   Booked a 7:30pm Valentine’s Day dinner reservation. Showed up and had to stay in line for 45 mins till 8:15pm. Waited 20 mins before even being approached for drinks. Ordered dinner and a starter shortly after but by 9:30pm still had not received our starter or our meal. Even saw a couple walk out of the restaurant having finished their meal that was 4 couples behind us in the original line. Asked for to-go boxes and left at 9:40pm. The male waiter (possibly a manager) comped our meals and drinks and apologized, but also tried to make an excuse that other people had to wait awhile. No one should have to wait 2 hours until 9:40pm for a 7:30pm reservation before they get their meal served.

   We made reservations for a Valentine's Day dinner. On previous visits, we had always been seated indoors without any issue. When we arrived, we were informed the only seating was outside. We had no notice of this beforehand,. It was a cold night, we were not prepared to sit outside, and the heat lamps were not adequate as far as we were concerned. We left!

   I reserved and asked to be in the back room, we were seated instead right under a speaker in the front room. I took quite a while to get a waitress to order. When we did , it was pretty simple. However, when the dishes came out one entree was wrong. Three entrees came out. But mine was not what I had ordered leaned into myface and said this plate of creamy ravioli was what I ordered. I had ordered lasagna. She did not agree. So I took it home for my husband. Lesdon to wait staff, listen anf if an order is wrong replace it with out arguement. Wjile we live the food, not seating us where we requested, not giving me what I ordered list uou good business.

   First timer and my impression of Agrodolce is the same i get from a Caesar salad. Somebody may like it, but it’s not Italian. Let alone Sicilian, whose cuisine is so original within Italy. IMO, the excessive use of garlic, vinegar and lemon felt stereotypical and killed the flavors of everything i ate. Nice ambiance with B&W movies of Toto’ projected on the red brick wall.

   The real deal! We’ve recently moved to Berkeley from Europe, and were delighted to get a taste of the old world here in Berkeley. Prices are also reasonable, which we’ve seen is a real rarity. We will be back!

    Fabulous food and amazing service. Met the owner who talked to us about making limoncello and even provided free tastings of it to us after dinner. A very memorable night!!!
