Lorenzo’s features Northern Italian fare with a touch of contemporary flavor. Look to our menu for some of the classics as well as some modern Italian cuisine less prevalent on The Hill. Look forward to experiencing the authentic house-made gnocchi and risottos; or our signature dish, braised Ossobuco; our guests' ever favorite, Chicken Spedini; or a couple of the staff favorites, the Grilled Barramundi or Fabulous Veal Picatta. At Lorenzo's the atmosphere is classy and laid-back. It is the type of restaurant where you can have a nice business dinner or enjoy a meal with the family. We offer two beautiful private rooms, The Boardroom, which seats up to 14 or The Chefs Table which seats up to 8. You may choose to enjoy our patio on a beautiful day and savor one of the great Italian wines off our extensive wine menu. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable no matter what meal or day you visit. We look forward to showing you all we can offer at Lorenzo's Trattoria.

We like to sit in the bar and service is always great. There’s a nice selection of starters, salads, pastas, entrees and desserts. Their house salad is always good. Our dinners ranged from a lemon chicken dish to the scallop special to lamb so there definitely were some higher priced items. There were 7 people; 6 eating. Most had a salad or soup plus an entree and there were 2 desserts. With drinks and wine (we should have ordered a bottle instead of by the glass but didn’t realize three would be drinking the same wine) the bill was $500+ plus tip.
