    Me and my Wife had reservations for 8pm on Valentine's Day and when we arrived we were greeted by a server and were quickly seated. The space in the restaurant does seem a little tight when u arrive but the drinks and food make up for it. My wife had the chicken parmesan which was a big portion and was delicious cuz I had a piece of her food lol. I ordered the shrimp scampi and it was delicious They gave you a big portion of shrimps with angel hair pasta. The drinks were great also, I recommend the Caramel Apple drink . All and All Cafe Toscana is a great place for you and your wife or gf for a date night GREAT !! atmosphere.

    Excellent food. Service also excellent. Restaurant is in what was probably an older house so the dining area is divided in 2 areas. Dining room is upstairs. Bar downstairs with dining available there as well. There is also an outdoor area weather permitting
