“Just ate here today for the first time and the pizza was amazing!! I ordered the bbq chicken and my friend got pepperoni. The crust was insanely delicious and crispy! Cheese to toppings ratio was on point! The mozzarella cheese sticks were also very good! And to top it all off, the customer service was 💯!! Highly recommend!!“

“Second visit to Limoncello and want to say the food is excellent in every way. Last night I had Arugula salad (very lemony dressing), the Risotto (outstanding) and chocolate gelato which was VERY chocolate. Topped with a nice wine. All Excellent. As for atmosphere, lots of large parties there last night celebrating Christmas and birthdays so was quite noisy, but 'tis the season. Highly recommend Limoncello. Food and service are excellent and above average. Menu is extensive with very different and interesting options. If they would have served a shot of Limoncello after dinner I would have thought I was dining in Italy.“

“So bummed we only now discovered this gem. Service was top shelf…….seriously outstanding. Food was really solid, the lasagna is the best around according to my wife. They also do the IG worthy pasta in the block of cheese. Not my best pics, but check them out.“

“A real family owned and operated gem. Vinny and his dad (the chef) are great. His side pasta w garlic and olive oil is amazing. I usually get the veal piccata and my wife the chicken marsala. Both are great. In general he makes the best sauces. The deserts are yummy too. Give them a try. You will be delighted.“

“We had a beautiful meal and noise level has gone way down due to new elements on ceiling. The service was impeccable. Attentive but didn't rush us. I tried the spinach salad with added shrimp for first time as wanted something lighter. It was amazing with warm vinegar dressing. The salmon special was also excellent. Without asking our waiter brought out a tiramisu to share as noticed we were celebrating a birthday. This was probably the best tiramisu I've ever had including those in Italy!“

“Tasted Bricco Cucina & Wine Bar Caesar salad - dang it is way too salty the dressing and croutons 😟. First ever salty Caesar salad dressing and croutons, too disappointing and unhealthy.😞 I've informed Diane, our server of the way too saltiness of both Caesar Salad dressing and croutons and she reassured me that she will inform and let the owner know about it. I hope Diane advised the owner.“

“Took my cousin and her son to Jack's this evening. We all had never been, and being beach town residents, we gave it a try. Orange Roughy for me with the spinach and mash, Rainbow trout and Ravioli for remaining dishes. All outstanding! One dessert (pictured) which tastes even better than it looks. Waiters were punctual and fantastic. A great dining experience. Recommended 5 stars.“

“If you're looking for an authentic Italian dining experience that feels like a slice of the Mediterranean, look no further than this charming Trattoria! From the moment we walked in, we were enveloped in a warm and inviting atmosphere, perfectly complemented by a refreshing bottle of Vermentino Campo al Mare to kick off our evening. Fa Bene indeed! For our starter, we indulged in a delightful salad featuring wild arugula, endives, red onions, walnuts, and Reggiano cheese drizzled with balsamic dressing. Each bite was bursting with flavor and texture; it paired beautifully with the complementary tapenade and crostini—an excellent way to awaken our taste buds. Our server Jorge truly made the evening memorable with his attentive service. He guided us through the menu while ensuring our glasses were never empty. With fresh focaccia straight out of the oven and homemade pasta on offer, we knew we were in for a treat. The star of the night was undoubtedly the daily special of Strozzapreti—hand-twisted pasta that lives up to its intriguing name. Tossed in a rich Pomodoro sauce with fennel and pork sausage, each mouthful felt like pure bliss. It's easy to see why this dish has such an engaging backstory—it's both comforting and indulgent. Overall, this Trattoria is not just about great food; it's an experience worth celebrating! Whether you're dining with friends or planning a romantic evening out, this place promises fine wine, delicious dishes, and unforgettable memories. Buon Appetito!“

“What a fabulous place. Went there to celebrate mutual birthdays with my BFF. I loved everything about this restaurant. Our bartender was fabulous, our meal, Branzino.. delicious, eye appealing, beautiful presentation and enough to split We met the owner who spent ample time with us as we asked questions about his journey opening the location, his background and the concept/vision for the restaurant and we met the GM. I loved the ambiance, open and welcoming and they have a mercado with authentic product. Next time I'm going to the pizza bar with some more birthday girls!“

