We normally have a great experience at this restaurant, but not tonight. We made a 6:30 reservation and were seated in a timely fashion, but it was a long slow service for ordering drinks, appetizer, and entrees for a table of four. We did not receive our entrées until after 8:00. No apology from the server or manager until we complained, and even then we had to request that our bill be comped. All of the tables near ours also had a long wait for food. It took an hour for our entrees to come out. The food here is good, but nothing is worth that much of a wait!! Is there new management now? Aliano’s used to be way better than this…

This is such a hidden gem. Everything we had was delicious from the drinks to the appetizers and dinner and dessert. Our waiter (think his name was Wendell or wendlan) was top notch and we will absolutely be back in the very near future.

Excellent all the way around! We were in from Michigan visiting family and enjoyed a wonderful dinner at Aliano's. Great service, beautiful patio area that opens up to an herb garden in the summer! We will have to come back to have the summer garden experience. A+

Service has been off for the past year. Food is hit or miss. In our last three times here we have waited almost 40 minutes or more for our food after ordering each time, Also, each of those times we have been missing at least one meal when it finally gets delivered. Again, last night they forgot my meal, brought out the other food cold, and didn’t bring mine for almost 20 minutes. I told them to forget it. Never offered anything else like a bowl of soup or salad and no manager ever came to apologize. They offered me a tiramisu when I told them I didn’t want the past because everyone else was already done. I told them that I don’t want desert for a meal I never got. This seems typical as similar food and service issues have happened both of the other times we came here in the past 6 months. Ownership changed and maybe that’s the problem? Or lack of training for staff? We live 5 minutes away walking and won't eat here again.

This is a sneaky good Italian restaurant located in a small town. Food is excellent, service is excellent, and the ambiance is warm.
We were supposed to have a large order of desserts for our wedding but when we went to pick it up they said they forgot about it. Place has gone down hill since the new owners. Unprofessionally sitting at the bar every time Ives seen them. And treat there staff unfairly for the short comings. Old owner had more heart in the business and you could see that through employees. 0/10 with new owners.
Dining room seating was completely packed with discount patio furniture. I'm not sure I understand what was going on with the giant, white tarps covering the on side of the room. Our server, although pleasant, introduced himself 3 times and forgot one of our 2 drinks 4 times. Food was tasty but way overpriced.

My wife and I had dinner here last week and we enjoyed the dinner. Waylon ( spelling ?) was our waiter and he explained everything and made changes that we wanted to our meals without question. We're going back soon.Thank you.

Veal Marsala (spelled Marsela on the menu) arrived at our table with a tan-colored thickened gravy on Tuesday 2-13-24. I doubt there was Marsala wine in it. Tasted OK but more like American food you would eat at home. It didn’t taste Italian. I won’t come here for that again. Guessing they have cooks and lack an Italian chef in the kitchen. I’m wondering what the new owner as of May 2023 has done to maintain the food quality of the original owner.The glass of Chronology CA red blend was good. Service was excellent.
