The reason I don't want to brush my teeth – I can still taste the pine nuts and lemon vinaigrette from the spinach salad with feta cheese, tomatoes and olives. I can still feel the slight slick of grease from the chunks of lamb sausage on the artisanal thin-crust pizza with confit tomato, rapini, pecorino, and asiago. And if I close my eyes, I can still detect a hint of the truffle oil that caressed the small plate of crispy fingerling potatoes. It doesn't matter that I had to park several blocks north of Gjelina on Abbot Ki... read more

Favorite new place! – Love this place. Just found it after seeing Nik across the street at Trim. She suggested it while i got my hair colored and what a treat this place is. The decor is modern but comfortable and warm. I ordered the muscles with chorizo and OMG! Its a large order too. My bf had the Hanger steak. It melted in our mouths. We also shared the Burrata cheese salad with roasted pears. Delish. The GM Robert was very friendly and bought us a glass of wine while we waited. Highly recommend to you all.

Yummy and Robert Downey Jr. – While we waited i chatted with one of my favorite actors who apparently goes there all the time now that he lives in Venice...Robert Downey Jr. Yay. My trip to this eatery was already worth it. We ate, drank and rubbed shoulders with the stars. All great.

best dining – I love coming here with my girl friends and grabbing a glass of wine. I really enjoy the margherita pizza and the butterscotch dessert. I was luck enough to get a celebrity sighting along with the eye candy staff.

they completely lost our reservation – We made a reservation almost 2 weeks prior to the Wednesday night we planned on coming in. When we arrived the hostess said we were not on the reservation list and they were all booked up and the wait would have been 90 mins for a table. How ridiculous! For a place so nice and expensive I expect them to have integrity when honoring reservations made by phone. What a waste of time!

Will Not Be Back – We will not be back! My husband and I have to agree with some of the other reviews. The hostess was rude, really had an attitude problem. Our waitress couldn't have cared less about waiting on us. It took 45 minutes to get our food and then it wasn’t right. This restaurant needs a complete make over when it comes to their service. In fairness the food was good once they got it right. But the price, the service and rudeness isn't worth it.
