    Amazing first time. The cocktails I had were well balanced and delicious. The chicken parm egg rolls were excellent. The cherry on top was Chef Rich the owner coming over and greeting us. He was so wonderful to meet and made our night. Highly recommend

    The service was great. We sat by a window downstairs and it was pretty looking out. The food was outstanding. We started with the aricini and I had the veal milanesa. It was thin and crispy on the edges. Perfect. The drinks were nice and strong! My husband had the bolognese and he ate everything. So much meat in the sauce. Our waiter was really nice, attentive and great recommendations.

    We had a great dinner at Tresca. We were seated upstairs next to a very large party, so it was a bit loud, but it didn't bother us. The food was delicious and portions were generous. Wine was good, too. All around a great experience.
