    Our server was wonderful and the food was amazing - pistachio salmon especially. Feels like a special event. Ambiance was like a nice business lunch in New York..been a while but you get what I mean. Linen tablecloths, positive upbeat vibes, welcoming host, great service. Ok, maybe not like NY, exactly, lol

    Everything was great from start to finish. Server (sorry, forgot her name) was friendly and prompt. I had the Chop Salad and my colleague had the Bacio Burger and we both enjoyed our food!!!

    The food and service was excellent - I'd go back just for the bread and even to sit in Jerome's section. He was fantastic - very attentive, knowledgeable and considerate of everyone. And the food - wow. We all raved about what we ordered, from the ravioli to risotto to the complimentary bread. The only negative was the noise level - it was very loud and I felt like I almost had to yell to talk to our party or would ask them to repeat what they said. Despite the noise, I would not hesitate to return for lunch.

    It was a good dining experience. . . Roomy and the place was not too loud. I had mushroom risotto (which I shared with my son) and my husband had ribeye and a chocolate mousse we shared after the meal. Both were cooked to perfection. Our server was exceptional. We’re glad to hear that they will resume their lunch hours. We will definitely go back.

    Perfect for a holiday lunch with a friend. You can’t go wrong with the always yummy pizza. The gnocchi is wonderful as well.
