Old Italy makes the stylish acquaintance of modish Yorkville at this sleek trattoria where well-priced regional dishes put out a siren call to lovers of fine Italian cuisine everywhere. Whether it's an on-the-go lunch or a lingering vino-lubricated dinner, Dimmi is the place to be. The restaurant's extensive antipasto menu gets diners started, then follows up with a selection of tangy pastas, pizzas and foccacios. The space, all dark wood and leather, is open enough to make for an airy dining experience while still being intimate enough to make for a romantic one. In the summer, the beautiful souls spill onto a charming patio and the unrivalled sport of people-watching picks up from there. In the winter, bypass the meal-culminating hot coffee drinks at your peril.more...See more text
We had to return the angel hair pasta - an oily cup of slimy pasta with a little tomato basil sauce for $13! You can't help but feel like a chump eating this; I mean, so uninteresting, bland and about .50 cents to make yourself. The ambiance is nice, but next time I'll sit at the park across the street with a picnic lunch. The waitress was horribly rude. We strongly suggest that you avoid this place!
My friend and I used to love this resto, but our last visit was a fiasco. Only 1 other table, and the waiter couldn't handle us all. He had the audacity to argue with us when we told him the pasta was not cooked--it was still HARD (not "al dente"; we're not idiots)--and then had the chef retoss the same pasta in a warm pan, and tried to serve it to us again! Having had decent service from him before. But it was such a singularly, memorably terrible experience that we will never go again. Bad service is one thing; violence is another! But avoid this place like the plague.

The most friendly place with the best atmosphere. Very relaxed, but wonderful! The food was fantastic. Starting from the famous fried calamari and mystery sauce to the risotto with fish and a spectacular creme brulee. Fantastico!!!
