" I visited San Gennaro for the first time and was really impressed. The pasta dishes were fantastic, particularly the cavatappi with sausage. Each dish was carefully crafted and seasoned beautifully. The environment was inviting and cozy, and exceeded my expectations. This is definitely a place I can picture myself returning to with my family. The service was a bit slow, but they were busy — I'm willing to overlook that since the food was top-notch! " (*Curated Review*)

" Eating at San Gennaro was an experience to remember. The authentic flavors transported me straight to Italy! We tried their grilled calamari as an appetizer, and it was divine. For my main course, I had the veal which was tender and perfectly cooked. Even the bread they served was fresh! The BEST of all was meeting Gennaro, who came out to check on us. It's clear he takes pride in his restaurant. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" Really had an excellent dinner at San Gennaro! It has a homey, neighborhood feel to it that makes you feel like you are truly in Italy. We started with the bruschetta which had fresh ingredients. I had the spaghetti carbonara, which was creamy and packed with flavor — certainly didn’t disappoint. The staff was friendly, and I love that they offer BYOB. Save room for dessert because their tiramisu is a delightful end to your meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" Local favorite! I've been coming to San Gennaro for years, and while it’s small, the food and service always make for a wonderful night out. Whether it’s pizza or their lovely veal dishes, you can’t go wrong. The service staff is attentive without being overbearing. And let me mention the homemade limoncello — it’s a must-try! If you’re looking for great authentic Italian in the Bronx, stop in here! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a beautiful evening spent at San Gennaro! I loved the cozy vibe of the restaurant; it felt like visiting a friend's house. The menu offers a variety of pasta dishes that look great, and I went with the ravioli stuffed with ricotta. They were divine! I can't forget to mention the friendly server who offered great recommendations. This is one of the best spots in Little Italy! " (*Curated Review*)

" It was a great experience at San Gennaro. We enjoyed a fantastic meal with generous portions. The pasta was cooked perfectly and was genuinely flavorful. Our waiter was a bit overwhelmed but still managed to offer good service. One drawback was the noise level; it would be perfect if it were a little quieter, but overall, I would highly recommend it for Italian cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" The atmosphere was warm and inviting, perfect for a date night, but the food fell a little flat. I ordered an eggplant dish that was on special, but it lacked flavor and wasn't prepared how I expected. The service was decent, but our server seemed busy and not as attentive as I hoped. I might give them another try since the other reviews are great, but I didn't come away impressed this time. " (*Curated Review*)
