Coat was stolen while eating Thanksgiving dinner. They did not inform me til after we paid the $500 bill plus tip. We felt like it was an inside job. They made no effort to compensate us in any way. I honestly was surprised at the lack of caring that a coat was stolen in their restaurant. Food was okay but over priced. For such an expensive restaurant, I am still amazed there was no compensation of any kind. If you still decide to try this restaurant, I would keep your coat with you.

Our reviews had over 36 million views last year. We do not get paid we just love to eat and have fun. We really loved Altesi Upper East Side (on 64th 2 doors off of Madison towards 5th Ave). Down just 6 steps to a lovely room that has been here serving some of the best Italian meals for over 25 years. The wait staff averages 15 years of service the reason is the great food makes all the diners so happy. We started with the Butternut Squash soup which had a slight sweet flavor from the squash. It was fantastic. We also had the calamari (flash fried to perfection with a great sauce) and the sauteed artichoke hearts "Jewish Style". They were really good and buttery. I had spaghetti and meatballs which was awesome. Some of the best meatballs I have ever had (sorry Mom!!!). Maria had the chicken which only had one bone. We were amazed at how juicy it was and this is a must have if you do not want pasta. All the desserts were great. There is no dessert menu, they just tell because it changes nightly. We got 3 and I suggest you do the same. We will come back here again soon. It is really great. Check out all of our reviews. If we do not like it we do no review it so all of the ones you see are places that are fantastic. Follow us if you like. We had over 36 million views so far this year and we thank you for that. We don't get paid, we just love to eat. Be sure to click on "RobH" at the top of this review to see all of them and to follow us if you like good food and FUN. If we do a review it is because we love it.

An amazing experience. Altesi Ristorante truly outdid themselves hosting our Holiday party. This place has a special magic that our staff can't get enough of - it's no wonder we keep coming back year after year! The atmosphere during our festive celebration was nothing short of magical, perfectly capturing the spirit of the holidays. What really sets Altesi apart is the incredible combination of their food and people. Each dish is a masterpiece, blending traditional flavors with a unique twist that leaves everyone raving about it long after the party. The staff deserves a special shoutout for their warmth and impeccable service. They make you feel like family from the moment you walk in, contributing to an experience that's as delightful as it is memorable.

Caesar salad: goes hard Gnocchi: goes hard Baked chicken: goes hard Salmon: insane. Little hard to find, prices are slightly high but what are you going to do

While the food was good, what prevents this from being 5 stars is that they don’t allow you to taste the wine before ordering it. My mom was trying to decide between two wines to drink and asked for a taste of both, and they said that it is a new policy that they don’t allow you to taste the wines before deciding on it. I wanted a glass of Prosecco, but without being able to try it beforehand, I did not want to risk ordering it, and then not liking it. We have been to many high end restaurants in New York City and we have never heard of this rule before. In addition, they also do not allow any modifications to the items on their menu. As someone with allergies, this is very disappointing. I hope that they change this rule as this was a restaurant that my parents and I used to dine at a lot. So while the food was delicious, we will not be coming back to this restaurant as those two new rules that they have implemented are a very big turn off.
