Loved this place . Enjoyed the meal, service, atmosphere , great !!! I was raised in an italuan household and my mom is an A+ cook . I dont lol for italian restaurants because ive had the best but Lorcio rivals Ma!
Love love love L'Orcios!!! My husbands favorite restaurant, we celebrated his birthday there last night. It was restaurant week so that was a bonus! Food, ambience, service all superb and 3 courses for $45, amazing.
Food is mid, eggplant pasta wasn't great, chicken parm was mushy and all you could taste was salt in the sauce
Three of us went for restaurant week and everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meal. The only reason I didn't give it a higher rating was because I'm always looking for something new and wanting to be “wowed”. Actually, I think the beef stew did wow me. I may change my rating.
This is consistently one of my favorite places to dine. The food and service are always outstanding!
My husband and I went on a date night this evening. I've wanted to go here for a long time and finally decided to try it. It was amazing and we will be coming back. We had the oysters on the half shell and the tuna carpaccio as appetizers- delicious. We shared a pasta dish the homemade gnocchi which was so yummy and like little pillows of hugs in every bite! For dinner I had the rack of lamb and my husband had the steak. We sampled each other's dinner. Both were so good. There was love in the food. Almost like if you went home and the meal was cooked with love. Cozy atmosphere and the service was spot on. I'm looking forward to coming back and eating on the back patio when the weather gets nice again! We had a long week and this meal was just wonderful and what we needed. Thank you!!!
Highly recommend. Service was on point. The room is comfortable and low noise. The dishes were simply presented with top quality ingredients. Our party of six had a great evening.
Excellent Italian restaurant, the seasonal dishes were nicely balanced and rich in taste respecting Italian cuisine. Highly recommended!
Enjoyable birthday dinner. Martini's excellent. Butter nut squash ravioli outstanding. Veal limone good.
Sat outside in the back courtyard. Really beautiful and peaceful. Great food, house made pasta, not too expensive. Going back!

What an excellent meal, Server Giovanna was fun. Food was fresh Gnocchi fluffy light. Veggies olive oil just awesome. Drinks great Garden in back lovely ambience.
This was a really underwhelming experience. The atmosphere feels dated. The food is sort of old fashioned, nothing that you can't put together in your own kitchen. The waiter was sort of rude, dropping the plates to our table and taking too long to take our order or check on us.

I got the specials 6 oysters which were fresh & delicious. They had another special tuna and arugula salad. I asked if it was a dinner plate and the server indicated it was. When presented it was beautifully served. However there was just a thin smear of the tuna with a ball of arugula. Definitely not a dinner portion. At that point my guest were finishing up and I needed more. Probably my mistake but I wish the server explained the dish better
It's been years since my last time at L'Orcio. And after last night's wonderful dinner, I'm asking myself, "Why?" I had out of town visitors, and given the gorgeous weather, thought it would be nice to enjoy dinner with them in an "al fresco" setting. L'Orcio immediately came to mind, as the last time I ate there was on that magical trellised patio. We started with the octopus, which was cooked perfectly, and the tuna carpaccio, which we enjoyed, but perhaps was a bit overwhelmed by too large a pile of lightly dressed arugula. The homemade pastas are stars of this restaurant, and the Mediterranean seabass we shared was cooked perfectly. The desserts...the three of us each ordered something different and shared. Reluctant but curious, we ordered the tiramisu, which outshone all others I've had. The chocolate mousse was spectacular, as was the lemon ricotta cheesecake. Service was impeccable.
Excellent cocktails, food, service, and ambiance. A great place for al fresco dining for any occasion. Nicely busy on a Tuesday night.
