I know it was Valentine’s Day, it was a special menu. It was one of the best Tenderloin and scallops we have had.

This was our second time visiting Colletta and they have not disappointed! My partner and I had a good experience here on Valentine’s Day. It was a bit busy but that was expected. Our server, Carly was very knowledgeable and provided an excellent customer experience. We would definitely visit again.

Service and ambiance was great. The food was good but we felt it a little pricey for what we got. We would go back w friends but probably not a special date night.

Ordered a mixed drink - Endless Summer- spiced and coconut rum, montenegro, guava and lime, delicious. Their Focaccia served with Ricotta with honey,delicious. We ordered the rigatoni CAB colognes. They used radiatore pasta instead, shape of pasta makes no difference. We did not care for the sauce, too much of the sauce and mixed all together. Edible, but expected more. Came with ricotta. It was Valentines Day. They gave me with the bill a lip mask, will have to try, and a pair of heart shaped rose colored glasses. God knows I need to look at the world now through rose colored glasses. All and all a nice visit.

Went with wife and my food was brunt and cold, hers was undercooked and hard. I expected higher quality of food from a restaurant in that luxury of Cary, servers good but food wasn’t it. Olive Garden has served us better food.

Our sever was delightful and helpful - just enough service without feeling ignored, but not rushing us through dinner. The food was incredible - we tried a pizza as an appetizer, because we always say we are going to try a pizza there but usually want an entree even more. The lasagna was a masterpiece and the Radatori wonderful with just enough kick. A delightful evening!
