Verdello NYC

A wonderful Italian restaurant with an attention to detail. Flavor and plating were superb. The pasta is house made. We also enjoyed an excellent barata pizza and happy hour from 4-6:30 pm on house wine, pizza, most pasta dishes and select cocktails. For dessert we had amazing cannolis with orange zest and pistachios. An intimate, modern setting with excellent service.

This place was positively wonderful. And the staff - so friendly, and so kind!! My wife and I came here from out of town, celebrating our anniversary. We wanted carbonara, and this restaurant made it for us, even tho it was off the menu, just so we could check an experience off our NYC trip wish list. And the food was great too. We’re really happy we went here. Check it out if you’re in the area!

We had an amazing dining experience at Ortomare Ristorante Pizzeria. When me made the reservation over the phone, the service was exceptional, with friendly and attentive staff making us feel welcome. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, creating the perfect setting for a relaxed evening. As for the food, it was absolutely delicious. Each dish was beautifully prepared and full of flavor. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and we will definitely be returning!

Food was great. Got the tortelloni, rigatoni, and the baked eggplant. Delicious. The vibe was romantic, dim, and action packed if you sit next to the pizza maker. The service was lackluster. The server seemed like he didn’t want to seat us because we were dressed too casual. We waited 20 minutes for menus and then just pulled it up from Google photos. Once he noticed we were looking at the menu online, he rushed over with paper menus and rushed us to order. The server had also just smoked a terrible cigarette so you imagine the smell.

Still my favorite family owned Italian restaurant. Good is excellent here. Wood fire pizza and delicious classic Italian dishes. Meatballs are just like nonna makes. Great attentive service. Gets crowded so make sure you have a reservation. It’s worth the trip uptown for some great food.
