Stopped for a spontaneous cocktail (okay - maybe two) with a friend. Sat at the bar. Polite service from the bartender and we ordered two Paper Planes with Reposada tequila instead of bourbon. He held up the Casamigos bottle and we said "yes". Cocktails were tasty and well made but it seems like he should have mentioned the $10 per cocktail up-charge, right? Normal menu price for a Paper Plane is $19. Final price with $20 tip $138 for four drinks. Buyer beware.

Unfortunately.... We were seated at a beautiful table and halfway through our meal a massive cockroach crawled across the table. We alerted a host who didn't immediately get the manager (he seemed unsure of what to do and who can blame him), and then once a second roach was spotted on the wall, we begged for the manager so we could at least settle the bill / tip our waiter and leave immediately. We didn't want to stay there for a second longer. They asked if we wanted to move to another table (we of course said no we're getting the hell out of here we don't want to touch any more food here) and the manager comped the meal (we had appetizers and one round of drinks at that point and were waiting for entrees) which was very nice of him but we were all so freaked out and grossed out we didn't care and just wanted to leave. As we were finally leaving a third cockroach was spotted crawling on the ceiling above our table. We were in the side room and everyone in there was in complete shock / some girls who just walked in even took pictures of the massive roaches because it was so insane. The manager handed me the resturaunt card (idk why) and apologized profusely and said they would be happy to have us back any time. Nice gesture but of course will not be returning. I've been living in NYC for a while, and while of course roaches come with the territory...I have NEVER experienced something like this in a dining situation. I'm sure it was a one off issue as the very nice hostess said she was so surprised since they are typically freakishly clean...probably was a crack in the wall or they recently sprayed and they came out to play. Either way, it was really crazy and gross, especially for a nice and expensive restaurant in the West Village. Especially upsetting as I had visitors in town and we were having a fun night out that was quickly ruined by this situation. Safe to say I will never be returning, which is too bad because the restaurant is beautiful and the food we had was pretty good.

Terrible and indifferent service made this a negative experience. No menus, no water, no light, no greeting or eye contact. Just unprofessional fckery. Do not

It's embarrassing how bad this place is. We had a reservation on a Friday night. Forty minutes later, we still hadn't been seated. They claimed the table just wouldn't get up and they had no other table for four in the restaurant. I ended up having to leave after 45 minutes of not being seated. Do not go here.

My second time here because I believe in second chances, but this place is proof terrible food can exist in an exquisitely designed space. The calamari was soggy (again), the pasta extremely salty (again) though had no cheese? The meat & potatoes with no flavor to them. I now believe this spot caters to midwestern transplants, or what Italians think midwestern Americans would like…Consider this a D&D only spot, drinks & dessert only!! I would come back around 11/12 when I want a cocktail and tiramisu to end the night in a beautiful space.

Bread was stale. Halibut was dry. Pasta was cooked wrong. The fried mozzarella undercooked. The location is perfect, the staff is amazing, drinks are on point. The food is atrocious. This spot is bottom of the barrel. Will not be back!!

Very loud restaurant, food is so mediocre and ambiance is ok-ish. Service was good though starting from managers finishing with busboys.

Gotta start off with some appreciation for the fact that this place didn't kick me out after my homegirl was 45 minutes late to our res, and nor did the bartender made me feel judged for sitting looking like I got stood up while I crushed 2 cosmos by myself lmao. Food was expensive as hell and honestly so mid, even 2 drinks deep. The amberjack crudo was meh, the salad was forgettable, and the lemon pasta was way too lemony. Tbh some of the worst pasta I've had in NYC. Vibes were good though, place was bumpin'. Also I'm mad as hell that the bartender originally gave me a bill only charging me for 2 drinks then corrected it (crushed a 3rd cosmo when my homegirl eventually showed up, felt that this morning) LMAOOO I really was hyped for a few seconds when I saw that first bill. But she made a solid drink so I'll forgive her.

The service here is excellent, only second to the food. I highly suggest the meatballs, calamari, and caesar salad to start. The fussili pasta is delicious and the right amount of spice. It's also BYOB as well, so that is so nice or you can get cocktails from the bar.

