    Had a wonderful Valentine’s day experience. Sampled some great wine. Chef was engaging, welcoming and fun. Learned how to make our very own pizza and got to eat it too. Servers, bartenders, manager were all VERY friendly, warm, welcoming and hospitality was priority to them. Food tasted delicious! Would highly recommend trying out their experiences as a date night or simply night out with friends.

    My experience at Oretta was exceptional. From the food to the service it could not have been better. We went there to celebrate a birthday and they went above and beyond what we were ever expecting. We were able to bring in our own cake and they even refrigerated it and served it to us with candles on it. Our server was incredible; she was so helpful and kind the entire time. Could not recommend this place enough for a special occasion or even just to enjoy a dinner out!
