    Penne Vodka

    I went on a Saturday night with some girl friends. We made reservations a few weeks in advance. When we arrived, there was valet parking. The place was so busy! It is extremely loud inside which makes it difficult to hear if you have trouble hearing. The service was very good, but then at the end I don't know if they were giving us time to sit and not bother us but no one checked in with us after dessert to see if we wanted the check. We had to call the waiter over for it. To start they gave you some cheese and little things to munch on which was enjoyable. For apps, we split the crab meat (which didn't look good but tasted delicious) and eggplant rollienti which was good. For entrees, we all had pasta dishes which everyone enjoyed. The menu is large and I think there is something for everyone there.

    Went out tonight with my boyfriend for our one year anniversary and it couldn't have been more perfect. Walking in the atmosphere was inviting and the decor is beautiful. We were immediately greeted and sat down (good thing we were there before dinner rush, around 6:30). Our server was lovely, checking in on us and giving us good recommendations, btw this was our first time. Every food item we chose was delicious, I was pleasantly surprised by the minestrone which was by far my favorite dish of the night. never once did we feel rushed and we for sure took our time. 10/10 experience, i can't wait to come back when i'm in town

    We enjoyed our lunch here today. Beautiful decorated restaurant inside and out. Wait staff really good Started with fried calamari i have to say calamari were so soft and tender. But they weren't fried crispy enough and little too oily. They gave me a pasta fagioli. Was kinda bland and boring but not bad . I ordered veal parmigiana omg the veal was super tender and a nice size. Pasta was little chalky and over done. Shared a slice of carrot cake. Cake was good Coffee was very good Plenty parking in front and back. Prices are not to bad too Def will be coming back.

    Tuna Tartare

    A friend and I went here for dinner on a Friday night, we walked in and were immediately greeted with the smell of garlic, which is a major plus for me. The place had a lot of tables, and lightly lit for ambiance, which I appreciated, very romantic and cozy. Bread and a small charcuterie plate were brought to us, perfect portion and self-serve oil and balsamic for the bread, great! We got the Tuna Tartare appetizer, which was delicious and split the caesar salad, which was also very good. For dinner we split the the Pappardelle with mushrooms and Rigatoni Bolognese. Both were very tasty and well portioned. I would definitely go back!!

    Veal Saltimbuca Dinner
    Arrielle S.

    We've gone to Dimora a few times for large family lunches, but this time was off. We went for a late lunch early dinner with a group of 19. One of the waiters was friendly and fun, but the other helping our table was rather rude and I'm not sure why. My husband and I got the hot antipasto to start and while it was delicious it was comically small. It came with 1 scallop, 1 shrimp and 4 baked clams. To feel whole on the actual dish I needed e make sure to use the bread they give at the table just to sponge up the juices. For the price I'm not sure what this was. For my entree I got the Veal San Remo and it was good the mushrooms were fresh on top which I loved and the escarole was cooked perfect. The veal itself was cooked perfect as well, but the sauce/gravy was very rich to the point where my tastebuds gave up and I couldn't eat anymore. My husband got the veal with the prosciutto and said it was insanely salty, while the potato that accompanied it needed salt. So there was some imbalance. Others at the table got calamari for starters and said it was rubbery, and I heard that the roast chicken I was told was dry. Rather disappointing for this place as we remember it being really good years ago. For the price of the dishes we'd rather go somewhere else.

    Aperol Spritz
    Kelli S.

    I came here for NYE dinner with a group of friends. We were six in total. My first experience and it was a bit chaotic which I understand given the holiday. We did have a reservation for 7:45PM but weren't seated till 8:15PM. Not a big deal, but noted. We were sat upstairs which was great because it was a bit quieter. Some of us ordered drinks, I had an Aperol Spritz which was fine. Everyone was satisfied thus far. Apps arrived, I had the Clams Oreganata also fine. The main courses took really long to come out and our waiter was very kind and offered us drinks on the house. Three of us took him up on the offer. That was nice. At this point a DJ started playing downstairs and the music sounded great! We went downstairs to dance whilst we awaited our main course. A few dances later and our food had arrived. Yay! My discontent was with my main course. I'd ordered the Stuffed Jumbo Shrimp & Risotto. 3 stuffed shrimp come stuffed with crab meat and vegetables alongside risotto. The problem for me was- it wasn't risotto as I know it to be. Risotto is meant to be creamy and this was rice. I asked the waiter about it and he said "this is risotto." Oh my I replied - this is not the type of risotto I'm accustomed to. Ok, no problem- just wish I knew that. I would've ordered something else. This is rice. He went and got the manager on his own - I didn't ask him to. The manager comes over and asks what the problem is. I explain again that this isn't risotto to me. He says, yes it is- it says so on the bag. Proceeds to say, I swear on my children that's what the bag says. Anyway, the dish is really about the stuffed shrimp not the risotto. As he is saying this - he's so close to my face, he ends up spitting in my eye! He said oh I'm so sorry. Great, now I've completely lost my appetite. I end up not eating my food minus the first few bites I had and ended up giving the remaining shrimp to my friend. No one ate the rice. As you can see in my photo below, the rice is standing straight up. That would be difficult to do if it were a creamy risotto. I did not want my evening to be ruined because of the food & eye incident so I tried to brush it under the rug. After we paid, we went downstairs for some dancing. That was the best part of the night. Great DJ and patrons who really were delightful. Another note is- the bathrooms were pretty dirty. I understand on such a busy night how that's difficult to control. Still needs addressing. Dress was upscale (maybe for the night) everyone looked fabulous. Valet parking. Lovely coat check staff and overall staff were very nice and professional. Would I go back??? Maybe, but I know now to ask questions like "is your risotto creamy?"