Saint theos is a cute spot with good service, but the food wasn't incredible for the price. Our server was extremely friendly and offered us lattes as soon as we sat down (which we mostly accepted because we were confused about what he was asking). While the lattes were good, when we got the bill we learned they were $7 and pretty small. We ordered the Mezzaluna appetizer to start which was the best thing we ate - the bread was a delicious focaccia and the eggplant spread was delicious. We then each had different entrees, I had the mozzarella in carozzo and my friends had the ricotta gemelli and lemon linguini. All were fine but nothing incredible. For the price, I would've expected more exciting flavors. All in all Saint Theo's was a good experience, but we probably won't be back here

My wife and I went there for snacks and drinks. The ambience is lovely, it is decorated so nicely. The cocktails were delicious. The server was very polite and helpful. The polpette were just okay but the mozzarella in carrozza and caesar were scrumptious. Desserts were tasty, too. Finally, not a small thing, the espresso was perfect.

Went here for coffee/brunch today & was happy to get in as it was Sunday afternoon in West Village. We were initially seated at a table but decided to move to the bar (both of which were comfortable in terms of seating, but there were fewer people at the bar so it was easier for my friend and I to catch up). The bar is done up in terrazzo speckle! I got an iced latte, they have whole milk & 2 dairy-free options incl. oat milk. My friend ordered a black drip coffee & an espresso. He also ordered food: fries ($12) & the "Full Italian" ($35). I tried the fries which were quite tasty as they had parmesan + black pepper on them. The Full Italian comes with fennel sausage, sunny side egg, cannellini beans, tomato, Calabrian potato, and grilled sourdough. Being as my friend is Italian, I of course wanted to get his thoughts for my review: This is where I'd come to cheat when I periodically try a no-carb diet. The fries are the type where I eat one at a time. I walked in hungry and left feeling very satisfied, but not at all bloated. The ingredients in the food were of very high quality, and there were 6 different food items on my plate (Full Italian), but the flavors of each were distinct. The portion sizes are adequate - not small, but not overly generous, but I did not have to eat a lot to feel like I was eating a lot. The flavor of each item was zesty and lively; the food felt hearty. Eggs had good consistency, hardly runny. The sourdough tasted good dry (no topping); perhaps because it was grilled vs. toasted I felt like I was eating more than just bread. The tomatoes pleasantly burst in my mouth, and while the sausage wasn't anything amazing, it sure did taste good - and it had an illusion of being healthy. The beans were kind of just beans, but they tasted fine and I ate them all. The potatoes were the star of the show - they were the zestiest and liveliest on the plate. The fries were probably good enough to justify $12 almost anywhere. Some of the $35 for the Full Italian felt like it was paying for the ambiance. All of the food was high quality, and there was enough of it, but there wasn't any steak or salmon or any key ingredients with a naturally high price tag. I'd expect to pay $30 or less for the same plate of food at a less fancy restaurant. For an upscale brunch experience, it checks all the boxes. As someone who doesn't have a sophisticated palate, I like to shovel food into my mouth, but the flavors were exquisite enough to make me want to eat slowly (I said exquisite enough on purpose. Exquisite by itself is too strong of a word for their food. It wasn't that good, just exquisite enough). The staff was friendly, attentive, and very polite, and by sitting at the bar we had privacy to talk. There are two nice bathrooms (gender-neutral); the first unisex restroom has a photo of a topless woman (JFYI)! Since we love specifics, the bathroom pic deets are: Eva Herzigová / Pirelli Calendar 1998 / ph. Bruce Weber. Vibe - it's a stylish space with an ode to Italian modernism indeed and the aesthetics are on point, which I noticed through the colors (notably canary and emerald with bronze accents), unique typography, and nostalgic interior décor that seemed like vintage calendars/posters. Think: Studio 54 turned chic Italian restaurant - fun & enjoyment, bringing fabulousness back to dinner (& brunch!). The diverse menu is heavily Italy-inspired, translated in a modern way through playfulness. I'm happy I finally got to try it since I live around the corner & always see liveliness buzzing around in the evenings! If going for dinner, make a reservation in advance to ensure a table. I'll be going back so I can experience the dinner atmosphere. Fun facts: they sell merch online which seems to be popular since there's a $60 hoodie that's currently sold out. Manolo Blahnik had a launch dinner there for the archival debut. MatchesFashion has hosted an event there during fashion week. There's a secret "Venice Bar" behin
