It's been some time since I've been to Arpeggio, but all of my experiences have been positive (and…read moredelicious). FYI: Reservations are not available. However, they offer a "waitlist," which can be helpful. Or do we as we do, and just get there as early as 5pm (that's toddler living, baby). Boy did this place fill up around 6:30pm. I typically lean towards the mediterranean options when I dine here, but they really have such a great variety. From pizza, to pasta, salads, or even burgers. We started with the Mediterranean combo platter which came with all the yummies- Humus, Baba Ganush, Tabbouleh, Falafel, Stuffed Grape Leaves & feta (plus, cucumbers for our gluten free diner). All to die for. As for entrees, our tiny queen got chicken fingers and fries- $17 is kinda crazy for a kids meal if I'm being honest, but it's a large portion. I went with the filet souvlaki which was so tasty- especially the tzatziki sauce. My mom went with the leg of lamb platter, and J got a greek salad- add chicken. Enjoyable, all around. For dessert, the tiny queen requested the brownie with vanilla ice cream and the birthday girl (my mom) opted for the lemon cake. Everyone's bellies were very happy by the end. My only complaint are some of the prices and upcharges. $4 add cucumber because someone is gluten free is crazy. Nonetheless, this will not stop us from returning. There are so many options to please everyone!

I saw reviews that staff were unfriendly and I did not even experience a glimpse of that. Everyone was extremely professional, genuine and courteous but not overly involved and fake friendly.( I hate the disingenuous friendly) 2 apps, 2 mains, and dessert was about 115$ so extremely well priced Can't wait to go back and try more!

We'll definitely be back soon.

Everything was flavorful and thoughtfully prepared, and the crispy potatoes were absolutely to die for. While my swordfish came out slightly cold and a tad bland, the quality and taste of the rest of the meal more than made up for it. The service was strong, especially considering how busy New Year's Eve can be. We were taken great care of by who I believe was the manager for the evening, which made the experience feel especially welcoming and well managed. Our server seemed extremely busy, and while we wish he could have been a bit more accommodating, it was clear he was juggling a lot and still handled everything wonderfully. My family comes to Tressini very often and we always look forward to dining here. it's a place we truly enjoy and trust for a great meal. The only things we'd love to see improved are a bit more variety on the menu and more dessert options, as there was a heavy focus on gelato. Overall, another lovely experience, and we'll definitely be back again soon. It was definitely packed for the holiday, but it was not crazy loud to the point where you can't hear yourself so no complaints on the ambiance.

I happened to pass through Ambler and stopped into this trattoria. The menu is very limited--each…read moreweek they offer three pasta dishes, and that's your main selection. If none of those appeal to you, your only alternative is to choose a pasta with a standard sugo (tomato sauce). There are also a couple of sandwich options, but those are limited as well. There's little to no flexibility--if it's not on the menu, they're not likely to accommodate substitutions or custom requests. That said, the two young men I encountered were both professional and not snarky at all in relaying the limitations. It was what it was. I went with rigatoni in sugo, topped with grated Parmesan. The pasta was excellent--perfectly al dente, and the sauce had great flavor and consistency. Authentic and well-prepared. That said, the downsides are hard to ignore. The portion was relatively small, and with a bottle of Italian soda, the total came to $22.58--closer to $30 with tip. There's also no complimentary bread. Focaccia is available for $5, but it didn't look particularly appealing (a bit dark and overly crisp), though I didn't try it. Pros: * Delicious, authentic Italian pasta * Perfect texture and well-balanced sauce * Clean, attractive trattoria setting Cons: * Very limited menu (pasta and a few sandwiches) * No customization or flexibility * Price feels high for the portion size * No complimentary bread Overall, a tasty experience, but the limited menu and value may not work for everyone.

Calling all veal lovers! I know veal isn't for everyone but this was the best dumb luck moment I've…read morehad in quite a while. Like everyone else this time of year we have had our fill of turkey and the fridge was a bit bare. We were considering what was on the way home and my wife suggested Angelos. I immediately thought, hmmm some veal parm takeout would be lovely. So that's what I asked her to get me. This is where it gets interesting. So, Angelos doesn't have your run of the mill veal parmigiana. They have a whole on bone veal chop parmigiana! It's practically the tomahawk steak of veal. I failed to let my phone eat first as I hadn't eaten yet for the day. Let me tell you this was the most delicious and tender veal I have ever had. Crispy brown breading with a delicious red sauce and angel hair pasta. Even the pasta is mixed with sauce as to not stick. It's more than a meal. I have enough leftover for a second serving of happiness. It's not cheap but worth every penny.

Made reservations for 6. Showed up at 5:30 and there were only two full tables. So we asked if we…read morecould be seated early. The hostess said no. I can't seat you until 6. So I'm sitting there for a few and I'm like maybe they misunderstood and they thought I made a res for 6 people not at 6. So I went to clarify with the hostess. She understood and repeated the same thing. So we sat and waited a few more minutes before she had a change of heart and came out to tell us we could be seated now. We didn't leave for probably 45 minutes and not one more person came in. As soon as we sat down the hostess who was also the waitress came over and asked for our order. We of course we weren't ready. We just sat! She seemed frustrated and I was thinking wow this isn't going to be relaxing. The first thing I see on the menu is the sharing up charge. I hate that type of thing. I always like to do family style and share stuff. I want to try every thing if it's a good place. So we got an appetizer which clearly we were going to share. Luckily we did not get the share charge. The bread you get before your meal is so good. Fresh cut garlic and oil drizzled on it. You also get a side salad that was delicious. When they brought the calamari I tried moving the bread closer to me so the waitress(same as the hostess) could put the plate down. She grabbed the bread bowl from me and moved it to the other end of the table. When our actual meals came she couldn't wait to get our plates off the table. We really felt like we were an inconvenience. I thought maybe it was just a cultural thing. Or maybe she's just overworked since she was the hostess and waiting on 3 tables. Brought us boxes before we were finished our food. So we were like ok fine. We will just pack up. We were going to get desert but we decided let's just blow this popsicle stand and get something somewhere else. The food here is excellent. I would get take out again but I probably wouldn't suggest a dine in experience. Which is a shame. I don't even really like writing this critical of a review because I don't know what was going on in her life so maybe it was just the day.

Tuesday evening dine-in experience…read more I usually enjoy this restaurant, but today the food was unfortunately below average. The pizza came out very oily, and the pasta--which was $35--was served cold, overly salty, and lacked flavor. The seafood quality and quantity were also disappointing. We ended up taking both dishes to go because we didn't want to waste the food, but we each only had one slice of the pizza. Another issue was the timing: there was about a 20-minute gap between when the pizza and pasta were served, which made the meal feel disjointed. On a positive note, the atmosphere and holiday decorations were beautiful, and our server was friendly and attentive. Overall, though, it was a disappointing experience this time.
