I came here with a group of co-workers, since we were enjoying a very late holiday lunch. Obviously I didn't make the reservations, as being a vegetarian there wasn't too much for me on the menu. However, the staff were more than happy to engage me…More »

We stayed in New York at the end of September 2009, and went to this restaurant since it was in the Sex and the City movie and we are total nerds for the show. I didn't realize until we got inside how huge the restaurant is! Each room seems to have…More »

The BF (like most men on Valentine's Day I'm sure) waited until the day of to make a dinner reservation for us. All of his first choices were fully booked, so he booked us in at Cioppino's. Now, we have nothing against this restaurant, but as two…More »
