Il Piccolo Ristoro - New York

Cute little hole in the wall restaurant that I would have likely missed if it wasn't for Yelp, especially since there's construction around the restaurant at the moment. Since we were there on a holiday weekend, I called in advance to make sure that they would have a table available for us, and they were very accommodating. When we showed up, our table was ready, and we were promptly seated. It's quite cozy inside with no more than a few handful of tables. When I first walked in, I did wonder if we were in the right place since it looked more like a little cafe. It was clean inside though and well ventilated with the kitchen hidden in the back, making it seem smaller than it is. It's casual but inviting. Two of us, including myself, got the tagliatelle bolognese, and we agreed it was delicious. The other two individuals in our group got the gnocchi one got the special with pesto and the other got the one in red sauce. Both loved their meals as well; I had a bite of the gnocchi and found it light and pillowy as it should be. We all got drinks as well, and I got the Moscow mule. It was a little bitter, but overall pretty good. The service was attentive and good, and I was very happy to have found this restaurant thanks to Yelp! I'd be happy to come back for lunch the next time I visit NYC.

The food I had was okay, but the match latte and the cappuccino was not good, no taste and the waitress was mad and showed her attitude when my friend ordered wrong drink. When we check out we wait for the bill to come we want to slit for pay, they said we have to go to inside and pay instead of sit on the table and wait for them to do that. I will never go back there again.

The food was fabulous and service superb. I highly recommend it.

Nice place for breakfast/brunch right below the Highline. We got Avocado with no breaks, Hamiltun Panini and the Il Forzuto panini. The place seemed understaffed but the servers were nice.

Great coffee and breakfast with friendly and quick service. We had the avocado toast with poached eggs and the waffles with Nutella. All delicious!
