" Orto Trattoria has become my go-to place for special occasions! The modern twist on classic Italian dishes is simply amazing. Each visit, the food has been impeccable; the staff is genuinely friendly and helpful. I particularly enjoyed their themed tasting menu, which allowed us to sample various dishes. It's also a great place for wine enthusiasts with an extensive selection. I highly recommend you check it out if you're in the mood for authentic Italian cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" I went for a romantic dinner with my wife, and we had a lovely time! The food was exceptional, especially the duck confit which melted in the mouth. The dessert, a hazelnut mousse, was the perfect end to the meal. I appreciated the vintage Italian music playing softly in the background, enhancing the ambiance. The only downside was the wait for a table, but it was worth it. A cozy atmosphere perfect for a date night. " (*Curated Review*)

" Orto has earned its rave reviews for a reason! I visited with friends for a dinner, and every dish surprised us with how delicious it was. The pasta was homemade, and you could tell! For dessert, I recommend sharing the chocolate budino – it was heavenly! I encountered minor service issues, but they were not substantial enough to detract from the amazing food experience. This place should definitely be on your radar if you're in the area. " (*Curated Review*)

" I enjoyed Orto last month during a work dinner, and I had a mixed experience. The service was consistent, hitting all the right notes of friendliness but a bit slow during peak hours. The food was mostly wonderful; I particularly liked the seafood pasta which had a nice balance of flavors. The restaurant itself has a modern flair that I appreciated. I would definitely return but at a less busy time to enhance the experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved dining at Orto Trattoria! The decor was stunning and added to the whole Italian experience. If you love pasta, this is the place to go. We ordered both the mushroom pappardelle and the squid ink spaghetti; both were out of this world delicious and beautifully plated! The service was friendly, but sometimes we felt a bit neglected during the dinner rush. Overall, a fantastic meal that’s definitely worth a visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently visited Orto for a birthday celebration, and it was mostly an enjoyable experience. The service started a bit shaky as we had to wait for drinks, but our server was quite friendly and eventually got things right. The food was delightful, especially the pasta dishes which tasted almost homemade. We loved the tiramisu for dessert. If you're looking for some authentic Italian dining, Orto won't disappoint. Just a little more attentiveness from the staff would elevate the experience even further. " (*Curated Review*)

" Our dinner was a rollercoaster of great food and slow service. We started with the calamari, which was incredible, soft with a wonderfully seasoned batter. However, we waited too long for the main course to arrive. When it did, the lasagna was spectacularly rich and true to its Italian roots. The atmosphere could be improved—perhaps too dim for my taste. Even though the service was lacking, the food made up for it. I might return hoping for a better service experience next time.
