" Had a wonderful dinner last night at Cafe Italiano! The bruschetta was wonderful, and I was blown away by the quality of the lobster pasta. Everything felt very fresh and well-prepared. The wait staff was great, very friendly but not overly familiar. The only slight downside was the noise level; it was quite loud, making conversations a bit challenging at times. Overall, I would rate it very highly and hope to return soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just celebrated my anniversary here, and let me tell you, the experience was magical! The waiter brought out complimentary sparkling wine to celebrate. The seafood risotto was out of this world! So creamy and loaded with fresh seafood, which truly speaks to their authenticity. Plus, the owner made rounds to check on all tables that evening, which added a personal touch. This place will always hold a special place in my heart. " (*Curated Review*)

" Cafe Italiano has a wonderful atmosphere, perfect for romantic dinners. The staff here are attentive, and the owner is often around to ensure everything is up to standard. The osso buco was exquisite, but I found the portion sizes a bit on the smaller side for some dishes. Still, the quality of the food is undeniable! " (*Curated Review*)

" My visit to Cafe Italiano was a mixed bag. The service was prompt and friendly, but my meal was underwhelming. The shrimp scampi was more garlic than shrimp. The ambiance is inviting, but my overall dining experience left me wanting more. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’m not sure how to describe my experience. The restaurant looks beautiful, and the decor is lovely. However, the food did not hit the mark for me as it felt like they were trying too hard to be fancy. The pasta servings were quite small for the price, which left me unsatisfied. Service was fine, but the quality of the meal was disappointing compared to the expectations from the reviews. " (*Curated Review*)

" A wonderful hidden gem! The eggplant parm was just magnificent! Every bite was a treat. In addition, we really enjoyed the atmosphere and the staff's kindness. Very accommodating—they suggested a dessert for us that was out of this world! I will definitely return. " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to Cafe Italiano expecting a lot given the reviews, and it did not disappoint! My friend recommended the lasagna, and it was mouthwatering. I also enjoyed the tiramisu for dessert, which was just the right amount of sweet. The place is charming with good decor, making it perfect for any celebration. Every server we encountered was friendly and welcoming. I'm looking forward to my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)
