My favorite Italian

by gijoerice at Citysearch

Cono's is an amazing place. It's a pretty basic red-sauce type joint, but the quality they put into the food outshines all the rest. It doesn't hurt that their seafood is fresh and more tasty than in some places that supposedly specialize only in seafood. Their mussels are incomparable. The broth may be simple to make, but nobody does it quite so well. I'm always severely tempted to pick up the bowl and just down the broth like a viking. The waitstaff is charming and knowledgeable about the menu. And about wine. And about other things, too, I bet. I just haven't asked them about other things. Anyway. I recommend things with seafood and DO try wine lover's night. Don't just get a 20 dollar bottle for ten. Get a big expensive one and you're really saving more that way if you think about it. And it's totally worth it. Love it.

• Pros: seafood, service, mussels
• Cons: THERE ARE NO CONS AT CONOS!

I love this place

by wlpaek at Citysearch

It's the kind of neighborhood place where you want to be a regular. Tuesdays are "Wine Lovers" nights, where everything on their wine list is half off - it's a great deal. My fiance and I always get mussels a la Cono and linguine a la Cono, but all the other pasta dishes I've tried have been good or excellent. The sandwiches from the take out window are delicious too. Staff is friendly, service is excellent.

THE TITLE SAYS IT ALL, BUT LET ME GO FURTHER. BOY AM I PICKY PERSON TO PLEASE BUT THEY DID PLEASE ME. THE SERVICE WAS GREAT. MY WAITER WAS VERY ATTENTIVE TO ME. THE PORTIONS WERE UNBELIEVABLE. FOR ONCE I LEFT A RESTAURANT FULL. THE DECOR TOOK ME STRAIGHT BACK TO ITALY RIGHT ALONG WITH CONO SR. SINGING GOOD OLD ITALIAN TOONS IN THE BACK GROUND. THE FOOD WAS DELISH SINCE CONO SR. IS FROM ITALY AND BROUGHT MAMA'S COOK TO WILLIAMSBURG. THE PRICE IS VERY, VERY, RESONABLE CONSIDERING THE HUGE PORTION YOU WILL GET. AND LISTEN UP MOM'S IT IS KID FRIENDLY. SO HAVE A NIGHT OUT AND TELL JOE THE BARTENDER I SENT YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

• Pros: INEXPENSIVE, FREE PARKING, RELAXING
• Cons: NONE, NONE, NONE
