The place is a gem! Best sea bass I ever had! Chicken Marsala incredible! Do make plans to visit this place by the theaters! Theyll treat you like royalty!

This is my second opportunity to enjoy con Amore. The staff is amazing, they are family. The food is everything you would expect and more. Everything is made to order. Con Amore is a definitely new regular place when I want to be spoiled. If you enjoy a truly Italian experience you will not be disappointed. I would give more stars if I could.

Food was yummy. We came for the angus beef capaccio and the spaghetti clam. The restaurant is cute and cozy. The plaza looks kinda dead though 😂

Best dining in Corona. Family owned and operated with great staff that truly care and damn can they cook. Small place and the wait can be a little bit, but only because it is worth it. Live music and great place. Was afraid to recommend because it is small and I dont really want it to get more busy but they deserve this review.

Saw this place had good reviews and decided to try it out. Atmosphere was incredible. Beautiful paintings on the walls and live music that was mellow and indie. Owner was out on the floor interacting with customers including myself and his hospitality was amazing. Food was delicious, pricey but not super expensive. 10/10 would for sure visit again!

Wow. Amazing experience here. The inside is decorated so nicely and on Fridays they have live music that was so nice to hear while we were eating. Service and staff are amazing and very friendly. Its a small family owned business and the owner always comes up to check on how everything is.They have a great wine selection and the food is always so flavorful. Its my favorite Italian restaurant in the inland empire and my family loves coming here.We ordered the Gnocchi Pink, Lobster Ravioli, and the Salmon. Dont skip on the Lobster Ravioli. We also ordered the Caprese which was so fresh and a great starter. Highly recommend.I have nothing bad to say about this place and no critiques. The ambiance is great and everything is priced fairly for what you get. Check it out!

Friends and I went to Con Amore on Saturday, 10/29/2023. We couldnt ask for a better experience! The staff were wonderful, the food, excellent, and the atmosphere, very inviting. There was even a young lady singing and playing piano, and the songs she chose went perfectly with the evening! Fantastic place!

This place is the absolute BEST. If you are looking for authentic northern Italian food, and a relaxed an fun atmosphere, this is for you. I have yet to find anything sub-par on the menu. They dont take reservations so they never have to rush you out. Go here after the movie, not before, so you can hang out and enjoy. Perfect for date night or celebrating. Or just having amazing food with friends and family.

The best Italian food ever! I want to volunteer in the kitchen one day when Im back in CA so I can attempt to cook somewhat like them. The recipes on the internet arent even close. Staff is super friendly & makes you feel at home and part of the family. Check the menu as they say it changes on a regular basis.

Everyone told us to go here. We normally do not eat Italian out because of bad past experiences. This place was even better than everyone told us though. My husband and I were so impressed with our food that I forgot to take pictures. We went in on Sunday just after church and were first ones to be seated for day (that’s why no one is in my pictures). Place quickly filled up though. My husband had the sea bass and I had the veal. It was amazing. Service was incredible. This is run by the family. The owners came over and introduced themselves and talked with us. They made us feel like family. Just the way it should be. Will definitely be going back time and time again.

Super welcoming place with friendly service and most of all, great food! Host was very welcoming and friendly. Our server explained the dishes to our party in detail, gave us suggestions and time to decide. Every dish we tried tasted amazing.

Prices are out of control. They use to provide bread with your meal now they charge $12.00. My husband and I refuse to pay for bread and ordered the short ribb ravioli and soft drinks. Our meal came to $65.00 and we were still hungry when we left. The prices are also higher than what is on the website. The chicken dishes run $32.00 which I have never seen prices like this at any other restaurant. I have been to nice restaurants and never seen prices so high. This was my last time at this restaurant. and they hardly ever have lasagna but again, we will not return. We were so disappointed, we went to Panini Cafe to order Tiramisu.

Came in on a Saturday night around 8pm and was greeted and seated immediately. Service was great, food was amazing, and the live music was a nice touch. Will definitely be back again. Can’t wait to try some of their other dishes. Very clean and our food came out quickly.

