Best Pre-Theater Restaurants in Carroll Gardens

Excellent little restaurant in Chelsea, chosen from an Open table search and reviews. Chosen to celebrate our daughter's 18th birthday in NYC. Seasonal decor, we were well looked after from arrival, the host and staff went out of their way to make our daughter's birthday special. The food was excellent and I would categorize it as Italian American, so Italian with flare. Portions were large but food quality and presentation was of the highest standard, we even found a wine that didn't break the bank, our waitress was lovely and attentive. We were lucky we found this little gem of a restaurant.

Server was incredibly friendly and helpful. The food was really good quality (the poached eggs were fantastic) and the coffee was good, too. Fantastic location and a great experience!

We had a very nice dinner last night. We met Tal for the first time. He was very friendly & helpful. All the servers were great. Loved the Dorado & the gnocchi my wife had was especially delicious.

We had a Christmas Eve dinner reservation for two and thoroughly enjoyed it! Delicious food … I could eat their pumpkin rolls all day long. They are so flavorful with a crispy crust and pillowy soft center. The entire staff works together to ensure your water glass is always full and table cleared quickly before the next course. Some reviewers have commented about the small portions but we thought they were just right. Our dining experience was enhanced 1000% by our exceptional server Juan … he was charming and absolutely amazing! Highly recommend!

It was a pre fixe meal as it was Christmas Eve but I think that worked to our advantage. The Mezze was outstanding. I highly recommend sharing dishes. All of them were very good.
