    Excellent. We had an earlier reservation which turned out just fine because It got to be a bit noisy for our group. Despite that everything was excellent. We’ll be back!

    Our waitress was wonderfully attentive and was training a new employee but she was literally up in our face every 5 minutes . Made it hard for my group to carry on conversations and gave the whole dinner an unrelaxed and rushed vibe which didn’t go well with my glass of red wine and girl talk ! Please help your waitstaff understand the rhythm of a dining experience in a more nuanced way . Food was amazing as always !

We strive to provide excellent service and we're disappointed to hear that we fell short this time. We suggest to all tables to order 2-3 dishes per person in order to get the full Pelato experience.

    We didn’t really know what to expect before we decided to eat here. You order small plates and share them. When you arrive each dining member has a plate already at their seat. You just order… food comes out fast and in no particular order. I enjoyed it a lot however it’s costly for the amount of food on each order. Good experience, we will definitely go back.

    First trip to Pelato. The food comes in small portions and is meant to share. Everything was fantastic, flavors were excellent. The Burnt Broccolini and the CAMPANELLE SHRIMP LIMON, were amazing! The campanelle was the best pasta dish I have eaten in a long time, we almost got a second plate of it. Dining room is open but not too noisy. They took care to seat people spread out before it filled up so conversation was not difficult. Parking is paid but cost was minimal IMO. Our server was very knowledgeable and friendly. Overall a great experience.

    Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled that you had a great first experience at Pelato and that you enjoyed our small plate concept. The burnt broccolini and campanelle shrimp limon are definitely guest favorites, so we’re glad they stood out to you. It’s great to hear that the dining atmosphere and service added to your experience as well. We truly appreciate your support and look forward to welcoming you back for another meal—maybe even that second plate of pasta next time! Best regards, Kayla Ricaud Pelato Restaurant Manager

    We had a great experience at Pelato with our larger group. We were there to celebrate a birthday and thought our server Jordan was super helpful with the amount of people we had to get the right amount of food ordered!
