    First time in this restaurant, Ok service, okay ambiance The order was : Grilled fish which was looking great and looking forward to eat it but it was way very dimmer lighting to see and pick the fish bones out... and felt it's overpriced for its size! Black pasta/octopus was so delicious and the pork was as well tasty and great The farrow salad was decent!

    What a beautiful Italian spot in Park Slope. We went on a Monday evening and the place was packed! The ambiance is very warm and cozy and small things from the decor to the plates make the place feel super special. The food is absolutely delicious. The calamari was one of the specials and stole the show! The spaghetti vongole also had a nice kick to it which brought the flavors together. The tortellini was good but not wow. For dessert, we got the panna cotta and it was a perfect ending to the meal, sweet but not too sweet. As for the service, I actually liked the fact that it wasn't rushed at all, which is a rarity in NYC. Wonderful experience, I'll be back for sure!

    Absolutely loved Al Di La! A little hard to find and directions led us to the wine bar, but no big deal. Walked and and it was a cute cozy italian spot that you could just tell was going to be a great meal. We started with the Steamed Mussels which were divine, I think we both could have drank the white wine sauce. Also ordered the Spring Salad which was super refreshing and had great flavor. (We knew we were indulging so had to get some greens in!) For entrees we split the Pappardelle with Duck which was cooked to perfection and the Saltimbocca Alla Romana. I will say this was a little salty for me but it is pork so that is expected. For dessert we ordered the homeade hazelnut icecream which was SO good. The perfect ending to this meal.

    Couples or parties of 2 get ready to cozy up to your fellow patrons. If you need to get up tables will have to be pulled forward to let you out. Larger groups definitely have more room and spacing, but nonetheless the experience will be intimately loud. We came for the highly reviewed Coniglio (braised rabbit) which did not disappoint, but the Spaghetti Neri is a must try. The octopus was perfectly cooked and enrobed in a peppery sauce whose "slow burn" made it hard to put my fork down or prevent my partner from eating out of my plate. Their oxtail and cuttlefish appetizer is an "interesting" experience. The texture was heavy on the creamy and soft with flavors that channeled childhood memories for me, but were in conflict with each other for my partner. Thankfully, the Primitivo Orion was sublime on the palate in all the ways. If you're in the mood for a light dessert that isn't heavy on the sweetness, their panna cotta with wine infused cherries and almond biscotti is the perfect end cap. This place gets packed, so make a reservation. Our 6:45 pm booking was the sweet spot where the turnover from earlier diners gave us a little space for hand holding across the table and a mini lull to shout my man a happy birthday.
