    A++. One of the best meals I've ever had. Authentic Italian meaning the pasta is delicious and has a great texture; the sauces burst with flavor. We had the cheese wheel and the Chicken Parmesan. Excellent on both counts. We split a salad and still had plenty. We split a dessert (Tiramisu) but I wish we both would've had our own as it was so good. We will be back. Great place for a birthday or special occasion. Anytime really.

    We had a lovely experience and a very attentive server. We had an early reservation for a Friday (5:45) and when we arrived it was very quiet. By the time we finished our meal the room was full but the noise level was totally acceptable. The food was very good and we had amazing service. It was our first time there and we will definitely go back! There were so many things on the menu that interested me - it was hard to choose!

    I had a wonderful experience at Cortonas’s. It is truly authentic Italian food! Every dish was full of flavor and we enjoyed a nice bottle of the Syrah from Cortona, Italy!

    Cortona's never disappoints. The crab cake special was delicious and packed with crab meat. The pasta was fresh and cooked perfectly and the wine complimented everything we ate. It's always a great experience. Looking forward to our next visit already!!!

    This was our first time dining here. Went for my wife’s birthday along with our adult daughter. There was a little happy birthday card on the table (nice touch). The food was excellent. We had the cheese wheel pasta, chicken Parmesan and a pizza. The cheese wheel pasta was delicious and it was fun to watch the cooking process at the table. The crust on the pizza was fantastic (crispy and airy). I didn’t taste the chicken parm but was told it was very good as well. All were great and the portions were ample. The staff was friendly and very attentive and the atmosphere was intimate. Absolutely a great dining experience!
