   Food was good; however, it took a bit longer for our food to arrive. We sat outside because they had a DJ inside, and the music was too loud. We tried the half price deal for pizza kits since it was a Sunday and that was a pretty good value, and pizzas were great.

   We had an outstanding birthday celebration last night at Dominico’s - the service was outstanding. We once again sat at the bar with Kelly - who poured great wines to pair with our outstanding meal! We started with meatballs, two orders of brussel sprouts and a charcuterie board which were perfectly prepared. The birthday boy had the burger which was cooked to perfection, we had the steak - which reminded us of being in Florence, Italy (one of our favorites) and we ordered the pork chop - which is always consistently good and the sides are perfectly paired! The kitchen did an outstanding job preparing a perfect celebration dinner! Kelly, Jesus and the serving team are the best!

   The food was delicious. Everyone enjoyed the meal they chose, e had pizza, hamburger and pasta. The service was great and even though it was a little chilly at night, we stayed warm.

   Horrible, we had a reservation at 8:00 we got sat 30 mins after, the server took around 20 mins to go to the table and he took some other peoples order first even though we were first he never apologized about it after I told him. Calamari soggy, the pizza tasted like it was reheated, the steak came with grits instead of mashed potatoes, meat supposed to be med it came out to be rare. No apologies from the server. Never coming back

   Outstanding food and service! Gary is a great chef - the food and choices are excellent! Kelly is the absolute best and selects the best wines to taste and drink! We love Dominicos!

   Incredibly poor service. Restaurant should have been better prepared for the holiday or reduced their available reservations. Wait was long to check in for my reservation, wait was even longer for initial server interaction, staff seemed to be confused as to which orders belonged to which table, once food was served, there was over an hour with zero contact from the staff. We had to flag the floor manager (I assume) to get a box and the check. Server clearly checked his machine to see if a tip was left, while we we leaving. Many of the guests seemed to be bothered by the lack of service. Definitely not ideal for a Valentine’s dinner.

   Managed to get a reservation in the 2nd floor room on Valentine's Day. We did not know this existed since last year we were outside. Ambience was great. Staff was very welcoming and as always, the food was great.

   Great food! We ordered the arugula salad, roasted mushroom soup, salmon and pork chop. All were delicious and we’ll be back for more of that amazing soup and want to try the pizza next time. We each did a wine flight with our meal which was a great way to get acquainted with their wines. Only disappointment was no gluten free pasta option (although they do offer a gluten free pizza crust).

    Celebrating Chinese New Year at Domenico’s was nothing shy of exceptional. The menu hit all the spots and every wine pairing complimented each course. A full house on a very blustery evening put smiles and laughter on the guests enjoying the warm atmosphere, tasty meal, and friendly staff. A wonderful and memorable experience. Thank you !
