" While I had high hopes for Da Raffaele based on the glowing reviews, my experience was mixed. The food lacked the authentic Italian flavors I was yearning for specifically the marinara sauce that tasted a bit off. However, the service was impeccable—prompt and friendly. I might give them another try but perhaps during lunch when they might serve something different. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful find! Da Raffaele is a lovely, intimate spot with an authentic Italian feel. I ordered the pappardelle with a kale salsa and the flavor was out of this world. My only critique would be the wait was a bit long, but it was well worth it to savor every bite. I'll be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)
