“I visited Limoncello tonight and had an absolutely wonderful experience. I was originally planning to order takeout, but as soon as I walked in and saw the cozy atmosphere, I decided to stay for dinner instead.

From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel welcome. The young man at the counter was very friendly, and the team in the dining area was attentive, professional, and genuinely kind throughout the evening.

The food was outstanding—fresh, flavorful, and clearly prepared with care. The music created the perfect ambiance, making the entire experience even more enjoyable.

Limoncello has been one of the highlights of my stay in Southampton. Great food, excellent service, and a warm, inviting atmosphere. I will definitely be returning and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience.

Thank you, Limoncello!“

“Had a wonderful Easter dinner and can’t wait to go back.“

“Service was excellent, ambiance 10/10. Food came in a timely manner and we wanted for nothing. Ordered the Cacio e Pepe, branzino and the rigatoni ragu special. Everything was delicious but having had the ragu special, the bolognese and the amatriciana pasta dishes here in the last month- they all taste the same. I'm sure the other dishes have a varied flavor profile but the meat sauces all have the same flavor and lack the oomph of a really good sauce.“

“Stumbled by this bistro in Southampton and decided to go in for lunch. To our pleasant surprise we had a wonderful meal with excellent wine pairings suggested by our server, we loved our lunch so much we decided on having dinner at their NYC location the next evening, needless to say it was magnificent! Looking forward to trying the other locations….“

It also is a cool place to hang out with a casual vibe with no pretense.. as a local realtor when people ask me, what’s a great restaurant in the north sea area Pellegrino is always the first to come to mind. Great food fantastic service a small, but vibrant bar area or what you’ll find here.

“Born in New York and grew up in Huntington. This is my First time at Romas and visiting mom from Virginia, my son has never been to any authentic New York pizza joints. So when we tried Roma’s, he had the Sicilian and he told the owner “it’s the best pizza he ever ate”. Coincidentally the owner knows Tony from our local pizza place in Virginia. Real glad we got up for some real New York pizza before leaving to go home in little ol’ Virginia.“
