    Recommend the weekend brunch at $29. Service was exceptional. The best item I enjoyed was the eggs Benedict with Porchetta. Great take on a classic. The pork was some of the best pork belly I’ve had - 3 slices with one poached egg and hollandaise over half slice of chibatta. JR the manager and Jum our server were superb. Filipe was on point and attentive, just made the experience that much better. BTW free garage parking for retail. Regular Coffee is strong Italian brew so be ready, as you may want it with hot h2o ( Americano style). All portions are small plates for one person except the Benedict which was massive - didn’t mention the pork belly ( crisp, tender fat well rendered) oh so good. Ask for salt and pepper as some items could do with extra pinch (for my taste). Buratta and tomatoes was tasty. Cannoli are small and for me could have had more sweetness. In all great place for a great meal. Will go again to try lunch or dinner menu, if they are as good will become favorite restaurant.

    Really enjoyed our dinner at Corso. Sat at the bar with Thomas as our server. Started with the Lambrusco flight and a Caesar salad. The flight was very delicious and an unusual treat. The Caesar salad was ok - too much white lettuce and the dressing was ho hum. For entres, we had the lasagne and a pasta with sausage with a side of meatballs. The food was hot and tasty and came with delicious focaccia. We ended the meal with the marscapone cheese cake, which was delightful. Thomas was an attentive bartender/server. An added bonus were the Italian movies on the bar TVs. A really cute touch which enhanced the cozy Italian vibe. We will definitely go back.

    We love Corso! My husband and I eat here once a month for date night. The pasta is fresh and everything we’ve eaten here is delicious 10/10! This time we tried the whipped ricotta appetizer and it was to die for. They have beautiful sparkling Italian sodas which was perfect as I’m pregnant and he is doing dry January. Portion sizes are good for the price & when we did drink their wine selection is excellent. Highly recommend this restaurant! The manager came and checked in too, which I always admire and appreciate.

    David was our server and he did a great job, especially considering we were six loud ladies. The food was very good. Sometimes it felt like it took a long time to come out, but it was all very delicious. I was cold most of the time, which is my only complaint about the environment. Otherwise, it was a great night.  Also, really appreciate the free dessert for my sister's birthday.

    Another fantastic experience at Corso! This place really is so great. I’ve literally never had a bad meal there, and bonus, they’re always introducing me to wines I never knew I needed in my life. What’s not to love about that? Please try this place, they’re amazing! And make sure to ask for JR. If he is there, get his wine recommendations, then thank me later!

    Wonderful food and ambiance; service was a little slow despite multiple staff standing and chatting, and the drinks were overpriced.
