"I usually wait to write a review after I've visited the place at least twice but this place has been on my list to visit since forever and I finally got to eat it today and they did not disappoint! I got the seitan parm and my boyfriend got the chicken parm and then we got the vegan tiramisu. SO yummy! Really happy with the seitan option, as a vegan athlete I try to get at least 20 30 g of protein per meal and that can be hard when eating out at most other vegan spots. The seitan was very good and the pasta and sauce were delicious. I'm not a fan of the vegan cheese but that's across the board.

Incredible dinner experience. The service was excellent. Leo was so kind and chatted to us while helping us get a table before the reservation rush later in the night. The chicken parm was excellent. Huge portion. 2 different pieces of chicken with spaghetti. Excellent old school atmosphere in an eatery from the early 1900s. Highly recommend it

I’d skip the dessert they weren’t the best but with everything else you definitely won’t leave hungry! I’d return.

It’s a neighborhood staple and visiting is like stepping back in time. You may have seen this restaurant in movies shows and not even realized it (think Soprano’s Boardwalk Empire to name a few). The great thing about this spot (other than the fact it opened in 1908) is that vegans and non vegans can both enjoy satisfying food! We tried the vegan dishes favorites were the stuffed mushrooms eggplant parm. Some good wines to be had as well. Make sure to be very clear when ordering bc even tho we order off the vegan the eggplant parm arrived and after a fee bites we realized it wasn’t the vegan one! Yikes! is it the best pasta in nyc? no. but it’s an experienced that’s worth having it’s a red s...
