We came this time to celebrate a promotion in the family. All of our food was absolutely delightful! Our server was very kind and personable, and despite being placed in an area that appears to be outdoor dining in warmer weather the glass sunroom was very comfortably warm and toasty even directly beside the window even when the actual outside temperature was hovering around freezing (and super windy to boot) We quite enjoy Tuscan Kitchen and will be back whenever our next special occasion strikes!

Had a reservation and was seated right away. The hostess and server were both extremity friendly and service was outstanding. I had the Chilean Sea Bass, cooked perfectly and delicious. My husband had the filet which he enjoyed. Beautiful atmosphere, lighting is perfect, seating was comfortable.

Great experience at TK - elevated food and service, with a chic vibe. Our server Alphonso was pleasant, attentive and knowledgeable. Nice choice of wines by the glass. The ricotta gnudi app was tasty, although a bit mushy. Amazing entrees - the branzino was the best I’ve had and the duck rigatoni was perfection! We’ll def be back!
