A favorite amongst my family and friends, it's almost what's not to love other than the wait? The staff is kind and gracious though, which is great because it makes the wait and experience worth it. The clams are amazing, the pasta is always delicious and the steak and frites (or eggs) are just perfect marinated and cooked. I've even had catering from this place a few times and nothing misses, the meatballs, calamari, it's all very good. I will say, it can get pretty loud especially during brunch hours. The music def causes this since you have to speak over the speaker. read more

One of my favorite NYC restaurants. Great menu, ambiance and customer service. This location is my preferred FUMO. Never tire of going to this special place. read more

Where do I begin. This spot has won my heart in Harlem. It never fails. The best best ambiance and food. I feel like Italian restaurants have a nice old feel to them. I like it. But this spot, different!!!!! there's nothing like listening to some feel good Hip hop on the speakers while enjoying some Italian food. The drinks are truly the best. All made to perfection. I can go on about this spot but you have to experience it on your own if that's the type of experience you like. What i also love about this spot is the iconic bathroom. I just love how my photos come out with the beautiful emerald green leaves longed on the walls. Ugh perfection. Service is stupendous. They really care about your experience. I know you here about the food because we all tired of Instagram famous food but the food be trash. Not here!!! Let's get into it. The baked clams and penne funghi pasta is really my go to. I keep acting like I'm going to order something else and switch it up, but that hasn't happened yet. I celebrated my birthday here and it was a wonderful experience. I truly felt like I was loved and cared for. It also has a romantic feel to it by the way. Nice spot for a casual romantic dinner night out. Harlem always delivers. read more

I've been here a few times and it's time to review . Fumo is a beautiful setting for some pasta . They have different happy hour selections . Pasta for happy hour is my fav !! The drinks change with the seasons but they are always so good . The most refreshing alcoholic beverages I've ever had . They also have mocktails for those not drinking . I tried dessert for the first time yesterday and it was delicious . I love dining out but sometimes i just want super calm vibes . I went to Fumo with a book and just read , drank , and enjoyed my food . They have 3 locations I've been to two and they all are welcoming and nice . read more

Fumo - Rigatoni Classico with Alfredo Meatballs - Pizza Near Me - New York, New York

Wow!!! We took our Italian exchange student to Little Italy for Italian food and were not impressed. The next day a friend, Ramiro who we call the Mayor of Harlem, took us to Fumo in Harlem... Who knew you had to go to Harlem for the good stuff! Not to mention, when the Italian says the Bolognese and Marinara sauces were as good as her Tuscan grandmother's, you know it's great! Our server Miguel was fantastic as well. Everything was top-notch. So much that we came back the following day! read more

I want to give this place 5 stars cause the food was so good and the place is super cute, but our server was really disappointing. I work as a server as well, so im trying to be an easy table cause it was a packed house. I don't know if its cause my gf and I look young so he thought we weren't gonna tip well but thats besides the point. A place that has decent sized wine list.. as a server you should know your wines. We wanted to buy a bottle he had no idea how to explan to us how it tasted. This led to him having to go bk and forth to give us a taste of the wine. By the time he got to us with the bottle to present it, he was super annoyed and rude. It just ruined the vibe of the night. Loved the food here but that experience will not have me coming back to this location. read more

Don't order pickup from this place don't order delivery honestly don't even stop by. Waited half an hour in the rain for an order that they notified me was ready for pickup and I even gave them a 10 minute lead. For the price point, you'd really expect better service. Given that folks choose a pickup option to save time it really sucked that I had to waste over 30 minutes waiting for my food and also never even receive an apology from the management. The hostess was absolutely unapologetic as she handed me my order. Since the food took so long you'd think it'd also be piping hot but funnily enough not even close. The food was lukewarm and I live two blocks away. The truffle mac and cheese is just oozing oil. Pizza is average. read more

Fumo shows up in the Michelin guide. Great ambience, has a Harlem vibe. Huge restaurant. Even on a Friday night a few tables available. Calamari 4.8/5 - best I have had in a long time Spagetti w/ clams 4.5/5 Chicken Marsala 4/5 -- interesting variation. The sauce is very thick, lots of mushrooms and a huge side of spinach. Good, but different. Not sure if I will get it again. service - 4.5/5 - even though its crazy busy, service is excellent. you feel loved here. one negative. inside dinning, tables are very close together. you can hear two other conversations. restaurant volume is loud. For a restaurant that shows up in a Michelin guide, it's VERY reasonable priced. read more

Fumo has a nice ambiance and the menu looks pretty good. It just doesn't deliver on flavor. Its not terrible, but it's just ooooo-Kay. I've tried quite a few dishes there and they were all mid. Nothing to complain about and nothing to praise. Given their prices...I'll pass. I wish them well, but unless they increase their flavor profile, I'm good. read more

