"Why do they bother asking to make note of about a special occasion during reservations if they do nothing to honor it? In times of Covid, one would think they would go out of their way to show appreciation to their native Floridian customers who dare to come out. We both ordered a dessert didn’t even get a “Happy Anniversary” or a candle. Not asking for anything for free but that would be nice Ambiance: Nice updated yet cozy room with maybe quiet couples aside from one rowdy group of which ruined the atmosphere. Not the fault of restaurant but I asked for a quiet romantic table to celebrate our anniversary. They had a second room they could have put us in. Our choices were a table next to the rowdy crowd, or sit next to kitchen/bathrooms Service: Staff wore masks but not gloves so that was off putting. Service was perfectly attentive but not intrusive. Gave us a nice amount of time in between courses Food: Tomatoes on caprese salad were ice cold. Tomatoes should be served room temperature. An Italian restaurant should know this better than any other. Poor quality tomatoes. Enjoyed the flavor of the veal ravioli (although extremely al dente, and I love al dente but this was crunchy The bolognese was flavorless like a kid’s dish and the linguine was surprisingly overcooked. Especially compared to the ravioli. No consistency. Even the butter pats were frozen solid. Tiramisu was too American, with too much marscarpone cream and not enough espresso flavor or lady fingers. The large portions did not make up for the lack of flavor Overall: I’m very sorry to knock on the little things but they just missed the mark on every single thing. I hate to say anything that would hurt a restaurant in these uncertain times but I hope this helps them improve. I’m sure they have their regulars who are treated better. If you’re not one of them, I’d try somewhere else"

"Horrific experience for a Mother 's Day family brunch on a semi-empty restaurant.Dishes don 't come out at the same time for everyone at the table, waiter forgets my drink, then comes back saying would you like some red wine? the white wine is warm . Seriously? Forty-minutes have gone by and my pasta is nowhere to be seen even though my wife has finished her meal and our 2.5 year-old son is starting to get kranky.We decided to then leave, and skimming through the reviews, it is clear we are far from the first ones.The worst part is, this is not our first experience with the exact same issues. Many, many years ago before Covid we had a similar experience with family visiting from abroad. We thought that after 5+ years since that incident they would have learned how to manage a kitchen and properly train staff. Look, we all have bad days, but on a semi-empty day and with consistent issues that span for several years of horrible service? No.A real shame since the place is actually gorgeous and the location is unbeatable for the UWS.I really just hope they run out of their lease and the city decides to move forward with a different concessionaire. One that can effectively operate a kitchen, hire and train the right staff, and ultimately, add value to the neighborhood instead of ruining family plans.Needless to say, never coming back under any circumstances."
