   Service - To start, we were seated about 15 min after our reservation time. I understand places can be busy, but that is kind of the reason for a reservation to begin with. Food was mostly brought out to us still hot, besides us waiting almost 25 minutes for the initial cocktail we ordered. Additionally, be prepared to wait ~1.5 hours for main courses. If I had arrived mentally prepared to spend around 3 hours at Timpano I think my girlfriend would have felt I was in a better mood... Atmosphere - I really like the vibe and decoration of Timpano. Lighting is dark, and even though you are packed pretty tightly inside of the building you are able to have some small sense of privacy. However, you will need to actively attempt to not listen into other conversations as you may be seated so close you would think y'all are sharing a table. Food - We ordered burrata, rigatoni, farfalle, a few cocktails, and the strawberry tiramisu. The burrata was really tasty, with a nice portion size and the pistachio spread was a great twist. Entrees, however, were a bit different. I was not disappointed by the size of, but the sauce on my rigatoni. I was finding many whole, unincorporated ingredients in the sauce. I personally don't enjoy eating whole garlic cloves and finding tomato stems in my mouth; although I will admit taste is subjective... The farfalle was very good with nice ground short rib and I had no complaints there. I also really enjoyed the strawberry tiramisu; however, I was a little disappointed in the portion size - split between my girlfriend we each got about 3 bites. Value - Timpano offers a stylish atmosphere with cozy yet tight seating. For a nice date expect to spend ~$80-$100 per person; and I seriously cannot understand how this price is justified. An incredibly slow kitchen made for a drawn-out meal, and the fact that we spent almost 3 hours there on a Sunday night (NOT eating but mostly WAITING) was a little unexpected.

   Food was delayed, and then the chicken parmesan was cold and dry. The pasta was great as always.

   Not sure if the sever had tables that he could not see us. Server was nice, but we had numerous issues. Dinner order was taken after appetizer and salad completed. Additional bread (part of appetizer) was brought to table after dinner was served. Wine was poured after entire dinner was over. Even to be seated with reservations it took a while to be seated. Food was okay, but will never come back to this restaurant.

   Great service and experience. We order for antipasti the burrata, love it 💖💖💖 However, the pasta of the "Parm to table experience" has too much PESTO... Overall it was good.

   We came for sunday brunch. The food was average and the waiter seemed distracted. I heard great things about this place and was super disappointed

   The experience was great. We ordered the roasted chicken with the parm to table experience. The chicken didn’t come out cooked all the way. They did a great job at receiving feedback and remade our order and didn’t charge us for it.

    First time at this restaurant. I had an injury to my foot and had to slip my shoe off for a little. One of the hostess proceeded to bring people to my area so they could loudly talk about my shoe being off and how disgusting it was… very uncomfortable and don’t think we will return. Extremely loud and not so nice staff.
