The veal piccata was amazing. Nice lemon sauce. My wife had the eggplant which she typically doesn’t care for but loves it here.

Had a nice table in the front of house. Good service. My husband had the gnocchi, which was excellent. I had the carbonara, which was just ok. A bit too salty and not enough sauce. Definitely a good place to eat.

We celebrated a birthday at Incontro, and it was fantastic. It is a family-owned and run restaurant. From the minute you walk in the door, you feel welcomed. It was like going to a friend's house for dinner. The service was exceptional, and the food was delicious. There is something for everyone. They have a nice selection of cocktails and wine, too. I would highly recommend it.

My wife had the osso buco and I had the short rib special. Both were delicious. We had the Montepulciano wine which complimented the entrees. The staff is attentive, caring with good senses of humor.

The food here is like everything else at Incontro, adequate. Nothing special or memorable but nothing sub par. The service was a bit lacking with only one waiter and not enough attention. The noise level was louder than normal as there were two tables with babies and another with someone who couldn’t stop coughing. Overall there are better Italian restaurants in Danville so explore your options.
