" My wife and I went to Caterina's for dinner last week and were thrilled with our experience. The server was very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. We shared the antipasto platter, which was a delight, loaded with various cured meats and cheeses. For our mains, I enjoyed the meatballs, which were rich and flavor-packed, while my wife opted for the shrimp scampi. The shrimp was succulent, and the pasta was cooked to perfection. We were so full by the end of the meal that we couldn't finish dessert, but they kindly offered to wrap it up for us. A gem of a restaurant hidden in plain sight! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was looking forward to trying Caterina's after hearing so much hype, but I was left disappointed. The food was bland, and I had the eggplant parm which lacked seasoning and flavor. On the other hand, my friends who ordered different dishes seemed to enjoy their meals, so maybe it was just an off choice for me. The service was friendly and the atmosphere lovely, but I was hoping for something more exciting in terms of flavors. I’d be open to trying more items on the menu before making a final judgment. " (*Curated Review*)

" Having heard so much about Caterina's Ristorante, my family and I finally decided to give it a shot for our Sunday dinner, and I must say we were amazed! The moment we entered, the old-school Italian decor instantly transported us to a quaint little eatery you might find in Italy. I was particularly impressed with their antipasto platter; the selection of meats and cheeses was wonderful and paired excellently with bread dipped in olive oil. For my main course, I ordered the grilled salmon, which was cooked perfectly with a hint of lemon. My wife's ravioli was stuffed generously and flavorful. The service was attentive without being intrusive, and we felt welcomed the entire time. We will be back soon for more delicious meals! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Caterina's Ristorante last night with my wife for a special anniversary dinner. We were not disappointed! The ambiance was perfect for a romantic evening. We started with the bruschetta, which was fresh and tasty. For entrees, my wife had the chicken Piccata, while I went for the veal saltimbocca. Both dishes were beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. We even got a complimentary dessert to celebrate our special day. A wonderful experience overall; we will definitely be coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Having been a regular at Caterina's for years, I can confidently say it is always consistent in quality. The service is stellar, and the food never disappoints. I've tried various dishes over the years, and the mushroom risotto is my personal favorite—creamy and bursting with flavor. The ambiance feels like you're dining at a family member's home, very warm and inviting. I cannot recommend Caterina's enough for anyone seeking an authentic Italian dining experience.

" Absolutely wonderful dining experience at Caterina's! The moment we walked in, we were greeted warmly and the atmosphere felt cozy and inviting. We ordered the seafood linguine and eggplant Parmesan, and both dishes were bursting with flavor and freshness. The portions were generous, and we even had to take some home! I appreciated how attentive our server was; she ensured our drinks were always filled and even provided great wine pairing suggestions. I highly recommend this restaurant for anyone craving genuine Italian food! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for authentic Italian food in a cozy atmosphere, Caterina's is the place to go! The bread served with garlic oil is perfect as a starter, and I highly recommend the meatball appetizer—it's a crowd-pleaser! For my main, I enjoyed the linguine with clams, and it was just divine. Large portions and gorgeous flavors made the meal a triumph. Our server was attentive and made great suggestions for wine pairings. I will definitely be returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)
