It would have been five stars had they not taken so long to give us an extra plate we requested so to share appetizer. The food was absolutely amazing. Had the pasta fungha. The bread and olive oil was also great.
Dinner mid-May, slightly off season but one of the better options in EH. All our dishes were delicious and well made. The calamari and zucchini appetizer was lightly fried, fresh and tasty. The eggplant Parmesan was very good. The minestrone was a little disappointing personally, a little thick, almost like tomato sauce, and the flavor was a bit sharp, perhaps too acidic.
Not cheap but for the Hamptons not too crazy either. Lovely service.
Energetic atmosphere, service was good, and food was well prepared and tasty. Definitely will be back.
For Saturday lunch, wonderful food, the chef is excellent, the decor is classic europe ideal. The service is not so classic. The waitstaff ended my sentences. The flatware are laid on the table wrapped in paper serviettes. The tables are so close together that people were bumping against my seat. There were some fabulous semi circular booths for groups that wouldn't get bumped. They did find me a glass of port, not on the menu, to have after the meal. But all these details stopped the place from being luxuriois
I recently ate dinner in Cittanuova -- we were a party of three. This has been a go-to restaurant for me for so many years, that I nearly forgot to post the 5 star review that it deserves. Cittanuova always has fantastic fresh food, excellent preparation, timely service with a smile, and a superb atmosphere. They don't take reservations - which is a plus because you can always get in and the wait is never long. The garden in the back is my favorite place to sit. We ordered the pizza and salad to share as starters, and our entrees included eggplant parm, pasta with clams, and pasta with sausage & broccoli rabe. Everything was amazing, and we all left with a smile on our faces. I will always go back to this restaurant and cannot recommend it more highly! 5 stars all the way.
Stopped in for some downtime chillin’ while visiting E Hampton yesterday, 10/24/23. We were here a year ago. We sat at the bar, ordered drinks and pondered the menu. After checking out the burger someone next to me ordered, my husband suggested I order it.
I told the bartender I wanted it medium rare and stressed the importance of it neither being over or under cooked. He acknowledged my request and put the order in. I order a hamburger once every six weeks so getting my order right was especially imperative, as I can’t tell you how few restaurants get it right which is very frustrating because I never send my order back to the kitchen.
(When we want a more than decent burger, we go to Tweeds in Riverhead.) Suffice to say, this was the very BEST, most delicious burger I’ve ever tasted!!! It was juicy and cooked to perfection!!! OMG!!!
Great place, reasonable prices. Several seating areas for different moods. Outdoor seating overlooking the street, dining room seating, and in the rear of the restaurant is another semi-outdoor dining area with a waterfall for ambiance. Food was great. The ministrone soup was fantastic, and the rice balls were excellent. Veal piccatta was also great. Great location in East Hampton, and the service was great. We'll be going back again soon.
Excellent calamari appetizers, great meatballs, eggplant, excellent friendly service. Can get a bit tight if you are seated near the bar, but the more the merrier, a sign of a good healthy business.
Delightful lunch outdoors. Highly recommend their Octopus appetizer. Other nice dishes include the Bolognese pasta, Kale pizza and chocolate bread pudding (enough for two). Their Americano was watery, but all else enjoyable.
Had a great Meal at this place , arancini appetizers were not the best to be honest more like mozzarella sticks … but the tagliata di manzo e chicken milanese omg so good !!!
Espresso martini was just perfect !!
Only one thing as a person that it’s in this industry I think staff need to be more professional and smile a little more , I know the season is slow now but for costumers that come during winter they should be happy , and probably less on their phone it’s not nice to see them on their phone meanwhile you’re waiting to ask for plates !!
But beside that I totally recommend it great spot !!
Thanks again
