    Caesar salad
    Jenelle B.

    Super friendly staff! Lovely white tablecloth atmosphere. And delicious food! The white wine mussels were a great starter. The broth was so good we soaked it up with the bread! The daily special beet salad featured goat cheese, candied pecans and large pickled beets. So good! My grilled salmon was a large portion and had a wonderful caper sauce. My dining partner chose the pasta special which featured lobster and shrimp. Yum!

    This was my first visit to Roberto's. I decided to go there to celebrate my birthday. GREAT food and service. I loved the decor of the restaurant as well, along with all the Christmas decorations. The staff, including the owner, was on top of everything during my visit.

    We had a wonderful dinner at Roberto's this weekend! The ambiance was very relaxed & friendly. All of the food came out quickly and was so fresh! Some of the very best toasted ravioli, rigatoni alla vodka with generous portions of lobster, and my favorite gooey butter cake for dessert!

    Lobster Pasta
    Chaz L.

    Let me first say that the food here at Roberto's is so good! This might be the best Creme Brulee I've ever had. The pasta has big pieces of lobster. The appetizers were also great. Service was just ok unfortunately, we waited for a while before anyone showed up to take our order apparently the shifts changed or something. Server was fine and attentive. The ambiance was about a 5 but could be moved to a 10 if they replaced the white lights with warmer yellow. The lighting is the worst feature. Feels like being in a factory or office or something. Ultimately the food is so good it overcomes everything else.

    Chicken Spedini
    Michelle L.

    Upscale restaurant located in south county offering absolutely fantastic food and exceptional service. White linen tables and white shirted servers set the start to a wonderful dining experience. They have a varied menu and a full bar is available also. The salad was cold , crisp and served with a tasty dressing.and the bread was warm and delicious Chicken Parmesan was spot on , chicken lightly breaded with a sweet tomato based sauce and cheese, chicken Spedini was some of the best I've eaten . If you're looking for a nicer place for dinner or a special occasion this is definitely the spot.

    Roberto's is one of those restaurants that has a loyal following. The reason is simple, the food is great and the portions are huge. I definitely recommend their Summer Salad as a starter. The scallops in the special were large and delicious. Our waitress Shannon was delightful and provided excellent service from start to finish. The owner, Matt, was very helpful with my elderly father-in-law. That personal touch is what makes Roberto's special.

    All so can say is you need to come and experience this lamb dish yourself! It's the chefs specialty..

    matt did a fantastic job with the new makeover. Food was absolutely stellar. Service was excellent. I would definitely recommend this to all of my friends.

    Chicken Spedini with Tomato Basil Pasta

    Great experience at Roberto's! We visited for the first time for a birthday dinner on a Tuesday night and it wasn't super busy, which was great for us as a table of 6! The bread was delicious. One of us got the Greek salad which was great too. For mains, we got: - Filet Mignon with Peppercorn *this was slightly too chewy, cooked well but the cut of meat was so large that it made it chewy. - Chicken Parmigana *HUGE portion and very delicious! Perfect ratio of breading to chicken -Chicken Speidini *Not a huge fan of mushrooms so I did not get the mushroom topping, but it was delicious without. Great portion with a huge side of pasta. -Veal Saltimbocca *haven't had this in a bit and it was delicious! Perfectly done. Desserts: - Raspberry Cheesecake *delicious! Wish there was a little more raspberry flavor but I loved the cookie crust - Tiramisu * tiramisu was good, not the best I've had but quality - Gelato * gelato was ok!

    Andrea S.

    Beautiful restaurant and good service. Pasta was delicious so was the salmon. Easy parking right outside.

    Chicken Spedini w/ White Sauce

    The chicken spedini was the best I've ever had. Stuffed and not too over powering. Amazing toasted raviolis. We were seated immediately without having a reservation. Server was attentive and quick. Food wrapped up for us. Will absolutely be coming back here!!

We arrived right when they opened at 4 pm and were seated right away on the patio. Was it strange to be some of the first guests to arrive? Yes. But it was also nice to have the full attention of our server who was great! He told us all about the specials and talked us through some of the drinks that he enjoys. Since I shared that I was not currently drinking alcohol, he made a few mocktail recommendations and I loved how he was able to "sell" them to me. I went with a class G&T mocktail and my friend went with a mezcal drink based on his recommendations. We also ordered 2 of the apps to just have at the table while we chatted. The mocktail I had really did hit the spot and my friend really enjoyed her cocktail as well. The hummus we ordered witht he veggies was so good and we also had a potato app that was truly such a unique flavor with creme fraiche and walnuts. Honestly, it was so good I want to go back and order it again! I really enjoyed this HH and know that I need to visit again for the actual dinner menu one day.

