    This was our first time at Disotto, and the weekend brunch was outstanding. The waitstaff were very attentive (but not overly so), and the food was hot and delicious. I would not hesitate to recommend to friends for a lovely anytime meal or special occasion.

    We were a party of 7 — our server did a fantastic job of dealing with a large group. The food was wonderful and we were happily surprised with the 50 percent discount on bottles of wine on Tuesdays. We’re looking forward to our next get together here!

    This was our first time to dine at Del Rio and it was outstanding. Service was friendly and impeccable, the food was great - amazingly good traditional Italian which is becoming more difficult to find - and the ambiance was exactly what you expect from a neighborhood favorite. Family-owned for 100 years doesn’t happen by accident. Many thanks to Bill, the owner, for spending a little time with us (and every other patron) and making us feel like old friends. Certainly worth a drive even if you don’t live in the area.
