    Every single staff member I interacted with was so personable and welcoming. It was such a nice experience, especially for being new. Thank you for hiring great people! The host made nice conversation walking us to the table, the server was a so nice and you could tell it was genuine. Her name was Elizabeth I would absolutely ask for her if you visit. The food came out at a nice pace, and the pricing was very reasonable! Absolutely had a wonderful experience and will be back

    They had a rough night on Christmas Day. I think the kitchen got behind from the jump. But you know what? They did the best they could with what they had. They comped our drinks and starters because of the delay, and communicated they were behind (although they mentioned it would be half an hour and I think we got our food around the 50-60 minute mark). However, it wasn’t our servers fault. Probably a series of unfortunate events of people showing up late, staying long, and the kitchen missing a couple tickets. They were working on Christmas so me and my family didn’t have to cook. The food was still fantastic when it arrived and they did what they could to make it right. I would eat here again absolutely

    We arrived early for our reservation and while we were waiting we found 2 seats at the bar. Since it was comfortable and the same menu was available we decided to eat at the bar. Good choice as Joe was our bartender and was very attentive. We started with the mussels and then I had Gnocchi, which was excellent and my wife had Gigli, also very good. We finished with Tiramisu, which was killer good. Overall a very enjoyable Christmas Day dinner.

    Classy atmosphere in Cesars Republic hotel, impeccable service with coordinated plate service by the staff. Three of us started with the arugula salad with crispy prancetta and candied lemons…yum, and the Lemon pizza…fantastic! For entrees the table had the Signature Lemon Spaghetti with shrimp…wow, the Nodi Marini Ala Vodka with a mild arrabbiatta sauce, and the Pan Seared Salmon on a bed of artichokes olives and capers…awesome!. Nice bar and outdoor seating area. Overall, a little pricey but service, food quality, and venue helped to build the value.

    Another successful dining experience at the Italiano. We opted for the Festival of the Fishes which was a special 5 course meal. Loaded with seafood, and other dishes..the only dish you pick is the entree. I ordered the Swordfish even to the server said it wasn’t her favorite, but out of the other 3 choices it sounded good. The description didn’t match what I received tho.. It looked like 3 rolled up breadsticks. The actual swordfish was very thin and wrapped around some ground Saleme…it didn’t look appealing at all. Would not suggest or tbe menu needs to be more clear. Everything else was very good, except the weird sticky cookie type crackers they served with the Rainbow cake for dessert.
