COVID kept us away. But we had a significant business milestone and achievement to celebrate. Where did I chose? Campania! As great as I remembered. Fabulous service and wonderful meal. read more

Good good food. Ambiance is great small place but the quality is great. Try to reserve the table that can view the kitchen. It's a fun place to sit. read more

First time here and honestly I think it's my first time at an authentic Italian restaurant! So much surprise by the food, the environment, the service and everything! Starting off when my friends and I walked in to this restaurant, we were amazed by the pretty indoor design of La Campania. It was definitely a perfect place for dating! The design made me feel like I'm in mid-century Europe haha. We ordered the fig and duck pizza which was absolutely stunning, I like the combination. The grilled oyster was a bit salty for me especially the cheese on top of it, but first bite it was impressive. My fav dish would probably be the veal chop as I haven't had this juicy texture of beef in a while which I absolutely love not to mention I don't eat beef on a daily basis. The creamy potato sauce on top of the veal was everything! The risotto in my opinion was alright, it's kind of weird that they have corn inside made it sweet and salty in the same time, not my personal type of dish haha. But the soufflé was everything I was looking for in a dessert! It was put in a fine pottery, the ice cream was perfectly blended with the hot chocolate underneath, making it the best dessert for a cold chilly winter day. Also, almost forget to mention how good the bread was lol. Have to dip it with the sauce they served it set the tone of the whole meal lol. Anyway, I would absolutely come back here for a second visit, try more food on the menu and just enjoy the inner environment again! read more

Pictures do not do a justice. La Campania has been on my list for several years but I kept deferring since I thought it was just another Italian Restaurant. I'm normally not a fan of an Italian food in the US. My friends have been raving about this place so I decided to go. There is another Italian restaurant in town that has good review but my friends said this one was the best. I wish I tried it sooner. It's now will be my go to place. The food is very flavorful and solid desserts. They serve quality tea from Harney & Sons as well. Lobster Gnocchi 5/5 - The Gnocchi is one of the best. Melted in my mouth. The lobster was cooked perfect. Medium rare which is the way it should be. Roasted Beet "Insalata" 5/5 - Solid dish. Nothing special but very good Poached Octopus 5/5 - the Octopus was very tender. One of the best I've had. It's simple but you have to like Octopus to like this dish Rack of Lamb 6/5 - this is their most popular dish. It seasons really well. Very well executed Veal Chop 4/5 - I may have given this a 5 star if we didn't try the lamb. The veal taste milder comparing to the lamb dish but it's still good. Salt Encrusted Whole Branzino 5/5 - we had one as a whole and another one that they fillet for us. Prepared in a simple way, with Olive Oil, just like how they do it in Europe. It's a light dish. Chocolate Soufflé - 4.5/5 - I would have given it a 5 star if they would called it a chocolate molten cake. It's not the typical light fluffy soufflé. It's heavier and thicker but tasted very good. Assorted Pastries - 5/5 I didn't expect to like this. It was such as surprise that all 3 Pastries were very good. I love the mini pecan tart best. The Panna Cotta was nice and light, too. The restaurant is small. I was surprised that the noise level wasn't that loud which was a plus. The service was good, not great. Some severs didn't seem to enjoy their job that much but they all tried. Easy parking on the street or in the back of the restaurants. All in all... I'll be back! read more

We recently celebrated our anniversary at La Campania and it was a wonderful experience. From the first conversation with the host making the reservation over the phone, to several staff wishing us a good night and Happy Anniversary, the service was like family. Tom our waiter was quick to help us choose a wonderful red sparkling wine to toast the night, which we also enjoyed with the made to order hot chocolate soufflé for dessert. My husband, who travels the world, said the Veal Saltimbocca was the best he had ever tasted! I enjoyed the seafood risotto and caprese salad with heirloom tomatoes. The atmosphere, the open kitchen, our cozy table for two made for a wonderful dinner experience! Thank you, Tom!! p.s. The Lucente Toscana wine with dinner was delicious. Thank you La Campania! read more

