Nothing like it Aperol Spritz here on a warm sunny day in New York. The service here is great as the server recommended items for us and both were very good. We were originally going to get the calamari, but ended up settling for the octopus after the server recommended it, and it was honestly delicious. It was steamed octopus, and the texture and flavor was great. The beef tartare was also really good and it was paired with some crispy bread which we also enjoyed. The view was great if you can get outside seating. You can see the Brooklyn bridge as well as a waterfront view. I would recommend reserving this place early if you can.

Not pictured is the calamari, which was so yummy! The pizza was delicious. They had a very refreshing summer cocktail with vodka and cucumber, that was delightful! It's a very cute restaurant. They have a large patio, make sure to make a reservation in advance to sit outside. Great views! Service was great!

Is this old school Little Italy Italian? No. Have I had better Italian? Yes. Did my experience line up with some of the really terrible reviews? Nah! Yes, service was initially a little cool, but was attentive and did warm up. It was easy to get a reservation on a Sunday evening and I was seated inside with a nice view onto the water. There was no outdoor seating that day due to rain. The views really are great, and it's one of the main reasons to eat here. I had the whipped ricotta and ruffle honey crostini to start. Good flavor, but I think next time I would go with the gnocchi alla romana with gorgonzola and sage. For my main course I had the bucatini cacio e Pepe with black truffle. It wasn't quite as thick, rich, or decadent as some of the best cacio I've had, but it was pretty good. Again, expectations must be tempered here. You're paying for location, views, and convenience, not super stellar classic Italian. I also asked the server to order me a side he felt like I couldn't live without. So he chose the asparagus, which was cooked perfectly and had some hot and gooey cheese on top. I had three cocktails, but I unfortunately did not keep notes, and only two are on the online menu: the La Lollo (mezcal, aperol, amaro nonino, strawberry, grapefruit, Fresno chili, lemon) and the oro spritz (absolut elyx vodka, cointreau, licor 43, lemon, turmeric, cardamom, and Prosecco soda). All three cocktails were light, fruity, refreshing. Several cocktails on the menu have interesting/less mainstream ingredients, with lots of herbs and spices as well as delicious looking fruit flavor profiles. There is also an extensive wine list. They have wood oven pizza, multiple pastas (ragu, bolognese, fusilli with kale pesto, a spaghetti with Maine lobster and chili, and more). They have wood and charcoal mains, such as whole cauliflower with lemon aioli, salmon, branzino, filet mignon, veal. They have salads and tartare. Yes, my cacio e Pepe was 55 dollars (that truffle is EXPENSIVE). Would I order that again over the ricotta and spinach ravioli with butter and sage, that was 20 dollars cheaper? Probably not. Would I pay 21 dollars for some crostini again? Probably not. But I knew what I was paying for. I was nearby at St. Ann's Warehouse for a show (reviewed separately), I wanted something very close by (steps away), the view was nice, and it was easy to get in. I paid for those things more than the food. It's what happens in Dumbo on the waterfront. But this spot still doesn't deserve all the hate.
