Today was my 100 visit to donatellas and it was as great as the otherhundred times. This is a classic Italian spot to visit with family, friends and dates! The ambiance is fantastic, the perfect mix between casual and fine dining. Our service experience was just as great with attentive and thorough great energy between staff. As for our food we ordered the grilled pulpo, hot Italian pepper and burrata as starters and for entrees we ordered ribye special with lobster surf and turf and fruity dim-are pollo portofino. Last, we ordered apple strudel with ice cream for dessert which was more than I could’ve imagined. Our food was tasty and fresh with no complaints. The drinks were great but Overall, this is a go to spot to add a little magic to your dining!
