- GGabbyBaton Rouge / Lafayette •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoSmall restaurant with amazing atmosphere. I lived in Rome for a period so my standards for Italian food are pretty high. THIS MET THAT LEVEL. The food was authentic and so was the service. The owner (I'm assuming) greeted each party with a "Ciao!" The food was top notch too. We got the Arancini Catanesi to start. Felt like I was back in Trastevere. The atmosphere was warm and inviting and noise level was energetic but not hectic. Would definitely come back during the spring/summer to sit out on the balcony.More infoPiccola Cucina UptownPrice: Moderate• Italian• Upper East Side•4.8
- AAnnNew York City •10 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoBoite en Bois provides a lovely dining experience in a small and rustic setting. All of us were very happy with our starter (escargots) and the entrees, classically prepared French cuisine. And the desserts were very good- profiteroles and break pudding. Highly recommend it for a cozy, romantic dinner or dinner with a small group of friends.More infoLa Boite en BoisPrice: Expensive• French• Lincoln Square•4.5
- SSteveVIPDetroit / Eastern Michigan •45 reviews5.0Dined on Dec 11, 2024Second time at Song, first at this location. The food here is unbelievably good. Everything is expertly made and is some of the best I have had anywhere in the world. Initially tried it because it was on a World's 50 Best Pizzas list and it absolutely is amazing. Words do not do it justice. The pastas are just as good. The gnocchi and spaghetti bolognese, although simple dishes, were just as memorable. Great friendly staff who offer great recommendations.More infoSong E Napule - UWSPrice: Expensive• Pizzeria• Upper West Side•4.7
