My girlfriend and I went for a late Valentine’s Day dinner and were so impressed. Sandro, the owner and sommelier, treated us with a great bottle of wine and actively had conversation with us. At the end of dinner, I was surprised to see on the bill that he had given us a discount on the original price. The food was intricate, tasty, and perfectly portioned. The staff were very accommodating too. We will certainly be going back!
I’ve lived in New York / the Upper East Side for 9.5 years. Been everywhere. This is hands-down the best Italian food (and service) in the city. Why? Simple: the ingredients are top-notch, and Sandro / Anna / Sandro Jr know how to build a dish and deliver impeccable service. As a further testimonial, I brought my leadership team here a year ago and they still talk about it. Other venues may have the glitz and glamour; Sandro’s has the ingredients and the service. Pro Tip: the Spaghetti A Limone is *the* dish. Burrata with prosciutto and melon has an appetizer also a critical play. Enjoy!
Good Italian restaurant on the UES, but not the best in the area.
