Gina la Fornarina

Brand new on the Italian UES spot is a great scene on a warm Sunday night. Gina la Fornarina is an open air place has one long retractable wall that makes the whole place open right up to 2nd Avenue with a bunch of tables outside. Very cool decor with good lighting and white chairs and white weather washed tables which gave a vintage effect despite being brand new.

As for the food, it is primarily tapas style with large portions as we ordered roughly 6 dishes for a table of 4. The hen was unreal and their marherita pizza was pretty tasty. Call me a geek, but I also really liked their beer glasses (right).

Overall, place was good and reasonably priced. Worth hitting it up. Go soon while it's warm.
