★★★★★Family
“What a lovely place. The service totally makes this restaurant. Attentive, speedy and welcoming and a proper New York vibe. Food is lovely. Good menu and special recommendations which are lovely. Beautiful pasta and starters and fabulous deserts. Also really enjoyed a red wine they recommended. Not a cheap eatery but you know you are paying for quality and it’s”
★Couples
“Terrible place. We felt on the clock as soon as we arrived. Plates virtually taken out off the table while still eating. Mains seved as soon as starters removed. They couldn’t get us out quick enough. Spent $170 in 35 minutes! McDonald’s would let you linger longer.”
★★★★★Friends getaway
“I have come here for 3 years when I am visiting to participate in the NYC 1/2 marathon. Their menu is consistent and the service is on point. To get carbs before the race, I can’t think of a better option. My 2 complaints would be: 1. The salad or soup with the meal should be a small side portion”
★★★★★Couples
“Dave took a walk on a wintry afternoon to inquire if they might have a table for two in a couple of hours , and they graciously bid us welcome. We had been searching for just the place in our yearly visits to Manhattan and we found Toscana 49 to be it.”
