The atmosphere was perfect, we had such a nice time here, the waitress Diana took care of us, she was very friendly and recommended a very nice cocktail Vesper and the Fritto Misto. Really recommend coming here for any occasion!

Just not worth the price at all and if you’re a smaller amount of people it feels like the waitstaff basically ignore you. Went there for my sisters birthday and it was really a let down. Kids running around everywhere, even playing with my purse at one point, we were given soft moldy olives and cheese, and my $35 octopus came with basically one potato, and more of the soft gross olives. Plenty of better places out there, looks better than it is.

Our experience with Cefalu was exceptional from start to finish and truly one of the best event-planning experiences we have ever had. We hosted a baptism for approximately 60 guests, and every detail was handled with professionalism, care, and genuine hospitality.

The staff was incredibly kind, attentive, and accommodating, ensuring that every guest felt welcomed and well taken care of throughout the event. The booking process was seamless, flexible, and stress-free, making planning our celebration an enjoyable experience.

The food was outstanding—beautifully prepared, delicious, and enjoyed by all of our guests. Combined with the warm atmosphere and exceptional service, it created a memorable day for our family and friends.

We could not have been happier with our experience and highly recommend Cefalu to anyone looking for a beautiful venue, amazing food, and a team that truly goes above and beyond. We are incredibly grateful for everything they did to make our celebration so special.

The absolute best place to host an event at. They are so responsive over email and Caroline was so accommodating and helpful. Day of the staff was so kind and made sure everything was exactly how I wanted it. I could not be more pleased with the service I received and all of my guests were so impressed with the event.

What a beautiful bridal shower we had at Cefalu! Thank you, Caroline, for making sure all the details were covered.
Beginning with your attention to detail in communications to the swift and friendly service the day of the shower. The space was gorgeous and the servers were professional and seemed genuinely happy to be a part of our day. Finally, the food was spectacular! All the guests raved about their pasta, eggplant, and chicken! It was the perfect day for my daughter's bridal shower and we will always remember how special you made it.

My word, this restaurant was excellent all around. Wife had the Steak & Wild Mushroom Risotto and I had the Pennoni. Both were to die for. Service and atmosphere were terrific. A special shoutout to Alsu, who was an awesome server. Would absolutely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a fine Italian dinner in the area.
