    We had a great party the service was very attentive cautious with our family, Evan thought we had few seniors on a group, that they had no patient I try to calm down, but the servers delivered if they were 10 stars I would give that to you, and the ownership should be proud of their staff Food was fantastic big portions for the price and very affordable

    My husband took me for my birthday and we had a wonderful experience here. Our waiter nick was excellent! I felt like having one of their seafood dinners and he suggested the portofino , and I'm so glad she did, it was so good!! The food was perfect from the preparation to the service of it. We will be back!! The place was busy as I expected

    Service was excellent. Place is a bit stark. Def needs a real warm & comfort / inviting overhaul. Food was good, other than my husbands fish. It was actually spoiled. My sole was delish.. desserts were meh. Definitely has potential, they need a real overhaul of the decor & a boot camp cooking class menu revamp. .

    Today was my 100 visit to donatellas and it was as great as the otherhundred times. This is a classic Italian spot to visit with family, friends and dates! The ambiance is fantastic, the perfect mix between casual and fine dining. Our service experience was just as great with attentive and thorough great energy between staff. As for our food we ordered the grilled pulpo, hot Italian pepper and burrata as starters and for entrees we ordered ribye special with lobster surf and turf and fruity dim-are pollo portofino. Last, we ordered apple strudel with ice cream for dessert which was more than I could’ve imagined. Our food was tasty and fresh with no complaints. The drinks were great but Overall, this is a go to spot to add a little magic to your dining!

    My family and I frequently dine at Donatellas for so many reasons. Everything on their menu - from apps to desserts - are amazing. Their staff is incredibly helpful. Their entire building feels homey and warm. I also love their portion sizes - I always have enough for lunch the next day (if I don't forget it in the car - lol

    Another great meal from a reliable neighborhood gem. Marvin and Carlos always make our visits special. Menu is creative and extensive with very reasonable pricing.

    We were extremely disappointed. We had been looking forward to dining there. With a reservation, they showed us to a industrial lite space apart from the main cozy dining area.... that had no other diners. The room looked and felt like an event space. It was uninviting and the waiter that showed us to the space had an unapologetic attitude of take it or leave it. We had never been there before and will not considered it again.

    Food was excellent but service was lacking. Our waiter disappeared for most of the night but apologized when he brought the check. Kind of strange.
