As always, the meal was outstanding! Everyone in our party had pasta as their entree. And everyone agreed it was perfection! The balsamic vinegar (which they sell), was addictive, paired with the olive oil and bread! The dessert also was divine and hit the mark!

As always, Verona’s makes us feel like family with excellent and attentive service and with the best Italian food in town. My husband had the exquisite Sea Bass special, I had their famous Lasagna and they made special, off-the-menu Tortellini Alfredo for our son. Then we gorged on the best homemade Tiramisu and I had a wonderful Cafe Verona with my dessert. Always a wonderful experience ❤️ highly recommend if you’ve never been.

Great food and ambience. It’s to bad they don’t have a bus boy to pickup plates in between courses.

Food was excellent, the fish plates were great, service was fantastic. Will return soon, only problem is they are closed on Sundays, which I work in the Bay Area and Sunday is really the only day I have the time to enjoy Modesto.
