    Although the food was excellent, we arrived early with reservations due to theatre at 7p. The other patrons received Bruschetta and we didn’t along with other noshes. We were not upset because we wanted to dive in and save our appetite for entrees. After a delicious appetizer of burrata, prosciutto, bresaola with arugula, our server arrived with entrees and pepper and Parmesan cheese. Our two glasses of red wine were on the table also. After that, ghost town. I would advise to anyone going to be cognizant of wait staff. I’d go back again for the food in a heartbeat.

    Thank God, Il Tinello is top notch Italian restaurant. The food is fantastic therefore it is worth traveling to Manhattan. I parked the car in the garage across the street. My company and I were treated well as soon as I came in the restaurant. Everyone around the table were impressed with quality of food. I had the branzino fish which was delicious. My company said the veal was tender. I’m very glad that the staff acknowledged my husband’s birthday. I totally recommend this restaurant.

    Il Tinello has been our absolute favorite Italian restaurant in New York City for many years. From the friendly host and waiters to the incredible specials to the beautiful atmosphere and presentations- this jewel box of a restaurant never disappoints. The food is consistently excellent, so it’s hard to recommend any one entree, but their Lobster Fra Diavolo, Dover Sole and Caesar Salad (made table-side) are standouts. Thanks to John and everyone there for always making us feel welcome.
