Yeahhh I'll start by saying our waitress Emma was great. I had been warned by a girl who used to bartend here that the owners and managers were not nice- and she was not kidding. We walked at 9PM to an empty restaurant and were stuck at a table in a small hallway with no air flow (they don't have AC. Just open windows at the front). The hostess would not sit us at a four top near the air flow, which would be understandable for 6, 7 or even 8 PM or a busy night. It was 9PM on a Sunday. You're not getting a rush- you were dead. When I asked to speak to a manager she whispered the story to him (and I'm sure her negative opinions of me) and he came over and said "how could I help you?" Okay- you can help with the situation you and the hostess were whispering about for two minutes... just come over with a solution. Don't play games. No one ever came in. They all just stood around at the front socializing. And I will never be back. read more

Saggio - The restaurant "too busy" to give two people a good table. They would really have lost money sitting us somewhere else. - Italian Near Me - New York, New York

Read the yelp reviews and decided to give it a try since it is near my parent's. Hostess was very nice and attentive, as was our waiter. We were able to quickly find a table for two. I ordered the sauteed spinach, which is nice and rich but not too much flavor, but I just love Parmesan on everything so I added it for extra flavor. Also the funnel parmesan was a good appetizer as well. One of my entrees was the Rigatoni which is made al dente were the pasta is still kind of hard (that's what she said) grow up guys!. So if you prefer your pasta softer then ask them to cook it a bit more. It has italian saugage and meatballs. Sauce was good and went well with the bread. Also had the Spaghetti al Limone (Lemon spaghetti) and added grilled chicken to it ($4 extra). Loved the texture of the spaghetti and really enjoyed this meal. Place is nice to dine and good for dates, because of the cozy atmosphere and dim lighting. Would definitely come back again and try other plates or I will come just to enjoy a glass of wine in a nice relaxing atmosphere. read more

I give 3 stars only because I've only ordered from them once and I don't want to base my rating on one meal , but I ordered the calamari in sauce appetizer and I was dissatisfied by its smell and taste . I also ordered spaghetti and meatballs. The meatballs were ok , but the spaghetti was overcooked. . read more

After following the suggestion of a neighborhood business owner and amazing insurance broker; Rey Polanco - State Farm (plug plug), my friend and I headed to Saggio's for Sunday brunch. Greeted by the nephew of the owner, Kal, we were welcomed into one of the most intimate and tasty brunch venues in Manhattan, let alone Washington Heights. The wait time here was minimal if at all. We were seated in a cozy sunken in seating area and were served water and eating utensils immediately. While waiting, we couldn't help but notice the subtle yet detailed furniture and decor choices. Cool distressed wood/cast iron tables, warm inviting mustard walls and great light fixtures. Maybe these details are a bit much, but it all counts, ya know? Food-MG. Yeah. Food My God! I ordered the baked eggs ragu and my friend ordered the organic pancakes as we both intended to share. Call me greedy, but I didn't want to share nor stop eating from his plate. We both enjoyed a hardy balance of savory and sweet with these meals along with the grilled sausage and roasted potatoes. Baked Eggs Ragu - perfect blend of savory tomato meat sauce with an egg baked to absolute perfection. The sausage included in the sauce was tender, fresh and full of flavor. This plate also came with a large slice of bread toasty and fluffy. Organic Pancakes - LARGE, fluffy and tasty alone and even better with the Maine Maple Syrup. This plate comes with fresh blueberries, blackberries and strawberries. If you order alone, you will indeed be full. Grilled Sausage - Tender, fresh and light. Full of flavor Roasted Potatoes - Amazing Bloody Mary - Absolutely Yummy **From what I understand, this location has a great garden seating area to open in the summer and serves as a great location for intimate and private events. Enjoy. You'll want to take everyone you know and try to keep this place a secret all at the same time. :) read more

