    This is a lovely place for dinner. If you're looking for intimate fine dining and top-notch Italian cuisine, then look no further. I asked for a seafood risotto, which wasn't on the menu, and I was beyond satisfied. I stopped in for lunch and fell in love. Now the menu is a little pricey, but it's worth every penny. It's probably one of the best meals I have ever had. I'd avoid this place for happy hr as their business clientele can be a little loud and obnoxious or ask to sit in the back. And I would not miss out on desert as it is an extremely authentic experience. I look forward to dining here again. I warn new foodies about coming here & do not heed their bad reviews. This place is an acquired taste and meant for a refined customer who doesn't mind spending money. Lastly, if you're coming here for restaurant week, it should be for their whole menu.

    This place is amazing. I went here for a Valentine’s Day date and honestly it’s really surprising to see a restaurant keep up with the quality of service on this day but they did just that. The food was great, the truffle ravioli and short ribs were definitely the star of the show but personally I would skip the pistachio cheesecake. Everything else though was fantastic.

    We all had an amazing meal at IL Postino last night. The service was out of this world as even the owner came by our table to walk us through the menu and make recommendations. Everything from the appetizers to the mains and desserts were all excellent! If you're looking for a higher-end Italian meal, this is one of the spots to visit in NYC.

    This is traditional, highest quality Italian cooking with an original flair. I had the special of the evening...black and white spaghetti with scallops of a surpassing sweetness. The dish was finished in a skillet at the table, and looked as lovely as it tasted. Service is splendid. All four of us were delighted with our meals and our wines. The décor is similarly traditional, with the stylish addition of elegant museum-sized photographs of celebrities. Thoroughly enjoyable.

    Great old school Italian with impeccable service. The best part is that they offer to make anything not on the menu. Make reservations. Loved it!

    Excellent restaurant. We have been here a few times in the last couple months and haven't had a disappointing dish. The salads are fresh, appetizers on point, great branzino, perfect steak, good lamb chops, good veal, good chicken parmiagana, good pasta (we always add truffle), impressive wine list and amazing desserts. Elegant atmosphere and exceptional service. Highly recommend.

    Date. 05nov22 Time. 12pm Awesome vibe inside. Went there for business and my wife and I sat in the back by a fireplace. Staff was extremely nice and we got to see the owner who was very kind. We had spinach and cheese ravioli which was amazing. We then had dessert, cannoli was great, cheesecake was light and airy, pistachio gelato was delicious. Price was notably high, but well worth it.
