    This was my 4th time here. The food is always delicious. The ambiance is great. This time, I brought my son who was visiting from college and has life-threatening food allergies to peanuts and tree nuts and is vegan. The way the staff handled his food allergies was nothing short of perfection! Our waiter, Angel, knew the ingredients of every dish inside out and flawlessly made recommendations. He even offered the coconut and pineapple mint sorbet for dessert, which are both peanut and tree nut free and vegan. My son enjoyed the dessert with so much gusto because he usually doesn’t get to have dessert. I will continue to frequent Contessa and recommended it highly to everyone I know! My son, and I think all of you for your impeccable service!