Had dinner on their patio last night to celebrate my sister-in-law's birthday. The patio is really nice, but we found the food to be nothing special. The chicken was overcooked and tough. The pasta was meh. The salmon was just ok. And the waiter never checked on us for second round of drinks. We all wished we'd chosen another restaurant. read more

Pasta Al Limone... I say these three holy words as I sigh and smile and remember! I recall sitting at the bar of this quint Italian restaurant in my neighborhood and someone saying, "Why are you getting pasta?? You can make Pasta at home!". I laughed and smiled and continued to eat, then I finally said, "No, I CAN'T make pasta LIKE THIS at home!" This place is a treasure and I am officially a regular. I've tried numerous dishes and find the portions perfect and the food really flavorful and totally tops. Food NOT TO MISS: tasty crostini's for $3.! (especially the Mozzarelle with spicy oil or the special with ricotta & sopressata), the shaved fennel salad, the baby spinach salad with perfectly cooked bacon rapped around like a ribbon on a gift, the salmon, the skirt steak, the handmade gnocchi, and ANY SPECIAL (especially the BUCATINI ALL'AMATRICIANA and the ricotta pasta with various fancy mushrooms - soooo CREAMY!!) I will return again and again - especially to their bar. I find the bartenders knowledgeable, personable, helpful and full of life and humor. Very happy to have found this place. VIVA Saggio! read more

Great place in the neighborhood. Extremely accommodating. Beautiful decor. I love their cappuccinos. They have a great pale ale in a can called Pork Slap. I would definitely recommend this place. They have a brilliant salmon on the menu. One time I came here and they had game meat. It was a wonderful rabbit stew. I also love their skirt steak. I usually get it medium rare and substitute the arugula salad for a creamy mash potato and tasty gravy. Julissa is a beautiful and very bubbly and warm young lady that will make you feel very comfortable with her charming smile and witty side banter. She is a rockstar bartender and is really well versed in her cocktail knowledge. read more

BEWARE - Do not order delivery. I've been to Saggio many times for brunch and had a good experience, but I recently ordered delivery for the first time and learned my lesson. The mac and cheese was extremely runny and bland with TWO WHOLE SLICES OF AMERICAN CHEESE ON TOP and 3 chunks of stale bread. Absolutely disgusting. According to the seamless reviews, other people have received the same thing, but I didn't heed their warning since my in-person experiences were okay. Just take my word for it and steer clear unless you are dining in-person. Whoever is running that kitchen needs to be let go. read more

Consistently delicious! Great brunch and amazing dinner. Good wine! Go here! Squid ink pasta - first time trying squid ink anything and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Calamari was nicely textured (not too chewy) and sauce was good, although not very spicy as advertised IMO but still delicious. Everything on the menu sounds delicious as well. Brunch is a good deal here, their bread is wonderful and thick sliced. They grill it for brunch plates and serve it with olives in oil for dinner. Best Italian place in washington heights! read more

---------- Forwarded I've never been inspired to write a restaurant review but as a man of a certain age, I come from a place of tough love! This is the second time we have made reservations here. First time was on Valentine's Day so we did not want to judge on a night that can be off. However, we just left on a Thursday at 8pm and unfortunately we we so disappointed! Firstly, we were sat at a table that should have been only for a solo diner. The outer seat was wedged in a high traffic corner on the way to their outdoor space. Servers and diners were walking back and forth continuously before we even had our water! Secondly, when my fiancé requested another table the Host questioned in detail- and quite loudly, why we wanted to move and walked over to inspect personally. At that point my fiancé felt the need to disclose his physical disability that is not apparent to the eye- the host flatly stated "I know nothing about that" I quickly interceded and suggested a move to an open table that would work for us -if we just moved chairs. Once seated, the bread and complimentary olives in evoo arrived after our apps. The food arrived without utensils, the server never checked on the empty cocktail glasses. The food was basic, the staff searingly overwhelmed and we left feeling as if the experience was more bothersome than anything else. If your looking for a lovely date night with great food and service go elsewhere. -- Sent from Gmail Mobile I've never been inspired to write a restaurant review but as a man of a certain age, I come from a place of tough love!

