    I typically don't leave restaurant reviews, but I want to commend Nora and Cannon. I was served by Nora, who was extremely knowledgeable and in tune with what I wanted and needed. She impressed me with her ability to meet me at my level of knowledge with wine without talking down to me. I also had the opportunity to meet Cannon, who was very engaging and checked in on me to ensure that I had everything I needed. In their own styles, they both made me feel special, and they deserve recognition.

    My partner and I were celebrating our anniversary and the Tagliata staff were so celebratory by writing us a personalized card and bringing out complimentary Prosecco. The service was outstanding—genuinely one of the best experiences we’ve had at a restaurant. The food was delicious and some of the best, most authentic Italian we’ve tasted.

    As always, everything was great from beginning to end. I feel some of the portions could have been a bit more since we were a table of 5 but that's how they get you to order 2 of things and not just one. The staff were attentive and great as usual. We had a little snafu with one of our after lunch teas being cold but it was remedied very quickly. Of course we'll be returning in the future. Everything on the menu must be tried!
