I'm very very disappointed in this restaurant. I was in the area for my husband's work and decided to get some pasta. I decided to come here due to the reviews as I love pasta and haven't ate since 8am. The place is small and very fancy with low amount of staff. It took about 7 min to get my order from walking in the door. A very nice gentleman gave me my order and waited for the waiter to pay me out. My bill came out to $77 for mozzarella sticks, fettuccine chicken Alfredo, spaghetti, and tiramisu. The biggest disappointment was the mozzarella sticks and fettuccine Alfredo. Attached are the photos. Yes I did get my order to go so I can eat with my husband for his lunch break. The mozzarella sticks came out completely smooshed and tasted awful. The breading was nothing like actual mozzarella sticks. Now the pasta was even more disappointing. The sauce was very watery (tasted like water) when it should be more creamy and the chicken was very tasteless like there was no seasoning on the chicken. That was what I was looking forward to. I didn't get to eat with how gross it came out. Do not come here unless you have no taste buds and want to spend ridiculous amount of money on less average food. Will not be coming back here again.

I went with a large group and I think everyone but me like their entrées way better than I did. I really think maybe I just made a wrong taste choice. I went for a mushroom ravioli with a cream sauce. I have to say the service was excellent. It’s a cute little restaurant. You probably wanna make a reservation if you’re going there, the bread is incredible. It’s so so yummy. I did enjoy the appetizers. I was not impressed though by the Caesar salad I was with five other people and they all loved their trace. I think I just made a poor choice. I would recommend it and even for a romantic night or dinner.

Another lovely experience at IL Nido. Warm and friendly servers. Dim lighting. Quiet. Easy parking. AND THE FOOD IS AMAZING. Wonderfully fresh salad. Spaghetti with lobster is delicious. Highly recommend this restaurant for an enjoyable evening!

After being turned away from a restaurant a few doors down, my friend and I happened to give Il Nido a try, and we ended up thankful for the original slight. Our dishes were, carefully crafted, culinary delights. My friend and I chose the specials; I had the ravioli in a cream sauce with truffle shavings and mushrooms, and my friend had Sole, with arugula in a light red sauce. Both choices were divine. Afterward we asked our knowledgeable server, Robert, which dessert he would recommend and he did not disappoint. I had a lemon tart and my friend had a pistachio, ricotta cake that was light and with just a hint of sweetness. I can’t wait to return and see what other delights they offer.

The appetizers were very good. We had meatballs and the carpaccio. Delicious. The pasta was so so..ok. the chicken parm with cheese was pretty good. Great wine for very reasonable price and good espresso. Service could be a bit better. The owner was charming and very nice. The other servers can do a better job. Overall, for the valley, it's a great option.

The service was horrible and the people working in there were very rude. Btw you are confusing of person but treatening people in the comments also says a lot.

We had an excellent dinner-salads, pastas, and a secondo (chicken marsala) along with dessert and everything was delicious. The pasta is housemade and everything tasted so fresh. We also had great service. And by the way, there actually were Italians working there...always a good sign.
