" I visited Da Raffaele last month and found it to be a delightful dining experience. However, I felt the vibe was slightly more informally casual, which diminished my excitement to try their known specialties. Service was good but not exceptional. I'll return with more friends next time for a bigger array of their menu offerings! " (*Curated Review*)

" Da Raffaele is the quintessential Italian restaurant! Everything from the fresh bread to the desserts felt homemade. Their tiramisu was divine—definitely leave room for dessert here! Fantastic service too; I'll be coming back often! " (*Curated Review*)

" Although I had a decent time at Da Raffaele, I expected more based on the reviews. The food was good, but not memorable. The service was friendly, but I feel they might still be finding their footing in the post-pandemic dining scene. I'd give it another go in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the pleasure of dining at Da Raffaele on a recent trip to NYC, and it exceeded my expectations. The food tasted like it was made from scratch with love—so delicious! But beware, the portions could be a bit small for the price. Still, the cozy ambiance makes up for it. If you're looking for a romantic dinner, I highly recommend it! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was lucky to find this beautiful restaurant while wandering around the neighborhood. The traditional recipes they serve are refreshing compared to all the cliché Italian places in the area.
