I love Gusto!
La trattoria used to be a favorite.
La dolce vita was good, haven't been there in a while.
Mama Santas is terrible!

This is correct. Valerio is married to Pepe's sister. Pepe's brother Alessandro has a restaurant in Saybrook, Ohio called Alessandro's. It is a hidden gem. |

There is a new pizza place going on the intersection of Cornell and Murray Hill. It used to be an art gallery. The owner is the same as the owner of Gusto!
Not sure when it will will open, but it will add to the corner with Il Bacio, Valentino's, and Baricelli Inn already there.

I went to Nunzio's Pizza while I was in town last weekend and I was very impressed. It was delicious and a very good bargain for the money. |
