Trattoria Tra di Noi: Authentic Italian Seafood Restaurant in Bronx

Delicious and totally legit – I could eat here every day. The waitstaff are extremely attentive and knowledgeable. The old-school tablecloths and classic tunes create the perfect nostalgic vibe. Easy to hold a conversation, and overall a great experience every time. Whether you’re popping in for a quick lunch or kicking back for a chill dinner, Tra Di Noi always hits the spot. Totally worth it.

We had an excellent lunch here, having found our way from the Botanical Garden’s orchid show (Mr Flower Fantastic this year.) We were given a lovely table by the window, and everything that followed was perfect—attentive waiter, interesting specials, good food.

Went here for the first time today to have a leisurely lunch with my parents. We sat by the window, so we got to take in Belmont’s street life while enjoying the best Italian-American food I’ve had since living in NYC. Everything was prepared simply and packed with flavor. The staff was very attentive, and the owners, who were both sitting in the dining room the whole time, were very welcoming.

We go down to Arthur Ave for dinner from time to time and always like to try a new place. Tonight we decided on Tra Di Noi. It's on 187th street around the corner from Arthur Ave. The restaurant is small and cozy and has the old school Italian restaurant red checkered table cloths. We were greeted warmly by the hostess and seated at table against the wall in the dining Area. The table had salt, pepper, bread dishes, utensil set ups with a napkin and an olive oil bottle. A waiter came over and explained the specials to us and took out drink order. The waiter then brought us bread and water to start. They only have beer and wine and I asked for a non alcoholic beer but they don't serve it. The menu is small but has something for everyone and the specials more than make up for the smaller size menu. We ordered fried calamari and a mussels special for the appetizers. The calamari was ok. It was fried a little harder then I like but it was a nice size for 2 people and came with tubes and baby octopus. The Marinara with it was a little bland for my taste. The mussels in white wine appetizer was fantastic and a great portion. For the entree we had an order of the pork chop with vinegar peppers specials and a rigatoni special. Both entrees were delicious and they came with a small plate of fingerling potatoes and string beans that were nicely sauteed with garlic and oil. We split a piece of homemade Italian cheesecake and I had an espresso and both were absolutely delicious. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable and attentive. The waiter came by and offered us more bread which a lot of places dont do. This is a real Italian restaurant owned and operated by real Italians which is something that is hard to come by these days in the Italian restaurant business. The food is as close to homemade as you can get. It's not mass produced so you are not going to get heaping portions like you may get in other places but what you do get is a dish that is crafted with care to be as authentic as possible. The restaurant is quiant and cozy and is staffed by friendly people. We left the restaurant happy and you will as well.

My boyfriend & I walked in & didn’t realize they were closing early due to the winter season. However, we were still seated & given excellent service by Luigi. The lasagna & Carbonara are AMAZING. Will definitely be back

This was the best accident to find… the owner Mr. Marco and his staff were all amazing! He made lunch for his staff and cooks, closing so they could enjoy a meal together… he is a one of a kind chef and everything was better than delicious!

Our son brought us to this restaurant before we moved to New York City. We have been back many times. It reminds me of our family’s , favorite restaurant from my childhood. The kind of Italian food your friend’s grandmother would make . High quality, Homestyle, Italia food, large portions, friendly staff, and a kind owner . A recipe for success

Phenomenal, Exquisite, Delicous. The best Veal Limon I have experienced. Traditional home-cooking style meals. Quick service. Quaint but sophisticated. Very friendly staff. 10/10 reccomend this hidden gem.
