Popular, small Northern Italian eatery. Fresh-made pastas and homestyle meat dishes are the hallmark of this budget Northern Italian spot.
We loved our time here! We sat in the outdoor seating, which was surprising warm with the heaters. The food was delicious, the waitstaff was friendly and bottle of wine was perfect addition. Our favorite meal was the cappellacci- most interesting and savory flavors with truffle. I love pesto, but the salmon and shrimp taste takes away from the pesto sauce. Everything else was great; not sure if I would return given so many Italian restaurants in the city. Also, surprising that the portion size was smaller compared to the price point.
Good Italian restaurant open for Brunch during weekends and lunch/dinner weekdays. Their outside seating is good in summer surrounded by bougainvillea. Service is attentive and fast. The food is tasty prepared with an Italian flair but not typical of an Italian restaurant. Although there are standard Italian dishes on the menu. The Avacadi Toast and Eggs Benedict were really good. Dessert menu for Brunch what more can one ask for. Good selection of Italian wines.
We had a great dinner this Friday night at Da Andrea! The outdoor seating atmosphere is very well designed. Much of their pasta is fresh made daily. Keep in mind the calamari was not fried which we didn’t expect but was delicious!
Ate 10/23/22 Sunday and Jim made our day. I ate here 2016 and again now 2022-- and I still remember how competent and kind Jim our waiter was then and is now. We came with our baby in a stroller and a friend for Sunday brunch. He found space for our family in the back, was extremely attentive and made our dining experience very memorable. We liked Da Andrea due to ability to make reservations on Sunday brunch (very critical when you have young baby). The food was good but the service with Jim was world class!!!
Attentive and loving servers. My rating is more strictly based on the food itself. Presentation was on point, however I was let down by the lackluster flavors in the dishes we had. We both ordered appetizers and an entree. From my grilled squid appetizer I just ate the grilled squid slices and the cucumber and corn. I was left craving for more flavor from the appetizer and later the entree. I got the squid ink with clams tagliolini, 4/5 pasta dish. Freshly in house made squid ink pasta, the clams were fresh, clean & yummy. I feel like they have more potential if they add in more flavors.
We had an amazing date night under the lights and flowers. Our server Christian was awesome. The steak was cooked to perfection. The wine was fantastic. Ambiance top notch. Can't say enough about it honestly.
The food was very decent, nothing too unique or awe-inspiring, but wow, the service is really top notch. The staff are kind, detail-oriented, and really made us feel so welcome and comfortable. Never really experienced service like this before - they could be serving peanut butter sandwiches and I'd come back still. Also super romantic and nice environment!
Beautiful experience!! Came here for lunch and i was overwhelmed with the fantastic options on the menu. I will definitely be back to try more of their pastas. Every dish that came out looked so good. Beautiful venu, hope i can come back on a date ? staff was very helpful and gave excellent recommendations. Seriously, you must have a meal here when you are in nyc.
