• wedding reception

  We had our wedding at Misi this past weekend, and not only was it the best wedding food our guests said they have had, but simply the best food. It was an incredible venue to work with for a private event - Kate was extremely responsive and accommodating and made the whole process very easy. The entire team was professional, organized, thoughtful, and went above and beyond. They customized the menu to our preferences and provided an incredible feast for our guests. Our wedding was just this past weekend and we've already booked our next dinner reservation! Highly highly recommend if you're looking for an incredibly memorable experience.

• large family party

  Had a large family group for a party and it was great. They paid a lot of attention to the group. Food came out family style but we paid extra and the food was rich full of flavor....we order tons of veggies and various pasta dishes. Great crowd of people work hard especially the cooks and waitresses and even the manager was on top of it.

• private room birthday

  I hosted my birthday dinner in the private room at Misi and had a phenomenal experience! Kate Kolbinsky was an incredible helping setting up the special evening and went above and beyond to make it a memorable experience. Highly highly recommend!

• private room dinner

  Food was absolutely delicious - we ordered the whipped ricotta crostini, sun dried tomatoes, and a few pastas. The brown butter tortelli was to die for! We were seated late which was fine but we’re put in their “private dining room” which did not have the same ambiance as the rest of the restaurant - seemed to be a spare kitchen area. It was fine but we would have preferred an area in the buzzing main area of the restaurant. Service was good!

• family celebration dinner, party of 8

  My husband and I have been a loyal customer at Misi Pasta for 6 years, but after this recent experience, we plan to never go back. What was supposed to be a special Sukkot and welcome celebration dinner with our family visiting from abroad turned into a nightmare. It all started with a mistake made by Misi staff on our reservation. We clearly told them during booking (made 3/4 weeks in advance in person) that our party would consist of 2 kids (under age 10) and 6 adults—yet when we arrived, they had us down as a party of 7. The kids (twins) are both under age 10, eat kosher, and would only eat plain pasta boiled in water with salt. But the restaurant manager seemed incapable of understanding this basic dietary restriction request and accommodating such a simple request. Upon arrival, first my mother in law was kept waiting standing (60 year old woman) without being offered a chair and then later I had to stand for 15 minutes with no seat, no hospitality, while the Misi staff tried to figure out their mistake with the manager. Not once were we offered a chair, even though my husband and I have been loyal customers since Misi opened. Eventually, the staff told us we couldn’t sit at our chosen table due to a “fire hazard,” even though there was a private room next to us filled with 20-50 people cramped together—a much bigger fire hazard if you ask me! After keeping us waiting another 10 minutes, the manager insisted (without accepting their reservation mistake and without trying to be accommodating to our family) that we needed to order double dishes with a maximum of 4 dishes because it will put a "strain on the kitchen." He basically came to our table and told us what we can and cannot order. The manager's audacity and privileged attitude were astonishing, as he approached our table of 8 and dictated what we were allowed to order. This level of disregard for customer choice is unacceptable and something we have never encountered before in our life. This is despite us clearly stating that the kids would ONLY be eating plain pasta due to their kosher diet. He completely ignored the fact that we were ordering for 6 adults and that the kids’ food request was incredibly simple. Apparently, plain pasta “puts a strain on the kitchen.” And ordering all 6/7 flavors Gelato's on the menu for dessert—which is simply scooped by one person in the back kitchen—was somehow also a strain? Ridiculous! When things got heated- the Misi staff were in corners giggling by the bar and gossiping about the whole situation which made us as guests feel more unwelcome. The Misi when it first started, and the one I used to know was humble, welcoming, and considerate. Over the years- its become very stuck up. Most of the time we put up with all the "rules" and bad hospitality just because we enjoyed the pasta. Now, they act like they know better than their customers, dictating what you can and can’t eat. This experience was the last straw (and a major discriminatory behavior by the manager when he clearly dismissed the fact that the kids are not eating from the menu) that left a sour taste in my mouth and my family's. I’m so disappointed that a place we once loved has now become so pretentious, inhospitable, unwelcoming and dismissive by the people who are supposed to be representatives of the brand Misi. We won’t be returning. The Misi chapter has ended for us.
