The atmosphere is amazing…an old bank they made into a restaurant. The tables are far enough apart to not feel crowded, staff is welcoming. Wine menu, a large number of Italian wines offers a tasty selection to pair with the food. Plates are for sharing and we very much enjoyed everything we ordered the sweet corn ravioli was outstanding. You must try it…you’ll go back.","submittedDateTime":"2023-03-08T20:51:00Z","rating":{"overall":5,"__typename":"ReviewRating"},"user":{"nickname":"DebraA","isVip":true,"profileColor":"ICECREAM","initials":"DA","simpleModerationState":"APPROVED","profilePhoto":{"photoBySize":null,"__typename":"PublicDinerProfilePhoto"},"__typename":"ReviewUser"},"highlights":[{"startIndex":367,"endIndex":374,"__typename":"ReviewHighlight"}],"__typename":"DishReview"},{"reviewId":"OT-1052524-10590-150032982915","text":"Front hostess was slow and disorganized.

Hardly any diners so little to no ambiance. Service was rushed, no bread offered and, after ordering one beer, was told that was the last one available.
Food was excellent however.
Remaining two servers were OK but, all in all, a most disappointing experience on an evening we were looking forward to.

Overall, we were disappointed. Kelly, our server, did a wonderful job. She was friendly and attentive. The sausage and peppers appetizer were very good, but the entrees were mundane. The chicken was dry and flavorless, and the potatoes were greasy. The rigatoni was too Al Dente, and the sauce was not very favorable. Hopefully just an off night for the kitchen as we've been here before and have enjoyed our meals. Will visit Nostro again and hope for the best.

We had a great night at Nostro’s. We had a family dinner before going to the Stanley. We had a round of drinks at the bar (the Buffalo Trace Manhattan was spot on) before being seated. The service and food was excellent. The white truffle garlic bread was excellent. We enjoyed the evening. Thanks to the staff for a great night

As always, the ambience at Nostros' is great. The staff is extremely friendly. Our food was delivered timely and 'hot' out of the kitchen. This is the perfect restaurant especially if you're going to the Stanley Theater for a show/play. We'll be back again!
