Cellini New York Reviews from The Last Year
A utilitarian meal
Ate here because it was close to an activity. Food was good - not great, service was very fast (maybe a little too fast?). The restaurant is long and narrow with a bar at the front. Ambiance was kind of cute, quaintly decorated in a country mode. Focaccia was good. We shared the white salad - fine, a veg pasta with red sauce and eggplant (very sparse), veal parmigiana - which was ok. A utilitarian meal.
All around excellent!
Reuniting with a dear friend my wife and I spent a wonderful, delicious Saturday evening here. Service was first class, food absolutely delicious. We asked for as table move and was surprised at how quickly and efficiently staff handled our request. My whole grilled Bronzino was perfectly cooked, wife's eggplant parmigiana delicious and our friends pasta were delicious. Prices were quite reasonable for this part of town and the wine list excellent. Cannot wait to return...
My recent dining experience with a couple friends turned
My recent dining experience with a couple friends turned out to be quite disappointing. Despite being a party less than 6, the waiter audaciously added a 20% tip to our bill without any input from us, completely disregarding the policy outlined on the menu which clearly states this applies only to parties of six or more. When I questioned this discrepancy, the waiter's explanations were nonsensical and only served to further frustrate us. In New York City, it's generally considered illegal for a waiter to adjust the tip amount without the customer's consent. The New York Department of Labor regulates tipping practices, and according to their guidelines, any automatic gratuity must be clearly disclosed to customers before they receive service. Automatic gratuities are typically only permissible for large parties, as specified by the restaurant's policy and disclosed on the menu. Charging a mandatory tip for a smaller party without consent could be considered deceptive and may violate consumer protection laws.
Went to have a nice dinner with 2 other friends.
We had a party of 3. At the end of the meal, the waiter came over to the table with the electronic card reader, took my card, plugged it in, and instantly clicked the 20% tip without even giving me the opportunity to choose what I would like to tip him. Keep in mind, it specifically says on the menu that a 20% gratuity would automatically be applied if the party is 6 or more people. We had 3. So I asked him why we were automatically charged 20% and he kept rambling about random things that didn't make any sense. It's unfortunate that we had this encounter. To make it worse. the lady at the front tried to make even more excuses for the waiter. I have no problems tipping 20% or even more if the service was good. It's not about the money. It's about the principle. Just to add to the rudeness and poor customer service, their front door is a bit confusing, so we were pulling on locked doors, and the lady just nudged the right door to show which one it was, but didn't bother to even hold the door after walking all the way over to the front door. This establishment clearly doesn't pride itself in customer service. Also, their utensils were dirty.
Efficient, prompt service during the lunch hour of a packed
Efficient, prompt service during the lunch hour of a packed house! Bread, olive oil and balsamic start you off. My friends went with the Rigatoni Bolognese and the seafood medley respectively. Yum I went with the Beet Ravioli special which was delicious! I'll be back for dinner- no complaints...
Not Great
Not as great as I recall on last visit - food was too salty and over cooked. Overpriced for mediocre Italian. Won’t be back
This was our first restaurant that we enjoyed on our trip
This was our first restaurant that we enjoyed on our trip to experience the Christmas festivals in the big city. The staff was amazing and our servers were amazing. We had a wonderful meal and would dine here on another visit to the city. Try the Veal, very tender and the marinara was excellent
My reservation for 1 was for 6:15 on Friday evening Instead
My reservation for 1 was for 6:15 on Friday evening Instead being seated in the main dining room, I was given a seat at a table in the side room with a door that was sometimes closed. There was a table near by with three people who were engaged in what I considered loud conversation about someone's health issues. It was not a comfortable space for me as a result. I have been to this restaurant several times when I have visited NYC and have stayed at a hotel nearby. I was seated in the main dining room for all those solo visits. I am a single woman and it felt like I was put in the room because of that. I could be wrong. The waiter told me the tables in the main dining room were filled with people with reservations. I had a reservation so that did not make sense. Back to the food I ordered a glass of wine and a veal entree. The wine was delivered immediately. The entree followed soon afterwards. The food was delicious, as usual. By the time I was almost finished with eating my entree, two women had been seated beside me and an another couple had previously been seated on the other side of me. That was great. The bad news was I waited and waited for the waiter to look my way once I finished my entree. He brought food to the women beside me but did not look my way. So I waited.He eventually asked if I wanted dessert and I said no. he asked if I wanted another glass of wine. Again I said no. He did not bring the check. Finally, I made eye contact with the hostess who brought me my check. I think the food is terrific. What I did not appreciate is how the service made me feel. That is why this review is so long.The food has always been great. But I did not feel respected
Came to Cellini for a vendor party and it was very good.
