The ambience was nice? Modern and clean our food was so delicious with good quality ingredients, particularly the bacon. Our waitress was so sweet and professional. It was my first time there with my friend and we had so much to talk about and didn’t feel the noise level was bad at all even with it being busy. Definitely coming here again! I got the sour dough bacon egg and cheese with aioli. It was perfect and hot.

We were in a few weeks ago and had to come back for the Seared Tuna. We tried the Pasta A La Posto for the first time this visit too. Amazing. Our server Liz was amazing and made a point to visit with us as well as take care of our order. The food and staff at Posto 31 creates an experience far beyond anywhere else we dine. Chef Jason is a mastermind. We’ll be back and soon.
