    Intolerable noise. Very difficult to find parking. Otherwise the service and food were superb! Very speedy, knowledgeable & efficient wait staff. Please do something about the noise - it’s painful. Tablecloths to dampen sound?

    Always excellent. The evening's signature Cocktail Special was very tasty. I had never ordered the Mezzeluna but it was fabulous -- tender pasta shells in a gorgeous sauce. Frances, my server, took excellent care of me, as did the other attentive souls who carried plates and glasses to and away. Lovely!

    Always wonderful. The food is carefully prepared and very good. The Negroni is pitch perfect and the staff is attentive without being overbearing.

    We shared a seasonal salad, which they kindly split for us, a lovely crab pasta, and a beautifully prepared swordfish main. Service was attentive and overall quality and ambiance were what we have come to expect from Via del Corso. It is on the pricy side but we will be back.
