    We recently celebrated my wife’s birthday at Tavernetta and it was an unforgettable experience. The highlight of the evening was the pasta with lobster—perfectly cooked and brimming with flavor. It was a dish to savor with every bite. The ambiance was warm and inviting, making it an ideal spot for a special occasion being my wife’s birthday. The staff were attentive and friendly. Great suggestion made for our first time here! If you’re looking for authentic Italian cuisine with a touch of elegance, Tavernetta is a fantastic choice. We’ll definitely be back!

    We were a party of eight. Not all plates arrived at the same time, which is always awkward. My food was not hot. The beef was not so tender, but if you order a steak, you should get a steak knife instead of a regular table knife.
