   Clear that waitress knew our large party tip was guaranteed so she focused on other tables. Bummed. I used to like this place.

   They serve the best Sicilian food in the county! Best to reserve on Saturdays. Always full, but it's worth the wait

   Anniversary dinner, a fav of ours. The staff is attentive, efficient, and friendly with great service. The food was over the top. From drinks to dessert. the Main course was amazingly succulent. My sea bass was decadent and mouthwatering over mashed potatoes and garden vegetables. The pistachio salmon was moist and tasty it was over a bed of risotto. Both stellar.

    Our Anniversary Dinner last night was exceptional in every regard. The Service provided was perfect and the ambiance was warm and welcoming. We have visited this restaurant before and the food is always top notch but I think our choice of Sea bass and Chicken Piccata both served with mashed potatoes and roasted veggies were absolutely amazing and are still being dreamed of today. We highly recommend Attica Trattoria for any occasion, special or not😃👍
