Upland

First time here and WOW. The server, Joel was super attentive and nice, I think my water was refilled 9 times, new plates/silverware with each course, very impressed with the service. The food was outstanding, starting with the complimentary bread, so soft and amazing butter. Then the burrata, margarita pizza, cacio &peppe and rigatoni for our table, all so tasty and you can tell it’s made with fresh ingredients and homemade pasta! We didn’t leave a crumb behind. We got the olive oil cake too and they put a candle in it for my bday. To top it off, the atmosphere was intimate with lovely booths yet lively! Can’t wait to return!

We were so excited to try this restaurant after seeing its aesthetic interior on our Instagram feed. The food was just as good and the flavors of each dish were really well-balanced. We tried the pappardelle and the salmon. ALSO there's free bread. It was the fluffiest ever and we devoured the loaf. I was surprised that the miso caramel cheesecake had a thick drizzle of caramel but was somehow not too sweet, and the olive oil cake was also amazing.

I went here for dessert because I couldn’t get in at dinner time. We were 4 people, and the service was very friendly and attentive. The dessert was both excellent and exactly what we needed after a long, rainy day walking around NYC. We got the following: Cheesecake, Limoncello Olive Oil Cake, Affogato, and Decaf Cappuccino. Highly recommend for a post-dinner treat.

Busy active Resturant with mix of regular dinners and business lunch crowd. Buzzing but still comfortable level to talk. Food came out in a timely manner, staff was very accommodating and attentive. Group of 7 and we all truly enjoyed our lunch. Will be back!

*UPDATE* Upland reached out and apologized for everything. They remedied the situation and invited me back to try again. I live in Canada but have a trip to NYC coming up again soon. I plan to come by and give them a try again. Will update again once I give them another try. This restaurant was highly recommended to me and I was excited to try it. We arrived before opening and patiently waited until they opened. The hostess was Incredibly rude and snooty when I informed her that I didn’t have a reservation. She told me if we promised to be quick she could seat us. Which we were. When we were seated the original waiter gave us the dinner menus. After we received our drinks the new waitress realized the mistake and brought us the lunch menu. She was very flippant, wasn’t informative and bar