The restaurant has a very welcoming interior, has a coat check, and very nice decor. We had our gathering upstairs and it was the perfect size for the attendees. Throughout the entire four hours, the staff kept coming out with amazing hors d'oeuvres (pizza, steak, tuna, classic, Chicken Fiorentina, sausage, meatballs, riceballs). In another room, they had a buffet with salad, pasta, gnocchi, and amazing garlic bread. The bartenders were busy the entire evening and kept everyone very content. I am very confident, that the downstairs main restaurant will be just as memorable as how they host events. If you're ever invited to Cellini......run there. You will be throughly impressed with every aspect of your experience.
Last time we were in the city they generously took us in
Last time we were in the city they generously took us in very close to closing as we promised to be quick. Lovely people and excellent food especially the eggplant. We were just in Friday night and had to go again this time we each got our own eggplant instead of sharing. It's that good. I also appreciate a nice wine by the glass. Next time we will go back to try more of the menu. After the eggplant appetizer that is.
I found myself at Cellini for an educational work dinner.
Being an Italian restaurant in Midtown, I went in with low expectations but also an open mind since I always try to approach new places from a positive mindset. That being said, I was looking forward to checking this spot out and learning something new. Cellini serves up Italian food - like many Manhattan restaurants, the space is kinda tight inside - it was crowded when we arrived but were led to a private room on the side so we were away from much of the crowds. The room was interesting - it almost looked like an add-on to the space. There were two doors to enter that both looked like ones found in residential homes (one was actually a sliding door as seen to enter onto a patio). This room was tight but since it was just us it worked - plus they did up the decor nice. To my surprise, we were actually given free reigns to order our apps and mains off the menu - these dinners are usually prix fixe so it was a refreshing to see; there were, however, some small starters and dessert that were set. We started with margherita pizza on flatbread and sausage; these were both tasty - both were solid offerings. For my actual app I went with the tre colore salad; this was fine - nothing too outstanding and I thought the portion was a smidge too small. For my main I had the Chicken Fiorentina which was boneless breasts in a white wine sauce topped with mozzarella. It was paired with mashed potatoes and spinach with garlic. The dish was pretty good - it had good flavor with the spinach being my favorite component. It was a solid dish overall albeit nothing too outstanding. For dessert we were each given a sampling of three items: ricotta cheesecake, tiramisu, and a chocolate mousse cake. The desserts were fine - the ricotta cheesecake was my favorite, the mousse cake was just okay, and the tiramisu was good albeit a little too strong in espresso flavor. Service was good, and overall I thought Cellini was a solid Midtown Italian spot - I wouldn't be against returning, but I'm not necessarily running back.
Loved it - great meal, fair price
Loved it! Really nice fresh salad, beautifully cooked and delicious pasta, great service, good wine, and fair prices. I think my spaghetti carbonara was the overall winner for our meal, and I'd happily go back any time and have it again.

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!
Payouts Blocked Because of Sell Through Rate
Yes unfortunately they are finding more and more ways to lock up sellers money. Sell thru rate, refund rate, limiting withdrawal amounts ler day and per month (which for me are the same number which makes no sense). Lot of sellers leaving as you can see from the lifetime sales not really increasing. Most posts on here are frustrated sellers which is not a recipe for success
Tune into NBC News - Top Story Tonight 7:40p ET
Let’s go. Get more people placing bids!
I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
