Profile

On the Upper East Side, Northern Italian eateries may come a dime a dozen, but Due is a shining example of a keeper. At this cozy yet elegant venue, flavorful, straightforward food can be had at a good value. An appetizer of meaty shrimp and firm white beans is a worthy rendition of a well-known classic. Rollatini, a cylinder of fresh pasta packed generously with porcini mushrooms, ricotta and spinach in a velvety tomato cream sauce is a gratifyingly rich mouthful. Ladies take note: the chivalrous and hospitable staff will pull out your chair, drop your napkin in your lap, and if you’re game, shamelessly flirt with you.

Can't Judge a book by its cover...

At first glance Due seemed very appealing, very nice decor and gave off a very inviting aroma. I was hoping it would be a good choice for a romantic dinner for two, boy was I mistaken. We were seated promptly on what seemed like a busy night for them but from there it was downhill. The service took forever, the waiter didn't seem to know anything about the entres or the specials he was reading off of his tray. The food took forever to arrive and was very bland and flavorless. My risotto could have been mistaken for a microwavable helping of mac'n'cheese. The UES is full of amazing restaurants how due slipped through the cracks is bewildering.

By far, one my finance and mines favorite restaurants in Manhattan. Not only is the host and staff professional, efficient and courteous, the food is well prepared and delicious. Indeed, the service and food has always exceeded expectations. The veal osso buco is outstanding, and the broccoli rabe is the best I have ever had. Even if it is your first time visiting, you are treated as if you are the most important diner they are serving. The packed tables are a testament to their success. Best of all, it is reasonably priced.
