" Recently, I visited Trattoria Itrulli for a family gathering. While the ambiance is friendly, our experience was marred by slow service. It took far too long to get our drinks and food. However, when the food finally arrived, it truly impressed us! The seafood pasta and the classic marinara were incredible and showcased the authenticity of the meals. The wait staff was polite and apologetic. Despite the delay, I would still recommend it, especially for the food. " (*Curated Review*)

" My visit to Trattoria Itrulli last weekend was just average. The food was fine but lacked that wow factor I was hoping for, considering the glowing reviews. The service staff was friendly but slow to attend us. We ordered a pasta dish and some appetizers, all of which were decent but felt slightly under-seasoned. The restaurant has a nice vibe and it's family-friendly though. I might give it another try, but my expectations will be tempered. " (*Curated Review*)

" Our dining experience at Trattoria Itrulli was a mixed bag. On one hand, the food was excellent, especially the seafood risotto, which was rich and packed with flavor. On the other hand, we faced quite a long wait for our table and service could have been more attentive throughout the meal. The ambiance was cozy and charming, perfect for an Italian restaurant. If they can improve their service, it would easily be one of the best spots in town. " (*Curated Review*)

" Last night was a delightful experience at Trattoria Itrulli! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the service was friendly. I started with the bruschetta, which was topped with fresh tomatoes and basil. For my main dish, I opted for the seafood linguini. The pasta was cooked al dente and the seafood was fresh, with a rich sauce that complemented it well. What really stood out was the tiramisu for dessert — light and fluffy, it was the perfect ending to a wonderful meal. I will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" My partner and I headed to Trattoria Itrulli for a date night and it was fantastic! The atmosphere was warm with a charming Italian vibe. I ordered the fettuccine alfredo and my partner had chicken piccata. Both were exceptional! The portions were generous, more than enough to share. Our server was attentive without being intrusive, which made our experience even more pleasant. We ended the night with a classic tiramisu that was the perfect balance of coffee and sweetness. Can’t wait to come back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing so much about this restaurant, I paid a visit with my family. The initial wait was a bit longer than expected, but once we were seated, the experience improved markedly. The pasta we ordered was delicious and tasted authentically Italian. The marinara and the dessert options (especially the panna cotta) were highlights from our meal, making the wait worthwhile. I’d come back for seconds anytime! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had quite the fantastic meal at Trattoria Itrulli recently. I tried their signature dish, the lobster ravioli, and it was incredibly decadent! The sauce was creamy, and the ravioli was made to perfection. However, service slightly lagged at times, and I had to remind the staff about my drink order. That said, the food’s quality definitely made up for those minor hiccups. I will return for sure! " (*Curated Review*)
