We Love the Restaurant, have been numerous times, had a special which was delicious. My one and only complaint be more welcoming. A young teenage girl blonde was too busy on her phone to talk to us. Maybe its because we just went to Capital Grille where we were treated like family being invited into their home.

Always love the food, service and atmosphere. This early dinner experience was unfortunately disappointing. My family absolutely loves the risotto balls. This was the 1st time that they were cooked differently. The outsides of the balls was very hard. I think it was cooked just alittle too long. We also had 2 different types of pizza and my child had pasta with butter, which unfortunately was made with a thick butter sauce rather than just butter as we asked for. The pizzas were not great as well. Mostly all dough with not much toppings. The description of the pizzas from the menu with what we received was very disappointing and just not right. When asked by our server how the food was, I felt like I had too say something. It was all just so disappointing and honestly has never happened before. Our server spoke with the manager. The manager did take off 1 pizza from our bill. I felt like the pasta should have been taken off as well as it was wrong and my child did not even eat more than 5 bites. Our server was very nice as it was not her fault. We were thinking it definitely came from the kitchen that messed up our order. I don't think we would be in any hurry to head back to Posto any time soon in the near future. It's really too bad to have had this experience. It's just too expensive to pay for food and not to receive the type of quality you should.

Last night was our first time trying Posto's, we ordered take out for a cozy Sunday dinner at home. The person taking the order was friendly, knowledgeable and overall very pleasant. Order was done on time in a reasonable amount of time (about 30 minutes).
My wife got the Wood Oven Roasted Half Chicken, she loves bone in chicken (she couldn't wait for me to take the picture before digging in already). Rolls were fresh and with nice consistency. I ordered the Caramelized Italian Meatloaf. I don't usually go for meatloaf but reading the menu I was definitely craving it. Very tasty, just a hint of spice, enough to leave a little tingle on your tongue. The mashed potatoes paired well with the broccoli rabe that is usually a bit on the bitter side. All the ingredients tasted fresh and well prepared, both meals were plenty warm as well. For desert we had the gelato and apple crisp cheesecake, forgot to tke a picture but both very satisfying!!
Overall the food was of quality and tasted very good.
Priced on the higher side, demographics probably play a role there. Portions are good enough, not too large but enough to fill you up, for my wife the half chicken ended up being her lunch the next day as well.
We had one hickup with the order, when I opened my food I noticed a staple in the mashed potatoes. Most likely was a random accident that one fell in but it still made me cautious. My wife called immediately and they offered a replacement meal delivered or a refund (without any arguement, respect!) Being really hungry and not wanting to wait I chose the refund and decided I would just be very careful at eating it and check every bite first. I appreciate how that was handled and it won't defer me from eating here again. I just hope they keep the stapler away from open food containers, at their pricepoint that seems a bit sloppy, I'm hoping it was an isolated incident.
All in all, a good experience, the service stands out. I am curious what I will try next, the menu is very promising.

I took my girlfriend to this establishment for her birthday and was absolutely disgusted with the service. Myself and my girlfriend both work in the customer service industry so we totally understand things happen. However the owners daughter was seated next to us and received her food before us even though we placed our order around 45 minutes before she even got there. I would have had no problem with that but the fact that the owners daughter received better service than I did when I’m coming to your establishment to spend money leaves a bad taste in my mouth. I have had plenty of unpleasant dining experiences and frankly never left a review for any establishment like this. The manager did comp two drinks and provided my girlfriend with cheese cake since they noticed my reservation was for a birthday which I do appreciate, however the manager telling me the reason why the table next to me received better service was because it was the owners daughter is absolutely ridiculous to tell a paying customer. On a more positive note I did enjoy the plum Bucky and the mussels Arrabbiata

We had the ribs with cornbread and pickles for an app. I got the chicken parm, which was unlike any I had before and was delicious. The tiny ball pasta (acini de pepe) worked so much better with it than a long or large noodle. My s/o had the porkchop and it was out of this world. Cannot describe! We both got affogato after as both a sweet treat and a pick me up. We will definitely be back.

My sister and I enjoyed a delicious dinner at Posto after the Big E. The portions were huge and everything came out quickly and hot. The asparagus and hummus were fantastic and the lobster ravioli and chicken parm were really great, too! Our server Megan was very nice and attentive and we will definitely be back!

We went to this restaurant to try out the food and ended up loving it so much. We knew we wanted different food options than what we had for our wedding day so we decided to book our rehearsal dinner here and are so glad we did! Everyone was so helpful with planning and they did such an amazing job. The restaurant does not have a "event room" per say but they have a back portion of the place that is semi-separated from the rest and they added partitions to make it even more intimate. The set up was absolutely perfect. They brought in table linens that worked with the colors we had for the wedding and created the cutest menu that matched the table linens. The service was amazing they were all super attentive. The food was delicious and they managed to ensure each meal was as good as the next for 34 people with no errors. The portions were incredible and everyone left there stuffed! We may just make the trip out there to have dinner some time! Could not think of a better place to have our rehearsal dinner and could not be more impressed with this place!!!

The eggplant was good. The meatball I had added to the side was just weird. Like the meat was pureed. Taste wasn't beef. My mouth was confused. The waitress was great about it though and took it off the bill. Found out it was veal. That explained the taste. Husband's fish was good but could have been hotter. The restaurant was empty but they only had seats in the bar or outside. We chose outside and should have taken the bar. Lots of kids back and forth to the ice cream shop. Desert was delicious.

To start off, they should have a pest control and find the source of the gnats. Having to eat and keeping them away from our meals was NOT what I wanted. My wife's pasta was undercooked, and my meatloaf seemed to be overcooked. Drinks were fine, but our service was just not up to par.She seemed like she didn't want to wait on us or just didn't like our type. So, spending over 150 bucks and not getting a decent meal or service is unacceptable in a so-called high-end dining establishment. 1st time and last never to return. Hopefully, someone will correct the problem (s) that exist!!

The short rib pasta was amazing. Their small plates are all delicious- get the shishito peppers! Cocktails always hit the mark, and service is always good. The truffle popcorn is something we come back for regularly. Great Italian spot with different options than your typical place!
