Amazing from beginning to end. The service was great. Our waiter answered all our questions and helped with recommendations.

Cardellino was a solid choice for my Valentine's Day last night. My partner and I were seated right away by the sweet hostess at the front according to my seating preferences which I appreciated. Within the first few minutes we noticed a sliding door leading to a speakeasy which I think added to the lively ambiance of the restaurant. Our service support was very kind in his greeting. Our server was average. Although he was kind, he wasn't very attentive. I understand that the night was busy how ever I feel as if the service we were given didn't match my expectations for an elevated dining experience. I was expecting more of a personalized experience to say the least. He offered his recommendations and that was about it. At one point of the night, a woman I'm assuming was a manager or supervisor visited our table to check in and I had asked her for a specific drink she said they didn't have at Cardellino, but they could make in the speakeasy next door which she went and got for me. SO SWEET and matched my high quality service expectations. Drinks were good. For appetizers we ordered the prosciutto arugula salad and lamb lollipops. Both were delicious. Once our entrees came, The cacio e Pepe bucatini pasta the server recommended came out cold. The steak's texture, flavoring, and cut reminded me of a pork chop. It lacked memorable luster. The fingerling potatoes were good, and the egg on the asparagus was cold. If the server would have visited our table before we finished eating all of our food, I would have told him this. However he did not check in with us until about 20 minutes after the food was brought to the table. However when I did let him know, he took it off the bill which I did appreciate, I just wish he gave me a chance to let him know sooner. Overall, I'd say the ambiance, drinks, and appetizers would be the only thing keeping me coming back.

The wait time between ordering and receiving entrees was greater than 1 hour. Decibel rating was consistently between 80 and 90, making it difficult to hear my dinner companions speak.

Absolutely delicious! Definitely great for date night. I got the Sunday short rib spaghetti and it was phenomenal. They do have an open bar so if you aren't able to make a reservation, that's always an option, but there could be a significant wait for it. The speakeasy is super cute, but it does get pretty busy in there sometimes. 10/10, definitely going again

We sat at the bar. Bar was nice and bartenders were great. We got the chopped salad, spicy rigatoni and 8 oz filet. Everything was delicious. 10/10, especially the rigatoni

This was our first time at Cardellino and it was for my birthday. Our server was also the sommelier, and he recommended the most delicious and unexpected wine based on my preference for pinot noir, so we went with all of his suggestions for antipasti, pasta, secondi, and dessert. Everything was more tasty than the next

John was our server and he was absolutely amazing! His friendly demeanor and knowledge of the menu made our dining experience great! We would definitely dine at the restaurant again and absolutely recommend to friends.

We always have a great time at any of the Trust locations and Cardellino is no exception. The space is beautiful and the dishes are always excellent! Service is top notch as expected and we were well taken care of here. You can’t go wrong with anything you order and we make it a point to try new dishes each visit. Be sure to check out their new speakeasy here. It’s a secret so you’ll have to experience it yourself!
If I had to sit there for an hour waiting after I ordered I expect it to at least be decent. The Spaghetti Vongole was overcooked to the point of soggy. They loaded it with cheese and I couldn’t taste any of the clam nor olive oil flavor. The dry aged pork chop was so oily and salty and it’s a shame because I’m sure the pork itself was good I just couldn’t taste it. We were there on a Thursday night and sat at the bar and honestly it was so crowded we saw multiple people complaining about waiting too long for their food. We should’ve cut our losses at 45 min mark and left but we ended up waiting for longer than an hour. Their poor bartender was very sweet but so slammed they could barely breath! So expensive too what a terrible experience!

Excellent food, we loved the lamp lollipops and the spicy rigatoni. A bit loud inside due to a large party sitting next to us but other than that, 5 star review.
Billy
Excellent service during very busy happy hour. Personable staff. Great drinks & excellent food
Celeste
We had a phenomenal experience at Cardellino! Once we had our first bite of the lamb lollipops, we knew we were in for a real treat that night. The lamb along with the filet mignon and radiatori bolognese were there stars of the show. We also thoroughly enjoyed the prime ribeye, wild mushroom polenta, and the unique twist on the cacio e pepe. We added black truffle to our meats and I highly recommend that addition. We will surely be back!!
