"Osteria Cotta, Upper West Side by Ken Pao. Cotta is a beautiful Italian restaurant with a really cool layout that reminds me of a cozy Italian courtyard. When you walk in, you'll notice instantly the high ceilings, rustic design and open aired kitchen. There is an adorable upstairs area as well with plenty of seating and a lounge as well. The food is incredible and affordable. Almost everything i've had there is hearty and tasty. Check out the pizza's and risotto balls which are pretty. Cotta is always a great place to go with a group of people or on an intimate date. Highly recommended."
