Ambitious, contemporary Italian with standout pastas and polished vibes; pricey and occasionally salty or slow, but many diners leave thrilled.
Da Toscano delivers exceptional handmade pastas and seafood with warm, knowledgeable service in a charming Greenwich Village setting that excels for date nights. However, periodic oversalting and occasional slow pacing on busy nights prevent the consistency needed for a higher grade, and the contemporary Italian approach—while creative—lacks the iconic status that would elevate it to neighborhood legend status.
One caveat: Some nights see long gaps between courses; plan extra time on weekends
