine) will still clock in at less than $75. Servers are overworked but extremely friendly and upbeat. Have been back 3 times, and will continue to do so!
Scrumptious ! – Went there for dinner with 3 of my friends on a Monday night. It was quite busy - a little loud, and seating is close together- but overall I can't say enough...The food was fantastic, the service great, and a wonderful, reasonably priced wine list. Will be back, and will recommend.
just ok – crowded, food above average,but not worth a return trip. The service was good. the menu here is extremely lacking, very little to choose from. This would deserve about a 20 food rating in zagat. veal tortellini pretty good, everything else average, hangar steak not good.
feels like Bennigans – I have no idea why this restaurant was listed as a new and notable restaurant. When we were sat in a booth there was a plastic cup with a half finished soda in it. The food was good, not great. Our waiter acted like he just stepped out of his "how to be a cheesy waiter" class. The decor felt like we could have been anywhere, USA. There are so many unique and spectacular dining experiences in NYC. This one felt unexceptional.
