    Grilled Octopus alla Nicoise
    Lexie K.

    Wonderful spot. Very small and definitely need a reservation. Nice intimate spot with fabulous food and great service. The prices are pretty high but somewhat average for Manhattan. The food was delicious. Everything we had was fresh and has great flavor. I definitely look forward to coming back!!

    Another update and this time, not for martini Monday! Shocking, I know! I brought my mom and sister here Thursday before seeing a show at the York Theater. We got a last minute reservation and were seated right away. The service was fantastic and everyone loved the food and drinks that they got. I had the penne a la vodka for the first time and added burrata. It was so delish and a vegetarian dish. The burrata made it so creamy and truly took it to the next level. My mom got a special that was an eggplant pasta dish and my sister got one of my favs, the truffle gnocchi. 10s across the board! Overall, another fantastic meal at UVA. One of my favorite spots on the UES!

    We were seated outside in the corner closest to the street. There seats were definitely crammed in - the nicest part was due to being in the corner we only felt like we were eating with one couple instead of 2+. This is very common in NYC, so not going to penalize UVA Next Door for this although I do think it played into some service related issues we had later in the night. Otherwise ambiance was nice and definitely a trendy type spot. The food was delicious. We started with the Steak Bruschetta and Meatballs Next Door, both were fantastic. Drinks came shortly before our appetizers. The pizza was my partners entree and it came out about 5 minutes prior to my pasta which was a little bizarre but fine. The server did apologize for the delay and I was able to enjoy a slice while waiting for my meal. My pasta was perfectly cooked - seafood (octopus, shrimp) was fantastic. As advertised there was a little bite. We ordered another round of drinks with dinner and were looking forward to sharing a dessert. We wrapped the second half of our pizza (which was going to make for a nice lunch) and ordered the ravioli dessert. We were brought 1 plate and 2 spoons but the rocky road ravioli never followed. We tried to get the attention of anyone which proved difficult due to our seat. It appeared our server was sent home or something because we couldn't find her and the other coverage people ignored us. When we finally got the attention of someone (it had been almost 30 minutes) we just requested the check. I had to go inside and track someone down on our way out to get them to remove the missing Rocky Road Ravioli from our bill. They were apologetic and asked if we wanted it wrapped up to go but at that point we were over it. We did stop for ice cream on our way home to scratch that itch as the neighborhood has plenty of options in that regard. It was disappointing as this was our first time at UVA Next Door and we had enjoyed meals at UVA previously. We'll be back again at some point to give them a second try and will definitely be paying more attention to the service.

    Pizza was solid but wish there were a smidge more toppings-- the pasta seems to be very popular here and I wish we got it, but there's always next time! Cheers!

    This place was great. It was recommend from a local in New York. The portion was a bit small for the price but the food was sooo tasty. The service was fast and really sweet when I left my scarf behind. Thank you!

    Gnocchi (bottom) and Capelletti (top)

    Great ambiance. The lighting isn't too dim, and overall, the vibe is very cozy. I enjoyed my experience at Uva Next Door and am excited to return. I ordered the Gnocchi di Ricotta, a balanced and creamy dish with a hint of truffle. I also ordered the Seasonal Burrata to start, a light appetizer that delivered a cool yet fluffy impression. The server and staff were also very kind, which is always a plus!

    Alison A.

    They have really huge portions and I would definitely recommend the gnocchi. Very busy restaurant so get there before the dinner rush. It took us over an hour to get our entree while the tables around us who arrived after all got served. They did offer a drink to make up for it, however it did take a really long time to get our food. Great place for people who are gluten free as they have many options for that

    I love my experience here every time I visit!! Most recently we here for my anniversary dinner and they made it so special - with a plated dessert and message to top it off! Our server Moro (unsure of spelling) was so friendly and attentive throughout, and the server that took over later, Luciano, was also good. The ambiance is dimly lit and sometimes it can get a little loud and crowded, but it's worth it! As vegetarians, I feel this spot always has good options to choose from. This time, we got the Eggplant and Ricotta, Truffle Fries, Gnocchi di Ricotta, and Pizza Margharita with added onions. Everything was fresh with good sized portions and wonderful flavors! For dessert, we got the crème brûlée cheesecake which was amazing! This is one of our go to Italian spots in NYC and the service makes it even better!!

    restaurant week at uva next door was incredible. For everything you get it is so worth the money and this is one of the only restaurant places with such a large menu to choose from that is pre-fixed. as a vegetarian too, I felt like I had tons of options to choose from and my favorite was the eggplant and ricotta appetizer. I also wanna say that the portions were very substantial and way more than a lot of other Italian places typically serve. we were so stuffed and satisfied by the end of the meal and we're so happy with the incredible and kind service that we were met with here. I also got the gnocchi with black black truffle, which I loved and I really enjoyed the mango sorbet for dessert. even though it was pretty crowded, it did feel cozy with the warm lighting and decor.

