   Chefs counter is a fun place to sit if you enjoy cooking. Service is top notch and every dish we have tried is delicious! We are planning to return frequently!

   We waited 15 minutes past the time of our reservation for our table. There sis no good place to wait for a table—the bar was jam packed. So that was a bummer. I made the reservation at least 3 weeks in advance. After getting seated, it took about 4 more minutes for anyone to acknowledge us. Also, a spray bottle of hand sanitizer was left on the table from a previous guest. I found that odd and creepy in that it escaped someone’s notice. We had an appetizer special that was very good. Our salads were nice sized for one person. I had the tricolore. The dressing was delicious but the radicchio was so bitter and plentiful it made the whole salad unpleasant for me. My husband enjoyed his Caesar salad. The pasta, however, was excellent. It was cooked to perfection and very flavorful. My husband had carbonara and I had the mezzaluna with butternut squash. I might go back, but I won’t be in a hurry. , Our service was average—our waitperson asked me a question and then literally interrupted me so she could make sure her food runner was headed to the right table. I would expect type of this to NOT happen in a place like this. The only outstanding aspect of the meal was the pasta. I will hope they get better at all the other things.

   Laurie, 15 minutes is a reasonable time to wait to be seated in a busy restaurant. It goes both ways, we extend a 15 grace period to show up for your reservation, and we give ourselves 15 minutes to ensure your table is ready and perfectly set, nobody is perfect, and things happen. 4 minutes to greet you, HOW AWEFUL! Hand sanitizer is provided by the restaurant and placed on every table, "ODD AND CREEPY" ????? the 15 min wait, the sanitizer, the bitter radicchio (radicchio is very bitter by the way), the 4 min wait to be greeted, the 3 star value, ambience, and service, the waiting area too small. I think we are not the restaurant for you, I hope in the future you can find a restaurant that can accomodate you. Good luck to you and thanks for giving us a try.

   Absolutely loved this place. Every food item ordered was outstanding. We all tried a different pasta and it was hard to pick a favorite.

    Food was incredible. Service was a little slower.. but they may have been shorthanded. It’s a newer restaurant after all. Best Italian in this area by FAR
