Reviews
The experience was great, there are so many hosts there, some male host are better than female host at the front. But they all have good customer service. Food was delicious and my favorite place to meet everyone in town. Literally you’ll see everyone if you go on Saturday night.
Great dinner at Morandi! Highly recommend going to morandi and getting the ravioli. Homemade pasta with a fantastic lemon flavor. Easy to get seating and nice outdoor seating setup. Staff was very attentive and friendly. Free bread was really good too. Will come back!
I was waiting for a long time, and finally, we met this place with my friends! There was a 1-hour wait list for outside, and we decided to be in as walk-ins. We didn’t regret it!! The food was exceptional, and the ambience is charming! We will definitely come back again.
The house bread was honestly one of the best parts of the meal fresh, warm, and incredibly satisfying. For mains, the Risotto ai Funghi and Margherita pizza are absolute must-tries. Both were perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The service was attentive without being overwhelming, and the ambiance had that classic cozy Italian charm that makes you want to stay longer. Overall, a fantastic spot for a relaxed and delicious Italian meal in NYC. Will definitely be coming back!
Had a really nice experience at Morandi. We celebrated a friends bday and had an amazing time. Tons of vegetarian options! Love the cozy interiors too!
