One of the BEST restaurants in the World! These amazing $7 panini baked on homemade cracker bread are magical. Everything else, from pasta to sausage and beans is heave. This place is special. A gem!
The New YorkerGiugno 18, 2015At Gaia, "oven-baked dishes satisfy cravings for simple, homemade food, such as meatballs and potatoes generously dusted with Parmesan crumbles." Leggi tutto
Wesley BlissDicembre 28, 2016Be polite & don't ask for substitutions or she will kill you. But otherwise she's very nice, and the homemade food is so very worth it. Seasonal treats like torrone appear when available too!
Alice LaiAprile 26, 2015Been here numerous times and loved everything so far! Really enjoyed the lasagna, chicken milanese, antipasto platter, and the dessert pastry that looks like a mini croissant with Nutella filling.
Clement ChanDicembre 4, 2014Make reservations at least a day ahead on Fri & Sat! This place is such a hidden (literally) gem, very authentic Italian food. The owner even customized my meal when I told her I'm lactose intolerant.
PureWowAgosto 5, 2016This casual panini joint just went up ten notches in our book. Why? Because we can bring in a bottle of 2006 Maculan Pino & Toi to drink with our prosciutto and mozz sammy. Leggi tutto
AmateurConciergeLuglio 24, 2014There's a reason this was in the Top 5 on the new cheap eats list. Gnocchi is incredible and not as heavy as you fear. Really home cooked feel.
Lizzy SaxeNovembre 30, 2016Gaia's menu is limited but delicious. I especially like the meat lasagna and the antipasto platter. So much great food for such a great price!
Check the board near the counter for daily pasta specials. All of their pastas are incredible. Try to come during weekday lunch (reservations required for dinner).
Phil PMaggio 28, 2016Pasta of the day is very delicious, and hearty! Beef tortellini, in tomato sauce mixed with baby octopus, mussels and fish
Kayla GibsonFebbraio 20, 2014Delicious, and reasonably priced. Order a couple items, the food portions aren't gigantic. Go during the week to avoid crowds. Bubi Panini ($5) is outstanding, as is the Spinach/Ricotta Gnocchi ($7)
JeffreyLuglio 13, 2014Dinner is Fri-Sat, when the kitchen is open until 7:30 and 9:30, make a reservation; only 18. homespun, absurdly affordable Italian salads, sandwiches, and pasta; bakes her own focaccia and pastries.- AmateurConciergeAgosto 1, 2014You cannot go wrong with ingredients like these. Gnocchi is amazing and unique (almost no flour), panini "bread" is great....so crisp.
- Nate BeattyAprile 13, 2015Paninis are piled high and served on the most delicious, super thin, homemade bread. Best value, super high quality lunch in NYC.
Kirill KukuruzaLuglio 23, 2016Pasta, ravioli, lasagna, panini, and everything are really good. Don't forget to BYOB.
Marcus RaimondiGennaio 4, 2017Gaia is truly a gem. The amazing, high-quality food is the star here; you can taste the passion and commitment of the owner with each bite. Can't recommend then paninis enough!
SunainaOttobre 28, 2014Hole in a wall place just outside of little Italy. But it's the closest to authentic Italian that's cooked in what looks like your aunts home. BYOB. Simple and tasty food. Portions are huge.
Nicolette RomeroDicembre 19, 2015Looking for a cheap lunch? Then this is your spot. Everything is super cheap and delicious. I'm usually a pasta person, but my favorites were the antipasto platter and Delicato panini.
James MarshallOttobre 16, 2015The food here is tremendous. A totally overlooked spot. Amazing prices. Just go and get whatever the specials are. Hidden gem.
TomAprile 7, 2016Authentic, affordable, and BYOB. They open and close early. Reservations are required for dinner. Must try!
We love the chicken cutlet sandwich, all her pasta of the day and leave room for the pastries!
New York HabitatNovembre 9, 2011Oh how we love the paninis here, and they're just 5 bucks! If you're in the area, stop in for a quick bite or just to say hi to the owner, Gaia.
Arielle HayatFebbraio 24, 2013Authentic Italian cuisine! U can instantly be transported from Houston to a city in Northern Italy. Force yourself to top it all off with the fabulous homemade Nutella pastries-u can't have just1bite
Easily the best panini on the LES, if not all of NYC. just $5. everythig else on the menu is dope. Authentic Italian soul food. Easy. Affordable. Eat here.
Sarah WhiteOttobre 27, 2014Paninis are to die for. Pretty much everything is fresh and fantastic... Homemade taste and vibe. Very inexpensive. A truly authentic Italian restaurant.- Graham GnallNovembre 3, 2017Amazing sandwiches. Check hours before going in evening. Reservations only for dinner.
ToshieMaggio 14, 2014If you're nice to Gaia, she might give you a little extra something. On Mondays they have pizza day and it is (as everything else) delicious!
Sarah CareyNovembre 14, 2011This place is amazing! I'm so sad I didn't find it sooner on my trip to NYC. Everything is fresh and homemade and tastes delicious and you can't beat the price for the food! Thank you Gaia!
AdrienOttobre 28, 2015It feels home, the specials change everyday, my favorite is the meat on Wednesdays.
Don't leave without getting the spinach ricotta gnocchi or the pesto lasagna!
Amazing authentic Italian food in a very relaxed atmosphere with the kindest staff ever.
Gajtana SimonovskaDicembre 10, 2017Excellent food and reasonable prices in a throwback vibe with great service.- The Taste SheriffGennaio 7, 2015Cheap and affordable eatery for lunch. Get the prosciutto panini or the pesto salad. Pastas are good too.
Soliloquy MarketingSettembre 4, 2013Awesome place to grab a coffee and do some work downtown. Authentic and unique italian fare. Try a panini for only 5 bucks!
msMarzo 12, 2015Delicious, affordable, and unique while still authentic. Difficult to choose between the lasagna and panini as a fave
Mike RobinsonMarzo 8, 2015Really fantastic pasta and ravioli - this is a great 'off the tour guide' restaurant with no frills and great food
Phoebe TranMarzo 24, 2013Their pesto lasagna is a great light and decadent baked dish on the menu..for paninis, the goloso and Milanese are my favorite!
Kate FurmanLuglio 2, 2015Yes the panini is worth the hype. Thin homemade bread with a lot of filling. And only five bucks!
Facundo DMaggio 30, 2015Llevá tu propio vino y disfrutá de una verdadera comida italiana. Me sentí como comiendo en la casa de la famiglia. Un placer. :)
Mike ByhoffGennaio 10, 2012Such a hidden gem. The sandwiches are SO good and at $5 bucks a pop, makes me think that this place may have mob ties? Either way, awesome sandwiches.
Honghui YuFebbraio 2, 2019The spinach and ricotta gnocchi here are incredible. Meatballs are also worth a try.
Tina ZFebbraio 16, 2019Really good bread. I’d come back to try the amazing looking salad and panini.
Zhenya BriskerFebbraio 20, 2012Great food!!! not thrilled with the how ordering/paying for food was organized. BUT that was totally offset by ridiculously low prices and really tasty food!!! Go GO GO
Authentic gnocchi and real infredients! This place is one of my favourite italian spot in manhattan
David HuMarzo 8, 2014Fantastic little Italian place. Grab some friends, make a reservation, and eat family style. The lasagna is a must try!
Kathryn DGiugno 24, 2018Spinach and ricotta gnocchi plus salad easily feeds two. Bring your own wine.
