- RRobertGoldNew York City •36 reviews5.0Dined on 10 Oct 2026Wonderful experience from start to finish. We were seated on time as per our reservation in a corner table of the 2nd floor. The room was bright and decorated with an international flair. We shared the stuffed pumpkin appetizer- DELICIOUS! (Only available for a limited time). Then I had the Veal. Milanese and my husband had the skirt steak w/chimichurra. All cooked fresh to order and very tasty. For dessert we asked the waitress to surprise us with something to share and she brought us a decadent tres leches cake which I will be dreaming about! We did not feel rushed and had an enjoyable evening. We will be back!More infoSergio's Missione$$$$• Italian• Lodi•4.7
