Il Corso

We had a truly wonderful meal here!

The service was excellent and the waiters were helpful and friendly. The place is small, but not uncomfortable.

The raw beef slices and arugula was a great start to the meal. Excellent cut of meat and flavorful dressing on the greens, also served with delicious cheese.

The pasta dishes are amazing. The sauces and meat served in the dishes were quite outstanding. Each bite was riveting.

The desserts were a perfect end to a great meal. The tiramisu was seriously the best I've had.

Would recommend!

Some of the most amazing Italian meals I’ve had. Great ambience. Surprisingly very generous portions for all meals. The waiting staff were also exceptional. The eggplant and seafood(calamari) starters are a show stopper. Fantastic good

IT WAS THE BEST TOMATO SPAGETTI IVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE🥹 The pasta was really chewy and the sauce was well blended with the pasta. Never enjoyed tomato spaghetti in my life but it was so good. I will definitely visit here again!

Hands down a gem!!! Just a little place with atmosphere and service!! The food was fresh and they modified it to meet our vegan needs and we were so impressed!! The lentil spread on the house bread was awesome! Beautiful decor and truly a lovely place

A truly fabulous dinner tonight. Service top notch. Delicious food. Very friendly staff. We thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Pasta was fabulous. I edited this review to mention I just recently returned on New Year’s Eve for dinner while visiting NYC and it was just as good as my previous visit.

What an amazing service and the taste and texture of the food was great. My pasta was a bite if the ocean with its salty mess and a hint of the bitter squid ink. The shrimp were savory and the muscles were like sweet brine.

Lovely spot and food was amazing. We had reservations and since we had a bit of a wait the team was great at talking with us and providing updates and great customer service.

I will say that walking around is a bit tight especially as a plus size girly.

The fried zucchini was wonderful! The Cacio e Pepe was DELICIOUS- comparable to that in ROME, Italy that we’ve eaten!!!! All of the food was AMAZING, as were the people working there! We highly recommend this restaurant !!!

I was pleasantly surprised to find this quaint restaurant in midtown. Food was excellent and servers very attentive.
You must try the avocado and artichoke appetizer, simply delicious!

We Italians are always looking for a taste of home and this was it.Just like Mama used to make. Small, intimate and outstanding service. Food was delicious, but the seafood pasta was outstanding. The pasta itself one of the best you’ll eat.

Call ahead for reservations! This is a busy place, and there might be a short wait if you don’t have reservations. Great service and atmosphere. Food was authentic Italian dishes.

The food was really tasty. The lasagna and mushrooms truffle dishes are the two I would recommend. The appetizer platter was good, but the dipping sauces needed work.

Came here with a group of friends and we ordered so much food! Started with the octopus and a burrata with artichokes which was all so delicious. The artichokes were topped with a truffle honey which complimented them nicely. For the pastas we ordered the bolognese, lamb ragu, gnocchi, and the cacio e pepe. To start the cacio e pepe was the highlight being served in a Parmesan bowl (picture included), which heated up so nicely for leftovers and I also absolutely loved the bolognese! The lamb ragu was very tender, but heavily tasted like rosemary which wasn’t listed as a main ingredient on the menu. It was still a great dish it was just an unexpected flavor. I can’t comment on the gnocchi since I didn’t make it that far in the meal as the other pastas captivated my appetite, but my friends seemed to be enjoying it. Really great prices and would definitely visit again!

Wonderful Italian restaurant in Midtown Manhattan. It is a small place with a local crowd, and always such an enjoyable experience. Il Corso has become a regular dinner spot when my parents visit from out of town every few months.
The menu is fairly large with diverse offerings. Every dish I've ordered was excellent, quality pastas, sauces, and meats. If anyone is a fan of Nutella tart pastries, please order for dessert, delicious!
And very importantly, the wine list is extensive!

Best Caesar salad we’ve had…ever, in any place or time period.

Gnocchi was delicious, ravioli of the day (pear/Gorgonzola) was out of this world.

Nutella tart was otherworldly.

Service was great the whole time.

Nothing bad to say about this place. Highly recommend.

한국분들 여기 진짜 꼭 드세요. I absolutely love this place! It’s my second visit as I HAD to comeback for their Burrata appetizer. Discovered Il Corso during my stay in summer, and enjoyed it so much that I decided to make another visit while I’m in town again! This time I also tried their Cacio e pepe and it was delicious! The cheese crust bowl made the pasta extra cheesy and creamy. Also the servers are always kind. :) Highly recommend!

Great Italian restaurant. The gnocchi dish was huge and really good. The spaghetti dish was too small in my opinion and they need to balance it out a bit. The Ceasar salad was very good! It should be on the regular menu and not a special.

Branzino was perfection!
Don't miss out on burrata with crispy prosciutto and artichoke.
Everything was delicious

Highly recommend Il Corso for excellent food and amazing service!!
Went tonight with some friends and we had such a great night. We shared the burrata, the fried zucchini platter with shrimps and calamari and a salad as appetizers followed by plenty of pasta. Everything was top notch!
Can’t wait to go again

A really great experience, very kind staff, small but filling portions of VERY good food. Would recommend to anyone, it’s worth a trip out of your way, we’ll be back! (Also the gluten free pasta was great)