We were in the mood for something other than our usual spot so I jumped on Yelp and found this place. Based upon the reviews we decided to give it a try. This restaurant is located right next to the movie theatre at Corona Crossings. Once you step in you immediately forget you are in a shopping center and feel like youve just walked into a quaint yet elegant Italian kitchen - beautiful decor, dark wood, wines, and the aroma of good Italian eats!We order the popular red wine blend (cant remember the name but its $11 a glass) which was delicious. Followed by the calamari, which was cooked perfectly - however for my taste I added a little salt and lemon to make it perfecto. I can never find gnocchi so we ordered the four cheeses to share, which Im glad we did because by itself it would not have worked as a meal - too small in my opinion. It was tasty but a little rich with all the cheese, is really like to find a bomb gnocchi with a red sauce. For dinner my hubby ordered the short rib ravioli and I ordered the lobster ravioli. I loved both of them but if I could do it again Id order the short rib ravioli as that is a delectable rare find while lobster ravioli is more readily available. No room for dessert so we passed and our bill was over $100. I think its a little pricey for the portion sizes but very delicious.During out dinner the power went out in the entire shipping center for about 15-20 minutes but it didnt keep the chef from cooking. We didnt mind so much but it did get a little warm in there. The chef was kind to bring us an amazingly delicious Moscato as an Im sorry and thank you for staying token.Service was excellent! Overall we had a wonderful experience and will definitely visit again.

This is a nice Italian restaurant (near the theater) located in Corona Crossings Plaza. The owners, and their Nephew are from Italy. Excellent food- that awakens your pallet. I had the Short Rib Ravioli and My Husband had the Meatballs. Truly amazing! If youre a Foodie- then this is a must. The staff were very attentive to your needs. The outside of the restaurant does it no justice- the inside atmosphere is romantic.... Hopefully someday- they can have their own building. This restaurant stands out- in atmosphere, location, service and taste!

Went here for an 81st birthday dinner for my mother-in-law. It was an early Saturday evening. The staff was very accommodating, attentive, and friendly. Every one of the eight people in our party ate every little bit of food on their plates. I guess that tells you how good it was. Our group ordered the Penne Carnosa, the Ravioli al burro salvia, Ravioli all Aragosta, Risotto ai Porcini, Risotto ai Fichi, and a couple of other things I cant remember. For dessert, which we really didnt have room for, we ordered the Cannoli, the baked pear, and another dish, I cant remember the name of. Sorry about that, but I can remember it all tasted so good, and again the plates were cleaned. When it came time to sing happy birthday to Grandma, we did, but then our waiter, Manuel, and another gentleman, whose name I didnt get, serenaded my mother-in-law with a beautiful Italian song. The entire experience made a memory we wont soon forget. Highly recommended.

We went to celebrate a late Mother’s Day and it was such a wonderful experience, the staff was very patient and friendly that was a plus and the food was the best. The salmon was by far the best we’ve ever had and the pasta with salmon was so good. I love that it wasn’t greasy at all everything was cooked to perfection. Thank you.

Amazing Anniversary Dinner! Alfredo made our evening by making for us this beautiful poached pear dessert with accompanying gelato. It was like nothing I had ever tasted! He was kind enough to share his secret ingredients and more than kind to share with us his stories of Italy. It was the perfect top-off to my excellent lobster ravioli and my husbands cannelloni. The Primitivo from Puglia was also superb at a great price point. All-in-all I cannot say enough about this amazing restaurant that hides in plain sight beside the theater at The Crossings on Tuscany Street (how appropriate!) Buon appetito!

First time to visit Con Amore and question why we havent been there sooner?? Everything was superb... the wine, the service, and the food! We had the olive oil rosemary bread, fettuccine sea bass, and spinach ricotta ravioli! Everything was absolutely delicious and we will definitely return. Highly recommend this fantastic restaurant! Thank you Con Amore!

Review №35

The chicken piccata and spinach ravioli was both very delicious. The service was quite excellent and the server was very attentive to refills. The only downside was the price. We found the dishes to be quite overpriced. ($26 and $32 each) We ordered a $4 side of bread: it tasted store bought. Although the food was delicious, we probably won’t return due to both meals being extremely overpriced.

