Amazing food, classy ambiance, I had the homemade buffalo mozzarella and it was so tasty. I love the taste of mozzarella cheese in my mouth. Wine selection is impressive and the place is really nice and warm. Really a nice place to stay.

Well... Last Week I visited Spiga in New York City. I found Spiga to be sophisticated completely, from the environment through the presentation. Wait staff in that restaurant was extremely great! The food was outstanding. Undoubtedly one of my issues was the preso was not that incredible. The look was good though failed to provide you with that "omg" feeling. The very good quality along with amount of food ended up being good. All in all Excellent food! I'm a massive fan of the place. We will be soon.
