We visited [Restaurant Name] on a friend’s recommendation and were impressed by the concept of combining a restaurant and market, with three options on the same floor. Everything looked fresh and high-quality.

On both visits, we were served by Javier, who was exceptionally friendly and knowledgeable about the menu, thanks to the company’s training.

During our first visit, we tried the seafood pasta, which was delicious but had minimal seafood for the price. The tagliatelle alla bolognese was just “OK”—good pasta but not enough sauce and a bit oily.

On our second visit, we ordered pizzas, which were tasty, but at $27 each plus tax, the prices felt a bit steep. Overall, a great dining experience with room for improvement on portion sizes and pricing.

Staff at the bar was specially friendly and welcoming inspite of the endless crowds trying to get a table during lunch time. The lasagna bolognese was impeccable and serving enough for one. At the bar we could overlook the memorial through the window. Desert was absolutely delicious.

La Pizza & La Pasta was full so we took a table at Firenze Ristorante Toscano & Bar. They share the same menu so it was not a big deal. But you have to wait in the same line to be seated...

Actually Firenze was a more refined space, quieter and not as bright. La Pizza was bright white! and so loud! :/ Now that I'm thinking back on it, it was like being in a bright white kitchen...

Had lunch with my coworkers since we hardly see each other face to face :D

Italian Cola, Molecola - This was good, it didn't taste super sweet even though the small bottle had 35mg of sugar. It was similar to Maine Roots Mexican Cola.

Focaccia Rossa - Amazing! We all loved it, the touch of tomato. So good, I could just eat this bread all day long!

Rigatoni Alla Carbonara - I do love a good carbonara and this was just phenomenal! My only comment, and this is a personal thing, it was too al dente, now I know people will argue with me about it but like I said, it's a personal thing. :D The sauce was creamy, and the Guanciale OMG! WOW this is what Carbonara really should be.

Panna Cotta - this was delicious! The panna cotta was cream and not overly sweet. The crumble was just the perfect amount that I was able to get a bit of crunch with every bite.

What a different restaurant! The design, service, food... combination of pasta, seafood and poultry cuisine! Service was delightful! Service was outstanding, the view of the Hudson River and the area is wonderful! Their lounge area before going to your table is comfortable and welcomed!

Wonderful downtown authentic Italian! Great fresh ingredients, perfect execution. The food was both exciting and comforting. Went for a family lunch, and it would also be great for romantic dinner or business entertaining. The staff was very friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. The atmosphere is fine dining with fantastic views, separate for the hustle and bustle of the main Eataly market.