    I have nothing but positive things to say about this place. Great quality food, good atmosphere, & great service! The Sunday supper is a great deal.

    Maybe this is the least kept secrete on the UES but you have to go for martini monday! This was the perfect way to start the week with some friends. What's better than cheap drinks and delicious wood fired pizza?

    I had such a fun experience at See No Evil Pizza. The pizza flavors were incredibly inventive…read more(definitely not your standard slice) and everything we tried felt thoughtfully put together. The arancini was a standout: perfectly crisp on the outside, creamy inside, and served with a rich, delicious sauce that tied it all together. We ended on the tiramisu, which was absolutely worth saving room. It was light, flavorful, and a perfect finish to the meal. What really elevated the experience, though, was the staff. Everyone was genuinely kind and helpful--especially notable for New York--and it made the whole evening feel relaxed and welcoming. A small heads-up: it's a bit tricky to find, so give yourself extra time. That said, the hidden, underground subway setting is part of the charm and makes the whole experience feel unique. I'd love to see more restaurants creatively use these kinds of spaces in the future.

    I'm not sure why this place has made it onto so many lists, but it was pretty mediocre all-around…read more In other circumstances I might have found the colocation with the subway charming, but the space is rather cramped and hectic - to say, I was hoping the space would be something to overlook for the sake of the food. To start with the good: the arancini were perfectly passable, and the Sicilian pie was enjoyed by all. I would describe it as more of a Detroit style actually, with a super crispy crust and nice textural contrast. On the other hand, we did not enjoy the seasonal vegetable pie or the nepo pie. I generally really like this sort of no-cheese, umami-heavy pizza, but the nepo was so salty! I'm not sure what specific ingredient was missing, but missing it was. My hopes for a recreation of the rossa pie I enjoyed at Farina prior to their closure were dashed. As for the vegetable pie, the vegetables tasted like the frozen veggies one might find in what was once marketed as a "TV dinner". It was a shame, since the sauce of the white pie was otherwise pretty good.

RIGHT BY THE DOOR. Do people not realize that putting a bar near a door on a freezing cold night benefits no one? Good thing I did not order alcohol or I would have froze to death. Seriously, none of the pies stood out in grand memory. All I can think of is, well, nothing. Nothing positive anyway. The names of the pies are funny, and the staff is friendly, but besides that, the quality of the food for lack of a better word, dare I say it, sucks. Hoping to salvage the meal, I ordered their Chicken Parmesan. It was the Hail Mary pass that unfortunately did not connect. The cutlets are overcooked and dry, and the red sauce cooked with it has minimal tomato flavor. At least the spaghetti is cooked to a nice al dente and mellow garlic butter flavor, but like the sauce cooked in, it is also minimal. Part of the problem I feel is they are trying to go for a vibe that has a New York and modern feel. It does not work. Stay true to one or the other. Or at least look at other business models. I will use another pizzeria in Bushwick that exemplifies it perfectly. It is a hipster pizzeria in a hipster neighborhood. Through balance, it creates an ambiance both welcoming and warm without losing any of its Bushwick character. It does this by not beating you over the head with hipster vibes, just enough to let you know that you are in Bushwick. The band Franz Ferdinand was playing as I was wrapping up. Rather than take the pizza out, I suggest you throw it out. Overall pizza rating: 1.7/5

The first thing you notice is the main bar wall, with its exposed centuries-old brick that has survived every bit of chaos this city could throw at it. It's subtly backlit from with a warm, amber glow that highlights every single historic groove and imperfection, making the whole room look like it's breathing. I have to say the centerpiece of the entire narrow room is the bar itself, and let me tell you, it is an absolute stunner of a contrast. Instead of the usual dark, sticky tavern wood, they've dropped in a long, continuous slab of pristine, elegantly smooth white stone. It glows under the soft lighting like a block of polished marble. There are no strobe lights and no obnoxious, skull-rattling bass in this joint. Instead, the room is wrapped in a blanket of incredibly chill music that matches the pulse of the room perfectly. It's just loud enough to drown out the noise in your own head, but quiet enough that you don't have to scream over the smooth white counter to be heard. People aren't here to be seen on TikTok; they're here to disappear for an hour or three. You slide into a chair, order a proper Old Fashioned from a bartender who doesn't rush the pour, and watch the ice melt against the amber-lit brick. It's the ultimate underground exhale--a perfect, narrow slice of peace in a city that never shuts up. Cheers!
