We had another amazing experience at Casa Pernoi! We requested Anthony and he took great care of us again. We are always so impressed with the food and can't wait to come back.

We had a fabulous evening at Pernoi! Allison our waiter was very attentive and spot on. Our food was fabulous! We started with a burrata salad and also the Greek salad. Both were outstanding! 2 of us had the eggplant special and added a meatball and the others had the bolognese and the veal scallopini. All were absolutely fantastic and we were able to take home some leftovers home! We will return very soon! We sat on the patio which was ok but we will choose to sit inside next time!

Wonderful meal from start to finish. Excellent cocktail and wine by glass selection. Beef carpaccio best we have ever had in US. Rabbit and cacio e pepe were splendid. Amanda was a great server, knew her stuff.

The food was seriously amazing. The waitstaff was really nice and on point with everything! There were multiple birthdays happening so it was a bit loud but not too much as to ruin the ambiance. The decorations were so cute and simple. Drinks were amazingly crafted and certainly not light handed!

We went for the first time to celebrate Valentine's Day early, and it was mostly great!I wasn't the biggest fan of the size of our small table nor the location since my husband had to deal with people bumping into him while walking around in the restaurant but he didn't mind that part at all.I got ginger ale, and my husband got the ginger beer since we aren't drinking much this year. Both were yummy! I actually took a picture of my ginger ale since it was so yummy ?We got the sausage and peppers for our appetitizer, and I didn't realize the peppers would actually be spicy (my fault for being a Korean American who can't eat spicy food ahaha). My husband loveeddddddd that part. Honestly, he ordered that for himself. Let's be honest here, lol.We got the mushroom pasta and the short ribs. Both were really good! Our experience was guided by our waiter, John. He was attentive to my lactose sensitivity, and I looked up that butter was ok, so we got the mushroom pasta and the short ribs, and both were amazing.The polenta that's served with the super tender short ribs was buttery and cheezy, and my husband said it's the best polenta he's ever had since they actually cooked it right.All in all, my husband said John made sure our visit was perfect, and we really appreciate how much he did for us.

This place has gone downhill so bad and has raised the prices up on everything! Not the same place I remember. The service is terrible and the food quality is bad. I Wouldn’t give them a 1 star if I could’

Have been here several times, and can never get over the fresh bread they bring to your table! My favorite is the green olive sourdough. You can’t go wrong with any pasta on this menu. They also have a great selection of wine and drinks.
The atmosphere and ambiance was the first thing I noticed. The service was good. The food was delicious. As a first time dinning I am sure it's somewhere I would recommend and also double back.

The restaurant has a lively vibe and is pretty loud in the front dining room. There is a lot of waitstaff traffic to a room at the back the is a bit disruptive to diners seated near if. The floor is also "soft" in that rear area which causes floor motion felt by the diner whenever someone steps on a certain part of the floor! Food was very good save for one dish that was extremely salty. It was replaced with apology and another entree. There was no service recovery gesture for the wait for new entree to be prepared. It was a busy night. Beet salad and banana cake dessert were excellent. Someone needs to oversee the overall operation better.

My husband and I loved this place until our last visit. A regular customer Bob came in told us we needed to leave because he reserved our spot. The bartender told us where to sit. I sent multiple messages to the restaurant sharing my experience and never heard anything back. This is unacceptable. We will not be back.

This is the real deal when it comes to the Italian food you'll eat in Italy. This is not your red table cloth Italian, it's a white table cloth place and for those interested in cheesy, heavy, tomato laden Italian-American food look elsewhere. The nearest dish is the pasta Bolognese which is light for such a hearty dish.Fantastic bread basket, incredible salads, pasta that is fresh and cooked just right, a wonderful chicken dish, and fantastic seafood, it's finished off with desserts by their fantastic pastry chef.The servers are all incredible--Tony being my favorite. The ambience is warm and inviting, and the terrace in summer makes me wish that I was in the Piazza Navona--ah you can't have it all, but the delightful Pernoi is a start.

Excellent experience. There are 3 distinct seating sections. The patio, especially lovely in warmer weather, the fireplace adds a beautiful ambiance. The bar room, lively and cozy. The main dining room, slightly more refined/elegant. Service was exceptional, paced perfectly. The food also exceptional, variety to support all diets and cravings. Highly recommend.
