What a view on this clear night! Service, from valet, hostess, coat room, food runner, waiter, table clearer between courses all were friendly, knew the answers about menu and were all professional, warm and friendly. I cannot say enough about the menu, our salads and entree followed by shared dessert were plated beautifully, seasoned to perfection, and a delicious blend of flavors. I definitely recommend this restaurant for a diverse menu that would satisfy all in your party.

LuNello's never disappoints me. Whenever I bring a new guest to the restaurant, they always compliment the menu and their choice. The real testament to someone's pleasure with their dining experience is when they take some of their choices home with them to enjoy. Thank you to the team at LuNello's for making each visit an enjoyable one.
