Profile

Supper is where polpettone kingpin Frank Prisinzano—of southern Italian Frank and Lil’ Frankie’s fame—sets his sights on the rest of the boot. The crowded, convivial space is decked out with wooden communal tables, a bustling open kitchen, and floral-pattern plates that evoke Sunday supper at Grandma’s house. The real attraction, though, is what’s on those plates: an herby minestrone Genovese, perfectly thin veal Milanese, a luscious chocolate-hazelnut panna cotta, a daily risotto, and bollito misto on weekends. — Rob Patronite and Robin Raisfeld

People are badmouthing the hostesses here, but tonight the one who answered the phone when I reserved for a party of five was friendly and helpful. When we arrived, she even shook my hand (a warm gesture that wasn´t lost on me) and was smiling genuinely at everyone. After dinner I told her I thought she was a very nice hostess but I think it creeped her out. Oh well. I meant it. The food overall was great (especially the Cervo-Venison), and our server was good-natured and explained things well. Service itself was a touch on the slow side between meal stages, but who cares if the food and conversation is good? Plus, they didn´t take empty plates away while others were still eating, so we didn´t feel rushed at all. The back room has an old, vintage feel, so ask for a table back there.

I recently dined at Supper after having heard good reviews of the place but I was in for a harsh dissappointment. After being made to wait 20 minutes for a table (the restaurant was at least half empty) by a bitchy hostess, we were treated to horrific service. Our waiter made us wait over and over again, was unaccomodating, and just simply unpleasant. We might have overlooked this had the food been tasty but it was at best bland. I left the restaurant shortly thereafter hungry as I left my plate untouched after the first bite. Do not be lured by the crowd pleasing decor, eat elsewhere.