Happy Anniversary to us! My wife and I enjoyed an intimate, relaxed, and carefree evening at Con Amore. Our servers and chef are a delightful family operating this gem of a restaurant making the very most of what COVID allows. We started with a delicious appetizer called Borra, a cheese ball drizzled in olive and truffle oils with tomatoes and strawberries. Delicious! We both ordered wonderful pasta dishes. My wife enjoying the pumpkin ravioli and I enjoyed a spicy penne dish. The pasta was perfect and the portions just right, leaving room for amazing desserts. I enjoyed a dark chocolate cherry cheesecake that I will never forget. It distracted me so much that I cant remember what my wife ordered! We had a Chianti wine that the owner recommended--it was perfect in its pairing. Such wonderful people with generous hearts on a beautiful and calm evening! We will certainly return.

Cute, authentic Italian restaurant with covid friendly seating outside. Amazing food, but menu does not offer descriptions so you will need to ask. Pasta Carbonara was delicious! I would definitely return here.

I have followed this family from the east coast in Inverness Florida to here in Corona California I wouldnt have it any other way. This is the most amazing authentic Italian food I have ever had. Be adventurous and tell them to surprise you with their course choice. I have never been dissappointed. The atmosphere is amazing and the service is top notch. Alfredo and Donna in California and Rosario in Florida. The best of two worlds for me!

Great experience. This is a true Italian restaurant at heart. One person in our party was vegan, and the chef improvised a vegan artichoke risotto that was spectacular. Wine, mains, dessert and coffee were all truly delicious. What a great find!

Great Authentic Italian Restaurant, if you are looking for Olive Garden style food this is not that. This is amazing authentic Italian cuisine with fresh seafood, pasta, and oh my you must try Donnas desserts. They change daily as she makes them from scratch. This is one of our favorite restaurants. You may have to wait a bit if you get there during peak hours like 6;30Pm to 7:30 but well worth the wait. Sit and have a glass of italian wine while you wait!

Seriously the best night! We traveled down south from the San Francisco area for a weekend at the spa. Decided to come here based on the menu and amazing reviews. Ill start off with the obvious, the food was ridiculously delicious. This is legit food, cooked with love. The atmosphere was wonderful, food, wine, appetizers, service- everything! Even though it was our first time there, we were treated like we were old friends of the family. I have never in my life left a restaurant and hugged the owner :) We were so sad to leave, but we left after they closed. We had an early morning flight home, but will definitely make this our regular dinner spot when we return for our next girls weekend :) A special thank you to Alfredo, Donna and the rest of their beautiful family for cooking us an amazing meal and making our evening so memorable. I wish I could leave more than 5 stars❤

This is the best Italian restaurant I have been to in Southern California. You absolutely have to get the gnocchi!!! They are these incredible little pillows that are impossible to resist! The chicken marsala is also delicious. The sauce is perfect, and the potatoes are crispy and melt in your mouth. The wait staff is so very nice and they really make sure you have a great experience. Make sure to get a cake for dessert because you will be so glad you did! We tried the lemon and the almond and the almond was one of the best cakes I have ever had! Both were delicious!

This was the second time my girlfriend and I had come and it was 10/10 once again. My girlfriend ordered the gnocchi pink and I ordered the short rib ravioli, which both tasted amazing. This restaurant is very friendly and kind hearted. Our host Alfredo was amazing and very professional. A very rude man stormed in the restaurant unhappy about not knowing a wait time. He was going off and making a scene. Alfredo handled it very well and professional. Definitely will be going back to this restaurant a third time.

Family operated, amazing recipes, and great service (as in they genuinely happy to have you there, are attentive to all the details, and go out of their way to make you comfortable). I had some wine based on their recommendation and it was wonderful. Also had a special ravioli dish that tasted like a million bucks. 💯 recommend this place.

