    Since changing the name from the Blind Pig, my wife and I have been wanting to return and experience the now, DiMaggio’s, and it didn’t disappoint! After the renovations, this great hidden gem of a place is so cozy, warm and inviting and the atmosphere envelopes you with this old school Italian charm and feel. The staff is welcoming and helpful. The owner Brandon is fantastic and personable, talking to all the customers as though he’s known you for years. Our server Eric was top notch and would definitely ask for him again. The food was impeccable and I’m not one to want to eat Italian out as I grew up eating homemade Italian food, so really nothing compares. But what Brandon has going on in the kitchen is something I really appreciate and will be going back for. Starting off with the Eggplant Stack. Fried eggplant layered with mozz cheese, roasted red peppers, tomatoes and arugula with balsamic… come on now! Though the eggplant is fried, it’s a cold dish which I wasn’t expecting but nonetheless, it was complex, evoking and super damn delicious! Next up was Clams Oreganata with toasted breadcrumbs. A simple bite with great flavor and nuance. Last was the Alfredo Diablo. Nothing really complicated here as an Alfredo dish, but when it’s done well, like this one is, it’s something oh so special that flickers your heart and touches your soul. With spot on cooked noodles, chunks of hot Italian sausage and a spicy creamy sauce that makes you just keep going back until you can’t eat no more! (Side note: it warms up just as good the next day). We had to skip desert unfortunately but what we saw looked delicious and will be getting next time. Thank you DiMaggio’s for a memorable dining experience and we will be coming back and bringing friends!

    Dimaggio’s is absolutely amazing, it is our go to for the best Italian food around..From Appetizers to Desserts, you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. Owner/Chef Brandon is incredible and so personal…his engagement with the guests takes Dimaggio’s to another level. If you sit at the bar, Jamel will take your experience over the top.

    Excellent all around. Exceptional service, ambiance, food and wine. Lovely small family owned and operated restaurant. Sat at the bar and really enjoyed our date night. You can dress up or go causal and you will feel comfortable. Looking forward to our 2nd visit!

    Our food was delicious. We had the house pulled mozzarella and heirloom tomatoes, for an appetizer, which was spot on and generously proportioned. We also had linguini in white clam sauce. It was filled with chopped and whole clams in the shell with a broth that was not too buttery like many other restaurants. The linguini was cooker perfectly. Our server was superb and gracious. Jamel is an excellent, do it all, kind of guy. Our tanqueray and tonics were yummy with a generous pour too. We had a great experience and will definitely go back!!

    This is a beautiful Italian food experience. The fresh mozzarella will invoke memories of home. The red sauce is perfect - not overloaded with the horrid...Oregano! The braised rib was supreme. Nothing can compare to the shrimp scampi appetizer... I thought my mother came back to life & cooked for me! The fresh bread is perfect for picking up all of the delicious drippings from the scampi! The desert... Chocolate Ganache with fresh whipped cream & cannoli crumbles was to die for! Jamal as usual is fantastic at his job & never fails to be thoughtful & personable! Make reservations as DiMaggio's is an intimate experience & fills up fast!

    An unparalleled experience from Jumel at the bar. Tables are great, but Jumel brought dinner, a show, personality, flair and passion where I counts. We were never bored and never rushed. The meatball appetizer was rustic and so so so good paired with the calamari with calabrian peppers, just wow! If you like it hot you need the "Spicy Rigatoni" in your life, richness and balance in one exquisite bite. The cocktails were phenomenal (especially the Joey Fumoso- a smoked old fashioned made with Carefree Bourbon, and "the city"- the best manhattan ive had in 20 years, they make their own bitters! Veal Saltimboca was divine, the special of the day: Wagyu Pizzaiola was the best bite of the night, The food was beyond expectation. The personal touches were noticed (our bartender brought each course and described it, the chef went around and touched tables and said hello) dessert was cannoli even though we wanted all the desserts, no room though. With 100 Italian places in the area, it's hard to pick one, but go here and sit at the bar, you won't be disappointed.

    Food was good but took FOREVER to come out. The salad appetizer must have taken 30-45 minutes alone! Additionally, we asked for a heater to be turned on no less than 3 times and were told they were all broken but as others sat down they turned the heaters on immediately… it was weird.
