    The food was delicious (our party had a Caesar, & mozzarella app to start, veal, chicken and two pasta dishes, then tiramisu). The service was impeccable. We love the old school vibe of the place with black tie waiters, white tablecloths, coat check girl, and pics of celebs lining the halls. Lovely Christmas decorations made for a warm and festive time. I was just sorry we weren’t there on a night with the piano player because I know from past visits that really brings the dining room alive and makes everything lively and festive. This place is reliably good and a standby for us in the city.

    This is the best Italian restaurant in Manhattan that you don't need a reservation months in advance to get in to. The food is great, the ambiance is terrific and the service is impeccable! Try the Tortellini A La Rossini. It's my go to appetizer every time I go there. NYC prices should be expected!

    Service is outstanding- attentive but not intrusive. Good pace by the servers, not rushed. Food was really good, wanted Italian and went with pasta. Small space but didn’t feel like we were on top of the next table- love the coat check at this time of year!

    The tuxedoed waitstaff was attentive and aimed to please. Coat check closet with coat check gal...cool. Elegance with a comfortable vibe. Festive holiday decor. Diverse menu with some unique specials, as well as traditional choices. Looked like a local crowd, not necessarily a tourist crowd. Wonderful day in NYC with a wonderful dinner at Rossini's. A great way to top off the day. I already recommended it to a friend.
