Our experience was exceptional, as always. The service is especially outstanding, not way over the top but just the right amount of "making sure everything is okay". I ordered the duck and it was excellent. I eat at Donato's often, as it is one of my favorite restaurants. Everyone I have invited for a meal has loved it ! Thank you for making our experience one we will not forget.

The pasta was perfectly prepared and absolutely delicious. We love the creative cocktails! The wine suggested for dinner matched the meal and helped bring out all the wonderful flavors of the fish and shellfish. Our desserts were beautiful and heavenly.

Donato is always consistent with the food, menu design, customer service and ambience. From the host to our server Jill and the dinner staff that greeted us on the way out, we had a wonderful experience and it made the birthday celebration a very special get together. Thank you!
