    Il Nido has emerged under new ownership as a new and different restaurant. To their longtime customers, it’ll probably never be the same again. But for people looking for good Italian food in a cozy setting, you’ll have an enjoyable night. Some of the higher priced entrees fell short. The oxtail special, apps, and dessert were a highlight.

    We had the pleasure of being served by Erica who couldn’t have been a better server. Her knowledge, attentiveness and caring for our experience was second to none. The food was delicious from the Tartar to the Halibut and the baked clams to the peppermint chocolate cake, there was not a morsel left on any of our plates. Thank you Erica!!
