" Visited Cafe Chianti for the first time recently and was impressed! The calamari was crispy and flavorful. I had the seafood chowder as a starter, and it was the highlight of my meal. However, I felt the main course could have been a bit more generous. I'll definitely return to try more of the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently celebrated my birthday here and it was fantastic! The service was lively and accommodating, and the food was delicious. I highly recommend their cheesecake; truly one of the best I’ve had! The only downside was the wait for our mains, but it was worth it in the end. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a fantastic meal here! The seafood options are truly fresh and cooked to perfection. The ambiance adds to the experience as well. It's such a nice treat. Definitely a great place for a special occasion or a cozy dinner with friends. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" Cafe Chianti is well-known, and for good reason! The charm of the new location with its decor leads to a great dining experience. I had the steak with a side of gnocchi which was so good. No complaints, but the dessert options should definitely be enhanced to match the rest of the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" We've been dining at Cafe Chianti for years, and we finally decided to check out the new location. The decor is stunning, and it retains the same warm ambiance we love. My favorite dish, the seafood chowder, was still a highlight. It’s hearty and incredibly well-seasoned. The only downside was a long wait for our mains, but the staff were very apologetic, making our experience a positive one overall. " (*Curated Review*)
