" We celebrated my wife’s birthday at Buona Sera a couple of months back. The service was excellent, and the food was superb. They even brought out a special cake for her, which was a thoughtful touch. Everyone in our party remarked on how good the portions were, and we truly enjoyed our entire dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Good experience overall. The food was great, and we had a wonderful server who made the experience even better. I had the chicken cacciatore and it was delicious! The ambiance was perfect for a date night, though a bit noisy at times. Will be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" A lovely little gem of an Italian restaurant! I was impressed with the quality of the dishes and the quality of the service. The ambiance is very welcoming, but sometimes the noise level gets a little high. The calamaris were the highlight for me! Can't wait to return and bring my family with me. " (*Curated Review*)

Highly recommended! " (*Curated Review*)

" While the food was good, I was really impressed with the service! Our waiter was attentive and friendly, making sure we were well taken care of. The portions are large, so be ready to take home some leftovers. The chicken marsala was tasty and the ambiance was inviting, making for a nice evening out. " (*Curated Review*)
