    It doesn't look like much but it is FABULOUS. My wife didn't like our first table. The hostess tried very hard to find another table, but they were so full she couldn't help. However, our darling server suggested we could move to the Pizza Bar which my wife loved (after I found her a high top chair that didn't wiggle (it was actually the uneven floor, but Quien sabe?!?1). After we got seated, she who must be obeyed, perked up. Our server was fabulous as was the Pizza chef who was a charming young man. The salads were fabulous especially the Caesar (Caesar himself would have been taken aback....minus Brutus that is, if you get my drift...) She had the salmon and Nis gadol hayad sham (on this day a miracle happened there}, she can't stop talking about it. I had the Gnocchi with marinara sauce and shrimp....Heavenly. If you want to have a fabulous dinner give the Verona a try

    Service was slow. The ambiance is poor since it’s located in a hotel lobby. Food was not very impressive. First time and the last time

    Jamie was an excellent server; she answered all questions and would be honest if she didn’t know what something was on the menu and asked the chef. Overall, the food was delicious…definitely will be getting the spinach and artichoke arancini again!

    We went there for our anniversary. Our meal was excellent. I had the Vernona Martini, which is an espresso martini and it was delicious. We had the tomato jam crostini based on the recommendation from our server and it was full of flavor. Our entrees were both delicious, perch picatta and my husband had a pasta dish with sausage and a spicy creamy tomato sauce. Both were very good and priced fairly based on other restaurant prices. We did have dessert, the espresso brownie with marshmallow. It was good, but maybe a little too sweet due to the marshmallow. Overall a great meal. It was louder than I expected it to be but nice. Our server was great and checked in with us several times as well as the chef. Highly recommend!
