I'm a picky Italian, from the northeast, and this place offers great Italian food! The atmosphere, wait, and service are all part of the experience...but if a "hole in the wall", long wait, slow service aren't part of what you want with your excellent food, then try the sister restaurant Edo's Squid, which offers a similar menu but "fancier" digs. My favorites: scungilli, broccoletti, orecchietti, rockfish, and the ny strip steak...

Pros: Food, wine, atmosphere

Cons: Location, service

Editor's Review

Don't discount authentic Italian in a distressed dive--one dinner is all it takes to delight.  See the full editorial review.

Insider Tips

The Service

Legendary for being lax and inattentive. Some Southerners loudly declare "I'll nevah come back." Others consider it a trade-off. Be forewarned!
