I usually get the Fettuccine Bolognese, the pasta is handmade and the sauce is amazing. The portions are big and they also have Charcuterie. Food is always delicious. Must try!
We at the bar and had delicious cocktails. The food was tasty and the portions were great. Would definitely go back

Restaurant Review
The food at this restaurant was absolutely outstanding, and it’s clear the kitchen staff is skilled and passionate about what they do. Each dish was bursting with flavor, perfectly cooked, and beautifully presented. From the appetizers to the desserts, everything was a culinary delight.
Unfortunately, the service left much to be desired and significantly dampened our experience. Our waitress seemed completely disengaged, treating us as though we were inconveniencing her with our presence. She was inattentive, dismissive, and lacked even the most basic courtesy you’d expect when dining out. Simple requests felt like pulling teeth, and the overall attitude made us feel unwelcome.
It’s truly a shame because the food deserves all the praise, but the service undermined what could have been a stellar dining experience. If management invests in better training or hires more attentive staff, this place could easily become a favorite. Until then, I’d only recommend it for takeout.

Great Food, Disappointing Service The food was absolutely exceptional. Every dish was bursting with flavor, beautifully presented, and clearly crafted with care. From the appetizers to the main courses, everything was spot-on and worthy of high praise.
Unfortunately, the service did not match the quality of the food. While our waitress was initially attentive, she completely disengaged after serving our dinner. When we wanted to order dessert, we had to flag down another server because she didn’t check back with us. Eventually, she returned after we had already placed our dessert order and rather brusquely set down a water bottle on the table, saying, “Here’s your water. Your desserts are in, and you’re all set,” before walking away.
Her lack of engagement made the dining experience feel less welcoming, which was a shame given how outstanding the food was. The disconnect between the exceptional cuisine and the subpar service was hard to ignore. Hopefully, the restaurant addresses these service issues, as the food alone makes it worth visiting—but the service needs to catch up for it to be a truly enjoyable experience.

Lovely place, good service, good food. My favorite place!
Festive decorations for Christmas dinner, friendly and attentive staff, delicious meal, wide variety of pastas, and one of the best cocktails I've had in quite a while.
Everytime we come to Ecco the experience is perfect. These guys know how to run a restaurant. Food, staff and environment are top notch. Highly recommended!

We had a reservation for 730. We were told five minutes when we walked in at 7:29. After 15 minutes, we see another party of 8 walk in and within five minutes, were seated. We were a party of 7. I did go and ask why they would be seated first. Heard an excuse that the table available fit 8 comfortably, and we would be next. Said, five minutes again, after 25 minutes of waiting.
Either way, upon walking in the place was stunning. It was a great atmosphere and my dad, who was turning 65 was looking forward to trying the food.
So, we stood waiting. We were seated, and the waiter, Ralph, was a true pleasure. Came with a great smile, and positive attitude. He wZzo very attentive. Him, along with the waiters dropping the food off, and the man who filled out water, I had new hopes. As the appetizers came, and we tasted with delight, I was happy we stood.
We didn't realize until the end, the man at the front was the manager. He never came up to us to apologize, but he did credit us our desserts and coffee. That was a nice touch.
I did explain to the man in front, that the place was recommended by another Sacred Heart University parent. My son is at the college, and my dad wanted to make sure we had dinner with him. I also explained we lived 2.5 hours away, and we're going back home that night, so it was important to be seated, and explained why I was questioning. Either way, we would come again, and appreciated the desserts, which were delicious too.
Parking: Other businesses were closed, so parking was easy.
Kid-friendliness: Seemed family friendly.
