Fritto Di Calamari
Kamryn W.

Surprised I haven't reviewed Incontro yet! It's a hidden gem in downtown Danville. The patio is by far my favorite of any restaurant in the local area, and now that the weather is warming up it's my favorite spot for a late afternoon drink with friends. Although, it is fun to sit by the outdoor fireplace on a cold night with a good drink! The food is consistently good; I wouldn't call it "amazing" or creative, but it's consistent and it's good, and that in itself can be considered amazing for a restaurant ;) What stands out more than the food are the drinks- this is typically where I recommend for a night cap or meeting for a drink with friends. The ambiance is cozy, and the patio has fun people watching. The service is always attentive, which has become a lost art in such a tough hiring market-- they are doing something right to have such great talent, with a few waiters I've recognized for the last three plus years. On the latest visit, I was impressed with how attentive and aware the manager was- the restaurant is cozy and intimate, but very spread out with multiple rooms and a multi-level patio that wraps the building. She knew exactly what was happening at each table, and how to better everyone's experience. Impressive, kudos! Overall, this is a beloved staple in downtown Danville, where so many of the restaurants have become too focused on the Danville aesthetic and not on the experience.

Vegan rigatoni

The best part of this place is the place. The decoration is great and its a nice place to sit. The food is bland and overpriced. I got crab farfalla, my sister got carbonara, my brother got vegan rigatoni and my mom got chicken Marsala. My sister loved her carbonara but the rest of us were pretty unimpressed. Not to mention the ingredients for the vegan dish must of costed like $5 to make but was sold for $27. Idk the service was alright. It was a Mother's Day dinner so we hoped our mom would like it but she didn't. Still had a good time because with family but wouldn't recommend unless you like bland overpriced food.

We had a 7 pm dinner reservation a couple weekends ago. It was our first time trying this restaurant and also visiting Danville. The street parking was all filled up by the restaurant so we turned to the back side of the block where we found a small lot for the restaurant and a much bigger parking lot across the street. The restaurant was filled and busy for dinner. We were quickly seated at a table against the wall. The ambiance and look of the restaurant is quite nice. Each table seems to have little coat rack stands for hanging jackets and purses; a nice touch that I don't often see. The service was overall great our waiter explained the specials and gave us time to look through the menu. We were given a bread basket, standard - nothing astonishing. We ordered 3 items: Truffle Fries, the Gemelli, and Mostaccioli. The Truffle Fries were reminiscent of those at fast food restaurants, but the truffle flavor made it unique and a nice appetizer. We didn't wait too long for our pastas to arrive. The Gemelli was hearty and filling but the Mostaccioli was the most memorable. The Gemelli features lamb sugo which was flavorful and soft. Our favorite was the Mostaccioli because of the cream sauce. It was super flavorful and was much more unique than the Gemelli. Overall the service was wonderful and the portion sizes are great for how reasonably priced everything is.

We came here improperly for a nice romantic dinner. The waitstaff was lovely and attentive. We chose to sit outside and they were attentive about the heaters. We had our little doggy with us. Complimentary focaccia. We had the bruschetta which had a great balsamic to it. Then we had the Gemelli and the day special which was a Truffle Lasagna. Both were soooo good. Then for dessert was the Tiramisu, one of my favorites because I can taste the alcohol in it. All in all a perfect dinner date

My first Buffet plate

Came here for Sunday Brunch Buffet with my mom. It was fantastic! We got here early around 10:30am and we had reservations. We sat inside and the server was sweet and friendly. The food was top notch. All house made food. Everything from omelette and waffle station made to order. Cheese plate and shrimp, They have fresh made pastas and desserts to die for. For $35 and a complimentary drink you can't beat it. I will definitely be coming back.

As always, delicious food and attentive service. It was a bit hectic on the Saturday before Mother's Day but we were always checked on. I had their version of a margarita. The amaretto gave it a lovely flavor twist. The hubby had the pomegranate lemon drop. For appetizers, we ordered: Fritto Misto - always delicious Arancini- crispy and cheesy at the same time! Dinners were all delicious. I always have the Eggplant Parmegiana. Other entrees the family ordered were: Pappardelle Al Pesto Gnocchi Linguine Vongole Chicken Picatta Chicken Marsala And the special for the evening was a spicy seafood pasta

Delicious Dinner at Incontro Ristorante The lamb chops were perfectly cooked and full of flavor, paired with creamy mashed potatoes and fresh veggies. Great service and a cozy, upscale vibe. A must-visit spot in Danville!

Calamari misto (5/5)
Alejandra D.

Most of downtown Danville lost power on the 4th of July. A few places we approached said they were closed due to power loss. Hubby walked up and asked the bunch of 3-4 idle worker guys standing outside if they were opened. They gave us the most stank look ever and ignored us and seemed to think it was funny. I was about to say something to them when a girl at the host stand welcomed us in. It was HOT out so it was nice to sit inside with the AC. They had a special 4th of July brunch menu but we couldn't order from their regular menu, so boo. -fritto misto: (5/5) portion was generous and good for us 4. Great flavors on the calamari , shrimp, and veggies. -hartz salad with chicken (3/5) Chicken breast had good flavor, good portion but it was dry. The salad was very good. I should've just not added the chicken perhaps shrimp could've been the better protein. Our server was friendly and attentive. He checked on us, asked if my family wanted another drink. I didn't get his name. He was Latino though. He told us about their weekend Brunch and live music and encouraged us to return for that. Just for his service, I would come back. Perhaps the young guys out front we encountered could learn a thing or two from him about customer service.