Food, ambience, and service are all a 5/5. My family has been here a couple of times now to celebrate special occasions. The food is always delicious, the service is incredible, and the ambience is quiet and cozy. If you get a chance to sit at the table with a view into the kitchen, definitely do it, because it's a real privilege to watch the chefs at work. The real standout at my most recent visit was the service. Our waiter was, as always, helpful with recommending drinks for the table. However, the best part of the night was that the service caught on to my obsession with their bread and olive oil and GAVE ME A LOAF OF THEIR FRESH, DAILY MADE BREAD TO TAKE HOME. That's how you do it right. I'm partial to their pastas and desserts (shoutout to the gnocchi, campanelle, and pappardelle, and the hot chocolate soufflé that you need to pre-order!). I had the gnocchi, which had a great balance of truffle flavor, and I LOVED the chocolate soufflé, which was so good - hot, not too sweet, crispy on the outside, etc. The drinks are great - nice cocktail selection and huge wine list. I'm excited to come back for my next visit. read more

One of my favorite hidden gems in Waltham. There's an elegant, Tuscan feel inside. Coming here is definitely a special occasion. I've been a handful of times and the food never disappoint. The seafood risotto, fig martini, and chocolate soufflé are must haves! My only gripe is that the food is so rich and salty that more often than not leave here with a stomach ache. read more

Overall: Average to good. Not great, nowhere near bad, but overall good to average. Unfortunately Italian restaurants in the US usually completely screw up traditional Italian anyways. Ambience- Cute little place with a nice bar area (would have been my choice) and nice seating area that makes you feel like you're in someone's home or a Trattoria. Menu- Good overall Service- decent. I can't ding too much as there was a large table that was absorbing most of the waiters time. It felt like my table of 2 was an afterthought and they would get to us once the larger table (birthday I think) was taken care of..This "dance" played out the entire night. Drinks: Ordered two cocktails to start. The Port Old Fashioned and the Elderflower Spritz/champagne drink. Both good. Food- Good to average. Bread on arrival was decent. We got 2 meager olives each with the bread (weird?) Ordered two Insalata salads that were quite good- mushroom and a goat cheese salad. For the entree I ordered the short rib ravioli which was relatively flavorless and short on the meat. I've had this dish in many other restaurants in this one was a flop. Girlfriend ordered the mushroom gnocchi which was much better then mine. For desert I ordered the chocolate souffle and GF ordered the Apple tart. Both acceptable but nothing "wow. You have to order desert the same time as the entree which I also didn't like. Other: Neither of us ordered a coffee, because as I said our table of two seemed to be an afterthought between the larger party we probably wouldn't have gotten it or it would have been cold (my entree ravioli was barely warm...). I barely was able to order vino with my meal (had cocktails to start). My recommendation is for a table of two to go to the bar. I like the vibe better and the service /attentiveness is likely higher (I generally prefer the bar everywhere). Overall: Neither my guest nor I were wowed. Wasn't bad by any means, but not "wow" either. I generally don't eat Italian out since most restaurants around screw up what should be simple and flavorful dishes and opt for big price tags and overpriced wine. I generally go for things I can't cook at home. This was a birthday celebration so wanted to try. read more

Excellent food and drink. Service is superlative. Have your waiter recommend a wine. You won't be sorry. The ambiance is so warm and pleasant that you feel you have been transported to northern Italy in the middle of Waltham. The best place to go for a special occasion. It will be memorable. The wait staff are professionals in the best sense of the word. You will be glad you went. Call early if you want to reserve a table. read more

Here with a generous gift card to try out a Waltham gem. We were supposed to go before my GF moved out of Waltham but COVID had other plans. Got a resy on the patio before it gets cold and people are forced indoors again. The atmosphere is great, this place is a real gem, even the patio was wondefully done up. Service was great, wine was great. The food pretty solid. Apps I was sorta meh on - fried goat cheese on a salad of just greens. I love me some cheese but I feel like salads need more than greens. - Eggplant Terrine, the red sauce was amazing but there was something missing the mark with the eggplant itself. We split a duck confit & fig pizza and a lobster pasta. Both were really delicious, can you ever go wrong with lobster? Dessert was a peach blackberry tart like thing. Unclear what it actually was but it was delicious. Overall it was a solid meal and some yummy Italian food. Its on the pricey side and its not as inventive or exciting as some places. That being said maybe when you get Italian you aren't looking for inventive? read more

