    Was there a month ago, atmosphere was great as was the food again, however service was off this time - multiple choppy points best exemplified by the after dinner drink being off and despite raising the concern, no consideration was made, barely an acknowledgment, business as usual

    An amazing experience from start to finish. The food was amazing and the service and staff were unbelievable. We will be back for sure for other Regions!! Carissa and Nicole took care of us and were great. Nicole’s explanation and pronunciation of the dishes were perfect!! And the wine director (so sorry, don’t remember her name) was amazing as well. From the recommendation as well as the conversation, so friendly!!

    We went on Valentine's Day weekend. The place is nice, staff were friendly and accommodating. I was looking for their Valentine's Day menu, but all we were offered was the journey to Lazio. The food was ok if I was honest. We've had better food experience at their other Bartolotta restaurants.
