My daughter and I loved sitting at Cecconi’s and watching the East River flow with the Manhattan skyline as the background. View aside, the food was delicious, creative twists on Italian classics. The salads were fresh, pasta perfectly cooked and portions ample. Our waiter was very attentive, all of the staff pleasant. We will go again as she lives nearby. Plus, it is a charming part of Dumbo. 5 Stars!! 🌟

Great experience, we were a group of 4 and everything was great, except maybe the hash browns, too crispy. Best flat whites in America so far. Super relaxing ambiance, cozy by the windows. Loved the vibe of the guy who checked us in, he was inviting & naturally genuine. I’ll be back and back and back.

Samier and his staff provide a wonderful experience. The Goan Indian food they prepare is delicious. Say good bye to Butter Chicken and open up your taste buds to other regional Indian cuisine. You won't be disappointed.
