   Exceptional in every way. The Thanksgiving buffet was above all the rest that i have ever experienced. The meat section was perfectly prepared and you could cut the turkey with a fork it was si tender. An abundance of side choices that were impeccable in taste and quality. Service was very attentive, and the atmosphere pleasant. The only negative was the pumpkin pie had too much clove spice. I will be returning in the near future for the Italian food.

   Four of us decided to try this Italian restaurant. The bread service and the calamari and the salads we delicious. The pasta entrees were ok. If we go again, we will try the other items on the menu.

   I want to give this restaurant a better score than I did. Overall I actually like the restaurant, and I really want to go back. The food is pretty good, especially since there are not a lot of decent Italian places in the area. The space itself is nicely appointed and it kind of strives to be a more finer dining type place. Had there not been a band in the bar area of the restaurant, I would rate it a 4 overall. But the noise level of the band in the bar area was simply too loud. No one could talk to each other without practically yelling. To their credit, the manager and server were very nice and worked with the band to turn it down. We were then at least able to chat in normal speaking voices. But in all, I think the band (and they weren't bad by any means) just kind of lowers the whole dining experience to bar-food type experience. Maybe the band is a draw to some, but to me it was a kind of an unnecessary loud distraction. I love music and enjoy it in the background. But primary mission is to eat and commune and it was just very difficult until the manager worked to turn it down. Thanks to the very nice server and nice manager! We really appreciated your efforts!

   Great view being seated along the windows overlooking the pergola and lounge area. Marina was absolutely perfect with the service, helpfulness and friendliness! The food was perfectly portioned, plated well and served in a very timely manner. The cocktails were perfectly balanced between taste and potency. Overall an absolutely terrific dining experience worth another visit!

   What a great experience in our first visit here. Family recommended this restaurant for dinner and we were enchanted by our server and would order the mussels in cream sauce again! It would make a great shared entree!

   We stayed at The Ridge Hotel to celebrate our anniversary. Crafted Italia had beautiful decor but it ended at that. The service wasn’t good and the food came out cold and undercooked. The manager didn’t come to the table after the waitress said he or she would . It was very disappointing.

   Beautiful hidden gem. Fantastic view, classy restaurant with fabulous food, good cocktails, impeccable service and reasonable prices. Only drawback is that bread service is ala carte and is $9. We didn’t miss it because we are watching the carbs anyway.

    went there for the prime rib Saturday. Waitress was very nice but she was slammed. It took about 40 minutes to get our food for a table of six. Primary servings are very big. Fillet serving is double what you would see at most places. Tabletop could be more upscale. restaurant vibe good. Ours nice.
