We held an April wedding reception for 40 in the Tramanto room and had a fabulous experience. The space was large enough for us to scoot the tables back a little bit after dinner for some dancing. Lisa was very responsive and easy to work with throughout the planning process. Our servers, Ivan and Benny, were friendly and helpful. Favorite dishes included the Risotto al Pomodoro appetizer and the Ravioli con Spinaci. The dessert table was also a big hit. Our servers provided plenty of take-home containers for guests to pack up extras. My husband has several dietary restrictions that they accommodated for each course. He thought the gluten and dairy-free roasted veggie flatbread was outstanding. We live out of state and were planning remotely so I'm attaching some pictures in hopes that they help someone else. The newly redecorated space is lovely.

Came to celebrate my graduating university, and Ivan and Benny made it a lovely experience. The food was great (I had the carbonara, and it was perfect!). Ivan was very knowledgeable when it came to the Gluten free options, but also admitted when he wasn’t sure about something and checked with the chef, which is exactly what I would hope for. Benny was prompt and polite with any of our needs. 10/10 would go again! Thanks Ivan and Benny!

I have been coming here for many years. Again My valued customer signature excellent as always. Ivan and Benny were especially attentive and warm. They typically have a menu filled with everything that I would order and enjoy. Gluten-free pasta was unusually good as well. The regular menu items are regular regularly being enhanced by new options. Just go.
