    Excellent food with outstanding service. Ambiance and reasonable pricing makes this restaurant a favorite before a show at DPAC.

    Absolutely recommend the TAJARIN ARRAGOSTA. One of the best pastas I’ve had in while. Bursting with flavor.

    The food was very good. My wife rarely eats risotto at restaurants as she better than most restaurants but she tried it and cleaned her plate and told me it was soupier than she is use to but she very much liked it. I had the catch of the day which was very good. The restaurant is nice and cozy. Our waiter was very attentive. We will be coming back.

    This was a perfect place for a pre-show dinner! The vibe is the perfect blend of casual and elegant. The service was excellent and the food was delicious! Our server was friendly, attentive, and gave great suggestions once we told her it was our first time visiting. The salad was super fresh and bright, the pasta was delicious, and the steak was perfectly cooked and tender. We will definitely be coming back!

    It was a birthday celebration for my husband and you did not disappoint. We asked our son and daughter-in-law to join us and they also enjoyed themselves. We’re always looking for a new place to try out and tonight was Cucciolo.
