“ Came here for lunch. While I waited for my friend to arrive I ordered the cauliflower as I like zatar. It was mushier than I expected but flavor was good. I prefer a crunchy cauliflower. For our main we went with the speck pie paired with white wines. We were told the smaller size was more of a personal pie so we went with the larger size. Pizza was good but very filling so we could only finish half of the pie. For dessert we went with the affogato but had to wait 20 min for the ice cream. They make it in house. It was worth the wait. Service was very good and nice ambiance. Would come back. ”
“ Nice, comfortable pizza restaurant with friendly, attentive service. All the pizzas were made fresh and tasted great. Clean place, clean, roomy bathrooms and nice views wherever you are situated. ”
“ Best brunch place. I frequented Polpettina (both Larchmont and Eastchester locations) while I lived in Westchester, and returned today for brunch with friends. The experience was top-notch as expected. To start, we ordered eggplant chips, naked dough and garlic knot focaccia. The eggplant chips are sliced thin and deep fried (NOT greasy) with honey drizzled and salt sprinkled over top. These are hands-down the best eggplant chips I've ever had. The naked dough dish is essentially a "bread balloon" that comes fresh out of the oven on a wire tray. Each guest can pull apart pieces and dip it into a ricotta dip. Lastly, the garlic knot bread is served like a round loaf, seasoned with crunchy "everything" flakes and a gooey cheese pull. We ordered several cocktails, I.e. French 75 (gin drink), sour cherry Bellinis, Aperol spritz and espresso martinis. Each guest was happy with their choice. For our "entree" we continued with the carbo-load trend and got pizza! We shared the vodka, pepperoni and caciocavallo. The caciocavallo left something to be desired, and that's what I was most excited for. It's a pie with prosciutto, peach jam, burrata, salted pistachio and basil. I personally feel the burrata shouldn't have been melted, rather served in big milky (cold) balls over the peach jam. I requested a side of balsamic to supplement the salty flavor of the cheese and pistachio. I think extra peach or balsamic glaze could have elevated this more. The ambience in the restaurant is perfect, with a "head nod" to New York icons, including a Yankees jersey hanging on the bathroom wall and black and white pictures of subway scenes. Of note, the playlist was perfect including hits from Two Door Cinema Club and Young the Giant. I highly suggest Polpettina if you're in the Westchester area! ”
“ This place gets 5 from me for its original tastes that most of its food has. Always crowded lets you know the food is good. Went here with some friends for drinks and food and everything was amazing. Pics attached don't do it justice because of lighting. (No fault to establishment of course) Been here few times and always left satisfied Great place to go to wether for lunch after school pizza or dinner and drinks ”
“ This is purely a takeout review. The person who took my order was extremely nice on the phone and let me know my order would take a while (about 45 minutes) since I ordered a grandma pie and those take longer to make. Upon arriving the place inside was packed and there were people waiting for tables, I grabbed both my pies and was in for a delightful experience. The Neapolitan Pie was absolutely incredible. I could eat it everyday. The Grandma pizza was really good too. I can see why it was packed inside. Would definitely return to try more things. ”
“ Came here for lunch and was impressed by how lovely the interior is. The copper ceiling is absolutely beautiful! The hostess and our waitress were lovely and very welcoming. I was with a friend and we hadn't seen each other in a very long time and the waitress was very understanding and gave us plenty of time to chat before we finally looked at the menu. We decided to try the Naked Dough for an appetizer and then shared the Morty Sandwich-I would recommend both! We also wanted to try the Brussel Sprouts...which could have been cooked a little more and had less sauce. Unfortunately, I looked at the reviews after coming here and it would have been nice to know about the additional kitchen charge-like many other reviewers, I tip very well after being in the restaurant business myself so that additional fee - although meager - left a bad taste... ”
“ So happy to come here after they reopened! My aunt and uncle were sweet and took me here to celebrate my (belated) birthday. Of course we had to start with the eggplant chips and the meatballs. He ordered eggplant parm for his entree, she had the chicken (ironclad?) and I had to try the cacio e pepe. Everything was delicious! The waiter overheard it was a birthday so when I ordered a brownie for dessert it came with a candle so naturally I was sung to. It was a great ending to the night :) ”
“ Very good local Italian restaurant. Only been a couple of times, but impressed with the quality of the food. Tried one of the pizzas and it was solid. Went a 2nd time for lunch and tried a few dishes to share (pork belly, brussels sprout, oysters). Everything was good. The service was very friendly. Only minor complaint is that mains were really slow to come out and it wasnt that busy at that time. Look forward to coming back in warn weather to enjoy the outdoor seating. ”
