   Excellent and friendly service from the staff. Did not feel rushed in any way. Great value at lunch with a 2 course option.

   Work dinner, had to split the bill 6 ways, individual cc. Company policy. Waiter not happy at all. Screwed up our orders. Ordered apps, came out with our meals. Our waiter seemed annoyed with us the whole time. Food was excellent as usual. GF pizza, polenta w beef and pork was very tasty. Are two times this week the king salmon app!!

   First time going to Eatly. Food was very good and nice ambiance. The only thing I did not like was it was loud and very difficult to chat.

   I wouldn't recommend this restaurant to anyone. I attempted to try one a dish however they were out - it was Saturday night 7:00 pm. and they were out? The dish I settled for was not hot - in certain areas it was but not all, only to realized it was microwaved, along with the meat being frozen and then thawed (due to its after taste). During dinner I looked around and noticed the many empty seats. Overpriced non-traditional Italian food

   Not usually one to leave reviews, especially poor ones, but this place needs to get its act together. Second visit to this location and even worse experience. No communication between waiters and wherever the food is prepared. Everyone got their meals at different times. Appetizers came one at a time. 30 minutes for a glass of wine. Waiters nowhere in sight. Last entree was a steak that came out cold and needed to be sent back. Almost an hour and half after the first person’s entree. At least the first visit the manager offered a complimentary dessert, this time just apologies. Won’t be returning again anytime soon.

   Food was decent, but really not on par with Eataly in the city. Some of the food came out tepid. Service was really slow and not good. The hostess sat us without all the place settings. The surroundings and decor are very nice. Too bad the food and service couldn’t match it.

   I was expecting the market to be larger than it was. They had a good amount of stuff, but I live near Livoti's and can get everything there. The restaurant was nice but it was very loud. We decided on the beet salad for the table because it's large for one person. It had beets and oranges and pistachios in it. It was tasty, but bland. All it needed was a little salt and it was delicious. I had the cavatelli with sausage and broccoli rabe and again, it was good, but a little bland. It needed a little salt and was better. The portion sizes are decent. Overall, it was good but not great. Not sure if I would try again.

    The pasta was aldente and delicious! I had the linguini with pesto very fresh not too thick and cooked perfectly. My mom who’s a picky eater had the ravioli stuffed with lemon and cheese she ate every bite. Only complaint was waiter took too long to bring my drink and didn’t offer cheese or pepper until we were almost done. However, the manager apologized and didn’t charge me for my drink. Excellent customer service. Will be back