Fumo - The end of Rigatoni Sciaccia - Pizza Near Me - New York, New York

I sat at 4:00 pm. Ordered immediately, me and my lady were hungry. Drinks came in about 10 minutes. At around 4:35 me and her begin to wonder and at 4:45 we decided to say something. Our server comes and asks if we ordered clams and I say yes we haven't received anything. He goes to kitchen and comes back and they said they couldn't find the ticket. At this point it's been almost an hour and they said it would be at least another 15 minutes until it was ready. Fine. 15 minutes go by and two pastas come out and they were not what we ordered. I was in a rush and had to eat now so I didn't have time to wait and order something else so i decided to eat my penne ala vodka. Clams came after, were poorly prepared and over cooked. damn near burnt. Was charged 120 for two pasta dishes we didn't order and burned clams. We weren't offered any compensation, any free drinks , the manager never came by to speak or apologize , I don't think any one addressed the situation. So with that being said do not ever go to this Fumo location. Very unprofessional staff and horrible service. I have been to many Fumos and this is the worst experience I have ever had by far, probably from any restaurant. I never leave reviews but this had to be said because wtf read more

We came as a party of five around 8pm on a Thursday night and the wait was less than 10 minutes. The restaurant was beautifully designed with a cozy ambience. Apparently, they have 50 percent off bottles of wine on Mondays. I will definitely be back to partake in that. We ordered a bottle of Malbec for 40. The salads were good. The pizzas were good too! My friends didn't think the margherita pizza was anything special but some of us really liked the prosciutto, arugula truffle oil pizza also known as the Parma. The bolognese was also on point! I highly recommend this place! They have another location in Morningside! read more

Fumo - Parma - Pizza Near Me - New York, New York

Came for an impromptu Saturday brunch without a reservation and was anticipating either being turned away or having a long wait. Surprisingly there were lots of free tables and I had a choice of tables to sit. Love the dining area, great service, and great overall vibe. I had the Eggs Benedict and home fries. The home fries were cooked really well (I often find that a lot of places tend to undercook), but the seasoning (paprika maybe?) was way off. Hollandaise sauce really comes down to personal preference, and in this case it was sooo sour with way too much vinegar added. Seasoning for me was also too heavy. I guess some people would like this, but I prefer a more simple hollandaise with just a bit of lemon. So I won't be ordering the Eggs Benedict here again, but I will definitely return to try their dinner menu and pizza which I expect will be fantastic. read more

Pretty Italian place with good food and service! Fried Mozz - $15 (4/5) Flavorful mozzarella fried perfectly Fried Calamari - $16 (4/5) Decent calamri with big portions but the calamari itself wasn't that special. It's good to share for a group. Burrata- $20 (4/5) The burrata, arugula and prosciutto had a good balance and were good starters for the meal. Branzino - $26 (2/5) Bland and not moist either. The spinach was also bland. Nothing was particularly memorable but everyone else who ordered pasta seemed to really enjoy their dishes. The portions for the pasta were huge too. I would probably come back to try their pasta but not the mains. read more

As usual, food here is so good! This time around I got the penne funghi with grilled chicken (also, not sure why I said this time around) because I always get that along with other things but that's always the my fave, it's so good! Not too creamy, not too heavy, just perfect. My friend and I split the mozzarella and we also ordered the chicken parm and baked ziti with chicken to go. I didn't try those but heard they were very good, I don't doubt it. The frozé is on the sweeter side, so get it if you like sweet, don't if you don't . What I usually get is the pizza, always a winner especially the pepperoni sausage one, but no room this time. I'll always be back read more

I met my lovely Elite friend, Juliana T, here for a catch-up dinner. Upon first glance, Fumo stood out to me for its ambiance! It's so open, airy, bright, and modern, not to mention the sick view of the pretty school across the street! You feel transported out of Harlem and into an Italian neighborhood. There's a pretty bar you can sit at as well. I just love when restaurants put effort into their decor and vibe, and it shows with Fumo. We were promptly greeted with some olive oil and balsamic vinaigrette, along with some basic white bread with thick crust, mmmm. JT got one of their personal pizzas as per her Michelin Guide info (what they are known for), and I opted for the shrimp salad. She enjoyed her dish, and I loved mine as well. It's expensive, but I think it was worth it, because there was a lot of greens and jumbo shrimp in it, in addition to the perfect amount of dressing. If you want to go the healthy route, it's a winner. FYI, they have happy hours for wines and a couple bites, like meatballs. The food wasn't mind-blowing, but it doesn't always have to be! It was comforting and satisfied us, and the service was quick. We left filled and happy. I recommend Fumo for a fun, light meal! read more

Met a friend here for Happy Hour yesterday. Happy Hr menu is hella limited and if they add 3 more items, one being a wine based cocktail, it'd be insane. Ambiance is fire. Date night valid. First date spot if needed. Food was good. Truffle fries . Rigatoni Gemeri . Solid spot read more

Fumo is such a staple for me and my friends. I've never had a bad meal or service there and I've been there for lunch, brunch and dinner. My ONLY complaint is that they need to remodel and add at least 1 more restroom. I was there Sunday 8.20.23 for brunch and needed to use the facilities but the line was long and it was quicker for me to run home (142nd) than to wait. read more

