My wife and I went here for the first time Monday night 03/18/24. This place has the best pasta I have ever had at a restaurant, simply amazing! For an appetizer we had the bruschetta. This has to be the best bruschetta I have ever had, hands down. It was very crispy, not under cooked or overcooked, with balsamic vinegar and oil, topped with the freshest and firmest tomato's. Highly recommend. For drinks we had a glass of chianti and ice tea, the chianti was the best I have ever tasted. For the main dinner entrees we had spaghetti and meatballs (marinara sauce, not meat sauce), and the half and half, which consists of spaghetti with marinara sauce and ravioli. There has never been an italian restaurant I have ever been to, that cooks spaghetti noodles correctly. The noodles were firm, not mushy, and not hard. It's difficult to make noodles like this, we cook them at home to be firm but not hard, but I have never been to a restaurant that properly cooks their noodles like this. Just outstanding! The spaghetti sauce was also amazing, lots of flavor, not runny, and not too thick. The owner told us he cooks the spaghetti sauce for 4 hours. The meatballs were not under cooked or overcooked, with an explosion of flavor in your mouth. The cheese in the ravioli was to die for, just like the cheese my mother used to make in her authentic Italian manicotti. All the ingredients were fresh, including all the vegetables and side salad we had with our meal. At the end of our dinner, the owner of the restaurant brought us a special of his own making: Tuscany chicken pasta. Very nice guy, you can tell he is passionate about the work that he does. My wife was "full", but she could not get enough of the Tuscany chicken pasta he made for us. The sauce was creamy, full of flavor, and the chicken was divine: not too soft, not hard, just right. All the food we had was of exceptional quality: fresh, perfectly cooked, and chalked full of flavor. The owner recommends visiting during the week, not the weekend. It gets very busy on the weekend, and I could see that the restaurant is quaint and quite small.The atmosphere was perfect. We had a booth right in front of the restaurant window. It was not loud or crowded when we went, and I really appreciated all the dark colors used in the decor. The bathroom was clean, comfortable, and well stocked. Everything at our table was very clean. A clean table is a big deal to me, and this place did not disappoint. All the dishes, silverware, and glasses were also clean. Sadly, at most restaurants, we have to ask for a clean something or other, but we did not have that problem here on Monday night.I hardly ever write reviews for anything, but this guy deserves it, his service was very personable and extremely friendly. I love to see anyone who is passionate about what they do, and he definitely fits the bill. That is probably why his restaurant and food is way above average. The experience was so exceptional, I felt like I was on one of those food traveling shows, being catered to like Feed Phil.Parking: We went on a Monday night, so there was plenty of parking available on the street in front of the restaurant.

Pozzetto Italian Dining is the spot! Jack, the owner is so amazing. Today was the first time meeting him and it feels as if I've known him for many years. He is so kind and respectful. Our visit to Pozzetto Italian was unforgettable; the food is amazing, the atmosphere is relaxing, and the service is outstanding. We started off with the Minestrone soup followed by some brochetta (Amazing). We tried several entrées and all were delicious. Our favorite so far, Viva Italian and Pozzetto Lasagna. The garlic bread is so soft and fresh! And you must try the tarimisu. Jack is so knowledgeable with his wine collection and his food. Recipes are made in house and food taste authentic and homemade. 10 out of 10 and will recommend to others. We will continue to dine at Pozzetto Italian Dining. Thanks Jack!

This is my new favorite Italian restaurant! The food was so good, I got a pasta dish and there was so much meat and other toppings in the dish, not just a bunch of pasta like a lot of places will do. The service was great, everyone there is so nice and welcoming. Also, so many options on the menu, it was hard to choose since everything sounded so good. And the tomato basil soup was so creamy, great for a cold day.

As a vegan, they had INCREDIBLE options! I came here with a work group and talked to the owner about me and my partner being vegan. He told me not to worry and that he would bring out some dishes for us. From the bread, to the fried zucchini, to the mushroom ravioli - everything was delicious! I was shocked at the texture of the ravioli and thought there was cheese inside so I double checked with the owner and he assured me it was completely vegan! They were so friendly and accommodating and I highly recommend to any vegans/vegetarians looking for an authentic Italian experience!Vegetarian options: Few vegan option but definitely worth coming in to try!

Super flavorful minestrone, awesome linguine vongole (clams) and great wine tonight. Haven't had anything yet that wasn't worth having a second time.

Terrible food. I had chicken parmesan, it was thin and tough with angel hair pasta....VERY small portions. Salad was extra when the server said it came with the meal. Bread was extra too. $80.00 for 3 people. Think twice before eating here!!!!!!!!

If you are a fan of authentic Italian cuisine and are looking for a dining experience that will not disappoint, Pozzetto Fine Italian Dining is definitely worth checking out. I recently had the pleasure of trying their lasagna and was thoroughly impressed with the dish. Unlike other restaurants that add fillers to their lasagna, Pozzetto's lasagna is made entirely of meat, giving it a hearty and wholesome taste.The restaurant itself is also quite charming, with a cozy and inviting atmosphere that makes you feel at home. The staff is friendly and attentive, making sure that all your needs are met and that you have an enjoyable experience.Overall, if you are looking for a taste of Italy that is both authentic and satisfying, Pozzetto Fine Italian Dining should definitely be on your list of places to try. Their commitment to quality ingredients and traditional cooking methods is evident in every dish they serve, and their lasagna is definitely a standout that should not be missed.
