" I had the most wonderful experience at Ristorante Ottaviani after hiking nearby. It was like stepping into a cozy Italian home. The gnocchi they served was phenomenal; I could taste the love that went into it! The owner came by to chat with us, highly recommending the margherita pizza. I was pleasantly surprised by how authentic it tasted. The wine selection they offered was also impressive, which complemented our meal perfectly. Overall, an amazing stop on our journey. " (*Curated Review*)

" Dining at Ristorante Ottaviani made me feel like I was in Italy! The rich flavors of the dishes were delightful, and it was nice to see the staff genuinely caring about their guests. The seafood risotto was creamy and packed with fresh seafood, while the bruschetta was a perfect starter. The only downside was that I wished the portions were a bit larger, especially at those prices. However, the quality more than made up for it. I’m definitely coming back again! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been to many Italian restaurants, but Ristorante Ottaviani stands out! The combination of excellent food, warm service, and charming decor made for a lovely evening. The fettuccine alfredo is rich and creamy—truly comforting—and the portions of bread served on the side are delectable. I highly recommend this place for anyone searching for an authentic Italian experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Our dinner at Ristorante Ottaviani was nothing short of special. We celebrated our anniversary here and the staff went above and beyond to make it memorable. From the lovely candle-lit tables on the patio to the delicious handmade pasta, every moment was perfect. Our server educated us about the dishes, recommending the veal scallopini, which was exquisite! We were also treated to a complimentary dessert, which was a sweet touch. Can’t wait to return for another celebration. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had mixed feelings after my visit to Ristorante Ottaviani. While the atmosphere was lovely and the server friendly, the food quality was a bit hit or miss. The lasagna was well-made, but the chicken piccata was overcooked and lacked flavor. I definitely appreciate their effort in sourcing fresh ingredients, but I expected more consistency. Perhaps my next visit will be better. Overall, I would recommend, but with a note of caution. " (*Curated Review*)

" Although the food at Ristorante Ottaviani was good, my experience wasn't as great as I had hoped. The service was friendly, but we seemed to wait a long time for our main courses, which made us miss our reservation for a show. While many people rave about their pasta dishes, I thought they were just average. The ambiance was nice enough, but I wouldn't necessarily come back here if in a hurry. " (*Curated Review*)

" Stellar dining experience overall! First time here, and it won't be the last. The staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. I opted for a popular dish—the veal marsala—and it did not disappoint! Every bite was a burst of flavor. I'd recommend making a reservation, as they tend to get busy during weekends. The outdoor seating with live music was a delightful touch as well. Can’t wait to visit again! " (*Curated Review*)
