Not sure I want to share this authentic Italian gem with everyone ‘cuz we’re saving it for ourselves. Celebrating a weekday birthday in the city, we wanted some great, unpretentious food. Our server (everyone actually) Chris made us feel like part of the family. Reminiscing about growing up in Little Italy and living there for 40 years (us, not young Chris), we felt like we were having Sunday supper at Nonna’s. Needless to say the pizza (with honey!), meatballs, octopus, braised short ribs – 2ways, all the pasta dishes, special olive oil, bread, Amarone, cappuccino, espresso…all of it was absolutely amazing. It’s a hole in the wall and easy to miss, but missing this place would be tragic. Yeah, we all really enjoyed ourselves, thank you Donna Margherita!

Hidden gem. Everything was so good from the pizza down to the mozzarella and meatballs. I forgot to take a picture but I also had broccoli Rabe sausage it was so good. There was a group of 10 of us and everyone loved their food. Great wine selection. . Delicious bread with amazing olive oil to dip it in. Really great service. The owner came to see how we liked the food and he’s from Italy. It’s great to go to Italian restaurant to know someone who loves their food and is proud of it. We will definitely go back again if you’re in the area or visiting Marymount College this is the place to go to.

Small locally owned Italian restaurant. The bread was delicious and so was the pasta. The portions were quite big too (don’t let the photos fool you).

INCREDIBLE!! Truly a hidden gem in this huge city. Sal was incredible, and brought us our pizza himself! This is the most authentic Italian pizza I’ve had outside of Italy itself. The bread was incredible. The restaurant was clean, the staff was truly amazing, and the food was out of this world. I highly recommend this place! There’s a strong chance I’ll go back tomorrow!!

Absolutely Amazing!!! Salvatore is such a kind, warm and brilliant chef. The food is beyond delicious. Balancing the warmth and delicious generosity of elite Neapolitan cuisine with the nuances of fine dining without any pretense.

A NYC must if you love true and authentic Neapolitan food and hospitality. Top quality ingredients hand picked and delivered from Naples and Italy. Fantastic culinary skills and wonderful service. We didn’t even order from the menu! We let one of the owners surprise us from one course to another.

Absolutely fantastic Neapolitan food. The servers and staff were all courteous and friendly, offering suggestions for dishes and dessert. The quality was probably the best I’ve had for Italian cuisine. Really excellent wine and beer prices too! Can’t wait to come back and try pizza and more dessert!

One of the best Italian restaurants in the city. Salvatore makes you feel like you’re in his home town of Naples. Very authentic dishes and all the ingredients are fresh. Highly recommend.

Excellent restaurant! We had the pizza diavolo and spaghetti & meatballs. I think they are the best meatballs I’ve ever had. The atmosphere is a nice balance between intimate and relaxed. The staff is great too!
