" Lu Nello is a beautiful Italian restaurant with classic dishes that transport you straight to Italy! We had the lasagna and finished with the panna cotta, both of which were divine. Noise levels can get high during weekends, but the food makes up for it. Will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I came in for a business lunch, and I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of food. The prime rib sandwich was generous, perfectly cooked, with great flavors. Service was rapid, and the environment was conducive to meetings. Great way to conduct business over delicious food! " (*Curated Review*)

" Dined here for my husband's birthday, and it was a hit! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, perfect for a celebration. I ordered the seafood risotto, and it was heavenly. The portions were generous, and everyone in our party left satisfied. Service was a little slow, which was the only downside. Overall, we'll definitely be back. " (*Curated Review*)

" The ambiance here is fantastic! It feels warm and inviting. I enjoyed the lasagna which was rich and fulfilling. I found myself savoring every layer. I would only wish the service was slightly more attentive as we waited quite a while for refills. However, this experience has me looking forward to my next visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" My partner took me here for a surprise birthday celebration, and I was blown away! The atmosphere was buzzing with energy, and the pasta was the best I had in years. I especially appreciated the efficient service, as our server met all our needs promptly. They even brought out a complimentary dessert for my birthday! I definitely see why this place is popular.

" I was looking for a special dinner and decided to treat myself to Lu Nello. The truffle risotto was heavenly, rich, and creamy. The staff made the experience feel upscale and personalized, even without being intrusive. We're planning to return soon to explore more of the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the chance to finally eat at Lu Nello, and it lived up to the reputation! The gelato dessert was a showstopper. My only grievance was finding parking, as the valet was full at first. Once inside, though, the warm service made us forget our trouble. It really delivered on the authentic Italian experience! " (*Curated Review*)
