From start to finish our first experience at Tramonti was absolutely fantastic! The staff was…read moreattentive, polite and very helpful. We went there on 5/26/26 for my 43rd birthday, my husband surprised me with reservations for our family of 3 as we had been wanting to try Tramonti for a few months after hearing rave reviews from our friends and family! The restaurant is very comfortable with lots of seating options including indoor tables, a seasonal outdoor eating area and covered patio. We were quickly seated by our server in the patio section and got our drinks in record time. The menu is vast with a plethora of choices that all look positively appealing to those of us who enjoy Italian fare. They also have a very wide array of "adult beverages" in their wine list/drink menu as well as a great selection on their dessert menu. We ordered the Antipasto and we all throughly enjoyed it! Then, we were gifted with a complementary order of some delicious mussels. I ordered the Veal Marsala, my husband ordered the Veal Parmigana and our son got the Shrimp Scampi. While initially I thought those who had recommended Tramonti to us were being overly "dramatic" about the portion sizes...they surely were not! Definitely plan to come hungry and leave full with LOTS of leftovers to enjoy! Our food arrived to the table very quickly, everything was cooked perfectly and you could feel the attention to detail in every single bite of your meal. Toward the end of our meal, the chef came out to introduce himself and wished me a Happy Birthday. While I know it sounds silly...it felt like you were eating dinner at a family members or friend's home. Your glass is never allowed to go empty of your drink of choice, the servers check in on you to see if you need anything and just make sure you're enjoying your meal...it's a very comfortable place to have a nice dinner! Since our dinner last night I haven't been able to stop raving about Tramonti to everyone! We already have made plans to return in a few weeks with our good friends and fellow foodies from Portugal!!! To the Staff of Tramonti: Grazie di Tutto. See you again very soon for another wonderful meal!

I apologize as I've lived in town for two years. Tonight was my first experience. To be fair, I had…read morea last minute (small/easy) catering need: 1/2 tray of penne vodka, 1/2 tray garden salad, and an impulse buy of a loaf of terrific bread at check out. I was embarrassed to call with 4hrs notice. They didn't flinch. Easy. Made me feel really good about my decision. The pasta was cooked perfectly and they did everything right. I'd give the vodka sauce 7/10 in the area. Salad was fresh. Terrific toppings (not just lettuce) and the dressings were good quality. My experience today makes me really look forward to my first dine-in experience. Really good people. Great service. I can see why folks love this place. I'll add to this review after my first actual visit. It will be soon.

The whole experience was perfection! We had a wide variety of delicious entrees to select from their party menu. The staff took individual orders and when they served the main courses, they didn't ask who ordered each item because they knew who ordered each item. They were very professional. On the day before, a problem was identified with the wall mounted TV in the room so the staff replaced the TV with another wall mounted TV! As a result, we were all able to view our custom birthday video during the party. Thank you, Carlitos, for a great experience we will all remember.

Bartender poured me a 'hard cider' that tasted like dark beer; wife's martini was basically olive brine. Had to nudge for grated cheese and hot pepper flakes in my pasta fazool--they never showed.

Cappuccino and dessert saved the evening, but barely. Three stars--food shines, everything else drags.

My wife and I have been coming to this excellent establishment for years and it is one of our…read moreall-time favorites. Last night for Valentine's Day, we totally enjoyed Italian cuisine at its best! We started with the delicious shrimp chowder which had an abundance of tender shrimp cooked to perfection in a delightful cream sauce. But that was only the beginning! My wife ordered the eggplant over pasta which was outstanding and made the way my Sicilian grandmother would have made it! Next up, I ordered the bone-in Veal Choppette with mozzarella over a bed of pasta which totally lived up to - and exceeded my expectations. Thought I died and went to veal heaven. The chop was abundant and tender - it was absolute Perfection on a plate! We finished off these culinary delights with cappuccino with a side of Sambucca Romana and Tia Maria plus a serving of crème brûlée cheesecake to end the evening. Tony and Joanne D'Amelio as well as the entire staff always make us feel comfortable and welcome and know how to treat their guests. If I could give Verdi 10 stars I would! If you're looking for a first-class restaurant serving outstanding fare, look no further than Verdi!

I'm sorry that I don't have my passport and own scanner to prove my age, the workers and owner at this restaurant are incompetent and I will not be going back.

We waited at a random table because there were no seats at the bar. After 20 minutes they took us down to the basement where we sat alone. They said they didn't expect to be that busy that night but it was a random Friday night, but it seemed like they just overbooked and didn't really care about us. If it wasn't a pain to find parking and absolutely pouring, I probably would have left, the vibes were weird. Our waitress was really nice as was the busboy/food runner and made some good recommendations on the menu. Everything we had was decent enough, but not mind-blowing. I'd come back but not clamoring to come back right away.

The staff was amazing, accommodating a few special requests for some of our guests, the delivery was literally exactly at the time they told me on the phone. Most importantly, the pizza was simply fantastic. I literally wonder why or how other NY Style places do any business in the area. We got three of our favorites: Large Meatball, Large Sausage and Mushroom, and a Large 757. The best. I regretted not ordering my all time favorite from there, the Sicilian, but it's huge as a whole pie and my guests wanted to try these varieties. Next time. I love everything about this place.
