We met some friends here a little over a week ago. Our friends picked the spot, and I have to admit I wasn't super excited about trying this restaurant just because there aren't a ton of reviews and it's pricey. However, I have not been able to stop thinking about the gnocchi since eating it. It was the best gnocchi I've ever had by a long shot. I didn't realize I loved gnocchi until I had the ricotta gnocchi carbonara. My understanding is it's made with ricotta instead of potatoes which would explain why I'm obsessed with it. It was so fluffy and had some cheese in the center and was beyond perfect.We also had the pepperoni, burrata, hot honey pizza and it was fantastic.Service was fantastic.My only con is that parking is valet only. We spent $15-$20 to park for the evening if I remember correctly. Next time we'll park somewhere free and walk.This is definitely a special occasion spot, but we thoroughly enjoyed it.Parking: Valet only, I want to say it was $15-$20 for the evening.

Enjoyed dinner and breakfast here during our stay. The Ricotta Gnocchi Carbonara was outstanding! You can add your choice of protein to it; we chose shrimp. The Pepperoni, Burrata, Hot Honey pizza was surprisingly great - I say surprisingly, as I thought the honey would be overpowering, but it balanced the dish perfectly. They provided a complimentary delighter and bread with butter made with their freshly grown herbs. Breakfast was also a homerun; we enjoyed Lemon Ricotta pancakes and Chilaquiles. Service was also exceptional.

Such an amazing dinner! Was looking for a good spot for my birthday dinner and Tocca Ferro made my day that much more special. The bruschetta and bread were delicious along with the pappardelle. And the desserts! The souffle was absolutely delicious. Such great service and amazing food to match. So happy I found this place.

So, I really didn't know what to expect. I've never done a Valentine's Day themed dinner. Which is exactly what this was. First and foremost it was pretty awesome, after I understood what was going down. They start by letting you pick from a already planned menu. They start with a terrific soup, move on to a starter in which you get to choose we chose the goat cheese starter. Then you have your choice of three entrees we chose the mignon. Which was excellently prepared. You get a salad and your choice of two desserts my wife and I chose different desserts. She chose the chocolate I chose the tiramisu both were excellent. However, I like the chocolate more. Overall it was a great experience with wonderful food our waitress Amanda was very attentive to us Special thanks

Right from the start all the way to the finish everyone was happy,friendly,helpful. Our waitress was so nice and helpful,the kitchen assistant was a friendly guy.We sat down and they brought us out a sample of filet mignon and asparagus it had so much flavor I loved it. The appetizer was delicious.My wife thought about trying the soup and was on the fence about it so the waitress offered a sample of it to which my wife accepted and loved the soup. She ordered the soup as another appetizer. We ordered salmon and a steak and enjoyed . I mentioned to the assistant the chef should have used the spices on the steak and he said I will let him know . 5 minutes later he gives me a small container of the spices to take home. We will be back for sure and recommend this place highly
Overall great experience, my entre was fantastic but my soup was a little bland. Cocktails were amazing. Service seems very stretched thin so at times it was hard to get attention but never to a point of issue at all. Would go back if I am in the area again!

 Fantastic service! From the hostess, to the servers, to the manager, you can tell the entire staff is focused on customer experience. They made our son's birthday celebration so special and the food was delicious! We will be back for sure!

My wife and 2 daughters dined here on Jan 25th around 8pm. I had read reviews and made reservations prior to our stay at the JW for a school Disney trip. I was really looking forward to this dinner as I am a huge Italian food fan. The restaurant is a bit cold and stark, not an inviting Italian chophouse atmosphere. The amuse of confit tomatoes was delicious as was the cheese and charcuterie we ordered. Kids pasta came out way too aldente but our server quickly remedied the problem. The filet was over cooked and a bit under seasoned. The whole dish was just a bit uninspired and cookie cutter. The main redeeming quality was our server whose name I believe was Lorena. We laughed with her and enjoyed great conversation. She went above and beyond to make our dining experience. The food is over priced, I get it being in a hotel and just not all that interesting. Lorena is the shining star of that restaurant and if you do decide to dine there you must request her.

The food and service were excellent! Amanda was exceptional with her attentive and knowledgeable service! She provided great recommendations on food with the seafood linguini and wine with the Cakebread Cabernet.
Quiet hotel restaurant with good steak options for the price range. Sides and other pasta dishes were a bit heavy on cream and butter, but other options were available. This is a convenient and quiet option for upscale dining in this area.

Dined at Tocca Ferro while staying at the JW Marriott. Service was great but the food was a bit disappointing. Salmon was solid but the Veal Parpadelle was a pound of pasta with very little sauce and hardly any veal. Also, a bit pricey, even with the $30 credit from staying at the hotel.

Amazing Food with even better service!! I stumbled into this restaurant and am so glad that I did. The menu is full of flavor - staff is so friendly and took extra care with my allergies. Highly recommend for any meal.
Five of us ate here on Christmas. There was a small holiday menu. I don't eat meat and I can't eat dairy so I asked if they could make a dish for me. They said they would adjust the eggplant Parmesan. Wonderful communication via email. Five dishes arrived. My friends had full plates. Pieces of meat or fish placed on top of grains with lots of vegetables. Very filling and good-looking meals. I received four slices of baked eggplant with a little bit of sautéed spinach shoved in between. About an eighth of a cup. No sauce. No grains. No other vegetables. The JW can definitely do better and should!
