    Very good place for an afternoon lunch, we have a baby and it was nice and quiet for the baby. We have been here before and the food was very good.

    Firstly, the parking isn't adequate and we had to park a block away on a cold winter's evening. We arrived on time for our reservation and had to wait over 30 minutes during which time we were ignored when asking for updates. We were seated close to the entrance and felt a cold draft each time the door opened. The noise level made conversation difficult without raising our voices. We placed our orders and received our food in a reasonable time. The appetizers were good as were the drinks. The main courses were adequate but not exceptional. Overall we were somewhat disappointed as this was a special occasion dinner.

    It started when Landon met us at the entrance and was very friendly and led us to our table. Our waitress Pam who we have had before was fantastic. Made my husbands birthday dinner memorable. My daughters were there for the first time and really enjoyed it. I love when the chef comes out to ask about our meal. The food was fantastic.

    Excellent food, wine and service as usual. We dined with another couple, the 4 of us ordering different appetizers and entrees. Everything arrived in a timely manner and hot. Both the Calamari Fritti and Granchio Arancini appetizers were perfectly prepared, presented and plentiful. The 4 entrees we chose were Linguine di Zucca, Pasta Boscailoa, Spaghetti Nero and Vitello Limone. All were delicious. Large portions. We've never been disappointed with our dining experiences at Valley. Highly recommend.

    It is always a good experience when having dinner at The Valley. The food is outstanding and the service is the best we have experienced. Friendly, respectful, informative, helpful with the menu, especially for a gluten free allergy. The food is so fresh and tasty, and a good amount of food on the plate as well, and very nicely plated. Reasonable prices as well. A nice touch with the owner coming around the tables serving meals, saying hi and asking how everything is and also giving birthday wishes to people celebrating their birthdays. A complimentary sorbet for birthday dessert and complimentary limoncello shot at the end of the meal certainly is a nice touch. We are definitely going back, as I want to try almost everything on the menu.......
