Steer Clear of this place! - It's confusing so many people are giving "positive reviews", in fact i don't EVER recall seeing SO MANY 5 star reviews for any place I've ever been. Based on my experience I have to believe most of them are not real.
Menu on the web is a cornucopia of american favorites, once in the place the menu is roughly 2 dozen grossly overpriced fairly unrecognizable items (2 Arancini appetizer, each one roughly 2 times the size of a Hershey's kiss - $13???). When asked why they were advertising food they didn't serve the reply was "we haven't updated the web yet". (First time I've eaten in a tavern that didn't have burgers)
The place has all the ambiance of a high school cafeteria, one long table against a built in bench along the wall. Very loud and almost impossible to relax and have a conversation.
Food was only OK, certainly not worth the prices that sea cliff can command - far better can be found elsewhere for less.
Staff was excellent. Bread had the consistency of a sponge you would wash...
Read moreI absolutely LOVE this Restaurant!!! Cute, sexy, intimate Italian restaurant located in the heart of Sea Cliff.
I am here at least once a week especially for their Pasta Tuesdays (half off pasta)! The menu is quite small at the same time, they have different specials each week. The Special Veal Appetizer they had was exquisite as well as the Spaghetti Carbonara. Meatballs and Arancini are pretty decent, and the Eggplant Parmigiana is delightful.
Although this is one of my favorite places to eat in the area, I do wish they had some more authentic Italian options.
Each drink is made to perfection, my go to would be the espresso martini!
The staff is knowledgeable and accommodating always have their best face on with great spirit!
The prices are pretty high up there so dont come with a cheap mindset! I would also advise that if you are going on a weekend to make a reservation as they do fill up...
Read moreI don't usually post reviews about restaurants but I'm going to start now. I don't like being rushed out of my seat before I had a chance to enjoy my food. The service was very good the waitress was very nice and attentive, maybe too much so. We barely finished our appetizer they we're already asking if we were finished. There was still food left on the plate and they wanted to clear it. I'm tired of going to restaurants and being rushed out. The meal wasn't cheap, I don't mind spending money on a good meal if I get a chance to enjoy it. It was my wife's birthday dinner and we were there barely over an hour. They got us out in record time giving them more profit but at what cost. I will not be returning. It's a shame, I did...
