    Frito Misto was excellent. Octopus was poorly prepared and tasteless. Service was great throughout.

    Always a delightful dining experience at Il Corso. Menu staples and specials are always fresh and delicious. Service is attentive and personal but not intrusive. Every time I come to NYC you can find me here.
