" One of the best Italian restaurants I have visited! The atmosphere is charming and perfect for a date night. I ordered the classic lasagna, and it was truly the best I have ever had – rich, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The garlic bread was a heavenly start, and the service was prompt and courteous. Don't skip dessert; the panna cotta was a delightful end to a wonderful meal. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" An overall good experience at Sfoglina. The food was authentic Italian, though the pasta dishes were a tad more on the expensive side. Service was prompt and friendly, but the restaurant was quite loud, making conversation a little challenging. I’d give it another go if I were in the area again. " (*Curated Review*)

" Even with the smaller portions, I would say it's worth visiting Sfoglina for the experience. The dishes are crafted with care and it shows. I appreciate how the wait staff are attentive but not overbearing. I had fresh gnocchi that was light and flavorful. The ambiance is lovely. I would come back but might order a couple of extra dishes next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations for Sfoglina and let's just say, it met most of them. The staff were friendly and efficient, the atmosphere was lovely, but I found the pasta to be slightly bland. Although I did enjoy the rich dessert, I felt the savory items could use a little more creativity. Maybe it was just a rough day in the kitchen, as I would be willing to return. " (*Curated Review*)

" Sfoglina is a beautiful restaurant that serves excellent Italian food. The ambiance is cozy yet elegant, perfect for a nice evening out. The homemade bread is a must-try, and I recommend the squid ink noodles as they were so well prepared! The dessert options are plentiful; I thoroughly enjoyed the panna cotta too! I will certainly be back to try more of the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" Amazing experience! From the moment I walked in, the vibe was inviting with a true Italian feel. My favorite was the gnocchi with a creamy sauce. Every bite was luxurious and satisfying! Our server was extremely knowledgeable and made excellent recommendations. They also surprised us with a complimentary dessert for our anniversary, which touched our hearts. I can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I loved my experience at Sfoglina! We ordered various pasta dishes, and they were delightful! Special mention to the truffle gnocchi; it took me to cloud nine. The complimentary dessert was icing on the cake! Our waiter was very engaging and helpful. The atmosphere was casual yet refined; I will certainly be recommending this place to friends and family!