    Food (4.4) Service (4.9) Ambulance (4.6) I had an opportunity to enjoy lunch with a work peer this week. We sat outside so I may need to adjust my rating after the next visit, but gave them the benefit since outdoors was very nice with well appointed tables and silverware. I always use chicken parmigiana as my comparison dish and they didn't disappoint whatsoever. A Huge piece of tender and juicy meat with mixed vegetables roasted in a light oil. Later that night my son very much enjoyed the half I couldn't finish. The service was superb, very polite with a perfect amount of attention since we were there to mostly talk business. We enjoyed an cappuccino and espresso which were also superb. I will return soon for pleasure and sure to update this review with more details.

    Lychee martini
    Jordan C.

    This place was highly recommended to me by a few locals, so I knew I had to try it! It was extremely packed for Thursday night the ambience was very casual, but yet a lot of people. My friend and I start off with a lychee martini and a passion fruit margarita, wow both Asians were strong but tasty! Then we started with the burrata appetizer it came with a fig jam on a crostini and tiny tomatoes, so delicious. Next we had a shrimp and avocado salad, packed with flavor I highly recommend this if you like seafood. Then we had truffle pasta with mushrooms on top, what a nice touch so delicious. We then had chicken that was made up special for us it had a lot of sauce which was so amazing and light it also came with string beans and roasted potatoes. Finally we had a baked seabass with clams , i'm a sucker for Tableside presentation and it also tasted amazing! So when the night we had some pistachio gelato, so creamy and delicious. If you were in the Norwood area I recommend stopping by!

    Strawberry and banana flambé
    Susie R.

    Everything from the service, to the food was superb. The service was extraordinary they are so attentive and nice always smiling. The food is beyond amazing. You can tell it's fresh and made with love. High quality ingredients were definitely used. We got the burrata app and some pasta dishes. Mine has shrimp and crab and it was maybe the best pasta dish I've ever had. The strawberry banana flambé was out of this world also. Ambiance was great too. Not overly decorated. Just a nice little spot. Highly recommend

    We had the most delicious dinner here for 12! Everyone loved their meal more than the other. I had the sole franchisee. Cooked and seasoned to perfection, the vibe here is right. Elegant and fun! Cocktails are delicious. A must for Italian food and seafood

    Ricotta cheesecake‼
    Teresa M.

    From the moment we entered where we were greeted by owner Gino & wife who by the way can debone a Branzino like no one‼ Our food was all perfect I had the soft-shell crabs absolutely delicious. We all had different fish dishes done to perfection. It does get a little loud on a Saturday night but service and attention was perfect.

Foremost, the restaurant has a beautiful atmosphere with lots of greenery and elegant lighting. Our waiter provided top tier service throughout the night. The appetizers we ordered were perfect shareable bites and so delicious. The homemade focaccia was light and crispy. Perfectly toasted! This comes at the start of your meal for all of the tables. I loved the fried calamari, burrata and prosciutto, and the pear salad. I was most intrigued with the mussel flatbread appetizer. It was topped with a light buttery sauce and garlic. Very good! The meatballs were also a standout for me. In addition to an amazing start to my meal, I loved the cocktail options. From various spritz choices to Negronis, you can tell the cocktail menu was carefully crafted. Verana is known for the best chicken parmigiana. Not only did this dish deliver, but the portion size was unreal. Some of my dining party finished it. However, I have amazing leftovers for today. You have an option to get a side of homemade pasta. I went with the spaghetti. All pasta dishes are made from scratch. Other honorable mentions include the pasta normica and bolognese. Moving on to the sweet dessert options! The cappuccino's had a nice and bold coffee flavor. The pistachio gelato and apple tart were music to my ears! So fresh and really hits any sweet tooth. The tiramisu had a nice pairing of coffee flavor and cinnamon. My first dining experience at Verana will definitely not be my last. I can't stop talking about all of the incredible dishes that my family and I tried. Thank you Verana for an incredible meal!

There was a large variety of slices offered. I only problem I had was choosing because I wanted to explore them all. Caprese Slice: This slice is smothered in pesto sauce and topped with feta and chunks of tomato. You will definitely need a fork and knife to finish this wedge. Drink Angry Nonna Slice: This slice is cooked in vodka sauce, topped with pepperoni cups, and drizzled in hot chili oil. While the other slices have an appearance identical to an isosceles triangle, the nonna looks like a scalene triangle. Regardless, it is the taste, not the shape, that matters. Both slices were a home run! They had excellent undercarriage and no flop, which is why they were very crispy. The ratio of sauce was proportioned perfectly and they were loaded with toppings. I was also pleased they each slice was served on a glass plate. The interior has a nice ambiance. A small casual style dining area is off to the left of the pizzeria. The main dining room is located on the right side, where customers can order three course dinners and bring their own bottle of alcohol. Owner Andrew made me feel right at home. He welcomed me into the restaurant and I am really looking forward to returning for a nice dinner in the main dining area. #cousinspizza #cousinspizzanorwood #drunkangrynonnaslice #drunkangrynonna #capreseslice

Same with the calamari, the outer layer seemed undercooked, would have preferred it to be more crispy. For entree I had the mazon burger. It came with burrata cheese and roasted peppers, two ingredients that do not go well in a burger together, in my opinion. The patty was also extra large and lacked flavor. I was very disappointed.
