Pretty realistic - Edit
Italian is not my favorite cuisine but partner loves it, so we decided to give this place a try. The pork fennel arancini were very good—So good that I’ll probably never order them anywhere else because I’ll always be sad that they’re not as good as these. My partner enjoyed the truffle mushroom pizza, and I liked the salmon risotto. It was very reminiscent of actual salmon. Overall, the food was very good, but we’re typically more interested in creative plant-forward cuisine rather than traditional dishes, so we probably won’t be back for a while.

Great vegan pasta and solid vegan pizza! - Edit
I’ve been to Coletta many times! Great ambience. While the vegan pizza is still a classic (especially the Wild Mushroom Truffle), the quality of the main cheese used seems to have changed over the years. But the vegan ricotta still is unparalleled. The vegan pizza is fantastic!
Read moreOrdered the following this last time:
- Wild Mushroom Truffle
- Cacio e Pepe
I’ve previously tried the following which I’d recommend:
- Lumache all’s Vodka

Hands down best Vegan Italian in NYC! - Edit
Coletta is one of those rare finds in New York that feels instantly special. It’s intimate, inviting, and everything on the menu—from the handmade pasta to the house-baked bread—is crafted with real care.
Read moreMy personal standouts? The carbonara (creamy, rich, and unforgettable) and the calamari, which is made with crispy oyster mushrooms—absolutely genius and so satisfying. Whether you’re looking for a romantic date night spot, a cozy dinner with friends, or a family-style meal to share, Coletta hits the mark.
We opted for a bottle of wine from their impressive list, though the cocktails coming out of the bar looked incredible too. Safe to say we’ll be back soon—especially to check out that weekend brunch everyone keeps talking about.
A must-visit for anyone who appreciates beautiful food in a beautiful space.
Pros: Pasta, Wine, Calamari

Crazy good! - Edit
Great restaurant!! We started with the cheeseboard, which was not only visually appealing, everything on the board was amazing. Also had the house salad, which was simple, but very tasty. For entrees, I had the Campanelle al Tartufo, and my husband had the Tagliatelle al’ Ragu. Both were delicious. For dessert, we had the Tiramisu, which was very rich. Thoroughly enjoyed every bite!!
Read moreThey also have a creative cocktail list. I tried the Ciao Bella (tequila, basil, vanilla, strawberry, lime and rose water) which was very refreshing. My husband had the That’s Amore (bourbon, amaro, vanilla, cinnamon and chocolate), also delicious Both were very nicely balanced cocktails.
I highly recommend this place! I wish we had time to try the pizzas, as they looked fantastic, but that will have to wait until next time we are in NYC!
Pros: Cozy relaxing atmosphere , Delicious fully vegan menu , Super friendly staff

Exceptional service, great cheese & fig - Edit
I almost ordered delivery, but I'm so glad I went there instead because the service was exceptional! The cultured cheese board is amazing. All of the cheeses taste perfect, and the fig is beautiful. You get both fresh fig and fig jam.
Read moreThe hot honey pizza is my favorite pizza I've had. The Sicilian olive oil cake is really good too, not too sweet and the texture of the cake and cream are very nice.

Absolutely fabulous restaurant with several delicious dishes. I loved the meatballs and the garlic knots. My partner loved the vegan steak. The olive oil cake was very good and not too sweet (I like desserts this way!). The pasta we got was nice, but I wouldn’t get it again, as the flavors weren’t for me.

Words fail me - Edit
This was one of the greatest meals I’ve had in my life. The flavors brought me to an altered state of consciousness. Got the cheese board which alone is worth the visit, along with the salmon and the sausage ravioli, and tiramisu to finish. The risotto was complex and balanced, the salmon tasted like salmon with a perfect crust, the ravioli was smokey and creamy. I plan to return as many times as it takes to try the entire menu

Best Vegan Meal - Edit
I think hands down this is the best vegan meal I've had of my life! Wow oh wow! We started off with the special which was a lemon ricotta ravioli, then had the bread with oil & vinegar, eggplant lasagna, carbonara, and olive oil can for dessert. The stand outs were definitely the bread, ravioli, & cake. We weren't as impressed/wowed with our entrees but still amazing. Drinks were also out of this world, probably the best sangria I've ever had!! The waitstaff was also fantastic and very caring. 10/10 would recommend and will probably be back!

Very happy! - Edit
The dishes I had were very full of flavor! I first ordered the puttanesca meatballs. These were super seasoned and delicious and they came with garlic knots! I then ordered the Campanelle Al Tartufo. A very tasty pasta dish, which the waiter had recommended me. It says on the menu it is in a “light cream sauce” but I would say it’s more of an oil, very good though because the flavors work wonderfully together. I ordered the tiramisu for dessert and it was absolute perfection, the sweetness level was tasteful.
Read more*The food came out extremely fast. If you come in on a slow night. I recommend ordering your appetizer first and then your entree after you finish your appetizer. The table next to me had their entrees come out to the table and sent them back because they hadn’t received their appetizer yet! Such a waste!

Great pizza - Edit
Came in for brunch and ordered the egg yolk arancini, fig and feta salad, parsley garlic knots, and the amazing wild mushroom truffle pizza.
Read moreThe arancini was great and when you open it up, the egg yolk oozes out (I wonder what they use for the egg yolk?). Next I really enjoyed the pizza. In my experience, whenever something has truffle, it completely overpowers the other flavors. This is not the case here. All ingredients synced together harmoniously.

Loved this place. There used to be a place by the name Sestina (not as good as Sestina) but this place is great. My live knew the garlic rolls were a fine choice so we had that side as an appetizer.
