    This is my third time at the Italiano. It is very noisy. This time they tried to seat me in the lounge, where the table was unreachable for me, and corrected it and placed us in the dining room. The reason I go to the Italiano is for fresh, homemade pasta. The first time when they had just opened was pretty bad, but the second was awesome! This time, my husband got the special with black truffles and it was wonderful. I was looking forward to the spaghetti in tomato and fennel broth with prawns. The pasta was overcooked and not enough sauce. I asked for more sauce, but it didn't do it. I was disappointed that they couldn't serve a perfect pasta dish. I do have to say the service was impeccable.

    Once you adjust to the lovely volume and energy, Craft cocktails with seasoned bartenders start off you visit. Generous portions and every dish we had was excellent! Cocktails are the pricey but food prices are a good value based on quality and quantity (made great leftovers the following night)

    Excellent and lovely evening at The Italiano. Kenneth, who was our convivial server, was outstanding from his exceptional service to his food recommendations to his attentiveness. The entrees were delicious and very substantial. Eddie, an assistant manager was welcoming, gracious, dapper and clearly loves his work. Happy to highly recommend The Italiano for a fabulous dining experience. Special thanks to Kenneth and Eddie. We loved our evening together. Ciao, bello!

    It was our first time to The Italiano and we will be back! The restaurant is beautiful, service exceptional and the food was delicious. We went with another couple and could actually hear each other and have a conversation without shouting. A lovely evening in every way
