The last time I went to Il Cantinero was 20 years ago. And I remember having a wonderful meal then, and we had a great meal this time. The service was exemplary and efficient. The food was exquisite. I ordered based on the suggestions from our waiter. If you are a lover of food from Northern Italy, this is your place. If they don't have what you want on the menu, or you're not interested in their daily specials, they well make anything for you, as long as they have the ingredients. This place is … – show
We inadvertently dined here last night. Our driver dropped us off here instead of a different restaurant where we made a reservation. What a wonderful mistake it became! After realizing the mix-up with the staff, we decided to dine here instead of going to the other restaurant. They had a table for our party (11) since it was on the early side. The restaurant has gorgeous fresh flowers throughout. They care a lot about your experience and creating a beautiful ambience. The chandelier is magnific … – show
I never write reviews and have never written a bad review, ever. Even for not great experiences, you want to give the benefit of the doubt it was just a bad day etc but this was next level. We had a reservation, but were waiting for 5+ min in the restaurant for someone to greet/seat us.

Proper, old school Italian with great service. Small, elegant bar, great cocktails to start. For appetizers have the classic Caesar salad, grilled artichoke, or burrata.

There is a gluten free spaghetti option if needed, no GF bread…wine list is very balanced with a great selection, both the regular and reserve list depending on budget. Don't miss it, boo … – show

Really cute, romantic spot that seemed to be populated by local regulars. There was a buzz in the air that made the ambiance feel electric and comfortable at the same time. Very fast service with excellent quality food. Hearty Italian dishes that, instead of being ground-breaking, are familiar and homey in the best way possible. They also had ENORMOUS floral arrangements that smelled so good. Definitely a spot to return to.
I deliver for UBER EATS every time I come here to get an order, I Always get treated with respect courtesy, which I do appreciate after picking up order's in other places. Seriously, kudos to this place the staff.
Idk where these reviews are coming from this place is like an expensive Olive Garden. Old school Italian food which is fine by all accounts but omg so expensive
One of our favorite dinner spots in Manhattan. Delicious with impeccable service.
