" Great place for a casual meal! I took my family here for dinner. The food was solid, though not as authentic as I expected. The pizza crust was a bit off for me, but the service was above par. My kids enjoyed their meals, which is always a plus, but I wasn’t overly impressed by the portions. We enjoyed the overall atmosphere, though it was a bit cramped. I might give it another shot but will definitely choose a different dish next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really looking forward to dining at Celeste after hearing so many great things. The restaurant has a charming atmosphere, but I found the dish I ordered (the pizza) to be overly bland. The pasta dishes that my friends had received high praise, so it might be that I just got the wrong dish. The waitstaff were efficient and welcoming, but overall, I just wasn’t blown away like I expected to be. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the opportunity to visit Celeste last weekend and I was really excited because of all the great reviews I had read. The restaurant has a charming decor and a cozy vibe. The food, however, was a mixed bag for me. While the pasta was fresh and flavorful, and the tiramisu was delightful, I found the pizza to be somewhat underwhelming. The crust was a bit too thick for my taste. Service was great—our server was friendly and attentive. I would consider giving it another try, but I might stick to the pasta next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" We had a lovely dinner at Celeste that we won’t soon forget! The pasta was fresh and the sauce superb. I’ve been to many Italian restaurants in New York, and this tops the list for me. It’s clear that they take serious pride in preparing authentic Italian dishes. The ambiance has a very neighborhood feel, which I always appreciate. I will definitely be back to try their ravioli and seafood pasta dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic spot for authentic Italian food! The pasta is made fresh daily, and you can definitely taste the difference. I had the ravioli, and it was delectable; each bite was filled with rich flavors. The ambiance was warm and inviting, perfect for a cozy dinner with friends. Our server was attentive and knowledgeable about the menu, providing great recommendations. The only downside was that it was cash only, so be prepared before you go! " (*Curated Review*)

" While the food was good, I found Celeste to be a bit overrated. I tried the pasta and risotto for the first time and while they were decent, they didn’t blow me away. Additionally, the service was unusually slow despite how crowded it was. I found the space to be a bit cramped too. Overall, it was a satisfactory experience but unfortunately didn’t live up to the hype. " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing so many good things about Celeste, my partner and I decided to check it out. It was quite crowded when we arrived, but we managed to find a spot at the bar. The pasta was truly delightful. However, the service did feel a bit slow at times. Nonetheless, the food made up for it! I really enjoyed my dish, and we loved the cozy atmosphere. I’ll definitely recommend it to others! " (*Curated Review*)