Stopped in here for lunch for the first time. Do not know where all these 5 star reviews are coming from. Place was clean and staff was nice. However, the boy/girl that were working spent more time behind the bar flirting never a foot away from each other the whole time we were there. First off zero descriptions of the food are available. Unless you can read Italian you wont know what anything is. We had a printed out paper menu that only had a name and a price. We were left scrambling trying to figure out what the food was and was too embarrassed to ask the kid to go over each item with us. No usuals like lasagna, pizza, or chicken parmesan. Our salads had no signs of any arugula. The food is NOT mind blowing like everyone says. It was subpar and wasnt prepared as it was explained to us. The food at best was Mehhh....We were a little shocked to find out that the plates were $25+ but they offered no bread at all. We ended up having to order bread to go with our salads and meal. When I asked for a little side of Balsamic Vinegar I was told there was a $2.00 charge. THAT was the last straw. $100 for LUNCH.....and that was the end of the road for us. We were so excited when we heard about this place however all the amazing reviews seem fishy to us now. We wont be back and quite frankly were very underwhelmed and left there saying...What the heck?? Something isnt adding up with this place and all the reviews. Not worth the money and the reviews are misleading.

I cannot sing high enough praises for this place. Everything they make is absolutely delicious, and everything is made in house. For example, the olives, the burrata, any and all pastas. I ordered the 3 cheese gnocchi. Never have I ever had such perfection! It wasn’t too doughy, and they were filled with cheese! Also ordered the pizzaiola pasta and the sauce was to die for. Their seasoning is top notch, full of flavor. Alfredo is awesome, his wife is a queen in the kitchen and their daughter an absolute sweetheart. They didn’t have moscato so Alfredo made me a custom wine using a home made pear reduction. It was so good! They are attentive, funny, and kind. Will always recommend and cannot wait to return!

Service was excellent. Very friendly, seemingly family run restaurant. The menu is uncomplicated. Just a single page of options. You might think the menu is small compared to chain restaurants but it has something for everyone, and the quality and taste is beyond expectations. We had the caprese & burrata - both with toasted bread, the chicken piccata (perfect tangy sauce) and chicken marsala. The non-pasta entrées came with perfectly roasted veggies. The cappuccinos were smooth and needed no sugar. The deserts (cannoli & limincello cake) were decadent but not overly sweet. While they are more expensive than places that should not be named, they are incomparable in terms of quality, taste & service, so the price is proportional to the overall experience compared to other places. My family will definitely return.

This hidden gem is worth the visit. Mano and his staff will make you feel at home and the food prepared by Alfredo and his staff is delicious. The wine list is reasonably priced and compliments the food. Love the decor and the music is pleasant but not too loud. We dine here on a weekly basis and love it! Been here a couple times and each time is better than the last! Have had multiple things on their menu and they were all delicious. Words cannot describe this place. Just make the smart choice and go!

Excellent Italian restaurant. Was not expecting such a restaurant in such a location. Atmosphere was very old fashioned with wine and paintings all over the walls. Food was amazingly good. Appetizer was simple but full of flavor. I would say be careful with their bread though. Once you start, you really do not want to stop eating it. A place I would definitely go again if I had the option (& can drive for another 2 hours again). Wine was enjoyable.

The restaurant is located in the shopping center and has lots of parking available. It is spacious, yet cozy with nicely dimmed light, perfect for a date or a night out with a friend.Service is a bit on a slower side, but the staff are courteous and really nice.Food took a little while to cook, but I am willing to wait if its really being cooked instead of the kitchen using frozen prepared meals. The wine list is good, but they did not have the first wine I wanted. My penne with mushrooms was top notch, I would come here just for the food. Creamy sauce, large mushrooms mixed with pasta and an appropriate portion size - not too big, not too small.It got a bit crowded around 7 PM on a Friday, but not too bad. Overall, good impression and a bookmark on Yelp.

Valentines dinner was an incredible 5 course meal. The Sea Bass was juicy and tender with a crispy outside. Everything was incredible. Very happy with the experience. The servers have European accents whi h as to the experience. The ambiance is great and the owner is a fantastic host as he visited every table to socialize with everyone. Glad we called ahead as Valentines dinner is reservations only as the entire experience took about 3 and a half hours with all the courses. A truly romantic experience. I recommend this for dinner anytime.