Came here for a special occasion, and while there are certainly many bright spots, I start to get more picky as the prices go up - I'm always down to pay for an amazing meal, but this one wasn't totally worth it. Beginning: started out with some bread and cocktails. Fun drinks and tasty bread - although cold. The olive oil was nicely seasoned and delicious. Unfortunately, we only got about two minutes to enjoy it, because the appetizer course came almost IMMEDIATELY after the bread. Need to work on some pacing. Apps: We got the spicy rock shrimp and the salad with goat cheese. The shrimp were overly oiled and seemed to be the cheaper "micro-shrimp" rather than full on shrimp. The dressing was tastier than mild but spicy was a bit of a stretch. The salad was really just dressed lettuce was fried goat cheese - don't me wrong, it's hard to go wrong with fried goat cheese, but there wasn't a ton here. Entrees: I got some bucatini with guanciale and my wife got the seafood risotto. These were both tasty, but the bucatini was a bit oily and the risotto hadn't quiet set. Dessert: the rhubarb crumble was delicious and certainly very well done. Service was very attentive the entire time and the ambiance is as charming as others described. An overall great meal, just not totally worth the price tag. Side note: it would also be nice if you could make reservations online rather than needing to call in during business hours. That gets annoying when they are only open evenings from Tuesday to Saturday. read more

The manager was so rude and awful to my friend. Not once have I met anyone this incompetent and rude to customers. I will not be going back and I will tell all of my friends and colleagues to avoid this restaurant. read more

Sorry to say everything was average: cocktails were nothing special, food was decent- flavor was just ok and entree was just warm. Dessert and wine were very good. Service was slow, but waitstaff pleasant. Based on other reviews, I expected better. Prices should reflect overall average rating. read more

It's a fine Italian restaurant. Best parts of the meal were the bread basket (which was served with an AMAZING olive oil), and the appetizers. I ordered pasta for the main course, and it was just fine--nothing wrong with it, but nothing really stood out about it. Perhaps a dish from "Secondi" would have been better. Our server was attentive and polite, he asked each person if they wanted an appetizer if they ordered a main dish but failed to order an appetizer. Perhaps this place is best enjoyed if you are prepared to order a full course meal, and it's best to go elsewhere if you just want a main dish. read more

My daughter was there with her boyfriend for her 21st birthday. The owner rudely embarrassed and humiliated her by announcing from over 8 feet away that her drivers license was expired and fake. In both cases he is wrong. It was valid until midnight on expiration date. She was in tears and he ruined her special night.This is poor judgement from an owner. Does he yell across the room when a credit card is declined. When we called him he was not sympathetic and tried to justify his actions. read more

Outstanding Italian restaurant, easily comparable to the best of the North End. Pricey but we'll worth it.

Nicely decorated inside with some great art pieces. Our waitress was ok but never checked how our meals were. My bf would have liked a side dish of vegetables but never got to ask for them. He got the sea bass which he really enjoyed. My chicken involitini was good but a little dry after several bites. A dish of gnocchi will run you $28 a bit steep. Portions are not huge which is fine with us but a little skimpy with veggies. The antipasto plate was good and again a bit skimpy. Desserts were not skimpy go figure. Chocolate mousse was enjoyed and the pear dessert. Owner is a bit cold and did not tell us to have a great night upon leaving as he was right by the entrance. Selective with the patrons as I observed him mingling with certain folks. Wouldn't hurt to check in with most tables. read more

