Been going there forever. It’s a must for all who love an intimate restaurant with a flawless seasonal menu.
I'm there a couple of times a month. Love the 92nd Street Why, pappardelle Bolognese, and romaine caesar, and the apple/maple tart. And I love Table 6B.
Amazing when it opened, still amazing after all these years. Great food, great service, great ambience.
The pappardelle is some of the best I've ever had, the bolognese sauce is outta this world, my wife's favorite place in New York
Lovely place,amazing service great food wine is the best!!!
They care very much for their customers!! That's all you need to know..Go!
Best bolognese in the whole wide world
The atmosphere was great! Friendly staff with excellent service! Food home made and very tasty! Definitely be back soon!
One of my favorite places to eat. Great food and great service.

There are so many ways one can describe this High-end Italian restaurant. For me, I will say that I love the chandelier-lit dining room that has a rustic European ambiance with rustic wood floors along with carved out wooden tables.
This restaurant appears on a corner of Lexington and East 92nd Street in a very unassuming part of Carnegie Hill stretching into the northern part of the Upper Eastside. My daughter recommended me to this restaurant because she knows that I am always looking for unusual interesting new places that I have never been.
Whenever I try an Italian restaurant where I have never eaten before, I usually will ask the owner or server what are their signature pasta dishes. I tend to judge an Italian restaurant by their creative Pasta entrees first. Then the next time I dine at the restaurant, I will try other dishes while slowly learning more about the restaurant and enjoying each choice to its fullest.
For my first taste of food at this restaurant, we ordered the half portion of the pappardelle all Bolognese for an entrée, which was a combination of different meats cooked in a sauce such as veal and beef. It was wonderful and I was also very impressed how the flavors of the meat sauce just burst with flavors with every bite. With concluded our meal with a creative fig flavored gelato for desert along with expresso.
Although this was just a taste for my first visit, I will be back often. The knowledgeable servers and the chef’s passion for creating interesting flavors of Italian dishes will allure me often to this rustic restaurant.
Must go. This is the most amazing restaurant I have eaten at. Desert and dinner were both amazing. I've never had squash cooked like they cook their acorn squash and it was superb. Great and helpful waiters too. My only critique is that the lighting was too dim
Sometimes I just have to admit it: New York City’s restaurant scene and culture simply kicks Philadelphia’s ass. And times I have to admit it are when I discover and visit amazing NYC restaurants like Sfoglia on the Upper East Side. Last night I enjoyed an enchanting, delightful meal there with my sweetie on one of our rare single-day escapes to New York. We tend to end up on the UES a lot so we’ve tried a number of places in the area over the past several years, but Sfoglia was easily the most stunning to date.
What can I say, this place is a gem. Definitely more upscale considering the location, and the prices reflect that. However, what you get in return is impeccable service, delicious food and a lovely, cozy atmosphere. We ordered the Burrata with peaches, fennel and toasted hazelnuts - absolutely delicious. My wife had the branding, I had the ricotta Cavalli with egglplant, and a side of garlic sautéed broccolini. For dessert, we had the bread pudding which we had to order with our meal since it takes extra time to prepare. Everything was fantastic. We will definitely be putting Sfoglia on our "must return" list.
Sfoglia fell one Artic Char, one lettuce salad, and some minutes of slow service away from 5 stars.
But, starting with the positives. The space features rustic wooden tables and lovely decor. We loved the ravioli doppio. The dish burst with fun and unexpected flavors. The veal Milanese hit expectations but did not exceed. And, we all enjoyed the Caesar salad, but then again, it’s hard to mess up a Caesar salad.
One in our party order and Arctic char. Bad move. The fish came cooked closer to sushi levels than the medium rare she ordered. And, she was disappointed with the taste.
I’d also suggest avoiding the little gem lettuce. I didn’t like it at all, though some else in the group did.

