"Came here on a Friday afternoon right at opening for lunch. We had our pick of table since there were few customers there. Seating was very comfortable. Our waitress was knowledgeable of the menu and guided us well. We were not rushed at all!Ricotta- I did not try this but one of our fellow diners raved about it and devoured it in a satisfactory manner!Classic pizza- I love the pizza here. The wood fired method created the perfect crust- soft and Sri soy at the same time. The sauce and cheese were delicious. I had more that one slice. I have tried the mushroom pizza here in the past. It's delicious!Roasted organic chicken: this chicken will end anyone's aversion to ordering chicken at a restaurant for fear that it will be dry and chalky. This chicken is nothing like that! It's perfection!! It is juicy, well seasoned. The herb sauce is the perfect compliment. The roasted potatoes are quite tasty. Lumache/ Lamb bolognese: our fellow patron really loved this dish as well. I have not tried it.Over all great place to dine in a neighborhood filled with noteworthy restaurants. This one certainly has earned its keep!"

Super nice restaurant! Really nice inside and a great place to celebrate events. Pasta dishes are really good with great appetizer options. Try to sit in the back room. Only complaint is it’s quite dark ?

Service and atmosphere were great. Food.....food on the other hand was no where near up to par of what an Italian restaurant in NY should taste like. Also there wasnt a bartender on duty. We came for lunch at 2pm and the drinks were awful. View menu

Really great dinner at Leuca. The mist…. salad was extremely good, the branzino very big and excellent. Slight disappointment with the steak which was served lukewarm and the potatoes that came with were too hard to eat. Broccoli rabe was a disappointment. We had a great waitress though and the atmosphere was wonderful. Will be back!

This spot is unbelievably sexy and all the food is delicious. The overall ambiance is incredible—great lighting, music, service, dishware, glassware.. the whole thing. Not to mention—ALL the food is incredibly delicious. Every time I go, we end up almost ordering the whole menu. Have always had an exceptional time here. Great for out of town guests and celebrations! Also can accommodate large parties.

The restaurant is nicely appointed and the staff was very delightful and knowledgeable about the menu. There were very attentive without being intrusive. The food was well prepared, beautifully presented and delicious. The only issue I had was the amount of salt used in the preparation of the dishes. An hour later there wasn't enough water to quench my thirst. I must qualify this by saying I almost never use salt, so it could just be my taste. I would definitely return for another meal.

I always loved the interior of this space but happy they added the outdoor option as well. Came here for Sunday brunch and happy with the whole experience. We ordered the following:Wood-Fired Pizza- with pistachio, pesto, pork sausage and fennel pollen; southern Italian benedict with crispy pepperoni, pane Siciliano, hollandaise and kale; cheeps milk ricotta with hot honey and garlic with garlic bread; Black Tonnarelli with ruby shrimp and local calamari.I looooved the ricotta. Great mix of flavors. My next favorite was the pasta or the pizza, Honestly everything was delish surprisingly since it was a debut of a new menu. I typically don't order benedicts but happy my friend did so that I co...

I got the chili eggs and they were delicious, definitely made me wonder how the rest of the menu tasted. The place is a beautiful spot for hotels guest and local alike. I got there around 9:30, no one greeted me but here was on woman behind the bar that seemed to be taking care of the two or three tables already there. It was crowded by no means and did take at least 15 mins for her to make her way around to me with a menu. I ordered both my latte and eggs then in case she didn't come by even longer. She was sweet and attentive when present, and kindly helped me make a decision on food. After that I never saw her except when I got up to close my check. I wish they would give her one more per...

"When we called to reserve a table, no one informed us that there was a dining time limit of 1.5 hours. My friend wanted to invite more people to join us for dinner, but I was unsure if everyone would agree to the minimum charge of $60, including taxes and tips. I confirmed a reservation for 7 people during my second call, but ultimately, only 6 of us showed up. The table we were given was quite small, making it uncomfortable for six people, especially with the mandatory minimum spending of $60, as well as a 20% tip. For just two people, the minimum tip is 18%. I was confused about the dining time limit—was it two hours or 1.5? The party area was limited to just the backyard for additional seating. I was with friends who didn’t know the group well, and we arrived early at 3 PM, but we couldn’t wait until 6:30 PM. That’s why we ended up sitting at a separate table for two. Unfortunately, the restaurant didn’t seem to care and couldn’t arrange for us to be seated closer together. We had no choice in the matter. To make matters worse, the female waiter had a poor attitude. It felt like we were dining in a sidewalk market. She questioned another girl who served me ponzu sauce, apparently because I looked impatient when I saw her face. Her attitude only worsened after that. It seems like they need to train their employees better, as they seem unaware of how to provide good service. As for the food, it was just okay, typical of basic Japanese cuisine. There were too many restrictions! Customers are forced to adhere to the restaurant’s rules and limitations. I cannot recommend this place unless someone is specifically looking for a fast-food experience. In short, I don’t think I’ll be returning next time."
