    I enjoy this restaurant, however, the noise level is hard to handle...I chose a high top table in the bar, usually quieter...it was very difficult to have a conversation....My usual "go to" pasta was good, but not great....it is usually great!!

    The food was delicious and the service was great! We were a party of 8 and Everyone ordered something different. Not one dish was disappointing. Chianti Cucina has great food at a reasonable price. Would definitely go again and recommend!

    Julie was a perfect waitress, lovely food, and wine, and dessert. The best dish tonight was the special tomato & lobster bisque soup.

    Chianti Cucina never disappoints. Our Valentine's Day dinner was delicious, well prepared, served in a timely manner and the service was great. Although they were very busy due to the holiday, we did not feel rushed and the dining experience was so pleasant.

    Our first time. They were willing to adjust ingredients, even offering off-the-menu dishes to meet dietary requests. All the food was wonderful (sourdough pizza was especially good); as was the wait staff. A neighborhood gem. We will be back.

    The waitress didn’t say a word about it being an issue if we split the bill with multiple cards, but after waiting and waiting to sign and leave, she explained that she accidentally charged my card multiple times and blamed it on us for giving her multiple cards. I’m just hoping the charges come off!

    Our server, Anna, was outstanding, helping us with decisions & making it easy for everyone to enjoy & share some of the best pizzas we’ve had. This will be our go to pizza place from now on! Best ceasar salad too, crisp, fresh with just the right amount of dressing. Felt like family & we all want to go back soon to try some of the other menu items!

    always enjoy this restaurant. Food is always good and excellent service. My only complaint is the noise level . It is hard to hear people talking at your table.
