" Our family decided to try Passero for dinner. The burger I ordered came highly recommended, and though it was good, it wasn't exceptional. My wife's pasta was much better, showcasing the restaurant's Italian flair. The service was good, albeit slightly slow; we had to wait a bit for our drinks. Overall, it was a pleasant experience with a delightful atmosphere and good food, but a few hiccups in service. " (*Curated Review*)

" Dining at Passero was a mixed bag. Although the ambiance was inviting with vintage Italian art and charming decor, my entrée didn’t impress. I ordered the homemade ravioli, which sadly lacked seasoning. The garlic bread was delightful, and the service was friendly, but I wasn't completely satisfied overall. Perhaps it was just an off night? " (*Curated Review*)

" Passero has become our go-to restaurant for special occasions! The staff went out of their way to accommodate our requests for a vegan friend, and the pasta selection ensured everyone found something delicious. The atmosphere is always buzzing with good energy, making it a lovely venue for celebrations. The desserts are a must—especially the panna cotta! " (*Curated Review*)

" Feeling nostalgic, I went to Passero hoping for a taste of traditional Italian food. I ordered the lasagna and it took me right back to my grandmother's kitchen—delicious! The ambiance was lovely and the staff extremely friendly. I noticed a hint of olive oil on the bread, which added a nice touch to the meal. Overall, I had a delightful time and highly recommend it! " (*Curated Review*)

" Our experience at Passero was pleasant but had room for improvement. The food was delicious overall—loved the arancini! However, my entrée took too long to arrive. The server apologized sincerely and suggested an appetizer while we waited, which was a nice touch. The ambiance was warm, perfect for a date night. I’d give this another chance.

" Passero is everything you hope for in an Italian restaurant! Their homemade pasta is delightfully fresh, and the flavors are genuine. My spouse and I enjoyed trying different dishes, from the risotto to the various antipasti. There are also great vegetarian options which was a plus! The only thing was our table was a little wobbly, but that didn’t affect our overall experience. Can't wait to go back when we’re in the area again! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the pleasure of dining at Passero for the first time last night. I was immediately struck by the decor—chic and inviting. Our server was prompt and knowledgeable about the menu. I tried the rabbit special, which was incredibly tender and packed with flavor. I appreciated the dessert menu as well; we went with the cannoli, which was a wonderful finish to the meal. If you’re looking for a nice Italian restaurant, I can’t recommend Passero enough! " (*Curated Review*)
