My boyfriend and I have dined at this lovely little nook a number of times and always leave feeling completely satisfied and as if we had just left a class-A dinner party thrown at the home of some of wonderful friends. Although all of the menu items and specials always sound tantalizing, we often end up ordering the pastaless eggplant lasagna and the gnocchi souffle. Delicious and unique! We also enjoy the variety of cheese plates and asparagus appetizer. The staff is very friendly and we have gotten into such pleasant conversations about their native Italian homes or there endeavors in NY. This is not a hoity-toity scenster spot nor a cheapy no frills joint. But it is thoroughly enjoyable and highly recommended. We do wish they took credit cards though! Pros: Unique Food, Ambience, Service Cons: Cash Only, Small

Miss Williamsburg has gotten notoriety from some press and a Food TV review so they have decided to overcharge for relatively average Italian food. We ordered the special capressa salad of mozzarella and grape tomatoes which turned out to be pedestrian cheese and unripe plum tomatoes for a ridiculous $14. Beware the special entrees which are priced 40-50% higher than the regular menu items which are overpriced to begin with. Don't bother with the taughted meat lasagna which lacks meat and flavor. This is an East Village restaurant with uptown prices and downright average food. Pros: None Cons: Prices, Average Food, Slow Service

Curiousity got the better of us so we finally ducked into the cozy Miss W. I'm so glad we did. The staff was so friendly and attentive and the mood was casual/romantic. We ordered their famous lasagna (mouth watering) and the crepe rings (amazing) and we're sopping up the plates with bread after this incredibly delicious and surprisingly light meal. The chocolate souffle for dessert ("the best you've ever tasted", we were told) was out of this world. A pino grigio made the meal complete. So happy to have found this new favorite in the East Village. Pros: Great food, Great service

I had heard that this place had great food....not so. The dinner entrees tasted like leftovers. The service was slow. The place was too small and not cozy. I would recommend trying the appetizers, but skip the lasanga (what they are known for). Pros: Appetizers Cons: , Service, Ambiance

Four of us went for dinner, and were all disappointed by our food. Two of us had salads, which were just lettuce in a bowl and the other two shared a "vegetable plate" which was some chopped up carrots, string beans, and potatoes in some sort of lemon juice. For our entrees two had the meat lasagna which was too buttery and creamy and the other two had the shrimp gnocci which was HORRIBLE. It seemed as though the cold cuts/cheese appetizer was popular. We did, however, enjoy our wine, which the waitress recommended. The deserts appeared to look okay, however we paid our check (in cash only) and headed to second ave deli for coffee and desert. We all agreed that hot dogs would have been a much better choice. Go for the ambiance, but not for the food. Pros: Ambiance, Wine, Crowd Cons: , Food, Food

While we had to wait a while for a table due to the somewhat packed conditions of the restaurant, the staff made the wait worth it by checking on us and even bringing out a complimentary glass of wine. The BYOB feature makes the meal a deal and there may be no nicer waitress in Manhattan. Pros: Cheap, Friendly
