Cellini Italian Restaurant in Midtown Manhattan

My Favorite Italian Restaurant in Manhattan If you’re looking for an authentic Italian dining experience in Manhattan, look no further than this charming family-owned gem that has been delighting patrons for nearly 30 years. The warmth of the staff, many of whom have been with the restaurant since its inception, creates a welcoming atmosphere where you’re sure to see familiar faces on every visit. The food is nothing short of spectacular, with everything made fresh in-house. My personal favorites are the Gnocchi and Lobster Ravioli, both of which are rich in flavor and expertly crafted. Each dish showcases the restaurant's commitment to quality and tradition. The extensive wine selection is another highlight, with options available by the glass, making it easy to find the perfect pairin

Always a top notch NYC choice for The Best Italian. Especially Linguini with White Clam sauce. Hostess, waiters, and entire staff is EXCELLENT. Quiet, reserved, well priced and great value. Don’t miss it!!!

Today was the third or fourth time that I've dined at Cellini, but it has been about 10 years since I was here the last time. This experience was extremely memorable as the food was absolutely outstanding, way better than I remembered the previous experiences. It was truly one of the best Italian meals that I have ever had. I will 100% be back a lot sooner the next time!

Very cute place. Great food. It small but it was packed which says something. The food was awesome and thw staff was soooo nice and attentive . Found this place randomly because it was near our hotel and was very pleased

So dissatisfied! I made a reservation on OpenTable for 12/4. The restaurant without calling cancel my reservation two weeks after it was confirmed. I called and was told they booked the restaurant for a private event after I made my reservation. Now I don’t expect a restaurant to turn down a private event, but I do expect and think I should have been called explaining the situation. I have eaten many times and the food is good, but I will not go back just because of the attitude. Not even an apology .. terrible.
