    From the second we walked in to the time we sat down, we were met by a friendly and enthusiastic staff. We had a reservation for 4, but needed to add one more and Frank was more than accommodating. The service was on point and the food was excellent. We would highly recommend for a family dinner or a date night. Thank you to the staff for a great experience!

    I can't say enough good things about this spot. My wife and I had heard great things, but it took us a while to make our way here. I've never had Italian food this good. My wife and I ordered an appetizer, 3 entrees, and dessert, and I swear all of them were equally amazing. Meaning, your eyes roll up in your head when you take your first bite because it's THAT good. Such a wonderful experience. Thank you everyone at Sapori

    LuNello's never disappoints me. Whenever I bring a new guest to the restaurant, they always compliment the menu and their choice. The real testament to someone's pleasure with their dining experience is when they take some of their choices home with them to enjoy. Thank you to the team at LuNello's for making each visit an enjoyable one.