Best Italian!!! But the papparadelle was pretty disappointing. Get the chicken parmigiana! And yes for the meatballs!!! The kale Caesar salad is probably the best one I've had in my life!!! Ravioli was a winner too! Def coming back!! read more

Very cute spot in Washington Heights! We arrived as soon as they opened to an empty restaurant. We were waiting for one additional member of our party, and they wanted to know how long it would be until he arrived. They said they normally wouldn't seat us without the complete party but he'd make an exception. It wasn't a warm welcome & really unnecessary since the restaurant was empty. Once we were seated, things improved! We ordered calamari & garlic bread. Both were delicious. Kids serving of spaghetti & meatballs was very generous. Midway through our meal we were asked to move tables to accommodate a large group that arrived. They gave us complimentary desserts for our trouble which was very nice. Overall a nice experience. Waiter was very nice and helpful. We will return again! read more

I love coming to Saggio. I live in the area and to find such an authentic, delicious italian restaurant nestled in the heights is such a gem! You really can't go wrong here, from the starters, to the salads, to the pasta, to the mains, and desserts!!! everything is absolutely delicious. I have been here many times and the service is amazing, it matches the quality of the food. If you come on a night Rio is working on the bar, you are in for a treat! An amazing bartender and SO fun to talk to. I love Saggio, and couldn't recommend it enough. read more

Excellent neighborhood staple. Love coming for date night, catching up with a friend, having brunch or just hanging at the bar. I love the beet salad, grilled calamari and lemon pasta. The staff is super friendly and attentive. Also, the outdoor patio is a beautiful place to enjoy an aperol spritz and some lite bites in the summertime. read more

I've dined in twice and ordered delivery twice. The good: -Food is really yummy and fresh. -Staff is super friendly and attentive -Energy is vibrant The bad: -Place is small which means you will be seating super close to others. -This also means that the wait for a table will be at least 15 minutes on the weekend. Verdict: Will definitely come back when in the mood for Italian in the neighborhood. read more

Restaurant is a little bit small, but that's typical in NY. Homemade pasta was amazing, and very quick service!

Great Italian cuisine.. One of the best grilled Salmon I ever tasted.. The salad is great marinated with authentic extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar. The customer service it's good like the food. The waitress I had was always there and asking how's the food and if we needed anything else . I discovered a great place around my area that is worth eating in . The environment was a little loud, but the place is romantic, low light. The place is designed in vintage Italian theme. I will consider coming back anytime. read more

Just finished the best meal I've eaten in 2020 so far. Which, standards have been low this year, but this place was AMAZING. We were seeing places in the area and the realtor suggested this place in the area. We got here a bit before 6 and were the only ones there, joined a bit later by those who enjoy dining a bit later like we normally do. Started with fried calamari and I got the liver pate crostini from their specials menu. The pate was so good- I forgot just how good liver pate done right is! The crostini had a garlic flavor to it as well which went with the spread nicely. And it was a good size piece for the price- larger than I assume crostini to be! The calamari was impeccable- just the right amount of breading, just out of the frier, delicious marinara sauce- oh my! What a great start! Then I got the chicken piccata special; a classic dish done perfectly. And the fresh pasta really was a highlight! A lot of times it can kind of slip into the role of "side" on a chicken dish, but here it did no such thing. Breading and sauce for the chicken/pasta was also very bright and acidic, perfect to accent the dish the way it should be! We both ended with the best tiramisu I've had at a place in NYC so far. We hope to be making an offer on a place nearby soon and will definitely be stopping by many more times in the future when we do! read more

