    I don’t even know where to start. I guess with the appetizer of meatballs my wife & I chose. The most tender & flavor loaded meatballs we’ve had. I wish I could get a Christmas stocking full of them. On this evening my wife had the Veal Marsala & I ordered the Veal Parmesan. Both dishes flavor depth was amazing. Both of us ended up sharing are dishes they were so delicious!!!! Everything we have had so far here, is way over the top, that we can’t wait for our next experience. Did I mention how great the service is. They make you feel like you’re their only customer, so personalized. The drinks would be hard to beat anywhere. If you want outstanding dishes, this is where you want to be. We eat out all over the world & La Torretta is at the top.

    Food was excellent. We sat on the patio and were ignored most of the night. It took forever for waitress to take our order. The patio is pretty at night, with fire warmers and string lights.

    Ate dinner outside. The most comfortable chairs ever. Maybe the same indoors, but I have no knowledge of that. Also, a lot quieter, naturally. Our server was extremely helpful. No rushing. The food was great: we had shishito peppers and clams for starters, then the trout and the branzino. My husband liked my branzino better than his trout, just because it was almandine and he felt it an unnecessary coating. Then, great flourless chocolate dessert. Drink were good goo. Would return without a doubt because the menu had so many offerings, it would be great to try them all.