Nice work to the team at this hip place!

It was already getting late so we were worried we wouldn't find one in time, when this spot popped up! Their Happy Hour goes until 6:30!! I was a little nervous for parking in this area, but it's far enough down that we had no issues. We walked in and luckily, two people were packing up at the bar, so we snagged their spots. Happy Hour is limited to the bar area only. I have no idea why I haven't heard more about this spot, and I'm honestly surprised it's not hyped up more! They use a lot of local, fresh vendors for their ingredients, and the spot is very clean and welcoming. The bartender was great all night, he gave top notch service. The food menu looks phenomenal, and they have have a lot of great options on the Happy Hour menu itself. I just got a couple glasses of house wine for a great price and my husband got a couple beers, which even the NICE ones were only $5. Their cocktails looked bomb too, we'll have to come back and try some. The beef tacos had REALLY great flavor, the fries were ginormous, crispy and cooked to perfection, and even the whipped feta was tasty. The bread they served it with was bomb. Such a cool spot, great prices, and super high quality. We will definitely be back.

We all arrived fairly close together, so we just started filling in seats as we arrived. The had us at the back of the restaurant at a banquet seat with tables and additional seats on the outside. It was a little tight, but we worked it out. The hostess was nice when welcoming us in and getting us going. Our server was Tera, she had our large group plus other tables, so she was doing her best to coordinate. We shared menu's, they had regular menus and special menus for Valentines Day. Tara was great with keeping track of the couples when ordering. I ordered the Butcher Board as an appetizer to share with others. Everyone really enjoyed it, especially the toasted bread. The salami, sausage and Braunschweiger. There was a buffalo chicken terrine that was different but good. Grain mustard aioli and house made pickles rounded out the board. I also ordered a cherry margarita as my first of two drinks. The second one was a Hugo Spritz. Both were ok, not great. I ordered the Tenderloin from the Valentine menu. It came with fingerling potatoes and green beans with a sauce. It was delicious! The beef so tender and flavorful. The meal was superb. To go packaging was great and came in a brown bag with handles that makes it easy to carry. We had a great time, great food and service.

Single Cut Prime Rib 16oz $66 - It was cooked perfectly medium rare and very tender. I didn't love that it sat in a pool of au jus, but was delicious. Brussels sprouts $15 - Large portion, more than plenty for 4 people. It was tender and very saucy. Garlic Mashed potatoes $16 - Semi-lumpy mashed potato with bits of skin. I was hoping it might be served with gravy similar to the shrimp sauce, but there was no companion. Cheesecake with blueberry sauce $16 - Large piece of cheesecake, very rich and smooth. It was nice that the dessert selected by the birthday guest was complimentary. If you dine here and park in the lot behind 801 Fish, you can get your parking ticket validated at 801 Fish.

They also gave us a list of their favorite menu items. That was the sign that it was time for us to go! We were lucky and found a great parking spot. It was a nice night and a lot of people were in the area. We were greeted warmly by a few people at the hostess stand. Our table was almost ready - literally maybe a two minute wait - and then we were seated. It's not a huge space, but they make the most of it. The place was full! Our server was Josh and he was great! There were a number of people that came to our table throughout our two hours there. Drink delivery, food delivery, Amanda (one of our very favorite servers we met at another restaurant), water pourer, table cleaner, etc - lots of staff taking care of everyone. We dropped utensils a few times and someone on staff was there replacing it before we even picked it up off the floor. We're not THAT clumsy - the tables for two aren't large and it was easy to hit a utensil unknowingly! It's a little loud in there due to the size of the space and the number of people they can seat. It wasn't annoyingly loud, but louder than some places. We ordered our cocktails and then started trying to decide what to order. Josh went over the menu with us, told us about some of the items in more detail, and told us about the specials. He was super knowledgeable about the entire menu. He also had a fun personality. Focaccia and olive oil were brought to our table. It was literally the only thing I didn't like there. I love focaccia, but it was served almost cold. I prefer it warm. And this wasn't room temp - it was very cool. We started with Prosciutto di Parma. Because peaches are in season, it came with fresh sliced peaches and it was delicious! Without the peaches, I think the prosciutto would have been too salty for me, but I'm salt sensitive. I had the Roman Gnocco and it was very good! I brought half of it home. My husband got the Sweet Corn Ravioli. It was a special and it was delicious. It was the perfect summer entree! We had an ice cream sandwich for dessert and wow! It's absolutely not like one you've had before. I was already full, but I made some room! In addition to the food and cocktails being so good, the staff were fabulous! They didn't miss a trick. Someone always noticed everything! And the food they took from me to box up was kept somewhere else until we were ready to go. It was brought with the bill. It was labeled with our table number and what the contents were. Was it a big deal? No. Was it very thoughtful? Yes. We didn't have a box sitting there while we enjoyed dessert and finished our cocktails. My only regret is that we had not been there before. The food and service are both top notch. We will most definitely be back!

