    Food was priced very well. It wasn’t the best Italian but a great value. The dining room was very, very loud and tables are quite close together. We had great service!

    We always enjoy going to DiFabio’s when we are in town. Great atmosphere, great service and amazing food. Tonight was no different. The filet was cooked perfectly and the chicken Parmesan melted in your mouth. Throw in the house wine, the lemoncello and they were the icing on the cake. We topped our evening with the flourless chocolate cake. YUM. Highly recommended if you like Italian food.

    My husband and I visited on Valentines night. They had reservations to capacity all night, but the food and drinks still came out with no delay. The stuffed mushrooms were amazing and our entrées were (chicken Marsala and a filet with Alfredo pasta) cooked to perfection. We loved the music and location. The service was superb and everyone was so nice. We will definitely visit again!
