Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Il Sogno offers an exceptional dining experience with "impeccable" food and "flawless" service. The staff, including Rose and Tiffany, ensure guests feel like family. Highlights include the "luxurious" Lobster Cappellacci and the must-try Spicy Piggy. The cozy, inviting atmosphere and attentive service make it a "highly recommend" destination.

    We enjoy coming here for celebrations. This was our last high school graduate. And the food, ambience, service, server was fantastic. We have yet to be disappointed & are thankful for the great experience.

    We celebrated our 41st wedding anniversary yesterday at Il Sogno and couldn’t have had a better experience The restaurant hostess and our server Tiffany were fantastic…very personable and attentive. Food, as always, was very good, although the lobster tail was too salty (I grew up working in seafood restaurants, including in New England, so am a fair judge of this). Everything else, from the Burrata appetizer through short rib and pasta based entrees, to dessert, was interesting and delicious. We had an enjoyable evening. Thanks, Il Sogno!

    From the minute you walk in the hostess is welcoming and the staff is great. Had the Cacio e Pepe and it was perfect! Actually all the food at our table was great and the server was friendly and attentive without hovering. An amazing place for dinner.

    Well we made reservations for 6:15pm but didn't get seated until 6:30pm, and then we were sat at apparently the wrong table because 15 minutes later we were asked to move to a different table. After that our server never really engaged with us personally or professionally. She had a hard time demonstrating even the common practices of serving a table like not reaching in front of my wife's face and plate no less than 7 times. We also watched 3 other tables get seated, order, eat, pay and leave before we even got our food. Ridiculous! The food was excellent! But the service was terrible!

    Have been there a couple times and usually enjoy our experience. However, went today for Mother’s Day and our table did not have a dedicated server. We got drinks when we got to the table and did not have food until almost an hour after we sat down. No one came to wait on us and all other tables were being adequately served. We decided to go up to the bar for another drink to say something and got someone’s attention since we were not being helped, then someone stepped up to serve us for the remaining MAYBE 15 minutes we were in the restaurant. This was ridiculous and unfortunate as it was our Mother’s Day celebration.

    Dining at this restaurant is more than just a meal — it’s an experience, and one that sets the gold standard for hospitality and quality. From the moment you walk in, you’re treated like family, thanks to the incredible team of Rose, Tiffany, and the ever-welcoming Momma Nancy. Rose exudes grace and professionalism, making sure every detail is just right. Tiffany brings unmatched energy and warmth, always remembering your favorite drink or dessert. And then there’s Momma Nancy — the heart and soul of the place — who makes every guest feel like they’re coming home for Sunday dinner. Her presence alone makes the whole atmosphere feel magical. The food? Impeccable. The service? Flawless. But it’s the people that make this restaurant a true example of perfection. You don’t just leave with a full stomach — you leave with a full heart.
