Amazing with the reservation time I was 15 mins late and I still got my reservation. Our server was amazing he was frequently checking up on us. Our appetizer and our food came out quick it wasn’t a long wait at all. I order the lasagna it was so good, soft and the tomato sauce was so good it had a good amount. My girlfriend had the gnocchi’s and she loved them definitely one of her top favorites the only problem is if you don’t like truffle it can be a bit of a meh flavor but other than that they were great. We both had the sticky Parmesan potatoes they were so good as well. The ambience is amazing, the decorations for Christmas are very beautiful, the dim lighting makes it a bit more intimate. Definitely a good date night option.

The food was amazing, great staff, but the music didn't match the vibe, wished it was more Frank Sinatra type of music rather than pop.

Everything was pretty good and we enjoyed ourselves. I did note in the reservation that we were celebrating our 15 year anniversary. It would have been nice to have that recognized somehow. I also would have preferred if the entrees came out a bit later than appetizers. The apps were cleared and the entrees were brought simultaneously. It felt a bit rushed.
Siena TavernResponded 2 days ago
Hello Holly - It's great to know that you appreciated our food. We apologize if you felt rushed, especially regarding the timing of your appetizers and entrees. In addition, we are terribly sorry if your notes were missed about your anniversary. This is definitely going to be revisited in our trainings. Your feedback is important to us and we'll certainly take it into consideration. We hope to welcome you back soon for another celebration. Best, The Management Team
