“Not a great experience”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 May 2013 via mobile

We chose 62 based on TripAdvisor reviews. We were fairly unimpressed. My husbands pasta with clams was so salty is ruined the dish. They ran out of bread and the freezer broke so some desserts were unavailabl. Overall it was a mediocre experience for the money.

“Family Dinner”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 April 2013

This restaurant is a gourmet treat. The food is as good or better than you would find in Manhattan. The pasta is home made and unique. Everything was delicious. Desserts were also wonderful. We ordered 3 for the 5 of us and they bought us a 4th one to try for free! The staff was amazing also. We had an... More

“Start to spring”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 April 2013

Flavors were delicious and really reminded us that spring is right around the corner. Ben was our server and provided great hospitality and knowledge of the menu, both food and beverage. We enjoyed our favorites along with some innovative sputini and side dishes. Compliments to the chef!

“Great flavours”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 April 2013

Interesting choice of Italian dishes and were able to have a small dish to start with instead of a great mound of food. Duck with pasta was delicious. Good service. Should book if there at a busy time

“Perfection”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 March 2013

Imagine going to a restaurant where they do everything right. This is it. Food is handmade, fresh, and imaginative; they have an excellent wine list, ambiance and service. I previously lived in Italy and this is as close as it gets to "real" italian food. This was one of the best meals I have had on the U.S. and close... More

“not impressed”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 March 2013

Food seemed fresh but so overly gourmet style that is was loaded with oil and mushrooms everywhere. Fried artichokes could have been fried anything and I wouldn't have known. Maybe it would have ben better if I was drinking :) I could break it down more, but just a waste of money. Suggestion...stick with a pasta dish and thats it

My wife and I went to 62 for Valentines day. The menu was great and the food was exceptional. The restaurant is not huge, but not so small that you feel like you are in a fish bowl. The small plates and the entrees were perfect. The dessert was the just OK, so in the future we will just not... More

5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 February 2013

My wife and I went to 62 Restaurant & Wine Bar for a birthday dinner. It was great. We had small portions and was able to taste many plates. The Vitello and Pizza appetizers were great. We shared a salad and got Agnolotti and Tagliatelle for main course. I like the smaller portions to try more tastes. Dinner was about... More