You can't go wrong at Saggio. Dinner or brunch, the food is consistently delicious, the service is always kind and thoughtful, and the attention to detail is never lacking. I have tried almost everything on the menu, from main courses to deserts, and really everything is delicious. Fresh ingredients and by far the best Italian food on this side of Arthur Avenue. They have a great children's menu too, which our children always ask for. In the summer the backyard cafe is a transporting experience. It is such a pleasure--I can't wait to enjoy it again when it gets warm. I highly recommend and am always happy that they are in the neighborhood! read more

The. Best. Italian. Food. In. The. Heights. Period. My friend and I went here not really with high exceptions we wanted good Italian food but not the over priced pizzas or the pizza joints that serve pasta as well. So we ended up finding this place and omg we were so happy we did! I ordered the black linguini with chicken and my friend had the lemon pasta with anchovies both were absolutely delicious! There drinks were great too we had the special that night can't remember what it was cause the food was just that good. I will be returning very soon! read more

The great thing about NYC is there's always somewhere to eat, right? But sometimes hitting the same "popular" spots or even the "favorite" spots gets old. This Italian gem in the Hudson Heights area uptown is worth the travel time. The diverse menu of salads, customized pastas, frittatas and the like provides something for everyone and the cocktails are some of the best I've had; the margarita is noteworthy. There's also a nice feeling of neighborhood and community with the attentive and friendly service. read more

I love their regular pasta (ragu) and tiramisu. It's perfect! They also have a delicious brunch. Boo- but I forgot about the good-or-not service. The food/wine/coziness is tasty enough to chance! read more

I came here for dinner with my parents. It's a charming little restaurant and they have a backyard patio that is lovely. The food itself is good but not outstanding. The fresh pasta was delicious. The wine selection is good. And the price range is very reasonable. It's the kind of neighborhood spot that's great to have if you live in the area but not something you'd purposely trek up to. read more

This place is overpriced and underwhelming. I ordered the squid ink linguini and sent it back because it contained shrimp (I am allergic) and the description said it did not contain shellfish. Then had the Spaghetti Limone which was bland. No offer of parmesan or black pepper at the table. Server left empty glasses on the table throughout meal. I had to ask three different times for silverware. Given a small table near the fire exit despite entering at 5:45 PM and restaurant was mostly empty. Very bad service overall, and I hope I don't get sick from that unexpected shrimp! read more

We walked in as a party of 5 plus a baby for an early Saturday night dinner. It was busy at first and the space is very tight on any day, but when we finally got in, management and staff were very accommodating, helping us put away our stroller and providing us a high chair. They did so for three families in the 10 table-space so that was appreciated. We were seated near the blackboard specials and the waitress went into detail on each one. As a table, we ordered one Lasagna Verdi bologna and two Pappardelle Veal Ragu. We also had two people who went rogue, opting for the Skirt steak w salad and the Salmon with green beans and capers. The meals came out piping hot but no parmesan or pepper was offered. The waitress definitely oversold the specials. Nothing fit her descriptions and our enthusiasm definitely didn't match hers. The Lasagna meaty but not cheesy as promised. The veal ragu was a huge let down and tasted like something that could have come out of a can (with ver little veal to actually note). But the skirt steak was well grilled and the Salmon and accompanying vegetables were cooked to perfection It's just too bad that this Italian eatery failed in their pasta productions, making better impressions with fish and meat instead. But we appreciated the friendly service and hands-on managers. I RECOMMEND: Ordering a la carte. The specials were not as flavourful or well thought out as the random selections turned out to be. Felt like the daiiys fell of the factory line. Plus they came in smaller proportions. EXTRA TIP: Call in... even if half an hour ahead to make a reservation or advance your party's arrival. We arrived at 6 but there was a birthday party to clear so we lingered around and eventually left only to come back and be seated at 7pm. read more

