Profile

Pino Luongo isn't only a prolific, trendsetting restaurateur, he's also a pretty good cook. To prove it, he's decided to run the show from the back of the house this time at his Upper East Side restaurant, turning out a mix of what he calls old and new world Italian dishes like Tuscan fish stew, sea-salt-crusted roast chicken, and a dazzlingly good rib-eye steak.

Prix-Fixe

Mon.–Sat., noon–3 p.m.; three-courses, $24.50

The food was authentic and good. The server was professional, everything went right. The decor was not my style, but looked suitably Italian.

never again

the decor was fine but the food embarassingly bad. i had a monkfish which was literally inedible. the substitute veal was almost as bad, the pasta average at best and the dessert about the same. never again
