I ate at Becco last night for the first time. The food was amazing, the service was great. Josh recommended some great wines for under $25 a piece. My husband, friends and I had a great time. It didn't hurt that we drank 4 bottles of wine.
One of the worst dining experiences ever. Our waiter was rude, unattentive, & very unfriendly. My linguini with clams was completely awful. The linguini was completely dry, cold, and had only a little cream sauce underneath it on the bottom of the bowl, as if they had put some sauce in and thrown dr...

My mother is from Italy and she is a very good cook. If you are looking for fine Italian food I recommend this restaurant.
I wandered into this very cute looking spot after a shopping trip for a light meal. The wine list was good, especially by the glass selections, but that's where the positive aspects end. The waitress said nothing but "yes" in response and wasn't friendly in the least. I ordered the Parma B...
Good food not great but outdoor dining in the garden is great!.
In an effort to treat my husband for his birthday, I took my husband and another couple out to dinner, July 2008. My husband and I have had good experiences in Little Italy in the past and so he wanted to try another restaurant there. The other couple had never been there and thought it would be a...
Becco is a great restaurant for those wanting to either get a pre-theatre meal, or a relaxing dinner post-theatre. There are wonderful selections of both appetizers, entrees, and desserts. The Caesar salad or the cold antipasti are both great starts to your meal. Make sure to check out the pasta sin...
Food was good, decor fine. Lived in NY most of my life and was trying to make a show. Everything was fine until I tried to get my coat for 10 minutes before asking the maitre 'd to assist me, which he seemed to ignore my request. Waited 10 more minutes until my showtime to ask the maitre 'd once mor...
Based on the great food and service ravings of my friend a group of us choose to spent our New Year's Eve $$$ at Meridiana - Italian restaurant. It's a shame and ironic that the recommending friend actually received the brunt of the insulting treatment. Our meal started out great ---- drinks, decent...

You may sit outside or downstairs. They have an early bird special (before 6 p.m.) I had the bluefish with sundried tomatoes and citrus sause. It was superb. I have dined ther three times and have had a great value, delicious dinner.
Forget dining on shlishkes. At this restaurant, dine on exquisitely prepared dishes at real prices. The salmone alla mostarda fish was moist and fresh, not over or underdone. For appetizers, try mozzarella caprese, drizzled with basil and extra virgin olive oil. The service was good- I felt neither ...
OH MY GOD! Carmine's really knows how to feed you the italian way. The portions were HUGE and very reasonably priced. A salad fed five people as did a dinner entree. The Shrimp Parmigiana is highly reccommended. Make sure to leave room for dessert!*****
