I'll start with the bottom line: our dinner was ruined by the excessive noise…read more We believe that restaurants that are unable or unwilling to manage unusually disruptive noise levels should not be recommended. We made a reservation for two couples and specifically asked for a quiet table. We were seated in the restaurant's inner dining room, which is supposed to be quieter than the main dining area and bar. Unfortunately, there were two large groups in that room. One group of about 20 people was celebrating a birthday, and another group of five couples was already loud from the moment they arrived. As the evening went on and more alcohol was served, the noise became increasingly unbearable. To their credit, the waitstaff apologized several times on their own initiative for the unusual noise level. However, no action was taken by management to address the situation. Instead, drinks continued to be served, and the atmosphere became impossible for anyone else to enjoy. Under these circumstances, the quality of the food became secondary. What should have been an enjoyable evening turned into a very frustrating and disappointing experience.

I wanted to say a huge thank you to the event manager Joanna--and her entire team--for doing such a wonderful job on my daughter's bridal shower this past Saturday. Everything was absolutely perfect. The food was delicious and received so many compliments, and the cocktails were fabulous--thank you especially for the signature drink, it was a big hit! The waitstaff did an excellent job, and the bartender was incredible keeping up with all the orders. She made the whole process feel so easy and enjoyable. I can't say enough great things about Neroli's. If you have not eaten here go - if you're looking for a nice venue for an event their private room is so pretty, bright and perfect!

Rosetta's has the most DELICIOUS Italian food around, big portions, and it's not a "foofy" atmosphere or over-priced like many Italian restaurants around Boston and the South Shore.

Carlo is also a really nice guy, and he and his staff did a great job doing a buffet luncheon for my MIL's funeral last weekend. Amazing seafood dishes as well, and try the Tiramisu!

We were approached by two different staff members. After speaking with us, both said they "needed a minute," which didn't make sense given the simple request: a table for three in the bar area. We were then told the bar area was reserved and that parties of three could only be seated in the dining room. We were seated in a tiny booth crammed right next to another family, despite plenty of open space elsewhere. It felt uncomfortable and unwelcoming, especially given how empty the restaurant was. We left without ordering. The experience was frustrating and disappointing. We went across the street to Takara instead and had an excellent meal. Rosetta's didn't give us the time of day, so we won't be giving them another chance.

The staff, managers, server all were very nice and accommodating. Food came out fast and hot. Also had a very nice conversation with the couple next to us, who had wisdom and knowledge of some history which we could relate to. We ordered the following: - Fritto misto 3/5 for me. The garlic/lemon aioli that was loaded on the bottom of the dish was great just allows u to smear and dip everything into the plate instead of a small dip dish everyone has to share. The calamari and shrimp portion is a nice appetizer size. Crispy yes, but our portion was a bit overcooked. - spaghetti Al limone - perfectly cooked, nice chew and portion. You get 4 jumbo shrimps on the pasta plate. The lemon zest sauce was tasty! Enjoyed this! 5/5 - fennel sausage pizza 5/5 I really enjoy the way they make the pizza, crispy, good bites, fresh and served on the plate with a pair of pizza scissors so you can make your own "slices" loaded with toppings. It was a good thin style. Ample bits of fennel sausage, peppers onions and scallion fresh on top. - limoncello mascarpone cake 5/5 This was a great cap to the meal. Light, the mascarpone was refreshing, the cake was not heavy and the lemon flavor came thru like a champ! Not overly sweet which is a plus for us. Some bakeries make their cakes so sweet, that it all just tastes artificial, the slice here was yummy.

It was super cool to learn that they are Employee owned, and currently working on new restaurant concepts set to open soon. Here's what we ordered: - Shirley temple - fritto misto - fennel sausage pizza - spaghetti al limone - limoncello mascarpone cake Portion sizes were quite generous! Much bigger than what we were expecting, based on photos we looked at. We started off with the fritto misto, which included fried calamari, shrimp, & fried lemon with a lemon aioli to dip. The lemon aioli was spread all over the bottom of the dish instead of in a ramekin. We actually prefer it this way! Loved the lemon aioli and fried lemons. Calamari was not bad; slightly overcooked. On to our entrees! Their pizza is thin & very similar to a flatbread. We enjoyed this a lot! Great flavor and loved that we got to cut it ourselves. Came with a good amount of toppings. The spaghetti was made al dente & came with a creamy lime sauce. You can definitely taste the lime here! This came with 4 big shrimps. We were able to finish everything we ordered at this point... so we decided to get some dessert! We ordered the limoncello mascarpone cake to try & it was delicious! It tasted refreshing and not heavy at all. Overall, we had a great dinner here. Our server was very nice, attentive, and helpful with giving suggestions for what we should order. Checking out was also very easy. They offer QR code scan to pay through Toast, which can be scanned on your receipt bill.

