This charming trattoria came onto my radar, driven by a craving for Veal Saltimbocca and I was not disappointed! I called ahead to make a reservation and I was seated at my reservation time. The Veal Saltimbocca tasted like it came straight from a traditional Italian kitchen. It was tender, fresh and flavorful, served in a generous portion.
I'm not much of a drinker, but the Margarita Italiano with Limoncello was the best Margarita I've ever tasted and was served in a large glass! Service was excellent from my initial phone call to make the reservation through the end of my visit. I am looking forward to eating my leftovers tomorrow. I would come here again for the same meal, without hesitation.

Trattoria Alberto is a great spot for dinner. The pasta is fresh and delicious, and the sauces have just the right flavor. The little dining room feels cozy, and the staff are super friendly - they treat you like family. I already can’t wait to go back!

Went for a group celebration dinner. It was delicious. Great service, nice atmosphere, and delicious food. The calamari was spectacular. We really enjoyed the seafood pasta and chicken Parmesan entrees.
The food is amazing one of my favorite places to go to

The environment was enjoyable- the upstairs seating was private, but the downstairs was quite busy. The service was great- the servers were attentive and helpful. The food was delicious- it did take a while though to get our meal. The wait was worth it though. I ordered the fettuccine alfredo and it was fantastic.
A one star review is rare from me. Please look at the many other reviews I’ve left if you don’t believe me.
The first strike against them happened before I even arrived. My grandpa, who lives in Florida, got a gift certificate for $100. I didn’t have a physical certificate as I had never been to the restaurant and he was in Florida. He was double charged ($200). After over a month, we thought it was rectified and we had two $100 gift certificates. We did not, we barely had the first one. I had to speak to at least three people to get the first gift certificate figured out.
The second strike is the food. Entrees are about $30. They are not worth $30. The chicken parm is adequate, the pasta was ridiculously overcooked. I can make better pasta when I’m half asleep. An early warning was the cold bread from a grocery store and butter we started with.
The final and worst part of the visit was what we heard. My husband, who is Hispanic, overheard some of the waitstaff. Normally I wouldn’t think anything of it. After dinner, he told me that one of them said “later I have to deal with that *gay slur*” it’s hard to believe it was not about us, the only homosexual couple in the restaurant. Even if it was about someone else, this is NEVER appropriate language in a customer facing situation.
I am frustrated and disappointed. I like to give even mediocre restaurants a second chance, but I’m not sure I will.
Wheelchair accessibility: There is a step up and the main door is up about 8 steps.

I rarely leave reviews but the food here was exceptionally terrible. The worst Italian food I’ve ever had. This food was so bad it hurt - my feelings and my stomach. You’ll have better luck at olive garden. The garlic bread was a joke - wasn’t even baked/crispy and just had garlic powder and some chopped garlic on it, the pasta with the chicken parmigiana was completely unseasoned like it went from pot to plate, the creme brûlée didn’t have a hard sugar top and tasted like flan, and what was supposed to be fried calamari was completely chewy and unseasoned. It was all disgusting and I’m really sad I can’t get my money back.
