This was one of my worst dining experiences ever in the city. I had the polpette, linguini frutti di mare, and branzino. The food was mediocre at best (insanely salty) and the service was some of the worst that I've ever experienced. The employees are rude and I could barely hear myself in this tiny loud restaurant. Worst of all though is the cleanliness of this establishment. I saw a rat in the back of the restaurant towards the kitchen when I went to the restroom. I am so insanely disgusted by this place and all should STAY AWAY. Meal type: Dinner Food: 2 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1

When you move to a new place, I recommend that you go grocery shopping immediately. If you don't, you end up just going out constantly and spending a s**t load of money. That is what happened when we moved. We had no food in the house for dinner so we kept going out. And I swear, between going out more because we have everything around us and restaurant week, and buying the occasional salad for lunch, I must've gained like 10 pounds (insert eye-roll emoji). Anyways, there are 3 Italian restaurants right on our block, this place being one of them. We did try the other one, too, and that review will be released shortly. Back to 83 1/2, the restaurant is a bit smaller but the food was amazing. I got the papperdelle with duck ragu and A got the trofie pasta, which was the trofie style pasta with short rib. That dish was really, really, good. I should've gotten that one. The duck ragu was really good too, don't get me wrong, but A's was super good. His short rib was tender and it was falling apart on his fork. My duck ragu was cooked well and there was a good amount of duck in the sauce. The price is also reasonable, not too expensive. It's a place that you can go to more frequently than some of the other restaurants in the area. Service was good too. The waiter introduced himself and since it wasn't too busy yet, we got a better pick of the table. It started to get busy as time went on (we did get there really early). And since I almost never go to Italian restaurant without getting dessert, we got dessert, which was the chocolate cake. It said lava cake on the menu but it's more of an actual chocolate cake. But it was very good, soft, moist, and the chocolate was rich but not too sweet. This is a place I would return to, not only because it's right across the street but also because the prices are reasonable and the food is awesome!

Welcome to the area, Anne! We're happy we could impress you with our amazing food, including pappardelle al ragu d’anatra, trofie pasta, and chocolate lava cake. And it's great that our friendly service and reasonable prices shined while you were here. Looking forward to welcoming you back again sometime!
