    I had an excellent experience at Spaghettini. Our server, Natalie, was efficient and had such a wonderful personality. We were also welcomed by Patrick, another team member, who made sure all was well. The food was delicious as usual especially the short ribs. The cocktails are tasty as well. My fave is the Perfectly Pear. Another must try is the butter cake. Reservations are best.

    Valentine's Day dinner was wonderful. Great ambiance, beautiful sunset view over the marina. Our server Delia was very sweet and attentive. The food was delicious as usual. My wife has severe food allergies, however they take this very seriously and the chef always does an outstanding job of preparing her order correctly. This is our "go to" spot for special occasions. Highly recommended.