The food is by far the best authentic Italian food I have had in Southern California. The owners are both from Italy. And it is a family-run business. Reminds me of Italy every time we eat there. The owners are so friendly and welcoming. Tonight we had the Chefs Menu and it was AMAZING! Will continue to make this my favorite go to for Italian.

A good selection of unique Italian cuisine. Delicious and well presented. Good wine selection, however the Liquor Bar no longer exist they have only beer and wine. Friendly wait staff willing to meet your needs. No Reservations are needed in late afternoon, however early evening maybe busy. There is dining Alfresco if you desire. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone that enjoys Italian food.

We have been trying different Italian places for a couple years in the area. There are a couple spots that are good, but this is the best that we have found!

Al dente plates, flavorful sauces, moderate portion sizes. The dessert and wine were just ok.However, I can’t say I’ll be returning because the price point was just too high for the area, as I paid 50% more than what I was expecting for the value (even excluding the 20% tip I paid). There was also a lack of fresh bread, olive oil, etc that I’d expect at an Italian fare.

Con Amore offered one of the most enjoyable dining experiences Ive had in years. The service was impeccable. Alfredo was a true master as the host of our meal, his attentiveness and marvelous sense of humor seemed effortless as he deftly provided us with the perfect combination of attention and privacy. The delightful ambiance of the space itself is refreshing in its intimacy and style. A far cry from the sterile atmosphere of nearby eateries. The food was outstanding. Period. Full Stop. The quality met and then exceeded the fare from higher priced establishments like Marios in Riverside. I cannot recommend this place enough.

Con Amore is a fantastic little restaurant. The food was amazing. There were four in our group and everyone agreed that this is the best Italian restaurant around. We had gnocchi, ravioli, chicken Marsala and filet mignon and every one of them was excellent. The owner was very kind and a joy to talk and joke around with. Our waiter was great too. We all had a really good time and will be back soon. It was kind of hard to find but we had gone to the wrong shopping center. It is right next to the theater in The Crossings shopping center.

At first the wait was a little longer than what we were told at first we thought about leaving and going somewhere else since we were on a time restraint. But glad we stayed our waitress Goiga and her father the owner Alfredo welcomed us right away. Alfredo gave us a run down of the menu and Goiga gave us recommendations. The whole made us feel at home. Any chance they got they stopped to talked to us it really felt like if I was a relatives home. Now the food I am not Italian but I love Italian food and this was by far the best Italian I have had. From the appetizers to the dessert.

While visiting Toms Farm we found this place on Google maps and decided to try it out. When we arrived it was a little hard to find, (not from here) but once we were inside it was a great experience. We were greated by a young man who was very nice and polite and did not seem like he was at all trying to be like at some restaurants. He was genuine. We let him know it was our first time and he explained the menu and answered all of our questions. As far as the food..... This probably just became our favorite Italian restaurant. They were speaking Italian in the restaurant and there was an older lady in the back cooking. It felt like a genuine authentic experience. We had the penne arrabiata and the veal marsala with a caprese appatizer. Omg. .. this was by far the best arrabiata i have ever had. Not heavy at all but so full of flavor. The marsala was excellent as well with great taste. The caprese has fresh mozzarella and fresh sun dried tomatoes. Oh and the no bake cherrt almond cheesecake. Wow. This place is a must try. Who would have known Corona had the best Italian food.

Going back tonight with neighbors who have never been.Told them to expect a wait because they dont take reservations and its not a huge place.Our last time was just great. They had Nebiolo wine which I dont often find in a restaurant. They made a request meal after checking with the chef about ingredient availability, (spaghetti carbonara), and she made it! They suggested I call day before if Im looking for something not normally on the menu and they would do their best to accommodate... how great is that!Service was very attentive even while waiting for my special meal.My wifes meal was on the menu and we both agreed this was a very special place.UPDATE: Neighbors were greatly impressed with everything, service, menu selections, and the meals. My wife and I agreed with their assessment in, this, our return trip.

