I cannot say enough good things about this place.
We were walking up from Washington Square this popped up on yelp and came highly recommended - and it should be rated 5 starts not 4. Let's start with service - flawless. The server explained everything off the menu (which we ordered). Our drinks were never empty either and the Maitre d' was phenomenal. He even gave us fresh flowers to take to the friends we are meeting. The food was amazing. We split the 16oz rib eye with pasta and two weeks later and we're still tallying about the meal. It's truly that good. Cozy, classic, romantic, intimate...a true gem in West Village
Be the first to ReplyWe thought the food and ambiance was wonderful.
The service not so much. We sat for quite awhile, and I finally had to flag someone down to get our wine order and menus. Our waiter was so boring and uninspiring and seemed so disinterested in his customers. With so many fabulous restaurants in NYC, we will probably never come back.
Be the first to ReplyAmazing food.
Service was okay. Could be a little more attentive. They didn't ask if we were celebrating anything special which we were. Food was delicious though so it was fine.
Be the first to ReplyHad a very special birthday dinner here.
It's a classic for a reason. While all of the food was great, the warm service really stood out, especially for our large group. Be sure to ask about the off menu pasta trio/sampler - it was delicious.

Il Cantinori is one of the great Italian restaurants of New York City. Situated in NoHo, near Union Square, this restaurant is on a quiet street, tucked into the middle of the block. From the moment you enter you are in a cozy but classy place, with tables lit by candle light and the amazing smell of Italian herbs coming from the kitchen. You just know that the meal will be good. That sets the tone for the entire meal. Our server greeted us almost immediately and took our drink order. An assortment of italian breads can shortly after the server left to fill the drink order. They served this amazing pomodoro tomato sauce on a dish to each of us. It was not like a bruschetta topping but more like a very savory chunky tomato sauce with parmesan cheese. The temptation was to ask for more bread and more tomato sauce, but we resisted. For the appetizer we ordered the Calamari Alla Griglia. It had a light dusting of Italian breadcrumbs and cooked to perfection and topped with cherry tomatoes. It was lighter than most calamari that I've had. It was not chewy, which is a red flag for me. It was fresh and crisp. Two of us ordered the Tagliolini Neri Alle Vongole E Carciofi (Black squid ink pasta with clams), one with red sauce (special order) and one with white wine sauce. The white wine version was a bit flat. The red sauce version exploded with flavor. It was absolutely delicious. One of us ordered the Mediterranean fish special. I can't recall the name, but it was mild, not fishy, and was really tasty. The person in my party that ordered this said they would definitely order it again. For dessert we shared a cheesecake round with raspberry sauce. It was the perfect size to end the meal along with a snifter of sambuca. The glass came with 3 coffee beans, as all GOOD Italian restaurants will serve it. 3 is good luck and we certainly had good luck with this meal. I'm giving Il Cantinori 5 stars and adding it to my NY favorite restaurant list.
Be the first to ReplyI don't know where to begin.
This place is everything you want out of a swanky upper west side dining experience and more. Genuinely everything was perfect. Our server was one of the best I have ever had, and I grew up going to five star Disney restaurants in Orlando so my bar is high. The food was amazing quality and delicious flavor. Great options, great ambience inside. Everything was amazing!
Be the first to ReplyGreat food, ambiance and service.
Authentic Italian food and a great place for a large group. It's always crowded because the restaurant is just that good- make a reservation in advance.

We were accommodated for a late reservation but very much were made to feel like they were doing us a favor and we honestly would have preferred they turned us away and not looked to take our money. Food was uneven and good but not memorable and for the prices, would have expected better. We were given a dirty plate and courses removed before we could finish. Sadly we live nearby and have wanted to dine here for years and cannot see us returning. The restaurant also accommodated a large table of Kendall Roy bros adjacent to our tiny table of three who were doing shots and whooping it up which was surprising and not the vibe we thought it would be. Plenty of other lovely Italian places in NYC who treat their customers with amore and graciousness which we'll patronize and send friends to
Be the first to ReplyI'm not entirely sure how this place is rated 3.
9 stars?!?! That is a crashing shame, because it is amazing!! First of all, it's in the West Village (which is a cool vibe all the way around), has a really cool vibe and the service...off the hook. Fantastic food, good wine selection and come prepared to leave full, satisfied and ready for bed!! 5 star all the way...don't skip this place!!!

