One of my most favorite places in LES. Starting with wonderful attentive staff, incredible house wine and the prices are so reasonable; amazing pasta, apps, salads, desserts. I've been here probably 25+ times and I also ordered! Delicious, and sweet ambiance too
I was so impressed by Spaghetti Incident! I'm surprised more people aren't talking about it. We were struggling to find a last minute dinner spot on Saturday. Many places in the area were all booked up and we saw an opening here, it ended up being such a delicious meal. The restaurant is cozy and dimly lit. Not a huge space, probably best for a date night or a small group of friends. Their menu is stacked with pasta dishes, and the waiter told us about some specials. Some options include fresh pasta, others a dry pasta, but all of that is detailed on the menu. To start, we shared their Arancini Mix. This was a fun app, we all had different favorites. For main, I ordered the Chitarra pasta which was a fresh tomato sauce with pieces of mozzarella. We also got the rigatoni salsiccia and the mushroom truffle pasta. Our table also ordered the special pasta of the night which had pancetta in a cream sauce. All the food was really delicious. It tasted so authentic and fresh. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place! It's a very good option in the area.
4 stars is just about right. I remember it tasting like 5 stars years ago. I'm mostly giving them kudos for homemade pasta and homemade taste. Food was all missing some flavor.
Cozy dining room and friendly staff. The wait staff was super helpful and as usual we went in without a reservation and they graciously gave us a table immediately. Started the meal with a mix Arancini, all three were flavorful and crunchy as anticipated, lasagna and ragu bolognese for our main course and ended the meal with a chocolate cake. Nothing to be blown away by but overall a good meal.
As someone with several food allergies, i am always expecting to find very little options available to me, but that was not the case here. The waiter told us that everything is made from scratch and helped me find the best option for me. The chicken cutlet was fantastic, thin and crispy, and the arugula on top was fresh and light. My friends got pasta dishes that all looked amazing. I would recommend this restaurant! Make sure to make a res, cause it gets busy and is a total hole in the wall.
Nice little pasta spot down in the LES. Service wasn't the best but we were seated outside so not sure if it's better inside! Not my favorite pasta spot, but definitely a good option in the area
enjoyed this Italian hole in the wall. pesto was omg! cup of parm was a nice sensible touch. good wine by the liter
Celebrated a friend's birthday party here and it was perfect! There were 5 of us, and we had a little corner towards the front, but didn't feel the cold from outside at all, so I feel like anywhere you sit you'll be fine! We shared a mix of the 3 types of arancini ($17): - beef ragu & fontina - artichoke & parm - pesto & Gorgonzola At first, I thought the beef ragu & fontina would be my favorite (meat lover!), but I actually was really impressed by the artichoke and parm! All 3 are good, so the mix is my rec! One of the pasta specials was a good ol' squid ink pasta with either shrimp & other seafood or crab meat ($27). I love a good mix (can you not tell from my arancini choice, lol!), so I went with the shrimp and other seafood option and it was so good! Everyone's dishes were good, and I would definitely come again! The portions are deceivingly filling, so if you are getting your own plate, be prepared!
4.5 stars! Very accommodating and friendly staff for my birthday party with 16 friends. We all got different orders and drink and we brought a cake. Everyone loved the staff and food was nice.
I went here for a lovely dinner with three classy ladies. It was an evening filled with fresh handmade pasta, sinfully creamy tiramisu, and a year's worth of catching up amongst friends At first, I was thrown off by the name spaghetti incident. I didn't know what to expect - would it be touristy? Would it be kitschy? It was none of those things. Instead, I was greeted with a warm, intimate setting and authenticity. The food was prepared with such care, was perfectly portioned, and tasted unbelievably fresh. The creative but classic dishes hit the spot and can satisfy the deepest of pasta cravings.
