    I had a fantastic anniversary dinner at Annabelle’s Kitchen Downtown. The food was exceptional, clearly made with care, and the service was attentive without being intrusive. The atmosphere was great, though a loud customer caused a slight disruption. Overall, a wonderful experience that I’ll definitely repeat!

    This was our first time visiting and will not be our last. Brad B was our server and was excellent! He seemed genuine and willing to help, he provided us recommendations for dinner and dessert and gave us tips how to best enjoy the lemon tart and described how their tiramisu and limoncello are different. He made the experience 10/10. We had ricotta toast, artichokes, spaghetti, ravioli, lemon tart and tiramisu.

    Went for my husband’s birthday. Service was excellent. Manuel was super attentive and friendly. We had bruschetta and arancini to start. Both were very good. My husband enjoyed the lasagna and I had the butternut squash ravioli. The sauce was so tasty. Think it would be great on the gnocchi as well. Finished off with apple crumble. We will definitely be back. The owner, Hector, came by to see how everything was and to say hello. Overall great experience
