- CCMvipSouth Carolina •67 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoAnother WONDERFUL dinner and celebration of my birthday. Gaston was an excellent server, very personable, efficient, attentive and knowledgeable. We were given a complimentary Prosecco and a taste of three recommended wines for our meal choices. I chose the Chianti. Dinner was terrific, my veal chop was perfect. My favorite desert at Ombra is there Affogato. Great night.More infoOMBRA Cucina ItalianaPrice: Moderate• Italian• Hilton Head Island•4.7
- RRobertRaleigh / Durham / Chapel Hill •14 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoThursday night was the second time we dined here, after an outstanding experience on Tuesday night. The restaurant was much busier than Tuesday night with 2 private parties. The food once again was outstanding, but the service was not as good as Tuesday night. We had 2 servers, one tall guy and a shorter guy. The shorter guy was very cordial, professional and friendly. He took very good care of us. The taller guy was not as attentive, and we overheard him talking to the longtime customers who were once locals, that tourists don't tip well. This is a slap in the face since WE ARE TOURISTS! Suggest that management caution their wait staff regarding that tourists come to their restaurant too and our money can be spent at other places. That said, the food was the star of the show both nights. Talented chef who creates outstanding specials and a solid regular menu. Backed up by a solid kitchen team, they turn out dishes quickly and with great execution. Thanks for 2 great meals!More infoMichael Anthony's Cucina ItalianaPrice: Expensive• Italian• Hilton Head Island•4.8
