Was disappointed that I made a reservation and was seated on a closed in patio that was very loud with lawn chairs, when there were many nicer tables available in the main restaurant. Food and service were excellent, and the atmosphere was not so much.

My girlfriend and I both experienced severe food poisoning 20 hrs after eating here. We shared the Veal Parmigiano and Chicken Marsala. We shared no other meals the day of (2/14) nor the day after, so we're pretty certain it was from here. We assume it was due to the valentines day rush and potential corner cutting from kitchen staff. Unfortunate because I've heard great things about the restaurant.

Was not told would have to eat in the cold after waiting 30mins for a table. No heat in outer room was told AC or Heat not working.

Always kind and fun wait staff. The pre-meal bread is amazing and so has every dish we've ordered from there. This is definitely one of our favorite kid-free\date night restaurants!

Tried something new this time and it was amazing. The fish was seasoned well and perfectly cooked. The potatoes were okay, I would suggest switching them out for another side as they were good but not remarkable. I have been here a few times since my initial post and the food has been amazing. I did also order the coconut mojito and it was not that great, somewhat watered down which was disappointing as the drinks I have ordered in the past were very good. They seemed busy the evening i visited so that may have impacted drink. Still strongly recommend this restaurant as the food is always so good. The thing I look for in a good restaurant is consistency and from the perspective of the quality of the food they have yet to dissatisfy.
Everything about Bonta is good. It's a solid pick. But my expectations were just too high or either misled. I was expecting something more upscale. So we were very overdressed. I actually like the decor. It's kinda rustic. But I was expecting white table cloths and a quieter more intimate setting. Which would've gone great with the fireplace. So I was really disappointed cause I planned a romantic date night. But instead it felt more like Applebees. Especially with a couple of tables being loud. But the service and food was great. The prices were very very good. Especially for an Italian restaurant. Literally everything we ordered we would order again!
Beautiful resturant and great service. Salmon is always great but this time ordered a ribeye steak. It was flavorable but way too salty and a tad over cooked. Expected more for a $50 steak.
I didn't care for the table that was off in the side room. Very boring white walled room with a few pieces of art work...it just didn't match the vibe of the restaurant main dining area or even the tables by the real windows and wine room. Lacked the ambiance of the rest of the restaurant. My cocktail “Contessa” tasted like a mock-tail and felt like one. The bread topping was a bit salty, took a while for my husband's soup to arrive. His shrimp Alfredo was overly salted and I was underwhelmed by the lamb chops. The mashed potatoes were soupy and the 4 itty bitty lamb chops...were definitely overpriced.

Reserved a table for Valentine's Day and was not disappointed at all. Jordan was amazing at recommending a fantastic red wine when we told her our preferences. Taylor was a great server and extremely friendly. Scott (GM) was very receptive to our feedback and polite. We had seafood pasta and were not disappointed. The arancini di riso was fantastic. My lady had the shrimp scampi and I had Spaghetti alle Cozze in Salsa di Pomodoro. Both were fantastic and paired perfectly with the wine we were provided. The ambiance was very classy and romantic. Even though it was pretty busy, the noise level was impressive. We were able to have a normal decibel conversation the entire dinner. I am thoroughly impressed with the restaurant and will definitely be back. Kuddos
Server Macy was great , the hostess that checked us in seem unprepared for an average amount of people. Had a reservation but still had to wait 15 minutes for table. It wasn't big deal so I just sat at bar and had drink however the hostess asked did we still want a table after 10 minutes at bar. Beyond shocked and annyoed at the counter productive question. After I assured them yes I still had to wait an additional five minutes for my table. Our server was able to quickly make up for this lack of service. But first impression are everything.
