Been coming here for years, the food and Service can not be matched anywhere. Great atmosphere always welcoming.

One of the best Italian restaurants in Manhattan just south of Canal Street on Baxter St. Old world class, staff friendly and the food fantastic. Reasonable prices. A touch of class evenings but crowded for noontime lunch. Parking next door to the restaurant.

We came here for my sisters Birthday based on all the reviews and it was worth the hype if not better! Our server Tony was incredible and every bit was delicious. Thank you for making this day memorable.

One of the classics in the city. Forlini's has fantastic service but it gets lost because of how long it's been here and where it's located. Location is a little bit away from "Little Italy," the only Italian space South of Canal. Food is plentiful and tasty. They have daily specials so don't skip the special menu. Lots of good Italian choices and very filling portions.

Good place for quiet lunch by the courts. Judge that wrote Carlito's way used to frequent it almost daily. Old timey vibes and good service.

Quaint restaurant with vintage decor serving your typical Italian fare. We called an hour in advance for a late lunch reservation and were seated pretty quickly after we arrived. The people working here were welcoming but our server was really sloppy and could really be trained to wait tables with finesse. The place is cramped with too many tables and was almost filled to capacity when we arrived so the noise level was quite intolerable. It did quiet down when most of the groups before us started leaving.

What can i say, service, food, and atmosphere were amazing! The waiter (Kenny) was funny and inviting! Very professional and honestly the most inviting experience I’ve ever had in New York. We fell on this restaurant by accident and now it will be a place we come back to time and time again thanks to Kenny and Joe the manager. Can’t say about great things about this place. Love it love it love it!Side note GET THE CHEESE CAKE!!

An incredible culinary experience unblemished by the hands of time.Sometimes the nouveau while different keeps us longing for those old world taste. The flavors,the dishes the specials the waitstaff are all 5 stars,top shelf no exceptions!We watched a restaurant with every table occupied still treat us as we were the only customers and delivered appetizers,intermezzo,entrees, desserts in a syncopated and timely fashion. The lamb was off the charts the osso buco fell off the bone.The cheesecake was probably made on another planet. Congratulations Derek,Charlie,Alessandro we will be back many many times.Just an experience that surpassed any expectation we might have had.

Great food and service. This is a must go to destination when in Manhattan. Every time I am in town I go here. The veal is amazing.
