Had a nice table in the front of house. Good service. My husband had the gnocchi, which was excellent. I had the carbonara, which was just ok. A bit too salty and not enough sauce. Definitely a good place to eat.

We celebrated a birthday at Incontro, and it was fantastic. It is a family-owned and run restaurant. From the minute you walk in the door, you feel welcomed. It was like going to a friend's house for dinner. The service was exceptional, and the food was delicious. There is something for everyone. They have a nice selection of cocktails and wine, too. I would highly recommend it.