This restaurant is a go-to for a romantic date or special occasion!! It's so cozy and rustic inside. We were actually seated by a lighted fireplace! This was for my birthday, so we went all out. I had the pear cocktail, which I highly recommend for anyone who enjoys sweeter cocktails. We had the prosciutto di parma for appetizer and it was amazing. I didn't expect to enjoy it so much, but all the elements together was a perfect combination and excellent salad. It was light, yet packed full of flavor from the prosciutto and cheese. For main courses, we had the lobster ravioli and veal ragu. Both were good. You could actually taste the lobster in the ravioli and they give you a whole tail on top. For dessert we had the chocolate soufflé, which was recommended by our waiter. It was ah-mah-ZING. My husband, who is not a big chocolate fan, ate half of it! The staff here are lovely and we had a very kind waiter--I think he's been there since the beginning because we saw several pictures of him on the walls. He gave us recommendations as we went along and also seemed to know some of the other guests at a different table. Friendly. They have a very small parking lot in the back of their restaurant, but you're really only going to park there if you are lucky or get there when they open (5pm). Make sure you call and make a reservation a week in advance because they fill up! read more

My first time here and had a great time. Very nice space and furnishings were spot on. Food and service were excellent. Great wine list and mixed drinks. Beef tenderloin, chicken and pasta were ordered and everything was fantastic. Had the pears for dessert and it was delicious. Great place and I highly recommend. read more

La Campania is our special place for meaningful celebrations.  We were introduced to La Campania about 15 years ago when it became the favorite dining spot for my husband's business colleagues.  Over the years, my family has celebrated retirements, birthdays and anniversaries.  We keep returning because of the outstanding food, Tuscan ambiance and most importantly, the service.   Angelo makes every visit and celebration extra special.  His service is impeccable.  It is evident that he loves his profession as he describes each course with details about the preparation and fine ingredients.  Most importantly, he takes a great interest in his diners.  By remembering names and favorite cocktail or entre as well as showing a sincere interest in each individual, he creates a warm, family- like atmosphere. Angelo makes La Campania a very special place. read more

Food is spectacular. Staff is top notch. Can't wait to go back. Thank you for a great night.

Outstanding meal at a cozy nondescript spot in Waltham. A little loud for dining al fresco, but the courtyard is cozy and beautiful. Food was exquisitely prepared and simple, no overpowering ingredients, just fresh, well prepared food. They are very adept at wine pairing and reasonable cost for any bottle price range. Would def recommend to anyone looking for an upscale, romantic, delicious dinner. read more

Despite having a delicious and satiating dinner, the service we just experienced was awful... From the moment we arrived we were rushed. We weren't asked what we wanted to start with, whether we wanted anything other than tap water to drink, how our food was, etc. We sat down at 7:15pm and were out of there by 7:50pm (at the latest). It was a terrible dinning experience, from a place that we thought would have wonderful service and a welcoming setting. Perhaps our waiter (who didn't tell us his name) was having a horrible day, but we wished someone else would have checked on us or made sure that things were ok - like the manager. The one person who was absolutely pleasant was the gentleman who cleared the dishes on our table. He was the only person the entire experience to ask how things were. Would have been nice to be offered coffee or something to drink with our dessert, but we were rushed out of there. Needless to say, we won't be visiting again. A huge disappointment. read more

My family brought me here for my birthday. We were a party of 5. We sat in a quaint dining room in the back of the restaurant that felt like a Tuscan farmhouse kitchen. We were greeted by Angelo who took care of us all night. Angelo passionately described many of the entrees prior to us placing our orders. We ordered a few appetizers (prosciutto di Parma was a particular stand out) . For entrees we had the duck, lamb, tenderloin, veal chop and swordfish. One dish was better than the next. Cannot wait to return this gem of a restaurant. read more

One of the best service experiences I've had in a long time. Our server was affable, knowledgeable, and great to interact with. Ambiance also excellent. Five stars to both of these. But. For the high price point our food was standard at best. Really underwhelming considering everything else. May come back to try more dishes but not entirely sold... read more

