    Outstanding. The food was fantastic, but the service was even better! We have been wanting to dine at Tavernetta for years and finally made it for our anniversary. Every single team member we interacted with ( which was at least 7 or 8 people) wished us Happy Anniversary - something so simple was so impressive and notable. The food was wonderful - the presentation and flavors were spot on. I can not wait to go back!

    Brought my wife here for our anniversary, and I can say this was the best choice I made for when it came to having dinner. The food was delicious! and the waiter Georgia did an amazing job helping us with everything we needed, and recommended the plates we got. Which I now highly recommend getting the Ravioli Di Salsiccia. Food was amazing, service was amazing and so was the environment. My wife and I look forward to coming back!
