Throughout the years, I've been to countless Italian restaurants in New York City. I have to say that L'Allegria stands out and it's one of my favs. The pasta is always fresh and the meats are tasty and tender. The wine list is impressive due to the fact that prices are extremely reasonable if not the best in midtown in a real eatery. The ambiance is welcoming. When you're in midtown, try l'Allegria. It's awsome.
