The food is delicious & our server Michael was excellent.

Food was excellent with a very nice ambiance.Service pleasant and efficient. Nice gesture of offering a dessert to birthday person.

We celebrated Valentine's Day/Anniversary at Livello this past weekend. It has become one of our favorites and we're so lucky to have it close to home. Every bite was fantastic, from the best-ever Caesar salad, which has a slight mustard flavor to the wonderful dressing, to the entrees, which we shared. The Chicken Martini was fantastic, with a bit of tangy heat from the sweet/hot peppers, and the cacio e pepe ravioli served with it were phenomenal. We also really enjoyed the spicy rigatoni a la vodka with lobster-wow!!! (Very little heat on the spice, which allowed the other flavors to shine through.) A friend had recommended the carrot cake, and it did not disappoint! The star of the dessert was the caramelized pineapple chunks around the slice and the salted caramel sauce! The service was perfect and we enjoyed the bottle of wine that we brought from home. Can't wait to dine at Livello again!

The Cook and the Cork is a huge hit for us. We went on Valentines Day to try out this place and find out what all the rave was about. They did not disappoint. Walking in, you are immediately greeted by the hostess and seated. We were given a charming table with a booth back which was super comfortable. Our server, Chris, came over, greeted us for Valentine’s Day, and asked if we had been there previously. We hadn’t so he gave us an extra welcome and asked if we wanted drinks to start. They had a Pistachio Espresso Martini on the menu which was right up my alley and the hubs had a daiquiri which he loved. The drinks came out and they were perfectly made and a great start to the evening. They had a special Valentine’s menu along with some of their regular items so there was quite a selection. We ordered the blue crab and avocado salad appetizer to start. This was on the special menu but they should definitely put it on as a regular item bc it was absolutely amazing. Blue card, avocado, greens and a delicious creamy balsamic that I find myself craving more of as I write this. I would have licked the plate clean had it been proper to do so. 😜 Next, came the main courses. I really wanted a surf and turf. They had filer on the menu and they had lobster tail on the menu but no combo. Well, here came Chris to the rescue. He had a chat with the chef and low and behold, a surf and turf dish was created. There was, of course, an up charge, and it was extremely reasonable for the amount of food, the quality of the food, and the freshness of the food. The lobster was a half pound tail and was cooked to perfection and served with a side of melted butter. The filet was topped with a reduced red wine mushroom sauce that really enhanced the filet without taking away the actual taste of the steak. Perfectly balanced. The hubs had the famous Korean Fried Chicken. Oh my stars!! Don’t walk, run fast to get this dish. It was the best fried chicken ever. Bottom line - 5 stars

We were first timer really wasn’t expecting that much of a great view. Everything was perfect to spend our Valentine’s Day with the rooftop outside experience. Will definitely go back for the outside dining.
