Spolini's — Restaurant in New York

If you have little ones 4 and under do not go here. My friend and I had a horrible experience. We met after a while of not seeing each other and decided to stop here to eat because the place was empty just another customer alone. We ordered a pizza for the kids which they all ate a slice from. My friend ordered some stuffed chicken which was okay. I ordered the eggplant parmigiana which I barely ate from because it tasted weird. I’m not Italian and I make a better one. The eggplant tasted frozen. They accompanied each of our plate with pasta which it tasted OK I’ve had better pasta as well. Kids were full and did not wanted it to be seated because people and dogs were passing by. They we’re playing from the sidewalk to our table and laughing, they were having a good time until one of the owners which was outside seating went inside and then came back out and told us if we could control the kids. They were not touching or braking anything, they were just enjoying their time together. I don’t like to argue, all I said was can we get the check please, the waiter asked if we wanted to pack the leftovers I said NO thank you, the food wasn’t that good to take home anyways. Our kids are 4, 3, 2 and 1. We paid for the food and left. I’ve never experienced this in any...

This was our first time dining at this restaurant, and I'm so glad that we did! Normally, we always walk by the restaurant and never took a chance to eat there. However, we decided to try it today, and may I say this is one of the best dining experiences that I have had on the strip. We sat outside for the outside dining, and it was nice. i do wish the seats had more cushion they are a bit hard. For our courses we had the fried calamari which tastes very fresh and it was breaded so perfect. Every bite was delicate and light, so we didn't feel stuffed when our entrees came. For the main course, we had the chicken parm, and the portions of pasta and chicken were absolutely perfect. I always prefer more chicken than pasta, so I don't feel so bloated. Dessert was a PERFECT Canoli and crembrule! The crust of the Canoli was perfectly crisp with every bite and was not doughy at all! And the filling?! My goodness was absolutely delicious. Finally the service, we had an amazing server his name was Larry, and he made our first experience absolutely unforgettable, we look forward to...

Sergio, the owner is extremely unprofessional. My fiance and I are having our church ceremony for our wedding on August 23rd, 2025. We originally agreed to a 4pm - 7pm event at Spolini's after the ceremony. After initially agreeing on 4pm, my finance and I requested we move the booking back slightly from 4pm to 4:30pm because our wedding ceremony was pushed back. Sergio agreed to this new time slot, so we figured no problem.

I think Sergio must have been in a bad mood when I tried to drop off the deposit a few days later because when I arrived, he was giving me so much attitude and told me that he could no longer honor the booking because "you're the type of people to overstay after 7pm." whatever that means. Even after showing him the email exchange where he agreed to the new 4:30pm time slot, he continued to be rude and very dismissive.

Please do not book this restaurant for any type of event. Really...
