    One big fraud. Looks good , feels good , but the food is just not good. For the price you are paying you can have a more enjoyable meal at neighborhood pizza shop for a tenth of the price . Great service , wish the food was the same. Every dish lacked flavor , was not wowed from even one bite. Waste of $

    Still one of the best Italian options. Starts with the bartender and the hostesses. Some offerings are simply sublime. Others strong contenders. Wine list is essentially Italian and varied. Expensive but worthy. Service is perfect. And engagingly friendly.

    If you are looking for a sophisticated, high-quality Italian restaurant to celebrate a birthday, close a deal, or simply to enjoy the company of good friends, then Gattopardo is your restaurant. From the receptionist who greets you to the waiter who serves as your guide to your meal, you will be well served by eating at this midtown Italian nestled in a beautiful brown stone across from the Museum of Modern Art. The food is impeccable and always fresh and innovative while being grounded in classical Italian cuisine. And the ambiance is modern and restrained in a very pleasing way. I highly recommend this restaurant to New Yorkers and visitors alike.

    Excellent food. Dining rooms is a bit spartan and a bit loud. Great location midtown, but it’s essentially underground … no windows, low ceilings etc.
