Cremini's

I had dinner by myself a few weeks ago (a spur of the moment decision) and was so delighted to have found Cremini’s! The owner was super welcoming, the squid ink pasta was packed with umami and flavor, and La Dolce Vita was playing in the background. It felt super intimate and cozy. I also learned the plants hanging from the ceiling are REAL!! Can’t wait to come back and try other dishes on the menu!

My absolutely favorite Italian restaurant in New York! Not only is the food at Cremini’s amazing, but the atmosphere is extremely welcoming. You will feel like you’re in someone’s home and be treated like family here. Because they specialize in making dishes from the Le Marche region of Italy, there are dishes on the menu here that you won’t find anywhere else. You MUST try the stuffed olives, the fried custard, the pasta le marche, and the cacio pepe. This is an amazing place to bring a date, friends, or guests. Cremini’s is a gem in Brooklyn!

Cremini’s is my favorite (and in my opinion, the best) Italian restaurant in New York. The whole experience feels like you’re eating at someone’s house - the interior is cozy and the couple that owns it work as the server/bartender and the chef. The pasta is second to none. Pictured is the amatriciana spaghetti, the cacio e Pepe, the pesto gnocchi, and the limone e menta spaghetti. I’ve tried almost every other pasta on the menu and they are all delicious - the only problem you’ll have here is how hard it is to decide what to order! Finally, if you don’t end your meal with the olive oil cake, you are making the biggest mistake of your life. It is out of this world good. The best I’ve ever had. And I know I keep saying that - but there’s just no other way to describe it without undersellin

Ever since I found this lovely place a few years ago, it has been me and my family’s absolute favorite! Ricardo’s special cocktail Rixway is my go-to and Elena’s cooking is just phenomenal. Their food, drinks, and service all together make this restaurant so special. Whenever we go, we can feel their love and dedication in everything they prepare. Love this place, Elena and Ricardo so much!

We came here for dinner- we live in the area and just kept meaning to check this place out, and are so glad we finally did! Love the cozy ambiance and vibe!! We left our food/drinks up to Ricardo’s recommendations and were so happy with everything he recommended! Everything had beautiful presentation and flavor! He explained to us how they get they best quality ingredients for everything, and you can absolutely tell! They are truly passionate, knowledgeable and genuine. (And so nice!) We loved our entire experience and look forward to coming back, he was telling us that the menus rotate seasonally so we are excited for the upcoming spring menu! Five stars, highly recommend! We visited again the other day and are always so happy with the people, the vibe, and the food! Thank you again!