The restaurant has lower ceilings, smaller dining room tables and chairs and was very cozy. Not cramped but cozy. The menu was All steakhouse - straight forward - nothing fancy. The prices were not stuck in the 70's though - they kept up with the times. We enjoyed cocktails before, and an appetizer of house made onion rings which were outstanding. several had salads - the house and caesar were both great as was the traditional Greek was exceptional. The steaks were Prime and we had our choice of either healthy 8oz+ filets or 12 /16oz NY Strip Steaks. Also some had the 8 oz Cold water Lobster tails. My16oz NY Strip ordered Medium Rare was cooked perfectly as was every other steak at the table. Those who ordered lobster got them deep fried which personally i think is a waste - but to each there own - it was good as well. The cream spinach was very tasty. If there was one wish - i would have liked a bit of seasoning on the steaks - this was teh consensus of the table. the beef was good - but could have used some sort of seasoning - even some S & P.

After a whole lot of research, knowing I wanted scallops for a main, I chose The Crossing. Our meal started with a complimentary offering of their bleu cheese soufflé with crisps and bread service--both delicious. I enjoyed a glass of their current "by the glass" Chardonnay, and my boyfriend got a Yeungling (poured table-side). I got my scallops, as planned, which certainly did not disappoint. Cooked perfectly, fresh and delicious. The wilted romaine seemed odd at first but totally rounded out the potato mash at the base, with the absolute flavor-bomb of the shiitakes. Highly recommend this dish any day! My boyfriend opted for the NY Strip; we both agreed it was one of the best steaks we'd ever had; seasoned perfectly and cooked masterfully. There was a slight mishap whereby a food runner gave him a tasting portion of the strip (likely meant for another table); we first didn't realize and were very disappointed with the size. However, without a word from us, the chef came out and personally explained, apologized, and corrected--I didn't snap a photo of the full portion when it came out, but it was perfect and much more what we expected. That brings me to the service, which was spectacular. Several staff members gave us a personal touch and they all seemed to be genuinely happy to be there. The space is beautiful and intimate. It was moderately busy and still quiet. The atmosphere feels upscale, but not pretentious or unapproachable. This place was on my radar for a long time, and I sure wish I'd gone long ago. If you're thinking about it, just go!! I can't wait to come back and try the chefs tasting menu--thank you for a wonderful dinner!

We started with the Korean fried cauliflower and it was honestly some of the best I've ever had. The batter was light, fluffy, and crispy, and the gochujang sauce with the mayo was sweet and sticky in the best way. Since it's a butchery, we had to try the steaks. I ordered the 4oz filet Oscar style. The meat was tender and very well seasoned, the crab was fresh, and the homemade hollandaise really pulled it all together. My husband had the ribeye. It was a flavorful cut, a little fatty (as ribeye tends to be), but exactly what you'd expect from that cut. The steaks come with a twice-baked potato and vegetable (or you can swap for different vegetables). The potato was flavorful but fairly dense. We also did the bread service - it was good, but felt a bit pricey for the portion. We ended with the flourless chocolate torte, which was very rich and the perfect way to finish the meal - especially on Valentine's Day. Overall, the food was good and the menu is solid. The quality was there, but the portions, bread service and sides didn't fully meet expectations. That said, it was still a lovely experience and a great date-night spot.
