Courtney was our server; she was excellent & made sure we had what we needed, as well as willing to take a photo of us. I will say... the aioli they use for the tuna crudo was AWESOME - it also pairs great with the chicken marsala. I asked for a 'house margarita' which they were able to accommodate. I noticed that the bar area was slightly more busy. Mind you, it was a Wed. evening in late Sept. I cannot wait to go back to order a few apps, paired with nice red wine. Elegant & romantic place considering the location. The dim lighting is a nice touch.

My wife ordered from DoorDash for pickup last Friday (02/20), unaware that the restaurant was…read morerecently closed for renovations. DoorDash refuses to refund her, as they said they restaurant accepted the order and confirmed everything on their end. We've tried calling and emailing multiple times to rectify this issue, and there's been no response from Diomede's. Diomede's needs to TURN OFF online ordering ASAP, as everything was processed for our order according to DoorDash, so they will not refund us. They also didn't even believe my wife when she informed them the restaurant is closed, and that I had driven there trying to pickup the food that DoorDash said was 'ready for pickup,' according to the restaurant. Will be happy to delete this review if this gets rectified and resolved, but as of right now we're out $60 and nobody seems to want to fix this issue.

I called the restaurant asked to speak to the manger, I told her the pizza should have never left the restaurant and I wanted a refund. She said I would have to get my refund from DoorDash.

When I arrived I dropped the box on the counter and expressed my frustration that I had paid for celery but had to come all the way back to the restaurant.

She was professional, kind and friendly. She made us feel very welcomed. We hope to get her again on our next visit. I loved the bruschetta and the homemade noodles were perfectly made. I loved the ambiance as well as the Italian songs in the background. It's a nice place to have at least a few appetizers. We loved their bread which comes with your meal. The prices are a bit high but the quality is there. The portions are hearty enough for most people to take home some leftovers. The chef is solid and so was the waitress. We will come again.

Gusto Caffe in Meredith is the closest I've come to being back there. From the moment you walk in, you're welcomed like family. The warmth isn't just service -- it's genuine.

Raul makes the best cappuccino, and Elena greets you with the most beautiful smile. It's not just a café -- it's an experience that brings you straight back to Italy.

Excellent! so when we had an appointment in Laconia I was looking forward to the rich full bodied Americano decaf we always get. I added a bit of half n half and tasted. Found them to be luke warm, and also weak as dish water. I think the cool temp of the brewing water prevented the coffee beans from giving up their flavor. I brought back to the counter where the barista warmed them w the frother. btw, no apology. I thought I could drink it but it was awful. So I asked for a splash of regular coffee to be added thinking that might fix the weak flavor. She told me she'd have to charge me for a small coffee. Really? Didn't I already spend almost $5 on this bad coffee? So, that was it, I declined the additional cost and left it on the table. My husband brought his home where he promptly threw it away.

Always comfortable! The food: Let me start by saying, I am SUPER picky about Alfredo because I firmly believe no one can make it better than me. This Alfredo is very close in flavor BUT my pizza was dry and I wanted some for dipping on the side. I would have had to order a batch of Alfredo bc they make it to order...that's great and all, until you are in my situation and need some on the side. I was bummed. The sirloin was delicious and perfectly cooked but the green beans were hard and raw. I like them at least a-little soft and warm. The fettuccine Alfredo and the trio were absolutely delicious! I do highly recommend checking this place out. We will be back!

We started with the brussel sprouts which were broiled perfectly and drizzled with a balsamic and Parmesan. I had a salted caramel espresso martini that was amazing and my husbands jack and diet was strong so he sipped all night. Dinner is served with fresh bread and an oil/balsamic dipping bowl. Fresh bread is always a nice touch, especially in a cold night. Our entrees were both a fettuccine, mine was lobster tail with shrimp and chicken, and my husband was a traditional Alfredo. Pasta was perfect, the lobster was fishy but good with the sauce. For dessert, they were out of the chocolate torte but the creme brulee cheesecake and chocolate mousse cake were delicious. It was busy but we were able to enjoy our meal, lots of conversation but a great place to go with a group or a date night

There were 2 other couples when we got there. I ordered the Red Sangria that was 1/2 wine 1/2 orange juice. Not to my liking. Exchanged for a glass of moscato. He had the spicy margarita served in a short glass. which he said was ok. The wine was a little flat. Drinks were $15 each. Dinner i got the seafood special that said shrimp, scallops, lobster tail, and mussels over linguine with a pink sauce. He got the cannelloni one beef and one spinach. My entree had no price listed on the specials menu. I have never let price deter me snd I Was shocked to see it was $60. We eat out a lot but that was in no way a $60 dish. The portions were small. Seafood quality was mediocre. And the lobster tails were rock lobster. Which is a coarser meat and not as flavorful as Maine lobster. Which was misleading on the description. Overall one and done for us. In my opinion its too expensive for what they are serving.

The restaurant is clean, tastefully decorated, and genuinely welcoming. The staff are well‑mannered, attentive, and congenial. Two critical reasons we continue to dine at Cornicello are Josh, the chef, and Sophia, the bartender. Josh is truly a master of his craft, and Sophia brings warmth and skill to every interaction at the bar. Together, they elevate the entire dining experience. It's the rare kind of place where skill, warmth, and atmosphere come together to create a meal you genuinely look forward to. Advanced reservations are strongly encouraged.
