About this business

Excellent restaurant. We visited this restaurant a few years ago and loved the food. Coming back this time we couldn't remember the name or location if this restaurant and spent two days (not the full two days but we walked around the area both nights we were in town) and luckily stumbled upon it. I was surprised with the negative reviews about the service and the food. They were farthest from what we encountered. The staff including the owner himself were very pleasant and very friendly. The food was excellent (I had the ho... read more
Rude, rude owner and waiter, horrible food. Stay away! – After living on the UES for several years, and always passing this place, we decided to try it. Big mistake. All of our food: appetizer, salad and 2 pasta dishes were terrible and overpriced. When we sent one of the entrees back because it was inedible, the waiter argued with us and then they tried to charge us for it. When we told the owner that we couldn't even eat it and sent it back whole, he argued with us as well. He even yelled at us at our table. Service like t... read more
Rudest Staff Ever - Walked Out – Sorry if this is re-post (having computer trouble): I took two out-of-town friends in on a Sunday afternoon at 1pm. A man who must have been the owner treated us so poorly that we walked out without ordering. After rudely asking us what we were doing there, and finally seating us, he screamed at us that the place "wasn't a cafeteria" when we asked if he was serving cappuccino. He then tried to apologize feebly that he thought we weren't going to order food. He made us so uncomfortable that we... read more
Ordinary at best. Average food with bad service. – I have lived on the UES for 4 years and with so many restaruants on the UES, there is no way we would go back to this one. Atmosphere is tired and stuffy. The ceiling has nice bronze colored tiles and know this because had time to study it while waiting an HOUR for my food (which was ordinary at best). I had the fettuccine bolognese. Seriously, you can get a better meal at most any italian restaurant on the UES. The waiters speak bearly any english and ours was less then apo... read more
Very average – The food was very avearge. My group had a range of appetizers and pasta dishes and none stood out as either especially good or especially bad. The service was generally disinterested--not terrible, but also not terribly helpful. The atmosphere is a bit odd, with surrealist paintings clashing badly with the otherwise muted decor. The wine list is very nice, but given the underwhelming overall experience I'd rather buy a bottle of wine from a store and make pasta at home. There are better Italian places in the n... read more
Know what you are getting – I went to order the $15 pasta Bolognese (as recommeded in a previous post), and the thick accented waiter told me- with much gusto- that the Bolognese was a boring standard menu item, and I must order one of the two daily pasta specials... So, I order the tagliatelli with truffles. Although I expected the special to be slightly more expensive than the standard menu items, I was SHOCKED when the bill came and the Tagliatelli dish was a hefty $70! No kidding, $70 for a pasta dish. If I wanted to spe... read more
Four Cheers for Quattro Gatti! – Yes, it's true, it's better to be a regular here. But that's easy to accomplish once you're addicted to the Pasta Bolognese, which my husband and I recommend with the homemade Papardelle pasta. We have been eating at this charming neighborhood spot for two years and have only strayed from our addiction twice - both times being pleased - yet we can't get enough of the Bolognese! Mario was our favorite waiter - he welcomed us by name, like guests in a friend's home - but he is sadly gone and we... read more
only for regulars – Okay, Id rather pour my own wine anyway, and lack of a cooler for the white wine is no big thing. And the abrupt attitude of the waiter could be just considered professional. And I didnt mind that they seemed most attentive to people they knew. And when they brought two veal marsalas instead of one marsala and one veal medallions and the server refused to deal with it, we felt we could live with it. But when we were charged accordingly and politely tried to have the bill adjusted and were told in a nasty ... read more
cute place, excellent food – Even the Italians from Italy vote that the food here is not so commercial and quite similiar to the cuisine they are used to at home and back in Italy, best choice for true diners with a real palate for quality food and ability to distinguish between fresh fish and meat, and commercial volume italian pasta! The food was excellent, very fresh fish and meat, excellent wines, great desserts, nothing is dissapointing int his cute upper east side italian run place, even the service and ambiance is ver... read more
