   The restaurant's decor and ambiance were very nice. The staff was friendly. The pace of the courses was nicely spaced. The bread was excellent; however, the quality and presentation of the food was very poor. We noticed that the tables surrounding us received meatballs with the pasta, but we did not. When we asked the server about this, she offered to bring us meatballs with our dessert. We requested more bread during the second course of pasta but did not get it until the dessert had arrived. The presentation of the main course was horrible. The pork/panchetta dish had tinfoil in it, which we had to pick out, and it was very dry. The chicken was smothered in some sort of brown sauce and was unrecognizable. The salad was limp and soaked in dressing. The risotto was cold. Overall, we were very disappointed with the quality, taste and presentation of the food. Our bill came to almost $200 and we both left hungry. In my opinion, not worth the money.

   The steelhead trout was delicious! The pasta course was cold. The pasta with truffles was very good. Tiramisu was divine! Free wine was a plus. Biscotti take home was a nice touch.

   It was our 3rd time going to Corso. All the food was excellent , but with that said I did find the main course a little less impressive, bone in chicken ,that was a little dry in a creamy sauce and skin on broiled fish, as compared to other days when we have had tempura seafood, and chicken and most recently an amazing steak and broasted chicken. I am celiac and the menu has a full gluten free option including pasta and bread, which is delicious. Our servers have all been great and most recently Sav was our waiter and he was really wonderful and very informative and attentive. We never had to reach to fill our glass of wine or water and each course was served in the perfect amount of time. Excellent quality and price in an upscale setting.

   Well had a wonderful experience. Trying many different Italian recipes was a fun experience and all the different dishes were delicious. Highlights I would praise the chef on are the potatoes; they melt in your mouth. The meatballs, chicken and pasta were all delicious. Our server was young, respectful and did his job perfectly. I would recommend everyone that can, try this restaurant, at least once! Arrive hungry, you will leave full.

    We were here for the Rocco DiSpirito special dinner event - our 1st time to Corso - and were immediately impressed with the modern decor. The staff were all very professional and friendly and we had at least 2 “managerial” visits to our table to ask how we were enjoying the meal and to explain the restaurant’s format even when not hosting a celebrity chef. The food arrived smoothly, efficiently and tastily - presented very nicely and hot! Very good value for this event and based on their regular pricing, too! We are often leery of “tourist destinations” but we definitely enjoyed this evening and will return!
