Bar Primi has a good concept, an attractive room, and a serious pasta menu, but inconsistent execution and service keep it at three stars. Final rating: 3.0 out of 5.

da Adriano is a competent Upper East Side Italian restaurant with good pasta, friendly service, and a clear Italian foundation. Final rating: 3.0 out of 5.

Song’ E Napule was once much better. On our recent visit the pizza was undercooked and mediocre, service was poor, and the bill was too high for the quality delivered. Final rating: 2.5 out of 5.
