Had a great dinner on the patio! The octopus and calamari appetizers were fresh and delicious and the baby chicken and risotto mare were simply to die! Service was a bit slow and our waiter seemed very confused and disappointed when someone in our party asked for a non-alcoholic drink, but overall we had a fantastic time.

Had been on my list to visit. Made a reservation online - easy. Bice Cucina did not disappoint, excellent experience. The meals were amazing, I had the Gnocchi, was absolutely delicious. Bice do a perfect Negroni as well. The people are lovely, really engaging and fun! Atmosphere is cosy and modern! Will be back! Ben Hurr is the best, lovely outdoor dining spot too - when weather permits!

I've been visiting Bice since their 54th and Madison location and have always had great italian meals here. Today's experience was no different. While the restaurant inside is a little smaller now, this location has a great outdoor dining setup. Highly recommended!

Delicious pasta. I recommend the gnocchi and the beef lasagna. Portions size are perfect. for dessert we had the tiramisu but it was ok. The prices are ok and the service is very good. The waiter serves water frequently. The place is very nice and all the tables are far from each other. You can seat inside or outside.

The service was excellent!!!!! All stars given were well deserved!!!!! From the door upon arrival to the manager bringing the check! Food was excellent (photos are included)! The ambience was relaxing and white linen table cloths are fresh. Smooth jazz plays in the background. The manager ensured that my mother had sweet tea .... even though they don't serve it...... his commitment to service was impeccable! I don't even leave reviews but I was moved to leave this one due to the great service, food and total evening experience! It made my last night in NYC! We found a good Italian spot to keep on our list!!!!

Just had a lovely dinner here, the atmosphere they've created is cozy and warm yet elegant and sophisticated. The staff went above and beyond to make sure our group had everything we needed. I will absolutely return when I visit New York again
