Atmosphere and impeccable service at this place; i was so excited b/c i had heard this was the premiere authentic roman osteria in new york. but while the food was great, it wasn't truly 'authentic roman'-- even though they use italian for the menu (kudos), the penne arrabiatta was far from authentic, and the pricey appetizers were not worth it. we tried 3 different desserts and loved them all (tartufo, grapefruit sorbet, panna cotta), but overall it was a better-than-mediocre and pretty pleasant experience.
Pros: nice atomsphere, good service
Cons: inauthentic roman, steep prices
