Love Digulio's, been awhile since Gino's but decently fond memories. Never been to Pinetta's.

Best food and atmosphere ? Don't give two anwers for both, pick one that encapsulates both the best.

Pinetta’s red sauce is divine and the atmosphere is perfect for a date.

All three are solid. If I had to pick one, it’d be Gino’s. Of the three, Pinettas has the best red sauce.

Ginos every day.

Veal Parmesan or Sorrentina are the best. Laurence bread is overrated

Pinetta's is the epitome of the perfect date spot and that's why it ranks #1 with me. It's tucked off in a small corner of BR that most people don't frequent. It's an authentic European restaurant and it has been there for decades. The food is delicious and the atmosphere is very romantic with the dim lit dining area and the rustic European decor and hanging pictures.

What I also like about it is that there are a couple of late night spots right around the corner if you and your SO want to grab a drink or two after dinner.

Yep, Billy and I were sitting in Pinetta's with our dates one night in the early 70's when the whole thing came to me out of nowhere. We went to Chelsea's and performed it that night for the late night crowd and the rest is history.

No cocaine whatsoever was used during the production of that video.

It’s been awhile since I’ve lived in BR, but Pinetta’s would be my first choice, followed by Gino’s.
