[Rounded up from 3.5] a friend and I decided to stop by, as we have passed by a few times. We got the Capricciosa Pizza and Fettuccine Bolognese to share. The pizza was just ok, but the pasta was delicious. The pasta was cooked to my preference (nicely al dente), and the sauce was good. We also got some cocktails. I was a bit taken aback by the Espresso Martini, but I think that's on me for not catching that the cocktail includes Bailey's. It was empty when we arrived, but service was attentive and we got our food fairly quickly. All in all, not a bad spot to get some decent Italian food.

Came here before a show nearby to grab dinner. My friend and I walked in for dinner around 5:45 and it wasn't busy so we were able to grab a table. The space had about 10 tables with a long bar. We ordered the fettuccine bolognese and the Capricciosa Pizza. The portion size of the pasta is on the small side and the pizza is medium size. Overall the meal left us full so it was just a good amount. The pizza could have used a bit more seasoning but overall the food was good . The wait staff was nice as well. A good option if you're in the area but a bit on the pricey side.

Yum, they have delicious food. We ordered pizza, pasta, fries, meatballs, and serve soft bread with pesto oil. We came in before our circle line cruise wanting to kill an hour and eat lunch before circling NY for 2.5 hours. Everything is freshly made, the pizza oven is beautiful, the staff are attentive and polite, and the ambiance is nice-- cozy and intimate. The pizza was the star of the show, in my opinion --Mom and I ordered a Margherita pizza and requested onions, mushrooms, and zucchini and it was yummy. The crust is chewy yet cooked thoroughly with a nice texture. The meatballs were delicious, and I loved the red sauce. Truffle fries were yummy, pasta carbonara was hearty-- husband polished it off. Yum, yum, yum!

Inside Hudson Yards at Little Spain. Different Spanish offerings. You can order food from multiple kiosks and grab a table. It's busy though, and tables are hard to get. You can also sit at the at some of the various eateries. The ambiance is fun and lively like a street fair but inside.

I was there with their Plusd voucher , the food and service was ok , there is an orientate fee on the bill , both antree were a salty, octopus was a littler under cook . Tiramisu was tasty. Antree is over priced .

Omg. Just had a delivery. I live 2 blocks away and pass the place frequently. I never see it busy but figured, why not try- I know people who have been and said it's ok. Probably should have sensed my original instincts, which was- always empty-- must not be so great!!! Probably the Worst, Most Tasteless Cavatelli Abruzzese, ricotta cavatelli with sausage & brocolli rape in a white wine sauce EVER!!! Major disappointment!!! :(

I'm really torn on this one. I really wanted to like this place and was expecting it to be sensational given some of the reviews I read on here, which is one of the reasons we went.But both times (and one take out) were underwhelming. Service wise, it was good. Our server was nice; although we were the only table in there the night we went. The food was alright. I had the pasta with meatballs. Jayson had his carbonera. And we started with the fried calamari. It wasn't bad. It was good.And this might have been a four star review ... and it's probably closer to a three and a half star review. But I did take out, and was really upset and disappointed in that experience.One, and perhaps this was partially my fault, but I thought I was ordering an individual size pizza. For some reason, on their menu, in the middle of their pizza offerings, they put a calzone. I didn't realize that was what I was ordering since everything else on that was pizza. So, when I got the calzone I was surprised. I called and whoever answered was rude and dismissive. Being a trouper, I gave the calzone a shot. It was disgusting. I threw it out after a few bites, if I got through that much.Would I go back? Honestly, I don't know. From a convenience stand point, it's literally around the corner. But, then again, one block up is a slew of other Italian options. This was such a disappointment, I think I would be more annoyed than not returning.
