- SSiennaNew York City •1 review5.0Dined 2 days agoTook my daughter here for her birthday and it was great They had a few shows that we didn’t expect but were nice. The Dj played a great mix of music which was also very nice . The food was great we had an awesome waiter . I can’t say anyone bad about our experience. If I had to say anything bad it would be that my husband food was cold when it arrivedMore infoVistamar Restaurant & LoungePrice: Moderate• Latin American• City Island•4.6
- AArthurVIPNew York City •111 reviews5.0Dined on Dec 15, 2024This is not your typical "pizza parlor"! Their pizza is excellent, but so is their Roast Chicken. pasta with Short Rib rags, Arancini, and most other items on their menu. Owner cares deeply about the quality of his food and service. It is a causal very informal setting. But we spent a lovely couple of hours there last night with another couple. Highly recommend!More infoCity Island Pizza CompanyPrice: Moderate• Pizzeria• City Island•4.9
