    I thought it took longer than anticipated to receive our orders. The server (Peggy) was attentive and friendly. The food was excellent and generous. We have been to LoRusso's a number of times and are always well rewarded. Thank you for an excellent meal.
    LoRusso's Cucina on The HillResponded on January 4, 2020
    Thank you Guy for the 4 & 5 star review! New Years Eve is almost always the busiest night of the year and 2019 was no different. With 2 full dining rooms instead of one I am sure that the food didn't fly out of the Kitchen as fast as usual. We look forward to serving you again in the future at the Cucina. Our goal is to make every meal exceed your expectations. Grazie! Terri LoRusso

    We arrived early for our reservation and were guided towards the bar to wait for the rest of our party. Patty, the bartender, was very hospitable as well as quite versed on making several specialty cocktails that we had requested. She also was delightful in suggesting several items on the menu that she liked, as well as some of the more popular dishes order by other patrons. She also introduced us to Carl who would be our server that night. Carl was also helpful in guided us to dishes he thought we might like after he talked to us for just a few minutes and found out what types of food we tended to prefer. By the time we were seated we were ready for a great dining experience and were not disappointed. The food was amazing, from appetizers (try the Mushroom trio) to salads, entrees and even dessert. In our party we were delighted with the lamb chops, filet, seafood stew, and the asparagus and mushroom risotto. And finished with a nice tiramisu. Will definitely return to try more items.

    Thank you Steve for the extensive review. It is greatly appreciated! I will share your comments with Patty, Carl and the Kitchen Staff. They will all be thrilled to hear your glowing accolades. We hope to see you in 2020 and continue to try to raise the bar higher in regards to service and food. We truly appreciate your patronage and your word of mouth recommendations. Grazie! Terri LoRusso

    Dinner with a group of friends. Even with 7 in the party, we were able to have conversation at a circular table. The service was helpful with the menu and the food was terrific

    We had extra people join our dining party after we were seated and so we needed larger table. The staff quickly moved us to a larger table, even though it was a busy Friday evening. We had a party of 9 and everyone loved their food.

    Our daughter was in for the holiday, and we took her our favorite restaurant. As usual, we were met by the co-owner, Terry LoRusso, who is always delightful. Our waiter was excellent, and our meal fabulous. We have eaten there too many times to remember, and we have never had anything less a wonderful experience.

    Mark it was lovely meeting your daughter. I am so thrilled that we always meet your dining expectations at the Cucina. See you again in 2020! Best wishes, Terri LoRusso
