After a rough start to our night at another restaurant, **Ponza** came through and completely saved the evening! The moment we walked in, the energy was on point — welcoming, lively, and full of good vibes. We were greeted right away and seated comfortably, and unlike our last stop, *everything* we needed was already on the table: silverware, napkins, and actual attention. 🙌
And let’s talk about the food — **delicious**. Every bite hit. Fresh, flavorful,...

I really love this restaurant. I've been 3 times and they have been consistent with such friendly and attentive staff, their sauce is fantastic! I'm gluten free and am hooked on the pasta Primavera. My mom has had soup and salad, ravioli and penne and meatballs. Haven't been disappointed with anything. Sundays they have a great band from 12-3. We really have good things all around to say about it.

I had a roasted cauliflower wedge with pesto sauce and mixed veggies- and it was so yummy!! The veggies were all fresh too.
Yummy hot bread and butter - was served as well.
All in all- I highly recommend Ponza!
