    If you love Italian cuisine, planning a visit to 41 Bistro is a must! Everything is fresh and made in-house from the bread to the sauces & pasta! Not too pricey, but not conservatively cheap. I always say, you get what you pay for. If you’re looking for a semi-casual fine dining experience with remarkable food quality, taste, and presentation you will not be disappointed with 41 Bistro! Staff in the restaurant was very attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable. The staff made our first time dining experience at 41 Bistro fun, relaxing, and memorable. This certainly will be the first of many future visits to this amazing place!

    My wife and I love Il Pomodoro! We come here when we are in Florida from Chicago. The selection of both apps and entrees is wide, and the food is perfectly delicious. The wine list is also more than adequate and all prices are very reasonable. We both had pasta fagioli to start, which was uniquely great. My wife had chicken/spinach cannelloni and I had tortellini carbonara as our mains. Huge portions and both were fantastic! The ambience is warm and cozy, and the service impeccable. Our server, Alicia, was so nice, and attentive, efficient and friendly. We will continue to dine here when we are in town!