So disappointing. I reached out to the events team of the restaurant, better said a person called David, and inquired about a private party of 17 people. David was so nice to email me back just once, even though I sent him more than 5 emails with questions, saying that we made a reservation for dinner two weeks prior our event and would love to talk to him more about our party. Not a single word... not a single answer.. nothing. And after 10 days of waiting for his response... I guess it's time to move on. What a shame... PS: we went for dinner to take a closer look at the menu and try some of the dishes....and the only thing I can say is that the food was pretty good.. our server on another hand treated us like he was doing us a favor... not the best experience. Not at all. read more

We finally checked out La Campania. We were planning to eat there for a while, but we always end up skipping restaurants in the burbs and going to Boston or Cambridge. Anyway, we made it this past Saturday for dinner. I had somewhat high expectations of this place due to awesome reviews. Some would say the decor is very Tuscan-rustic, but to me it was cute but quite dated. Our table was in a very odd spot, almost in a hallway and it was annoying that everyone was walking next to us while we ate. Their wine list is pretty good. We ordered a bottle of Syrah. For appetizers we had the Pan Seared Foie Gras, I wasn't crazy about it. It was too oily for my taste and hard to cut. My grandma makes it much better. The tuna tartare was very good. Their focaccia with prosciutto and rosemary served with olive oil was very yummy. My date had Pork Milanese, it was a perfect entree and I had the Gnocchi with veal, I was kind of unimpressed. It was a good dish, the veal was a bit dry, but it didn't knock my socks off. The chocolate souffle was very good. The service was okay, but sometimes our waiter went missing just when we needed him, which was annoying. The restaurant is pricey and not really worth the money. I guess most of their clientele consists of older couples who keep going there for years. I don't think that's going to be us though. read more

A completely disappointing experience from start to end. I went with two friends. No one was at the hostess station at first and when the hostess came to the station, she did not greet us in any way. She seemed a bit confused about our reservation, but then seated us at the lower bar. About 10 minutes went by before a server greeted us and said she'd get us menus, but didn't get them. At least another 5 minutes went by. My friend asked if we could have menus and we were told they were coming and they were busy. Another 5 minutes went by and we finally got menus. Again we were told they were busy. We waited a bit longer and then we ordered drinks and food. We waited a good 15 minutes for the drinks. When they came, mine was OK, but my friend's drink was obviously made earlier and sat there because the ice was melted and both friends' drinks were sweating. Two of us ordered salads. They took a long time, but they were good. One friend asked to send her drink with the melted ice back and get a glass of wine instead. There was no apology or acknowledgement. The took the drink back to the bar and then brought it back over to where we were sitting and put it on the ledge right across from us. My friend was turned towards me and the server set down the wine behind her and didn't say anything at all. Our meals took a really long time. Someone that looked like a manager passed by and we asked about the dinners and we really weren't having a good experience. We didn't get water refills and our drinks had been finished for some time, and weren't asked if we wanted another drink. It was if we had no server at all. He said he'd check, they were busy, and was kind of blasé about it. We kept hearing how busy they were, but people weren't coming and going and most of the seats around us were empty. The manager did pour us all a glass of wine, which was a nice gesture, but we were really looking for a nice night out, not a free glass of wine. We waited awhile longer, got our food, and no one ever came to ask how it was. One friend liked hers, my was pretty bland, and my other friend who already had said hers was awful and couldn't even eat it. Even if someone came over and she said she didn't like it, she had already sent back her drink and they probably would have thought she's one of those people who complain about everything, even though she's not. Someone came by and cleared our plates and it was obvious she didn't eat any of it and there was an issue. We paid our bills. My friend with the bad food didn't leave a tip and left a note. I left a tip, not as much as I normally would and left a note. We wanted to make sure it was clear the service was terrible and that was why. I really regret spending my money and my time there.The three of us go out to dinner locally about once a week and have several places we always enjoy. We were looking forward to adding this restaurant in our list, but won't consider going again. read more

