Beverly Ge
“Excellent service. A small but cozy and beautifully decorated space. The main detractor for the atmosphere was the fact that we were seated next to a loud party, although of course that isn't the restaurant's fault but does reflect the space constraints. My favorite dish was the spaghetti alle vongole. I didn't find the desserts particularly exceptional (the chocolate mousse cake and the tiramisu).”

“We spend a little bit of time in the Cafe. The atmosphere was very calm and cute. We had little chat with the server. She was so kind. Coffees tasted wonderful. Pistachio cake was delicious and I loved the lemon taste with pistachio. If you need a quiet time in the crazy city give a chance this little cafe.”

“I noticed this restaurant 2 years ago while in the city on a work trip. It piqued my interest because it looked automatically Italian and I was just back from Italy. Kept the location and FINALLY made it back! Food is DELICIOUS! Charming interior. Delicious St. Germain spritzer. Very eager to go back to the city and dine here again. There are so many dishes I want to try. GO!!”
