Reviews for Barolo East in New York, NY
I think the service was the best part of the experience and the restaurant. They are helpful and welcoming and seat you pretty... quickly. They have a good amount of space as well with an upstairs area which is brighter and more open as well as a downstairsspace for the restrooms. The food was good - everything was fresh and well prepared. They also work with you to make sure youenjoy your meal. Read more
Great location, atmosphere, hospitality & service... We enjoyed every dish... Delizioso! ????????
I only came here because my favorite Italian spot was booked for the evening. Like the commenter before me I’m surprised at... the higher rating on this restaurant. I’m giving stars for service, delicious wine, dessert, and charming ambiance. The foodwas mediocre at best. Calamari was cold, tasted frozen and too fishy and the bolognese was so bland very little flavor and thesalad was nothing special just an overpriced plate of arugula. I was super disappointed in this meal after reading reviews onthe food. The lava cake and ice cream is hard to mess up so we finished with dessert and espresso and it was the best part ofthe dinner. So if you want wine, dessert, and coffee this may be it but if you want delicious, flavorful Italian this is a nofor me dawg. Check out my reviews for the absolute best Italian in nyc. Read more
Amazing place, so cozy and beautiful.. food was delicious. Salmone is a must, best thing? they use olive oil! 4 stars because we... felt pressured for leaving. Read more
Stopped in with my partner last night for dinner before leaving the city. The ambience is intimate, the food is flavorful and... decadent. If you want classic Italian food with attentive staff, this is the place to go. We will definitely be back. Read more
Outstanding Italian restaurant in midtown. Cozy, relaxed atmosphere, great service, excellent food and wine. Indoor and... outdoor dining available. We will definitely dine again when we are in NYC. Read more
I sat outside where a sign noted the area to be active for service. However, it took roughly 15 minutes before one of the... managers asked if I could be helped; he did not approach me, simply called out from the restaurant to mid street where the seatsare placed. The lack of professionalism and unwelcoming tone starts the rating at 2 stars. I was then taken to their patio whereit was not crowded, the temperature was perfect and atmosphere was calming; less of a family place, rather more suitable for aromantic moment or professional meeting. The patio was clean and tables stripped per service. I asked the assigned waiter--Andry(phonic spelling)--for suggestion in soup (priced $9 ea.), main course, wine, and desert selection. He was knowledgeable ofingredients for different dishes and pairing of wine for each. I chose the asparagus soup, which I do not recommend as it wasbland and...not memorable. Lentil soup's texture and flavor was either great or the change from disappointment made it better.Tangy. Fettuccine with Bolognese sauce is always safe choice; pasta cooked to perfection (al dente), sauce was lightly seasonedallowing the meat and sweetness of tomato sauce to standout. And do not leave without having an espresso or their ice cream andapple crisp desert. Fresh...enough said. Ohh...and do not skip on their bread and sundried tomatoes that is placed at the table.Overall, a 4 star rating for good food and great service provided by Andry. The missing star is for bug in salt shaker, bacteriabuildup in bathroom sink, and unwelcoming tone of manager when we first met. Read more
Beautiful atmosphere, excellent service, and superb food! Highly recommend. The sauce on the Pollo dolce vita was delicious and... the homemade tiramasu is a must! They have a wonderful selection of wines at half or whole bottle. We enjoyed everything weordered and were very satisfied with the whole experience! Read more