My work girls and I came here for dinner after one of them had been raving about the spicy calamari for months. Some of us made the drive from Queens to get here, so it better had been worth it! Parking is not the worst, we found some parking around City College nearby. We were a little nervous about dining in Harlem, but the block itself was lively and felt very safe. They have a lovely outdoor dining area, but we decided to sit indoors that day. The restaurant is very cute. After the sun sets, the restaurant is super dim and romantic! The spicy calamari lived up to the hype. Lightly fried, and savory delicious red sauce with a kick. We should've ordered two of them! There's a lot of excess sauce if you want to dip some bread in. The truffle fries were a good side. Maybe a little too light on the truffle, but we still enjoyed. The vegan pizza was great. The flavors of the pesto and tomato popped. My friend said she forgot to ask for mushrooms but that with that on top, it's usually even better! The spaghetti lobster fra diavolo was so delicious. Probably the biggest hit of the night. The lobster was plentiful, and the sauce was so good. We ate every last strand of spaghetti. We also ordered a chicken marsala at the end. It was the only thing I wouldn't order again, just based off personal preference of not loving chicken breast. I ordered an Amelia cocktail, and my friend ordered the Georgia. The Amelia was sweet and I couldn't taste much alcohol. I tried the Georgia, and even though I'm not a fan of gin, it was pretty good. The service was also a consistent A+ throughout. Our server was so patient and approachable with us, which totally boosted the experience. Overall, was it worth the drive from Queens? Well, I'm still dreaming of that calamari, so yes, I would return! read more

My best friend recently moved to New York and ever since he got there he's been raving about his favorite Italian restaurant in Harlem. I went to visit him a few weeks ago and finally got to check it out. I tried the Rigatoni Gamberi which comes with shrimp but I added chicken as well. Absolutely amazing! This was the best meal I had during my trip. I'll definitely be visiting the restaurant every time I go to NY. read more

Fumo - Rigatoni Gamberi - Pizza Near Me - New York, New York

Across from the gorgeous City College, this open air little spot with patio, bar and seating is a sweet little surprise. They have a very nice selection of pasta dishes and pizza and you receive a hearty serving. We ordered the Clam pasta and split it. It had nice flavor but was lacking enough EVOO or sauce. Our server recommended ordering the spicy Calamari to share since we were sharing the pasta, but did not warn us of portion sizes. Out came a humongous plate of Calamari doused in a delicious Marinara, however, I tend to like my Calamari with a little crunch and this was soggy. Suggestion, serve the sauce on the side for dipping. The server was attentive but perhaps new, because he had to run back and forth several times to get questions answered. Overall, it was nice and I would definitely give them another chance! Next time, I would be mindful of exactly what I am ordering and simply order one item at a time. read more

If there were a Grammys or Emmy for food, and I'm sure there is I just don't know right now, either way, if there were, FUMO should win all of them. All of them thangs. Like, roll up - pop the trunk - load the awards and trophy into the booth. Take them up. Jeez. I'm still orgasming by the way. I'm trying to relax to write this review. Actually, my brain commanded I take a breath because I have eaten so much food that I swear I'm going to pop. And I'm still not finished. The vibe. The music, on point. What is that sound track. It pairs with the food and elevates you. To food heaven. Nothing that was set on our table WASN'T five star. I was crying by the end.

Came on a Saturday at 4pm. Did not know they had a brunch menu upon arrival but what a pleasant surprise. Service was great. Friendly and inviting. The food was good too. Wanted pizza but they do not make pizza between 4 and 5pm. So I got eggs Benedict and my friend got chicken and waffles. Can I just say....Very Good. Ordered a bottle of prosecco. Also good. The vibe and ambiance here is very cool, chill, laid back and comfortable. A definite must go to restaurant in Harlem. I will be back for my pizza. Highly recommend. read more

If you want some modernized Italian this is the place to go. First shoutout to the host who welcomed us with the biggest smiles. I came here on a Thursday night with a group of 8 and of course we were HUNGRY. We sat outside which is pretty comfortable and the music was on point. Started with a bottle of the Rose (which was okay) and the Caesar salad and the spicy calamari ( A MUST HAVE). Our waitress was pretty much on it, drinks came out and (semi cold) bread was served. I ordered the Carbonara which was sooo tasty and I also was able to catch a bite of my friends Branzino. Let me say that the Branzino was served in this sauce that amped it up a couple notches. Overall the experience was pretty good and I'll def be back! read more

This spot is a small nice intimate spot. It's very cute inside they have a cool bar where I sat at. I came here for lunch hours and it's always pretty quiet which I like. The pizza they have here are so good & at a great price. If you're on a budget and need a cute date idea this is a great spot to go to. You can even share a pie together and maybe get drinks. They offer here salad greens , pasta , snacks and full meals like salmon , chicken etc. Something to keep In mind is that this is right across from the city college of New York. The service provided to me and my fiancé was great. I would definitely come back and get some pasta. I had the first time pizza and that was amazing so you can imagine how delicious the pasta must be. read more