Be the first to ReplyVery nice ambiance.
Quiet, not rushed, candlelit.Good service, making solid recommendations.Pappardelle was great. Veal was very salty and overcooked. Shell ice cream dessert was okay.
Be the first to ReplyThis place was amazing!!! The service was fantastic and
This place was amazing!!! The service was fantastic and welcoming. The espresso martini was so great. The charred artichoke appetizer was really flavorful. But the lobster pasta special they had that evening was the most amazing dish ive ever had. Every single bite was heavenly and perfectly balanced. They even offered complimentary prosecco for us which was so sweet. Will most definitely come back.
Be the first to ReplyProbably my favorite Italian restaurant in Manhattan,
Probably my favorite Italian restaurant in Manhattan, especially if you love amazing pasta. From the moment you walk in you are greeted by the friendly and charming Maitre D who makes you feel welcome immediately, and are in a dark and moody environment which created the perfect dinner vibe.The food was amazing, and the service spectacular. Even the bread basket was delicious, as well as the amuse bouche our waiter brought us. I got the "Pappardelle Alla Buttera" but subbed the pappardelle with a rigatoni noodle. This pasta dish was 5 stars, cooked perfectly with a creamy pink sauce w sausage and peas. We also got the pistachio tartufo dessert which was divine, and the perfect way to end the meal. Next time I'm in Manhattan I'll definitely be heading back to Il Cantinori for another 5 star dining experience.

We were visiting from houston and wanted to try a quaint spot for dinner! We were pleasantly surprised with how delicious the food, cocktails, and service was!! The lobster specialty pasta was EVERYTHING! So good. I recommend this place to any and everyone. Can't wait to come back!
Be the first to ReplyI never write reviews and have never written a bad review,
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. When someone finally acknowledges us, we didn't get a welcome etc nothing and we get seated outside when there were a bunch of options inside. Already off to a weird start, it being such a well known restaurant with 4 dollar signs, you usually expect a hospitable greeting. We asked really nicely if we could possibly sit inside, and were ignored. All this stuff usually not a big deal but when you're paying so much money, you expect a different experience.Our waiter was odd but maybe just busy? Took another 10 minutes to be asked what we even wanted to drink, and we were just drinking waters, it took another 10 to receive those or menus. Waiter sped through the specials, didn't explain the menu at all and overall acted like he wanted to be somewhere else. Our waters tasted like dish soap and then when we actually got our food, he was lingering by our table. Just odd vibesFood: We order the burrata to start, Cacio Pepe and lambchops. Burrata was pretty good, nothing special but hard to mess up. Cacio Pepe was AWFUL, pasta over cooked / under salted, super watery sauce. It was actually gnarly and they charge $35 for it? Insane even for amazing cacio Pepe but you expect it to be some of the best you've had. Lamb chops were actually the only good part of the meal but served with cold green beans and old potatoes.Overall - this was probably the worst dining experience my partner and I have ever had. We love to go out to eat and try new restaurants (we were super excited about this one) and it was actually the worst experience on every level. Service, food, and coupled with the absurd prices? Highway robbery.Don't waste your time, go anywhere else in New York you'll have a better time and better food.

The sauce is amazing, red sauce but much creamier than the traditional style, a generous amount too. I was only offered main course menu, but they have a good amount of alcohol selection. They provide a basket of bread before order and desserts after meal, very cute desserts!

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.

A lovely evening from start to finish!We started with the Zucchini salad which was fresh and bright, perfect on a warm evening. The tomato and bread served as we enjoyed our Montepulciano was fantastic. I enjoyed the Farfalle, and the Husband had the veal which he said was wonderfully prepared. The Profiteroles were the perfect finale to a wonderful meal. the ambiance and service is old world in the best possible way. We look forward to our next visit.
