We got our food delivered to our hotel. The pasta was out of this world! Best focaccia bread in the universe! Thank you for your friendly fast delivery humans. They are lovely!
So delicious, plus felt like a family experience with all of the staff! We were visiting for my birthday, and upon entry I was greeted and wished happy birthday by two employees, and our waitress, and even while leaving after such a great meal and drinks (and birthday tiramisu), they remembered me out of all of the guests on that busy night and said to enjoy my birthday once again on our way out! Was very thoughtful, we will be returning for sure!
Barattas did the family takeaway meals for our out of town softball team. The food was all great and the price was fantastic for us to feed our families on the road!!

Our first time ordering pizza to go from Baratta's. Fail. We ordered a margherita pizza and when we got it home discovered it was margherita toppings on top of a surprise heavy layer of roasted red peppers.

My fiancé and I were recommended Baratta’s for our wedding. Originally I emailed on August 19th to schedule a tasting. When I emailed, I usually would have to email twice to get a response (which was the first red flag). Michelle (who I was emailing) sent back a few dates/times. I replied with what worked for us and let her know we would see her then. I did not hear back so I emailed again. Again, I did not get a reply. My fiancé and I still showed up since that was the date she offered. When we showed up, she was not there and did not have it in her calendar. Very unprofessional and disappointed. The host was nice but after this experience, we will not be using their food for our wedding. I would not recommend this place when planning your wedding because they are unreliable.

I would give 5 stars because everything was great, except my waitress wasn't super familiar with every item on the menu. I saw this drink on the menu that looked interesting, but I didn't know what one of the ingredients were and since I had no cell service here, I asked the waitress what it was. To be fair, she said she wasn't sure but also said she thought it was like a whiskey, so I trusted her and ordered it. Turns out it was an Italian liquor that is steeped in spices, one of them being juniper, which I'm allergic to.

Our new favorite restaurant! We had a seafood linguini special and the cheese ravioli; amazing! Really neat atmosphere and excellent service, with tiramisu that I'd come back for it alone! Pictures next time, if I can wait that long.
Local restaurant, very well run with changing ambiance and amazing food. checks all the boxes for us!

I've only been in this place once to apply like more than 20 years ago. I live right down the street but never bother because I don't want to deal with the crowds. I found it on doordash and was like ok I'm getting it. I got the lasagna and it is so good. I have enough for 2 more meals so I found the price for quality food reasonable. My only complaint and why no 5 stars is because I had no dessert option

Service was competing with the taste of the food. Took my employees out for dinner and we were all amazed on the food, desert, bread and customer service! Definitely going back!
