Our server was excellent. He asked all the right questions to ensure our courses arrived at the right time. Very attentive and yet gave us space. The food was really tasty, fresh and cooked to perfection. Our wine and cocktails were excellent as well.

This was a last minute reservation for a large party on a work trip. I had always wanted to go to an Eataly, so this worked out great that we could have dinner and explore the store. The food was pretty good, and best of all we could hear our conversation.

The service started out strong, then petered out. Our meal, however, was quite good, and we would most likely return.

Great spot for an authentic Italian meal. Chicken Marsala is the best and Isaac makes some espresso martinis to die for.