“I stumbled upon this area unexpectedly and decided to explore. This restaurant was open and it looked very elegant and clean. There was plenty of seating outside and I liked that the soup ? of the day was cream of broccoli. I decided to enjoy a bow and it was delicious ?. It was creamy but you could still savor chunks of broccoli. It hit the spot! For some reason, it took a long time for my order to arrive. The staff was professional and cordial. I wish there were more than 1 Italian red wine available. I enjoyed a nice glass of Californian Pinot Noir.
I thought prices were average and the happy hour offers discounts.
You can get a little view if the Pacific Coast I'd you sit outside facing West.
I would definitely come back.“

“A wonderful find. My wife and I had a wonderful dining experience at Sabatinos Italian Bistro this evening. Our server Frederico was professional and quite personable. We started our dinner with two glasses of wine and the bruchetta. The Talbot Chardonnay and the Dry Creek Cabernet were both excellent choices. My wife ordered the eggplant gnocchi, which she loved, and I had the sausage and pepper rigatoni. Both dishes were excellent. The service, food, and ambiance were quite authentic and enjoyable. We spoke with Frederico, who is the ultimate professional, and decided to order a side of meatballs to go as well. This was our first time at Sabatinos, and this restaurant is definitely worth a visit. Ask for Frederico as he is the ultimate professional. Highly Recommended.“

“Great food and service. Was very impressed to see all workers wearing gloves and masks. Other restaurants need to follow your example. These are uncertain times and every precaution is necessary. I want to help support local businesses but if they don't protect both staff and workers, I won't be back. Kudos to you Guichos!❤“

“This was our first time here and we arrived at what seemed to be a shift change as there was only one server for the first 30 minutes of our visit. She did a good job but had way too many people to handle by herself.
The food was very good and they have a great happy hour menus.“

“Had a nice evening at Dominicos on the lake this evening. My wife and I had reservations and were fortunate to ask Kory for a patio table which he accommodated. Michael took us to our table and was very kind and professional. Pedro came by with our bread and water and said hello. He is one of the hardest working individuals at the restaurant. Eddie our server came by and took our orders with a bottle of Austin Hope and bread to start. My wife ordered a chicken breast salad and I had the chef's special stroganoff which was amazing. Unfortunately my wife's salad came out 30 minutes after my stroganoff which was a cardinal sin in the restaurant business and we mentioned it was not acceptable. Eddie apologized and we also had Steven, the GM, come by and also apologize and ensure the salad would be out shortly. The salad was delivered, of course after I ate my entree and Steven dropped off and apologetic gift certificate for an appetizer during our next visit. We also ordered an additional beef stroganoff plus an order of meatballs to take home for tomorrow. We undertake things happen and it's certainly nice to see the restaurants busy again but a party of two receiving their entrees 30 minutes apart is not conducive with quality service. I am guessing the chef either misplaced the order or overlooked the obvious and we hope next time we will not have such issues as the restaurant is very good and in a fantastic location. Michael also came back around and stated he was concerned about this mishap and would look into this. As a retired government administrator and former restaurant manager in my college days I expect the simple things like entrees being delivered at the same time to be in sync with quality service and dining. We will be back and see if in fact this was an isolated incident. Good food and ambiance plus. As a writer for Trip Advisor, Yelp and Google I am graceful in my comments and specific in areas needed improvement. Thanks you.“

“Disappointing....the waiter did not have it together at all. Too many incidents to list but it was not a pleasant experience. The high point was the food which was delicious but it was not the kind of meal that warranted a meal lasting over 2hrs due to a waiter being disorganized and disengaged with the guests.“

“Where do I start. The atmosphere was great ? Very Italian and the music was Sinatra at his best! Huge basket of bread! (on the house) olive oil and balsamic for dipping! Of course, I got some garlic to put in the dip again, with no charge! BTW, the prices were very inexpensive, like the fried mozzarella sticks were so good to start! I ordered my fav Eggplant Parm! My buddy got the Diavalo sauce with pasta. I heard him say it was the best meal he ever had, and he used to live in Chicago!!! The waiter was always around to please our every needs. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and will go back soon! Thanks, Cosmos!“
