    The food is always good. If osso buco is that day's special, you should order it. It is melt-in-your- mouth tender. This restaurant has become our go-to place for special occasions.

    Il Tinello is one of those restaurants that as soon as you leave, you can’t wait to return. It is so warm, comfortable and beautiful inside. The food is also excellent. Our table had the osso buco, the pork chop, one of the specials Chilean sea bass, and the cacio e pepe. Caesar salad and burrata to start. The ceasar salad and cacio e pepe are made tableside. Everyone at the table was more than happy with their dishes. Il Tinello is a wonderful choice for a night out of fine dining and we will be back!

    We started with their homemade Caesar salad, which is always excellent. I had the Bronzino special. My wife had chicken Sorentino. We had some drinks and wine, for dessert we had cappuccino and a tartufo. It was very busy, we felt slightly rushed however, we will definitely be back. It is an upscale restaurant with upscale pricing.

    An excellent experience with a traditional Italian restaurant. The owner, Mr. Bello makes sure you are greeting properly and taken care of during your time there. Wine list is extensive (and a bit pricey) and the food is outstanding. A small restaurant with a robust vibe with today's diners, but highly recommend!

    Il Tinello is a hidden gem on East 46th Street. Classic Northern Italian Cuisine. The dishes are very consistent and they have daily specials. If there is anything that you want that is not on the menu, they would be more than happy to accommodate you. Benny, the host, is warm, friendly and welcoming to all guests.