"Woo hoo! As good as it gets" = 5 stars on Yelp. I wouldn't exactly say that. For the neighborhood, this is a gem though. Dishes are definitely priced on a range, which is really nice for groups with varying budgets. The cheaper/simple dishes, however, I didn't think were outstanding. The gnocchi was too mushy for my liking and the sauce was kind of bland. PROS: That being said, the seafood was incredible. Some of the best calamari I have had. Their espresso martini was also great. My Dad loved the ribs and my Mom loved the Salmon. There is not much Italian in the neighborhood, and their new outdoor patio is outstanding! Their specials are interesting, and I will head back for the mushroom pasta. The restaurant also wasn't terribly loud, so that was good for my Dad. The squid ink pasta is yummy too! CONS: Pasta was not great for being fresh made. I have been twice and the servers messed up multiple dishes and drinks from my parties each time. They were also kind of strange with rules.Maybe I am picky, but I wanted a couple side veggie dishes and a children's mac and cheese (there weren't good vegetarian options and I was trying to piecemeal something). They wouldn't do it though. I was bummed. The service is also never too good. I have had them spill food and charge the wrong bill. When I asked for a copy of the return receipt they gave me a gross, oily one picked from the trash! Gross! The place is good, I will definitely head back. But, if afforded the time, I may head down even to Harlem. Service could really improve too but for the neighborhood it is outstanding and unique. UPDATE: Brunch is amazing. Huge omelette with salad and home baked bread for under 8 bucks. Stellar! Just fix the service! read more

This. Place. Is. Awesome. I've lived in the neighborhood for 3.5 years and just had my first experience here last night. Seriously kicking myself for waiting so long to try!!! My boyfriend and I were going out on a Saturday night for a Valentine's Day date. They do not take reservations, but we arrived around 10:30 and had no trouble getting a table. To start, we ordered a delicious bottle of Sauvignon- yum! For our entrees, I chose the Spaghetti Al Limone with chicken and my boyfriend ordered the Tagliata Toscano (skirt steak). The spaghetti was absolutely delightful! So light and fresh- I ate almost the entire plate of it with no shame. My boyfriend's skirt steak was cooked the *perfect* medium well. We also chowed down on not one, but two, sides of garlic bread. Veryyy garlic-y, but we both love garlic so no complaints there. For dessert we had the Ricotta Cheesecake- which was served with chocolate sauce, whipped cream, and strawberries. Afterwards we made our way up to the bar and enjoyed some St. Germain cocktails that the bartender whipped up. Overall we had a wonderful experience and exemplary service! We will be back SOON! read more

Yep, I know I give 5 stars to many restaurants, but believe me, I love food and that is what I go for when dining out! Saggio is in the neighborhood of my daughter's apartment and we were there to celebrate my husbands birthday. What a treat it was for all of us. The bread, the polenta, the roasted beets, the roasted rosemary chicken and the chocolate, yes the Warm Chocolate Cake! Yummy! all super delicious. I will definitely visit again. The restaurant was very busy and a little bit loud, but it's New York and space is very important. Thanks for a great meal, Saggio! read more

I had come here once when they first opened and it was amazing. Unfortunately it has gotten to be disappointing. The waitress was very courteous and kind, but she didn't come back to check on us and the service was extremely slow. The food was nothing special and it was horribly bland. My friend got the steak and it was greasy and mostly fat. He couldn't even eat it all. My ravioli was undercooked and flavorless. The portions were also very small and overall it was simply a disappointing experience food-wise. Despite the beautiful setup and lovely patio, the food was overpriced and bland, to the point of being inedible. I was rooting for them but wow, what a waste. read more

Overall Excellent! I will be back. Great menu, with a lot of mouth-watering choices, but not overwhelming (which some places can't pull off quite as well... I don't like big, long menus). My wife and I started with the Saggio Caeser salad, which is black kale, anchovy's mixed in the dressing, croutons and finely sliced parmesan cheese on top. For our entree's, my wife got the Ricotta & Spinach Ravioli, which was pretty friggin good... I had the Black Linguine, which is Squid ink pasta, calamari and spicy tomato sauce. ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!!!! I loved every bite. Our daughter had the spaghetti and meatballs... and loved it. The pasta was cooked al dente, AS IT SHOULD BE! Thank you. The portions are big, at least they seem that way because we all left with more than half of our dinners, completely full and satiated. ...And I love the fact they leave a bottle of water at your table. Good job Saggio, thanks for bringing some good Italian cuisine to the Heights. We can't wait to return. read more

