Drinks are reasonably priced and decent. Pasta in Bolognese , FABULOUS!! Sausage and broccoli raab, FABULOUS! Atmosphere, Service, all FABULOUS!! No booths, but there is a respectable amount of room between the tables. Sadly, none of the old school standards like Veal Parmigiana etc., though what is offered more than makes up for it. We loved this place, and will definitely be going back. If you don't live on Staten Island, it's worth the trip.Freshness and quality literally screams from the dish. Very nice presentation as well. Again, the old school standards aren't on the menu. We can't wait to try some of their other dishes. This place is a find!! read less

I've gone there a few times now, and the atmosphere is incredible. On Fridays and Saturdays, Nicola sings "O Sarracino" and gets the entire restaurant singing, dancing, waving napkins. The food is legit Italian food. The whole experience is amazing. Highly recommend this place!!!! read less

When my husband and I first walked in and were seated at our table we were a bit surprised at the loud music and the singer walking around. There were many large tables of 8+ people and as the night went on it was apparent that this is the best way to enjoy the restaurant. After reading one review where they were upset for being turned away since they did not have a reservation it’s because everyone stays the whole night. Later in the night the staff brought out utensils and pans from the kitchen and handed them out to everyone. We then proceeded to bang on them to old classic Italian songs. Other patrons later got up to sing and even one of the cooks joined in. We felt like we were in a little village in Italy celebrating with the locals.
Regarding the food, we got the impression that they prefer to make food suggestions and serve it family style but since we didn’t want the same food, we asked if we could order off the menu and they happily obliged. Everything from the drinks, to the appetizers to dinner to dessert was excellent. The seafood was freshly made as was all the other items.
So if want to enjoy this experience, invite all your friends and make a reservation! read less

Tonight we ordered the filet mignon and the branzino fish and both were cooked to perfection. This isn't your run of the mill Italian restaurant in Staten Island - the menu is well thought out with a top notch chef behind the food choices. On Saturday nights, the owner joins the entertainment and also sings older Italian songs , he's got a voice that would put most people on american idol to shame. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for an exquisite meal - I would caution however that it can get quite loud when the singing starts but that's really the restaurants charm. read less

Ciro and his ability to sing in a great voice that he has,he is such an Entertainer that there is no way you going to go there and not have a good time. I believe it's Fridays and Saturdays only for the live entertainment I can't say enough good things about this place the only thing I can say is go there enjoy the food and you're going to enjoy the company it's such a great place to go to. read less

It is very authentic Italian food unlike anything else you can find on Staten Island. In my opinion it could be the best Italian restaurant on the island. The food was so different and tasty. We had paccheri pasta and gnocchi with seafood that we haven't experienced anywhere else. Both the presentation and the taste were of high quality.In addition to the food being great, the service is also top notch. The chef himself walks around and speaks to the tables, gives great recommendation and makes it feel like a real family atmosphere. We will definitely be returning quite often! read less

I came with my boyfriend on a Saturday and was greeted by Salvatore my maitre d and chef. Upon sitting he handed my date and I a champagne glass with strawberry. A nice start to a great dinner. I went on to have the seafood risotto which was divine. Lots of seafood and the risotto was cooked to perfection. My date had the ribeye and that also was perfectly cooked. The Demi glacé served with it was beyond delicious. To cleanse your palette the server sets down a fruit platter with watermelon, fresh cantaloupe and grapes. A great end to an amazing dinner. We also had the white sangria served in HUGE glasses. Overall a great night with great food and I felt like with great friends. 5 star!
And ps! To continue Salvatore the GREAT gave us a huge serving of Godiva chocolate mouse. I will be back again and again!! read less

Parking was good as it is in a mall area.I ordered Calabrese salad(mixed Salad topped with Prosciutto, Provolone, Salami and Olives) for dinner later, and a Vastedda(spleen sandwich topped with ricotta and cheese) for a friend.Will return.

My mother-in-law, who is Neapolitan and who is a great cook herself, picked this place. At the first glance I was not impressed at all - very ordinary looking place in a big shopping plaza... But when they started bringing the food out - it was totally a different kind of experience. The food is super fresh and OUT OF THIS WORLD delicious! They actually have an Italian chef from Italy who cooks family style meals for you. My family is very picky when we eat out. Everything was top notch from the appetizers to sea food to meats. They have a great entertainment as well with live music on Saturday. Perfect place for young and old to celebrate an event, enjoy the food,vino and have fun! Check it out! You'll absolutely love it! read less

On a Saturday night, the place is not a romantic escape for two lovers nor a quiet dining spot for elderly. But if you have a family celebration and seeking a fun place with the top notch Italian food, great selection of wine and live music entertainment, you should definitely check this out and I assure that you wont be disappointed. The best place in all Brooklyn and Staten Island! Authentic Italian food (they have Italian chef from Italy in the kitchen), great service and atmosphere. We paid around $240, drinks included for a party of 4 adults and two children. This is price you would pay in any other place for dinner these days. But the quality of food is simply a whole different level, absolutely the freshest and the best. read less

This place is fun and delicious. We went for a birthday party and our waiter was incredibly charming. We had a prefixed menu and by the time we got the third course our waiter turns into a singing waiter, belting out some classic Italian, feel good tunes! The food was delicious too. The brannzino fish was perfectly grilled, tender and the portions were tremendous. This place was great. Highly recommend for a dinner out with friends.
