Best Restaurants for Handcrafted Cocktails in Southern Highlands

Breakfast was great. All the staff was friendly and our needs were met.

Our waitress Jade was the best! She was thoughtful, knowledgeable and very attentive. She made our night special! The tuna tacos were delicious but the chips were a bit too spicy for my husband to eat but he liked his shrimp cocktail. Thank you!!

This was our first time at this restaurant. The server was very helpful and she explained different things on the menu . We had calamari for an appetizer followed by scallops for our meal. Then we shared a butter cake dessert that was suggested by the server. Overall , it was a very outstanding meal. The service was excellent and prices were reasonable.

Food was amazing! We had the rib eye and an amazing pear and Gorgonzola salad with a wonderful dressing. The steak was very flavorful with a perfect sear and was a generous portion. Service was excellent and the view was nice with the Bellagio fountain in the background. We will be back when it’s warm enough to try the patio seating!

Dining at Trattoria Italia is like being transported to the real deal in Italy! There are so many authentic touches - from an incredible array of wines, real wood furnishings, servers with charming Italian accents, but most importantly, there is obvious pride in serving finest Italian cuisine! Their garlic knots are insanely fresh and delicious! Then for an opening appetizer we had the zucchini blossoms stuffed with ricotta and herbs, lightly breaded and fried. I wanted more but knew I wouldn’t have room for the entree! Once again we ordered the lobster ravioli - absolutely scrumptious! The sauce is just flat-out decadent! Our server, Rosella, was very gracious, and recommended their cannolis for dessert. We happily agreed! Rosella was unobtrusively attentive and helpful, yet we enjoyed being able to relax and enjoy a leisurely afternoon that felt like being in a trattoria in sunny Italy! We’ve been here before for dinner, when they have live musicians playing dinner music - so pleasant and enchanting! This is great neighborhood gem, and a wonderful place to bring any holiday guests if you’re running low on hostess ambition and stamina!
