    This was a pretty solid place. I ordered the Italian margarita and it came in a very interesting…read moreand cool cup! The heirloom tomato appetizer was tasted reall fresh and the sauce was good. I built my own pasta with uncle Arthur's sausage, mushroom truffle and the wide noodles. It was really good and a good serving size. I saw another table order the 5 foot long stada board and it looked really good, I'll have to try that next time. I skipped desserts but will have to try that next time as well. The decor was nice, service was prompt. Our server was attentive and always refilled waters when they were low. Sometimes parking out front can be a little hard but there's more parking in the back.

They had the fans and misters on so it was very comfortable. I chose my own dish and did Tony's steak meatballs with truffle mushroom sauce and strozzapreti pasta. The meatballs were 10/10, so yummy! It all was so good. The service was great and prompt despite our large group. They were even able to split the checks up for us. I went to the other side of the restaurant where they have gelato and other desserts. I got a couple of cannolis and they were delicious! I didn't try the gelato but they looked really good, I'll definitely try it next time!

    Visited for the first time on a Saturday afternoon as part of a group of about 40 people for an end…read moreof the year luncheon celebration. I was really impressed!! First, accommodating a party that large can't be easy, but the staff handled everything smoothly and provided great service throughout the meal. What stood out most to me was the food. I ordered the vegetarian pizza (with tomato sauce vs cheese to make it more vegan friendly). It was topped with artichokes, hearts of palm, and olives, and it was absolutely delicious!!! The flavors were well-balanced, and everything was seasoned perfectly. Between the excellent service and the outstanding food, this was a fantastic first experience. I'll definitely be returning!

We had bacon dates to start. These were tasty but not quite like we imagined. They were sweet and salty which was great. The blue cheese stuffing didn't quite jump out like we expected. For wine, my wife likes sweet wine. She tried the Riesling first, then the Moscato. Moscato was hands down her winner, it was sweeter. For me, I tried the Murphy Goode red blend and I enjoyed it a lot. Good balance, complexity, and smoothness. For the main course my wife had the Pasta Bolognese. It came with rigatoni noodles. The sauce was nice and thick and coated the noodles really well. It had a big robust flavor but wasn't overpowering. I had the Chicken Saltimbocca. The sauce was a bit on the sweet side for my preference due to what tasted like a bit of balsamic, but I still enjoyed it. The chicken was well cooked and tender. We tried a cannoli for dessert. The thing was huge! Shell was thick and crunchy. Filling was moderately sweet with a subtle brightness to it (like a touch of lemon). Ends were dipped in chopped pistachio.

My husband had an Old Fashion and I had a Raspberry Margarita. The margarita was frozen and so good. I am gonna be drinking that all summer!!! It was reminiscent of ZTejas Chambord margaritas. If you know...you know. For food, I ordered the seafood ravioli special. It was so good with lots of extra lobster on top. I was full at the end of the night and the flavors were so amazing. If you like seafood and cheese, grab this. My husband got the Cannoli de Carne. Wowza, this was so flavorful and delicious. Makes me wanna try the lasagna next time I stop in. Which will be soon!!! We ended the night with a shot of Limoncello and that baby was good. I be they make an amazing Limoncello Martini here. Excited to check this place out for HH, 5:00pm to 6:30.

The owner Max and his staff always make you feel like family. The bartender, Jamie is always friendly and if you're lucky enough, he will save you the last piece of lasagna! Shout out to Martha and Lena, the two waitresses we usually get. They are super friendly and make the dining experience at Arriverderci well worth it!

    I'm so surprised I haven't reviewed Nello's earlier. This is one of our Go To places and has been…read morefor decades. Love that Nello's is family-owned. We tend toward their Veggie or Deluxe Combo with thin (if 12") or original crust. Their gluten free crust option is great too. Love their spinach salad or garden salad with ham. Hubby loves their honey mustard. Nello's is a great option for families or casual fun night out.

It's been probably 20…read moreyears since I've been to a Nello's, so I was beyond excited to see if it lived up to the nostalgia. It definitely did! This location is tucked into a strip of shops and restaurants, making it easy to find with plenty of parking. We arrived just before the lunch rush, so we were able to snag a great spot and were seated immediately. Our server was incredible. I didn't catch her name because it was a bit loud, but she was an absolute pro --friendly, bubbly, and incredibly patient while we navigated the vast menu. Our drinks never even hit the halfway mark before she was there with a refill. If she isn't actually loving her job, she deserves an Oscar for that performance! We both opted for personal deep-dish pizzas --Margherita for Mom and BBQ Chicken for me. The crust was the star of the show: crispy, flavorful, and perfectly chewy. My only tiny critiques? The chicken chunks on the BBQ pizza were a bit big; I think smaller bites would have integrated better with the toppings. Also, the cheese seemed to cool down quite fast, which gave it a slightly different texture toward the end. However, the BBQ sauce was delicious and the onions provided the perfect bite. Also, quick pro tip: They do have a restroom! It's tucked around a corner in a spot that looks like a dead end, but don't panic -- it's there lol. I absolutely recommend Nello's. Between the full bar, the outstanding service, and the very reasonable prices (my pizza was all of $12!), it's a total win. We'll definitely be back!