The parking lot was fairly empty for the time of day but I was hopeful in their ability to produce some good Italian food. I was not impressed, but only because my late husband was Napolitano, born and raised and he was the best Italian cook I've experienced. I suppose on some level I am looking for him in whatever I can to feel closer to him. As for the Chateau, I ordered an appetizer of calamari. It was good but too much for me to consume on my own. Then came an order of garlic bread that I didn't think belonged to me. That also came home with me after confirmation that it was delivered to my table by accident. The main dish was eggplant parm. It was ok. Nothing that I would deem remarkable. The sauce was bland and watery, that was clear from the start. The pasta that came with the dish was way over cooked as well. To say my experience was "meh" would be accurate. The wait staff was wonderful though and the restaurant itself was clean and cheery. Maybe I was there on an off day. Maybe another look at a future time would be a good idea.

They have a dining room with plenty of seating and a lounge and bar area with tons of booths and tables as well. It is a huge restaurant. It was a bit too dim for my liking but the food wasn't great either. Our server was pretty great; bubbly, friendly and super helpful, however, she did forget my soup, our drinks and a few other things. The sliced bread loaf was cold and just that, sliced bread. We got the sampler appetizer. The mozzarella sticks were decent, chicken fingers with honey mustard was the best thing we ate there and toasted raviolis were dry and bland. Pizza was soggy but their sausage was tasty. Spaghetti was overcooked and it was in a red sauce that looked creamy and was bland. The twin petite filets were COLD, mashed potatoes barely lukewarm, gravy came out COLD and gelatinous. Only hot item from that meal was the sautéed spinach. I couldn't eat the petite filet meal at all and had to send it back. It felt and looked like it sat out all night as it was a special and they didn't heat it through. The manager was kind to offer me other items from their menu but I was completely done with dinner at that point. I don't recommend this restaurant nor will I ever return.

The Lobster Mac & Cheese was outstanding, honestly better than what I've had at places like Capital Grille. Add in the fresh, delicious bread, and the meal starts off perfectly. I highly recommend the Brandt 14 ounce Aged New York Sirloin; it was easily my favorite dish of the night. And don't leave without trying the New York Cheesecake the perfect ending to an amazing meal! The ambiance of the restaurant was warm, elegant, and inviting, making it a great place for a relaxing dinner. The atmosphere paired perfectly with the excellent food and attentive service, creating an overall upscale dining experience. A special shoutout to our waiter, Quinten L., who provided exceptional service throughout the evening. He promptly cleared our plates after each course and even wiped down the table between meals, which really showed attention to detail. Thank you, Quinten L, for making our dining experience even more enjoyable!

I was attempting to treat my elderly grandmother to a very special meal as I was passing by her…read moreassisted living facility on a work trip and read great reviews about this place. When it comes to steaks, I rarely eat out because I have a paranoia of being let down. I always buy my meat from a butcher and cook them beautifully on a charcoal (yes, if you cook on propane it's not actually grilling - poser) grill. This trip to Amelias reinforced why I shouldn't stray from handling good meat myself. The place itself is cool, my grandmother was very impressed which is honestly all that matters. Of course she was enamored by the bread options and the whipped butter with olive oil was honestly a nice touch. I ordered a bottle of pellegrino and was surprised the waitress never topped me off (get your mind out of the gutter). Whatever, I had to serve my own drink but at a place of that caliber you'd think the wait staff would understand that when a bottle of any sort is purchased they should be asking the diners if they'd like a refill. We ordered the tuna tartare and my grandmother had never even heard of such a dish before. She enjoyed a bite and then I inhaled the rest - yes I am fat and hungry NOT SORRY. We ordered our steaks and I got excited too soon. I can't help but shake my head, I NEVER get steaks out any more because even at steak houses I am most often let down. I am not trying to sound cheap but at $68 a steak I am expecting a melt in your mouth masterpiece (that's what they used to call me back in the day) and honestly the meat we got was a MAJOR let down. Steak alone has it's flavor and this piece was lacking. They overcooked it and it was genuinely tough even with the LITTLE pink they allowed me to enjoy. I was really heartbroken but the only reconciliation for this was that my aged grandmother was ecstatic and this meal wasn't for me, it was an attempt to treat my grandmother to what could be one of her last few really special meals. For her it was and that's the only reason I'm not giving this place two stars.
