    We decided to try Molto Bene because it was on Restaurant Week, we usually don't drive that far for a restaurant but wanted to try it, were pleasantly surprised with ambiance and were greeted with a friendly smile. As our waiter told us the specials in addition to the Restaurant Week menu three of us opted for specials. When I heard Escargot for an appetizer I was hooked as well as when he said Lamb Chops, everything was delicious and we plan on returning real soon.

    Amazing food and great service. The menu has perfectly hand selected meals for everyone. A must visit for the Italian lover of scrumptious dishes. The tartufo is incredible. Enjoy this hidden gem.

    Food and service is superb ! Just wish the noise level was toned down, It’s a small place and gets loud and hard to hear when it’s busy.