Our experience at Incontro Ristorante was awesome. The ambiance is comfortable, nothing fancy. There is outdoor seating with heaters to keep all warm during cooler evenings. The service was very good. All of our selection of foods we ordered was excellent. For an appetizer, we ordered the Truffle Fries. The Potatoes, Parmigiano cheese and truffle oil gave a very earthy flavorful starter. For dinner, I ordered the Shrimp alla Griglia which consist of grilled shrimp with fregola pasta, garlic zucchini, lemon and parsley. It was the first time I had fregola pasta, which looked like risotto. It was very good. The overall flavor was savory and authentically Italian. The House made Lasagne consisted of lasagna cooked in a beef ragu, bechamel, with and mozzarella. Very tasty and flavorful. Another selection we ordered was the Pappardelle Al Pesto. The pappardelle was covered with house made creamy pesto and shrimp. Another excellent dish to order. Fresh house made bread is served with your meal. The bread is excellent too. Overall, our experience at Incontro Ristorante was excellent. I highly recommend giving Incontro Ristorante a try.

Happy Mother's Day to all the mom's out there! I was trying to find a restaurant that had a Mother's Day Brunch. I was looking on OpenTable and found this restaurant. I loved that there was a preset menu. From the preset menu we were able to choose one item from Zuppa e insalate, Secondi Piatti, and Dolci. My mom's selection was the following: Virgin Caprese (gf)- Tomato slices, mozzarella with basil pesto, chili oil and balsamic reduction Scallops (gf)- Seared scallops with truffle risotto and asparagus Strawberry Pana Cotta (gf)- Creamy custard with fresh strawberries puree and mixed berries My sisters selection was the following: Salmone Crostini- House cured salmon, red onions, cream cheese, capers Ravioli al Marsala- Portablello mushroom ravioli with creamy Portabello mushroom Marsala wine sauce Dolce Al Cioccolato (gf)- Chocolate lava cake served with vanilla gelato. My dad's selection: Lobster Bisque (gf)- Creamy bisque with vegetables and lobster Chicken Wellington - Chicken breast, spinach, mushrooms and ricotta wrapped in puff pastry served with asparagus and Morell mushroom sauce. Dolce Al Cioccolato (gf)- Chocolate lava cake served with vanilla gelato. My selection: Salmone Crostini- House cured salmon, red onions, cream cheese, capers Crab Benedict - Dungeness crab meat, poached egg, English muffin, Hollandaise sauce, with fresh fruit Dolce Al Cioccolato (gf)- Chocolate lava cake served with vanilla gelato. Everything we ordered was delicious! I would love to come back during dinner time. The service was great as well! Our waiter was super nice and on top of it. It was a great experience!

Came here on Sunday for lunch for party of two. It was a hot day and we wanted to sit inside. They…read morewere sure if there was any seating indoors. So we sat in the patio which had fans and nice plants which shaded well. Felt like sitting a garden and was cool. However when walked through the restaurant to the patio it was almost all empty and plenty of tables so kinda odd. Service was okay, kinda slower than I expected. Poor server also spilled water all over me but I was thankfully wearing shorts so it was okay. Food was great though! We ordered a Sedona chicken sandwich with garlic fries and chicken picatta. Sandwich was kinda like a grilled chicken burger. The thicken breast was moist and fries were crispy and tasty. Chicken picatta was delicious and perfectly mixed with mashed potatoes, spinach, capers. The chicken wasn't dry. Pear martini was the best. I would come here just for this drink. I think they home make the syrup. Old fashioned was good but a little sweet.

Food: The Caesar salad was a bit bland. The croutons were…read morealmost invisible, and their small size made it difficult to appreciate any texture. The mussels, however, were excellent--generously sized and served with a well-balanced blend of herbs and lemon that complemented the dish nicely. Service: The waitstaff were adequate, but the busboys stood out for their friendliness, attentiveness, and politeness. Ambience: The restaurant has a pleasant atmosphere, featuring high ceilings and a beautifully renovated interior that creates an inviting dining environment.

Location is perfect, ample parking nearby and ambience is super chic and cozy. Calamari- 10/10. Small portion though, we should have ordered a 2nd appetizer. Bread/Butter- it seems like they're rationing butter....the plate had enough to coat *maybe* 1.5 rolls Chilean Seabass- 9/10 Prawn Tacos 9/10 The signature bourbon drink was 10/10....wish we ordered a couple more. The hostess was kind and sat us immediately, but seemed a little stressed out, could just be due a very busy night. A warm smile goes a long way. Our waitress was Catherine, absolutely wonderful and so friendly. She was patient and sweet. The kind of hire Tides should feel lucky to have. The only reason I gave 4 stars and not 5....the Grey seats we were seated in are so low, felt like we had to stand up every time we reached across table and could barely hear each other. Beautiful decor but not super practical for dining. Will definitely return soon.
