"Everything was amazing. One of my favorite meals in New York and definitely the best Italian I've had here. Im so obsessed i need the agnolotti like oxygen as well as the lasagna OMG. All desserts were INSANE. I cant even recommend just one. octopus was my fav octopus ive had in nyc. Raddichio salad is perfection. Loved the braised cabbage w blue cheese I am so blown away at the flavour development it tastes so homey but so pristine also. Got an excellent orange wine bottle as well. I have to come back soon 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍"

"Really loved the vibe here! The bread basket is delish and our table loved the ravioli and agnolotti. They did forget our order and we got our pasta 45 mins after our apps, which was crazy. Would like to give this place another try!"

"$60 for a truffle pasta that’s overcooked and bland is a lot - there’s a nice amount of truffle shavings though and that’s it. The squid ink was good but nothing mind-blowing. I have had better squid ink pasta. The other two pasta dishes were alright - not memorable. They’re well-made in terms of technical execution, but overall mid in terms of flavor, and def not competitive. Tiramisu was mid and quite bland - could barely taste the layers of flavors that make it a tiramisu - it’s basic. Flat, one-dimensional. Would I go back here? Probably not - I’d rather try other italian restaurants - they’re EVERYWHERE in NYC anyway."

"Great cozy/casual restaurant. Was able to walk in on a late Friday night and grab a bar seat after a horrible experience at another restaurant. We got the prosciutto and burrata, bread, 2 spaghettis and steak. Everything was excellent and I can’t wait to go back to try more. I liked both spaghettis but the lemon spaghetti edged out the smoked by just a little for me. Prosciutto and burrata went great with the bread, one of the best I’ve had but unfortunately it wasn’t warm. Would have been amazing warm. The steak was cooked well and I enjoyed the white sauce but the potatoes were a bit plain to me. I wish they were a bit herbier and more seasoned. Definitely interested in those apps and other pastas so we will be back. We had the soft touch and Kyoto song to drink and that was great along with their margarita. Pricing is very fair as well!"

"Best Italian in all of Brooklyn! Silvia (the head chef and business owner) is a phenomenal award winning Chef whom I cannot stop telling people about! Her warmth, energy, love, and passion truly shine through here at LaRina. You come for a meal and you leave feeling like you have found a new family. The entire staff really made this trip extra memorable! Thank you so much for the incredible meal and the memories!"