I am a huge sucker for a good after work drink, and I've decided that this is the BEST happy hour in Upper Manhattan. My boyfriend and I came here for an early dinner on our anniversary. We saw they had happy hour from 4-7 s o we decided to sit at the bar and order a few drinks before we got a table. We ended up staying at the bar for the rest of the evening! The cocktails were all fantastic - between the two of us we tried the Fort Tryon, the GWB, and the J-181 which was my favorite - Hendricks, grapefruit and St. Germaine! We also got two glasses of the house wine when our entrees came out, $4.5 for a generous pour which is a great deal. Our bartender was also super friendly and she did a great job of keeping up with her customers while also chatting with some of the regulars and creating a really fun atmosphere at the bar. The real star of the show here however was the food. We ordered a few appetizers to start - a HUGE plate of calamari for $8, which was neither too greasy or too chewy, and came with a generous portion of marinara for dipping. We also ordered three sliders ($3 each for happy hour) - beef with gorgonzola, veggie with pomodoro, and beef with spicy grandma sauce. These were incredible. There was enough sauce that we were able to soak up the sauce with the bread and the meatball with every delicious bite. The veggie meatball was rich and hearty, though the beef with gorgonzola was probably my favorite - I was scraping some of the sauce off the plate after we had eaten the slider! Even though the two of us were almost stuffed after the appetizers we decided to order a small pasta dish and salad to split between the two of us. We got the spaghetti al limone ($12) and the black kale caesar ($10). Both dishes were in. Freaking. Credible. The caesar had several large pieces of shaved parmesan on top, and the pasta had an amazing balance of lemon, butter, and garlic flavors. The portions were huge, and we ended up taking a bunch home. I don't often leave Yelp reviews but I had to for Saggio. This place is an absolute gem and we will definitely be back. My only regret is that we weren't able to order dessert because we were SO full. Next time! read more

Tonight was a sad night for me and my date, we have been stopping by our old favorite spots the past week because we will be moving soon. We had our first dinner date here and remember our dinner being very good. Tonight unfortunately left us very disappointed and quite appalled. Our burrata app was broken and sloppily placed on the thickest slices of very hard unripe tomatoes. Our calamari and marinara sauce were room temperature and cold, sauce seemed like it was out of the refrigerator. We looked past that and anxiously waited for our main courses... 15-20 minutes passed since we had finished our appetizers and the waitress finally came to our table and asked us if we would be interested in dessert, confused we reminded her we had ordered main dishes as well. After another decently long length of time a male server brought us our mains. I went with the roasted chicken and he got the pork chop. My chicken was pretty dry sadly but nothing compared to his pork chop. It was so overdone that the bone was brittle, completely inedible he took one bite and had to spit it out in his napkin because it was comparable to dehydrated meat. We both picked on my chicken and waited for the waitress to come back passed us, 30 minutes had passed with her walking around not coming to our table. I finally had to rudely wave her down verbally to explain the situation, we expressed our disappointment with the pork chop (didn't even mention any of the other issues) and she said all she could do was "let the kitchen know so it doesn't happen to anyone else" she then brought us our check with the uneaten dish still on it. Surprised since we both work in NYC Hospitality we asked to speak to a MOD and was informed they actually do not have a manager on duty. So we bit our tongues paid for our meal and left so very, very disappointed. I wish I could give 0 stars, lack of proper management is definitely showing in your food preparation, presentation and I really hope not but nyc food health standards with the temperatures our dishes were brought out in. read more