The place was packed on a Wednesday nite and we managed to snag a reservation for 5. Fantastic Italian in a nice upscale setting but not snobby. We felt welcomed and the service was warm and prompt. The servers were always around but I never once felt they were over my shoulders.. Party of 5 with big appetites orders appetizer from soft shell crab to prosciutto. I had the proscuitto and it was smoky, sweet, salty.. like bacon but more savory.. I asked for the duck.. prepared like confit du canard and it was done perfectly. Medium rare with a slick crisp on the skin.. paired perfectly with the super tuscan. Food was great, prices a bit high, but overall , a worth while Italian dinner. read more

continuing with my review of waltham's quad Italian eats.... La C for my money was better then II C, so use that for reference. I went with the wifey for my Bday a few years ago. I did like the decor better the II C and the menu had a lot more going it. what i recall about this place is that i got the fish and it came out full of bones, i thought it would have been a fillet and easy to eat. not so much and I sent it back because it wasn't listed on the menu as bone in, it actually sounded like a fillet, so they gave me a second plate, which was also tasty. it was a hair cheaper then II C and I felt like it was more worth it in the long run. again, no rush to go back, but if needed i would. read more

The best restaurant I know in Waltham. I still remember one of my celebrations there and it's been years! The food is exceptionally tasty, the ambient is exceptionally beautiful and puts you immediately into an elevated, relaxed, and enjoying mood. I also liked the open kitchen cooking with sporadic fire bursts rising in the air, just for entertainment. Finally, despite this place generally being in the upper price range, it actually wasn't too expensive when we didn't order any drinks besides water. read more

We had an amazing meal here and the service was extraordinary. From the roasted beet salads, to campagnelli with lobster, risotto with scallops, pan seared halibut and grilled rib eye, topped off with chocolate soufflé and coffee. It was seriously just great, and from this tough reviewer, that is a serious statement. This will be on the definite to return list. Plus, the beers are only $5, and top shelf whiskeys only around $10! read more

Absolutely delicious meal. My colleague and I wanted tot try all of the antipasto dishes, so we ordered two salads (warm mushroom and the three artichokes), mushroom soup, pancetta, and scallops. Everything was delicious, but the scallops came with a cauliflower goat cheese purée that was absolutely hands down the best part of our entire meal. Order the scallops. You won't be disappointed! Atmosphere and service was also excellent. Cost is high, but I think the food was creative enough to be worth it for a special occasion dinner. read more

One of the best italian restaurant options in the Boston area. A rustic but elegant country home setting with several small dining rooms. The service, ambience and food are all excellent. They are low tech with their reservations. No OpenTable option here, you need to call the old fashioned way. La Campania is known for their appetizer thin crust pizzas. The duck and fig pizza is awesome. read more

First of all you have to give credit to good eating in the burbs. This is non red sauce Italian restaurant. You can pretty easily get free street parking so that is already a great start. Then you walk in and the decor is excellent. We had Angelo as our waiter (he has been working there 19 year) and he was terrific and entertaining. We had 6 people and sat in the wine room which was private and quiet. Bread was homemade and incredibly soft. Angelo seem to take pride in helping us with our ordering. He planned our appetizers and presented them well for each person (We did not mind but If you are price concerned then make sure you tell him how many orders you want of each dish). The top appetizer items we had were... Prosciutto di Parma- excellent Prosciutto wrapped around asparagus with micro greens. Not something I would have ordered but I would get this as my top item next time. Baked Oysters- oysters warm with cheese were excellent Gnocchi- we shared this as an appetizer and it was also excellent. Lots of mushrooms. Entrees was excellent also. I would say that the Veal, Bronzino and the Lamb Rack were the top items at the table. The portion sizes were good size and prepared very well but not over seasoned since the meat was high quality. I would probably have the Bronzino next time but I really enjoyed the Veal. No question that you need to have the chocolate souffle and it delivered. We had 2 of them and they were gone in 30 seconds. Overall a really good experience and I would like to eat outside next time when it gets warm out. read more

