A big restaurant with plenty of seatings. They even have outdoor on balcony…read more The staff was attentive, professional, and friendly. The mocktail industry was tasty. We had two appetizers, roasted carrots and sungold tomatoes. Both were wonderful. We could have a meal with those and bread. The rigatoni and orata were great as well.

Tried the Charred…read morebeans - very mushy and overcooked Snap peas - were bland Cucumber salad - oddly it was just pickles and blue cheese The rigatoni - solid with a nice sauce The cavatelli with crab - was okay but the sauce was a little thin The wood fired trout - possibly the worst dish I've eaten all year. It was deboned fish stuffed with the mustard greens and there was an overwhelming wasabi flavor to it. Also it was very dry and seemed burnt. The server was very inattentive and we had to flag him down to get anything. This reminded me of eating at an Olive Garden but with way worse food

We had a delicious meal here yesterday. Started with a nicely balanced Spritz and kale Caesar…read moresalad. The salad could've used a splash of more dressing, but was otherwise very fresh and well seasoned. We ordered the eggplant pasta, truffle sausage pasta, and the salmon. All were excellent. We subbed fresh pappardelle on the eggplant dish which was nice and chewy and seasoned simply (garlic, olive oil, salt= perfection). The truffle was not too overpowering, added a nice touch of flavor.

My mom and I went there for Italian food, and we ordered shrimp scampi and chicken parm. The shrimp…read morewas cooked perfectly, but the sauce was a little too much. The chicken parm was very good. The staff wasn't very friendly and approachable.

Are you going to the Joyce for a wonderful evening of dance ?…read more Do you prefer a location close by ? Is inexpensive Italian food a preferred choice ? If you answered "yes" to all three, then Fumo is a place to seriously consider. The restaurant is bright and comfortable. The service is fast and attentive. The menu has lots of excellent choices. The portions are generous. The prices are very reasonable. There you go ! Fumo is for you, (at least the Chelsea location) is for you. Any drawbacks ? youi ask.....well, yes, there is one, and it should be cosnidered. The restaurant is so so so popular that the noise level can be a bit ..... shall we say "daunting." Fumo is a great place but if you want a soft, quiet place to have a serious conversation, maybe save it for another time....

The experience was very disappointing. The menu labels many items as gluten free, but I was told…read morethere's cross contamination. This means those dishes aren't truly gluten free for people with celiac disease or anyone who has to avoid gluten. When I pointed that out to my server, he just gave me a blank stare. I tried to explain why labeling those items as gluten free is misleading, but he seemed completely disinterested, even annoyed, dismissed what I was saying, and simply responded that the pasta is gluten free. I acknowledged that the server doesn't write the menu, but absolutely zero customer service skills. The service overall was lacking. Aside from taking our order, no one checked on us or came back to see if we needed anything. Our server was just hanging out chatting up the hostess. We had to request the bill from the manager & paid at the hostess stand. Before paying, I spoke with the manager and explained what had occured. He was more professional than the server, but he was still dismissive of my concerns and of the service we received. Management seemed happy enough to promote the "option". The food was okay, definitely not enough to make up for the poor service and handling of a serious dietary issue. Needless to say I will not be returning.

Excellent high end pasta in the West Village…read more Food: 5. Service: 4.5 Atmosphere: 4.5 Cost to worth it rating: 3 Opentableable: no but Resy 14 days prior Return worthiness: yes Highlights - Bianco Bolognese: never had that before but was fantastic. Light combo of veal, pork, and chicken in the stunning thick housemade pasta. 5 stars - Beets: gold and red wedges with a wonderful pesto and ricotta with green sprouts. Excited cause it wasn't the standard goat cheese pairing. 4.75 stars - Caccio Pepe: wonderful version with great balance of pepper and cheese and toothsome pasta. 4.5 stars - Sausage rigatoni: mild with broccolini and Parmesan mixed it was a sleeper. Sausage could've bit more flavor and spices. 4.5 stars. - Chicken: juicy breast with some charred spices. 4.25 stars - Hanger Steak: sold option with extra crispy potato wedges, 4.25 stars - Olive oil cake: soft with the browned edges. 4 stars - Wines: wonderful Italian options by the glass or bottle. - Cocktails: top notch with a lychee foam passionfruit tall glass and a bourbon pineapple. - Jean: wonderful waiter who had great recommendations for food and wine and a nice demeanor. He also was nice to put in an order for plain pasts for my teen son (to eat in addition to his steak) - Lively vibe - Heard that do have a gluten free pasta even though it's not noted Midlights: - Upstairs dining room is a totally different experience than the downstairs. Downstairs is more swanky and romantic. Lowlights - One staff member: blonde lady rolled their eyes at me when I asked for the leftover focaccia in a box which was uncalled for. - No plastic utensils available for leftovers which was odd since they do takeout and delivery.

Unbelievably good! I had to savor each bite…read more Visiting from out of town, we took a seat at the bar. We enjoyed the casual atmosphere. We started with the Focaccia bread and if that was the only thing I ate, I would have been more than satisfied. We shared a salad and the roasted mushrooms and it was heavenly. I had the ravioli, another had the Cacio de Pepe and another the mushroom ragu. Everyone was more than happy with their dish. We finished with the olive oil cake. It was the perfect way to finish the meal. Definitely recommend!

Tavola is still my favorite Italian place in the City. I love everything about it. No notes…read more I always have the same pasta thing, but I know everything is fantastic because I've brought enough people who have ordered different things here to know that everything is good. Also, have their espresso and cheesecake after your meal. They make an old school Italian cheesecake that is incredible.
