We had a fabulous time at Umbria! My friends and I came for restaurant week, and had a great meal. We got the gnocchi and steak, and everything was cooked to perfection. The espresso martinis were SO good! What’s more, we had an amazing waiter, Ken! He was so kind, kept an eye on us, and made us laugh throughout the meal. Next time we’re back, we will ask for Ken. I’ll be back to Umbria in the future!
