From the moment we walked in, the service was truly outstanding. The staff went above and beyond to make sure our guest of honor and all the attendees were comfortable, attentive to every single detail without ever being intrusive. And the food? Phenomenal! Every dish was incredibly fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented--our guests are still raving about how great the food was. If you are looking for a place with an elegant atmosphere, top-tier Italian cuisine, and exceptional hospitality for a special celebration, this is it. Thank you to the team for making this day so memorable!

From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with "Welcome home" and seated. Bobby was our waiter and he was knowledgeable, polite, and offered my guests choices and recommendations on our orders.

The Filet Mignon Crostini, a special on the menu, was fantastic! Each of our entrees was perfectly prepared and delicious. Desserts were also wonderful. The service at Savini is always exceptional, as it was last evening. This is my favorite restaurant, especially if we have a special occasion to celebrate! Grateful!!!

The food here can be hit or miss, but overall I would give it 3 stars as a solid Italian restaurant…read morewith a predictable menu. However, for those who have lauded the ambiance, my two most recent visits offered a less than optimum dining experience. Downstairs, the main room is attractive, overcrowded, and a bit warm and cramped. Service on the first floor was first rate. NOW A WARNING; do not, under any circumstances, agree to sit on the second floor unless you are planning to attend a boisterous party with junior staff unfamiliar with the menu or their job. Most recently we couldn't hear or understand the apparently brand new waiter as he labored unsuccessfully through trying to read or explain the specials, so we stuck to the regular menu. The zuppa de pesce sauce was overly acidic and the fish was overly done. When told this, the waiter assumed a pained wide eyed expression, then smiled and walked away. There were a couple of parties going on upstairs right next to us which the attendees believed meant they could talk loudly while standing up right next to where we were sitting. The rudeness and interference with other diners was completely ignored by the staff. Our evening having been ruined by average food in a deafening environment with inadequate wait staff, we decided that this was not equal to the fine dining experience we expected so we left. If you decide to go (although why you would is a mystery to me) and they try to direct you upstairs (past numerous empty tables that were still empty when we left) depart in haste. Flee. Run away. Don't say you weren't warned.

She wasn't bad but we had to ask twice for bread for our mussels and she finally brought it AFTER we finished them which was such a waste because the mussel sauce was delicious and we wanted to dunk the bread. This was the only negative but it wasn't major issue. We started with the vegan salad which was absolutely outstanding it had chickpeas, fresh avocado. It just was extremely fresh and so tasteful with the dressing. We moved onto the mussels, which were next level amazing they were a different sort of sauce that we've never tried before, and it was outstanding if you like mussels , you must try them. Highly recommend.. Hubby had some sort of a mixed fish dish over risotto. He absolutely loved it. He finished his plate within minutes lol I had the salmon. It was interesting, but I don't think I would get it again. Also, I like my salmon very well done which I had asked them to do and it came out pretty much poached so I couldn't really finish it. I would definitely try something different when we go back again. The pizzas looked amazing and I'm looking forward to trying one of those. I highly suggest a reservation as we had one and within 15 minutes the place was packed

To say the options are plenty does not do service to the vast options of homemade pastas, slow mastered sauces and land and sea delights.