The most amazing Italian fine dining experience for a date or going out with friends and family. The authenticity of the pasta and sauces are beyond flavorful. My party of four order a verity of dinners. From pasta, chicken and fish. Tasting all four there wasnt one I liked more than the other. You just cant make a mistake. Every item on the menu will put a smile on your face. Wanting every fork full never to end. Lucky for me my fish was such a nice size I couldnt finish it. I get to enjoy it all over again. So very happy our friends introduced us to this wonderful place. One more thing. The staff the staff, OMG. They made us all feel like we were the only ones in the restaurant. Even with all the tables full. Con Amore ristorante deserves a Michelin Star.

Everything was absolutely perfect. From the authentic Italian food to the authentic chef and waiters.It was a Saturday at 12:30pm. There were seven of us. They serve bread w balasamic & olive oil while you wait. We had Lasagna della Bolognesa, Spagetti Carbonara, pumkin stuffed raviolis, calamari appetizer, and I dont recall the names of the other dishes. Not one of us had any complaints about our dish (They even come around and top your dish w Fresh Parmigiano, if you wish).Chef came out and said hello and when we left, kissed us goodbye. Very friendly staff! We were well taken care off.Dishes were between 18 and 32, but worth EVERY penny. You will not be disappointed.

We went to a 4 pm Sunday movie at Edwards and saw the restaurant off to the side. What an opportune decision. We went in about 6:30 pm when the restaurant had only two other parties. I am glad we did as we got great service and attention. As they filled up, the service kept up, albeit at a rushed pace. I am quite appreciative of the personal attention we got for our simple meals. Everything on the menu looked enticing.We got the pumpkin ravioli and the short rib ravioli in porcini mushroom sauce. This has got to be the best porcini mushroom sauce Ive ever had. The great tasting warm bread was reordered to help sop up what was left on the plate.Desert was a chocolate torte creation that looked like fudge and felt quite solid when using a fork to cut off a piece. But wow! It felt light when slowly dissolving in my mouth and pleasing every tastebud I possess. Hows that for a visual?I definitely look forward to the next movie and opportunity to try out the other items on the menu.

What a wonderful evening we had at this family owned Italian Ristorante. It was as if I stepped into my grandmothers kitchen. Yes, this is an authentic Italian kitchen you taste it in every bite. Indulge in their varied wine list or bar drinks. Try something new on the menu or one of my favorites Lasagna alla Bolognese. The ambiance is warm, cozy and the lighting is soft. The service is spot on, the waiters answer any questions and make suggestions as well. Enjoy! A Salute

Came in for dinner and tables from lunch hadnt been reset...no big deal I guess. Alfredo the chef was very personable and very proficient in the kitchen. Food was cooked well but the flavor profiles were amiss and muddled. Both our entrees were overly/bathed in oil. Also, half bar serves wine and doesnt have other spirits.

Con Amore is an exciting addition to the Crossing’s Shopping Center in Corona. Opened in January of 2016, it is a new and inspired restaurant offering authentic Italian fare. The owner’s Donna and Alfredo immerse themselves into making your dining experience very special. I definitely felt like breaking into singing Amore after each taste. My favorites include: Arugula salad, Lobster ravioli with a flavorful sauce, and the Meat penne pasta. This is a restaurant that you simply must try. I know that once you do, you will be thinking about coming again and again. It is wonderful to see the passion of this family and their desire to create good food in a warm and friendly atmosphere.

Went to this reaturant with friends on Saturday waited a really long time for a table that was just sitting there empty thinking Well cant be much longer. They took forever to seat us! Ordered a latte it came to the table Luke Warm, Had to send it back. Could not discern the lasagna noodles they were so over cooked they turned back to flour paste. The sauce had a very cinnamon flavor,who puts cinnamon in meat sauce. I tasted the food from the plates of my friends, not good. I think everything must be frozen reheated food. My friends spaghetti tasted like Chef Boy Ardee from a can.Even his pasta was over cooked. Why cant restaurants cook themselves any more?

We are officially in love with this place!

You would almost think chain but they are so far from that.Their food is so balanced and they have kept the flavors true to the food.(My mouth is salivating like crazy right now.)This could be my fav Italian restaurant I have ever had the pleasure of eating at.Thank you to all the crew and owners for being so attentive.FYI .. this is NOT fast food.. this is how food should be prepped and your tastebuds will be so happy.We cant wait to come backagain with more family and friends!ThanksChris, Stephanie and lil Jasmine.

