Cheese ravioli
Bridget L.

I was very disappointed that you can't get the pizza or calzone for dine in dinners. But that being said we sat outside, it was covered and very pleasant, it was quiet and we had a nice breeze. Our waitress was very inattentive and almost rude at first, she had a bunch of tables so I kinda understood until I heard her at all other tables and they way she talked to them, she was nicer later on but never asked for refills on my wine, or even how the food was. The food was okay, not outstanding just okay the bread they give was warm and delicious though. The dessert was okay, they make it look pretty but you can tell it's all premade, and they should throw in a little whipped cream. I think I'll stick to take out from here.

We stumbled upon this restaurant when we dropped off our son at college. It's a cute cafe with outdoor seating as well as indoor seating. The outdoor seating is inviting and beautiful. The food was fresh and delicious as well as reasonably priced! Our waitress was super friendly and attentive. We loved the food and service so much that we went back twice!

Is the chicken parm thin and crispy?

The chicken parm is our favorite dish. The chicken is not thin it is a pretty good size breast and the breading isn't crispy. The portion is large and there marinara sauce is amazing !

We originally decided to come here because we saw someone's post on social media about a tomahawk…read morespecial they had gotten here. Unfortunately, they weren't offering it when we went, but that was honestly on us for not calling ahead and double-checking since the post we saw was a little older. First off, I HIGHLY recommend making a reservation here because this place is insanely busy! We actually got really lucky. I called and they were able to squeeze us in because when I looked online, the only reservations available were much later in the evening, and with a toddler that just doesn't work for us. We were seated pretty quickly and didn't have much of a wait at all. The lobby and decor are beautiful. I loved all the meats in the refrigerators and the fresh vegetables on display. It really gives you that authentic Italian restaurant feel. Our waitress was also absolutely lovely. She was so accommodating, polite, made sure we had everything we needed, and was great with our toddler. Now the food... I ordered a red sangria and when I tell you this was probably one of the best red sangrias I've ever had, I am NOT exaggerating. It was made perfectly. If I didn't have my toddler with me, I probably would have had a few of them They bring out two different types of bread, which I thought was such a nice touch. One was more of a garlic/focaccia-style bread and the other was a warm Italian bread that tasted like it had just come out of the oven. I personally preferred the warm Italian bread. Their olive oil dipping mixture was also delicious. And the fact that they give you TWO different breads for free is just amazing. My husband ordered the veal Parm with pink vodka sauce and I ordered the chicken Parm. I had to try his sauce and WOW. Their pink vodka sauce is SO good. Not every restaurant gets pink vodka sauce right, and I've definitely had some that were awful but this place has it down pat. Seriously, so good. The chicken Parm was really good too. I loved their sauce, and the chicken was nice and thin, which I prefer. I personally like my chicken Parm a little crispier, but it was still really, really good. Based on everything we tried, I would definitely recommend the veal Parm. Honestly, everything coming out to the other tables looked amazing, so there are definitely a lot of things I want to try next time. I might get something different instead of the chicken Parm just because there are so many things that looked good. My husband also had the apple tart which he enjoyed. Overall, we really enjoyed our experience and will definitely be back. Next time I'm calling ahead about that tomahawk though!

We had a great experience at Luciano's on a Friday night in September. It was my first time here…read moreand I was very impressed. The place is huge and each room decorated just a bit differently. We enjoyed looking at the murals and the photos on the walls. Our waitress, Donna, was fantastic and very attentive. She brought us sourdough, another type of bread and an oil mixture when we were first seated. They had about ten dinner specials the night we were there, all sounded good. I ended up sticking to the regular menu and ordered pollo alla scarpariello. It was very tasty and huge. I brought at least half home with me to eat the next day. My husband ordered the halibut special. He said it was really delicious. My son ordered the bolognese, which he ate but didn't care for the creaminess of it. One thing I will note is that I wish they had a better selection of wines by the glass. They had a great list of bottles of wines including some super Tuscans , which I love. The wines by the glass list was lacking though. I was the only one at the table drinking wine so I wasn't going to order a bottle. Overall a great experience and we are looking forward to returning.

Before visiting Vilorio's, I had heard mixed reviews on the quality and service. That is why when…read moremy husband and I took my parents here last weekend, we were pleasantly surprised! On a Saturday around 6:30pm we were able to be seated immediately. Our server promptly brought over water and answered any questions we had on the extensive drink menu. Everyone was happy with their drinks, including my mom who got the wine "tasting". For appetizers we ordered the bruschetta (garlicky and delicious), and the scallops which were in one of the best sauces I have ever tasted. The food continued to exceed expectations with dinner- I had the tortellini of which I ate every bite, my husband had the veal Marsala which also had a nice sauce, and my parents both had the lemon shrimp which they raved about. The only room for improvement I could have seen was a little more promptness once we were given the bill (by that point we were stuffed and ready to lay down haha), and quicker drinks (even with the restaurant being half full, drinks still took upwards of 10 minutes). We will definitely be returning to Vilorio's and are excited to try their sister restaurant next door.

Not a ton of people so our food came out super quick. Started off with the wedge salad. It was topped with a nice creamy blue cheese and plenty of bacon. We also ordered the short rib with cajun shrimp, risotto, and broccoli. This was on their specials menu, but was told they usually have short ribs available if it isn't on the specials menu. Short ribs were nice and tender, the risotto was perfectly cooked, and the shrimp had a nice kick to them. I'm hoping they are consistent with the food and the service and that this wasn't just a fluke. Fingers crossed. I'll definitely be back to try more of their dishes. The menu had so many yummy options on there. Finally, high five to our server, Marley. She was fantastic.

The sweet, smoky flavor, mustardy goodness isn't something I've found done as well anywhere else. And the fish itself was cooked perfectly. They paired the fish with the heartiness of the harvest grain side dish you see pictured. It was a huge serving, and I ate the whole thing because it was amaaaazing. My waitress was lovely and efficient, and I also didn't feel rushed. What made it a four star experience rather than 5 stars for me was the ambiance. The music was horrible--like 1980's big hair band type music. It was such a bizarre contrast to the rest of the upscale ambiance, which looked & felt more like a steakhouse. To my chagrin, it wasn't just one "off" song either...the awful selections kept coming throughout the meal. The music gave it more of a dive bar vibe, and it was so completely offputting that I left sooner than I otherwise would have. It honestly gives me pause when I think about coming again. And that's a real shame because I'd like to bring others here to share the amazing eats. I may try it again on another day. But if the music is the same, I'll be walking right back out the door.

It is about reading the table, adding personality, knowing when to make a recommendation, and making the entire experience feel effortless. Olivia did all of that exceptionally well. Davio's has a real asset on the team with her. Fantastic experience, and very much appreciated.

We're not sure whether only part of our order was prepared and the rest sat waiting, or whether our food may have been someone else's order that was brought back out rather than discarded. Overall, the service was inattentive, the food temperature was disappointing, and the experience was not what we expected. Unfortunately, we won't be rushing back.