I had a Fig Martini, Mushroom Soup, and Salt Encrusted Branzino (served whole) with Teeny Green and French Pear Salad, and Whole Roasted Garlic. This was a truly delightful meal. The Fig Martini is a stunning cocktail embracing two scrumptious Gorgonzola Stuffed Olives. The Fig Martini created a soothingly silky velvet taste around my tongue fully titillating my palate for what was to be a euphoric meal. The steaming deep bowl of Mushroom Soup arrived topped with Garlic Croutons and Parmigiano. My dinner partner remarked how beautiful the Mushroom Soup looked. I concurred. For a cold winter evening dinner, the Mushroom Soup was an enchantingly rustic potage, steaming, thick, and flavorful. If I had been at home and not in a public restaurant, I would have licked the bowl. The delicious soup alone was a conversation piece, but the entrée arrived and stole the show: a Wood Oven Roasted Salt Encrusted Branzino Served Whole served with a Whole Roasted Garlic and Teeny Green and French Pear Salad. There are existential reasons why whole-fish consumption should be de rigueur. The whole fish invokes cultural heritage, bringing us back to the fresh bounty of the sea. You sense the fish has just been caught by the fisherman, and with minimal supply chain processing, arrives into the arms of the Chef. In fact, upon the arrival of the Branzino at our table, my dinner partner and I discussed going fishing. This impressive fish filled the plate. I am a lover of crisp roasted fish skin, and this fish had been roasted to perfection. In fact, I admired the roast on the fish so much that my dinner partner teased me and said that I might as well give the fish a name. I said that is ridiculous, but yes, I did secretly name my Branzino "Trevor". When I cut into to Trevor, he willingly surrendered his entire spine in one piece which I lifted out with my knife and fork, and was left with an entire plate full of succulent, fresh, light flaky fish. While eating him, I made sure that Trevor's eyes were trained on my dinner partner. Congratulations to the Chef. This was a world class meal, and I was quite, quite impressed. read more

This restaurant is a go-to for a romantic date This restaurant is a go-to for a special occasion! This restaurant is a go-to for an Italian meal. This is not a hang out restaurant/bar. It's so cozy and rustic . I like their lobster ravioli. Good service, They have a very small parking lot so can be an issue. I recommend reservations on weekends. read more

We had an amazing time having our date night here. The ambience is really beautiful. We were impressed by the cocktails. The figs were so deliciously ripe and sweet. Our waiter provided fantastic service, I believe his name was Tim. Highly recommend the fig and prosciutto, duck, and the hot chocolate soufflé. read more

Went here with our sister in law who lives nearby. She raved about the food from prior experience . The hostess was very welcoming and decor was rustic Italian and lovely . It went downhill fast. We had a late reservation after visiting a very sick friend whose wife cooked us a delicious lunch so we ordered light. Bread and olive oil were very good so we had high expectations Shared flatbread pizza with shrimp , arugula which was very good . Husband had the pasta special which was nothing like the description and tasted far worse. More like a manicotti in a watery , flavorless broth and pasta was not cooked. It was far from Al dente. Tasted raw on ends with flavorless filling .it made no sense ...do I ask for a spoon? Where was the sauce.? What was this a mix of flour and water ? And you highlighted fava beans . Where were they ? Seriously 4 tiny beans? We shared the large morel pasta. Flavor was good , size for $36.00 was very small. Now for our waiter . He apparently has been there for many years. No apology for the long wait to bring us barely cooked pasta , no grated cheese offered and no apology when we told him, and only because he asked that my husbands manicotti was severely undercooked. He said he would tell the chef but for what if you don't intend to do something about it? If you don't care, don't ask and avoid the awkwardness . But the worst part was his attitude from the beginning . I thought it was my imagination but my sister in law agreed he seemed put off that we ordered light and didn't order liquor . He gave us an annoyed glare and asked several times if we wanted wine or drinks , each time we had to repeat " no Thankyou " we actually felt guilty and certainly not wanted. Did he ever think that maybe we just don't drink or that someone has a health issue or perhaps it was late and we were tired ? Don't push us to order liquor after we say no the first time and don't act annoyed that your tip will be less because we are ordering light . By the way , no offer to compensate for the raw pasta dish, not even a cookie. You are an expensive Italian restaurant you should at least cook pasta correctly, especially when it costs $36,00 ! My husband said it was the worst dish he ever ordered and the rudest waiter . So unpleasant. read more