Im not gona lie, being in Corona I thought this was going to be a tacky little hole in the wall but it was lunch with grandma and I knew she would like it. I was 100% wrong. It has a great feel when you walk in. Beautiful wood bar, open steel and glass kitchen. But they added their own flare using what has to be either their own art or someone they know because the many pieces around the restaurant look similar.

Con Amore finally gives Corona an exceptional Italian restaurant. And this is truly a family affair: wife and husband in the kitchen, nephew and his wife out front. Service is outstanding! With Alfredo (the owner/husband) helping with the service; explaining the dishes, showing his love for his customers and for the show they are delivering there.We had Buratta and a Salumi platter for appetizers. It was my wifes first exposure to this level of Italian food, and she loved the Buratta and Rosemary ham.Entrees were Shrimp Risotto with Lobster Sauce and Veal Saltimbocca. The rice came the perfect Al Dente, plentiful, properly cooked shrimp with a rich sauce. The Veal was the most flavorful Ive had in decades: the proper combination of veal loin, prosciutto and sage-butter sauce were full-flavored individually and in combination.We also had dessert (Cannoli and Limoncello cake) that were the best examples of these weve had from anywhere.Needless to say, weve found a new, favorite local place.

Mmmmmmmm!!!!! Delizioso!!! Started off with fresh, warm bread with olive oil & balsamic dip (which I didnt need, but kept eating). Then I had the Donna salad, which was very good! With spinach, fig, shaved parmesan cheese and olive oil ...THEN the Lasagna, which was so different than any lasagna that Ive ever had. It was made with spinach lasagna noodles. So tasty & delicious!!! Cant stop saying how tasty the meat was, and the cheese was so creamy. I didnt want to stop eating it, but I would explode if I continued! Definitely, a redo!!! Friendly staff, beautiful atmosphere and did I mention we were served by the chef, which is also the owner? ....such a treat!! The food is definately made and served with love. Arrivederci Xoxo

This is the best Italian restaurant outside of Italy. Donna and Alfredo are the very best chefs and hosts and the menu is perfecto.We love this place to sit, relax, enjoy a glass of vino and eat amazing food.

We will ent there for lunch yesterday (Friday) and the hours on the window say 11-2 and there were employees inside but the closed sign was on the door, no explanation and when we knocked on the door, the employees ignored us. Will never go back, so rude! The least they could do, if they decided to close on a day when they were normally open, is post a notice on the door or answer the door when we knocked and simply explain! Its called common courtesy!

This place didn’t even let my family in, I don’t suggest eating here. The manager and staff were whispering here and they literally made an excuse and didn’t let us sit to eat. Another family comes in and they let them sit and eat there (they’re white). This place is racist!!! They didn’t serve us food just because of what religion we practice! RACIST PLACE!

Wine, bread, salad, pasta and lemoncello cake.Everything was really good.Pesto pasta was really well made. Salad was very flavorful bits of pear and the seasoning was perfect. Bread was plentiful. The dessert was divine. I recommend purchasing a bottle of wine to compliment your mealAtmosphere was nice and the waite staff was pleasant. A wonderful Saturday night dinner.

Food was good but it took over an hour to get it on a slow night. The drink/wine select is bad. Its hard to move around the restaurant. And the bread they serve is plain.

Very good food. However, if you come late on a busy night they tend to be out of a few items which could be a testament to thier daily fresh food so it wasnt to much of a bother to me.

Very bad service, after reading all these GOOD review we thought it would have a good experience at this place, but there was a hair on my food, they dont have pizza or lasagna, some waitresses are rude, and they are expensive! We are not comming back to this place im sure there several more place where you can have the same food but better quality and better service than here for the same price or cheaper.

This place used to be a gem. We hadnt been there in a while, and it has totally changed. The wait staff is unprofessional and rude. Our server asked if everything was ok? I said no and she replied Im so sorry then turned and walked away. There was no attempt to remedy the situation.
