Casa Limone

The restaurant has a warm, inviting atmosphere, beautifully adorned with lemon accents and tasteful artwork. The downstairs area houses the bar and kitchen, while upstairs offers a cozy dining space decorated with vibrant flowers.The meal began with a delicious serving of Burrata Pugliese, accompanied by fresh cherry tomatoes and drizzled with their exceptional olive oil--absolutely delightful! For the mains, I chose the Regina Margherita, a solid choice, and the Pasta Tartufata, which was creamy and flavorful, though a bit light on the truffles. Overall, the food was excellent, and I'd definitely return to explore more of their pizzas and pastas.

I've never had an eggplant Parmesan so delicious! The sauce was sublime! Surroundings so comfortable and our server was delightful and attentive. My partner's meatballs were likewise deluged in that incredible sauce, and the wine was a perfect pairing ( we finished the bottle!). Another great meal in NYC! We'll be back!

Ambiance of the restaurant is really lovely. Very well designed and at dinner time, the lighting and mood of everything is just right. I find it strange that they only have a restroom in the basement. Having been seated on the 2nd floor, it was a long trek. This may be typical, but it is personally the first time I've encountered such a layout.I opted for the 3-course dinner menu. I ordered the salmon, but they brought out the butternut soup, but I wasn't really opposed to it. Happy I had it! It was probably favorite dish in the meal. Each spoonful had a different and exciting flavor profile. I followed up with the braised beef which comes with polenta. It was alright. Not bad, not outstanding. I ended the meal with their lemon cake, which is topped with meringue. It was also alright. As a sweet treat connoisseur (if I do say so myself) it's not something I've thought back to or would get again. All in all, a pretty average experience at Casa Limone

I'm very conflicted with this review - since there were both phenomenal and pretty poor aspects of my dining experience, and determining which holds more weight isn't easy. We'll start with the easiest plus - the decor of the restaurant is beautiful - with such vibrant colors. As for the food - the bread that started the meal was delicious, although we wish we had more - and the house olive oil is phenomenal. We had a margherita pizza to start, which was rather bland and could have used something more flavorful in the sauce - but the crust dipped in the olive oil was delicious. For mains, we both had the fusilli siciliano al pomodoro - which was a clear five star dish and one of the best pasta dishes I've ever had - cooked to perfection, delicious sauce and tasty eggplant, and a large portion. Where the restaurant fell short was service. It took more than 30 mins after we finished our pizza to receive our mains, and though the staff came over a couple times to apologize once they realized the food was taking a long time, that didn't do anything to expedite things. We were ready to overlook that because of how good the food was, until it took another 12 minutes from us asking for the dessert menu to have it brought over to us. For a restaurant in the theater district, being mindful of service time before evening shows it's important, something Casa Limone fell short at.

TikTok sent us here, and Casa Limone definitely delivered on the vibes. Think vibrant floral walls, unique furniture, and plates so pretty they deserve their own Instagram post. But did the food live up to the hype? Calamari Fritti: Crispy, crunchy perfection with a light batter. The tartare sauce? Tangy and delish. Quality over quantity definitely applies here, as the portion size, while small, was perfection.Quattro Formaggi: Thin-crust cheesy goodness. Nailed it!Orecchiette alla Pugliese: This one was a miss for us.  The sauce was sadly watery and there was barley any Italian sausage pieces. This Pugliese classic deserved so much better Still, Casa Limone is a fun escape from the Midtown grind, and we can definitely see it being a go-to for business lunches. Would we go back? Maybe for drinks and apps in that gorgeous space, but we'll probably explore other options for our next Italian adventure.

Came here after a broadway show. It's close to the theater district. They start you off with olives, bread and anchovies and olive oil. I started with the Runta di Carro alla Puttanesca. Had hand crafted paste Taggiasca , olives, capers, anchovies, basil and ricotta. The meal was delicious. This is a large restaurant with two floors. Service was quick and efficient, along with a friendly and knowledgeable staff.I am changing my rating due to the fact that the person I had dinner with , got food poisoning from her meal.

Beautiful decor and lovely ambiance for an intimate dinner. Complimentary olives & sundried tomatoes plus a basket of fresh focaccia bread. The table is stocked with extra virgin olive oil that you can drizzle over the bread and olives. I had the mesclun salad, split pea soup and shared the ricotta filled ravioli (forgot to photograph but all were very good choices). They have decadent desserts to choose from which are made fresh.

Came here on a Wednesday after work and was able to grab a seat at the bar. Went for the "Busiate Siciliana al Pomodoro" which was a pasta with eggplant. For the affordable price of $26, I got a huge plate of pasta that lasted for two meals. It was flavorful, the pasta was cooked to perfection, and the service was fast. Definitely has more of a finance bro/businessman crowd in there but all the staff were welcoming. Worth trying it out if you're around!

Great arugula salad and pizza! Very well priced- highly recommend Fresh olive oil and we had the eggplant pizza which was just perfect.

Pricey and small portions.Spent nearly $400 for the four of us with appetizers, entree, dessert and I was still hungry.
