Sandro's - New York

Great neighborhood spot. The service is very friendly and they really take care of you. Quiet, an older clientele. But casual. The food is very good. Pastas cooked well. Needed a little more Sauce or flavoring in my opinion.

Excellent meal food was amazing. Recommend the calamari, the lemon pasta, and apple cake for dessert.

It's a certain genre of feel good old fashioned not cheap upper east side italian that will always hit the spot. This one differentiates itself with generous amuse bouche, great amatriciana, highly attentive service and large portions.

Sandro's is easily the best Italian restaurant on the UES, and potentially throughout the city. It's classic and traditional. Exactly what you'd expect, but better than you can imagine. To top it all off, it's family-owned, and the waitstaff is the best I've encountered. When you step in, it doesn't feel like you're in Manhattan anymore. It feels like you're at a friends' house. I couldn't recommend it enough.

This place is so good I managed to squeeze in for seats for two at the bar at peak hours and am so glad that I did. Everything was incredible, highly recommend the homemade fettuccine bolognese. I was sitting at the bar, and they just kept giving me food incredible bread, freshly baked cookies, excellent liquor. 6/5 stars.
