    Our waitress, Lauren, was fabulous. The food was excellent, tasty, warm and just as ordered - and expected. The breaded mozzarella sticks were just OK - not crispy and barely warm (not near as good as Waterman’s) restaurant and the Bread served with chopped garlic/tomato topping while we were perusing the menu (sort of a combo between Nan and Pita bread) was good, but you really should serve a tasty Italian or French bread with the meal. Those were the only minor dings. Overall a really good experience. We’ll be back.

    Great location, decor, and value for your money. The dishes they serve are all hearty and portioned well. Great for date night or even just grabbing some pizza and wine on a quiet evening.

    We definitely have a new favorite Italian place! As hard as it is for me to say this, hands down better than any place around the Hampton Roads area - yes better than that place, and yes that place too. The best. Every course was a standout, well prepared, perfectly seasoned, served with care, and flavor authentic as it comes. I lived in Italy for 7 years and this is the first place that truly took me back. Small place so reservations are needed but it will not disappoint. My take best takeaway, our server was so confident in our meal she said she would pay for it if it was not the best. We paid for our meal, and I appreciate that level or confidence. Amazing.

    On our pre valentines day dinner our four dinners drove 1:45 minutes to our go to special occasion, Aldos. We were 20 minutes early but immediately greeted and seated, and server reached the table within a minute. We were offered beverage choices and appetizers which arrived quickly and provided with menus and info on specials. Sabrina was a personable, knowlegeable, well trained and eager server who represents the high values of the restaurant. Everything was delivered to the table timely, hot , well prepared and presented. Salmon, veal and veal parmigian were all excellent and focacia bread and mussels were great accompaniments. The meal concluded with apple pie, peach cobbler and creme brulee. Our experiences at Aldos over 20 years have always been good to outstanding but this experience was the BEST ever. Thank you for a total dining experience and look forward to next visit.
