    Food is always good, service is great, and they don’t pack you in like a bunch of sardines, so we were able to enjoy conversations with our friends.

    Our waiter Luis was outstanding…he was very helpful when ordering and a pleasure to talk to. None of our friends had ever been to the restaurant before … they all loved their dinners and I’m sure they will be dining at imperatore again. I think you’ve made four brand new customers out of our dining experience

    I dined on the swordfish special which was served on a bed of pasta and spinach in a lemon, white wine sauce. The portion of swordfish was sizeable and the sauce was not laden with butter as the server promised. My husband dined on the chicken capresi which he thought was delicious and also generously sized. We shared a large slice of chocolate mousse for dessert which was very good. The ambience of the restaurant was nice -- classy decor with minimal noise. The service was attentive.

    We’ve been here multiple times and it has always been an enjoyable experience. The ambience is elegant, the service is friendly and efficient. We characterize the menu as sophisticated regional Italian cooking. Particular favorites of ours are the house salad with beets, greens and pistachios, the oxtail ragu, and the skewered, shrimp and scallops with a delicious sauce. Because we have dietary restrictions we appreciate the wide variety of deliciously prepared fish. All in all, a gem. We recommend it without reservation.

    Super friendly service. Pasta with mushrooms, mushroom soup, creatively served Caesar salad and swordfish with crabmeat special were the meal highlights

    First time dining at Imperatore despite having wanted to stop by several times. We were very pleased. The place is quaint and cozy. The service was fine but most importantly the food was very good. The Caesar salad lacked a smidge of salt but otherwise very good. The rigatoni was terrific as was the chicken saltimbocca. All in a very nice BYOB.