Great Italian Restaurant in UES! Always pass by here and decided to give it a try! Food are hit or missed!
Location: It is located at UES, lexington Ave. We made reservations cause it is always packed here! There is outdoor and indoor seating! The indoor is nice, quite dark. The outdoor is nice, feels like you are in Italy. Street parking available at the side
Service: OMG our server is nice. I noticed that she is in the elderly side, and I love that, it means that the restaurant does not discriminate! Thank you for that.
Food: Food here is hit or missed! BURRATA: this was my first Burrata and it was delicious!! Omg! There are green peas on it and the burrata is so silky. SFOGLIA CAESAR: the best caesar salad I had in my life! It was perfect! Not too much or too less of the dressing and I love the anchovies on it! CURED ITALIAN MEATS: this is good as well, different types of meat with a good bread sticks! PAPPARDELE: good, taste like deconstructed lasagna! FETTUCCINI: best fettuccine that I ate, the cream and chunks of ham is good, the pasta was al dente! SAFFRON RISOTTO: the risotto was cooked well, didn’t got that much of the crab tho. SFOGLIA’S CHICKEN AL MATTONE: they said this was very popular but it was okay for me, it is like fried chicken with lemon on it. It was okay. BONE IN VEAL CHOP: another one that was okay. Expensive but it was just fried with a side of salad, nothing special for me. STRAWBERRY RHUBARB TORTA: omg this was good! The crust was so good and the filling was not that sweet which I like! The ice cream binds it together, the thing is you have to preorder this so order it on the beginning!
Price rating: 9/10, quite expensive to be honest but if you buy what I recommend you will be fine.
Will probably come back here for the Caesar salad, buratta, fettuccini and the strawberry rhubarb torta! 2 orders each!! Lol
The food and service was good, although that should be a given considering the cost. The food was very rich and large, and I regret not starving ourselves before the meal in order to enjoy it better (and not waste so much). The bread pudding dessert is worth it.
September 2020. I live across the street and this was my 1st time to dine here in 4 years. Wonderful! Great waiter, delicious food... will return. Caesar salad, gazpacho, tagliatelle *fab* and Sfoglia's chicken. Key lime pie to finish.
I’ve been going to Sfoglia for many years and it’s always excellent. If you go here, you must order the Pappardele Alla Bolognese and the Bread Pudding. Both are spectacular. Workers are all super friendly
By far the best best bolognese I have ever have is made here. The fresh made bread with olive oil is delicious, the staff is very professional and attentive, the food is made to taste and the decor makes you feel as if you were sitting in a local restaurant in Italy. This is definitely a must for both New Yorkers and non-New Yorkers. At the end of our meal we were given complementary limonccelo to end the night with a bam. I would definitely recommend this place.
One of my top 10 restaurants. The food was so delicious, the flavours were precise. The service was great. Recommended; mussels, tagliatelle with clams, pappardelle with lamb Bolognese
WOW
Best pasta dishes I’ve ever had in my life. Such awesomely intense flavors that all balance. Cocktails were okay, about average for the area. Service and atmosphere were both great.
I suggest a name change to Sfoglia Precise.
Accurate and distinguished tastes. Celebration off Italian food.
Great staff, but Cesar, one off the servers was speciall and professional.
I've dined here more than once over the last few years and the food is always very good. The service however is excellent. From the bussers to the servers to the hostess, wonderful experience top to bottom. You can go a lot of places in this city with good/great Italian, but you can only go so many places these days with great service. This is one of the few I've found. Highly recommended.
Always delicious! Great service. Beautiful ambeyonce! (Yes, intentionally misspelled). Stephanie is the BEST!

The minute I walked in I knew this was a local favorite and not a tourist place. The restaurant was packed with neighborhood locals who know this is where to go for a great dining experience! The service and atmosphere are absolutely lovely and it's just like an old Trattoria in italy. As for the food well this is the menu created by an artist. The chef takes traditional Italian cuisine paired with his own creative Artistry and the result are wonderful dishes. Unlike many places that serve you a tiny little serving on a great big plate you get your bang for your buck here with generous servings of deliciously prepared foods. I highly recommend this restaurant. It is a bit pricey but it's well worth it and you will most likely have something to take home and eat tomorrow. I plan to go here again and again this is one of the best!.
We came for our anniversary and the food, drinks and service were all excellent.
The pasta here was SO good. The service was amazing. Get the pomodoro pasta and be astounded by the depth of the flavor l. Broccolini was cooked to perfection too!
