"Decent Italian place with plenty of vegetarian options. Decided to have their Garlic Knots which were really good and had a croissant like feel to them. Of course had to try their Chicago deep dish pizza, but was slightly disappointed. It could use more sauce and more flavor. The cocktails were delish. The staff were friendly and the ambience was nice as well. There's plenty of seating inside and outside. I would definitely like to come back here to try their other vegetarian dishes."

"It’s mid-September and it’s the perfect weather in NYC…not too hot, not too cold..cool. Out for a walk I stumbled across Gottino. Feeling peckish I stopped in and grabbed a table for one in their garden. It was “brunch” time so the menu reflected the time I stopped in but there was enough to pick from that wasn’t all carbs and sweet. Started with picking the libation… perused the wine list and ordered a Nebbiolo. For my entree ordered the asparagus and goat cheese fittata. Everything was great. Quickly seated (they let me pick where) and there wasn’t an ungodly long time between ordering and actually eating. The frittata was just how I liked it. Crispy edges but a firm pillowy center. Perfectly sized and just delicious. I definitely will be back."
