    First time dining experience on Christmas Eve 2024. Absolutely phenominal from start to finish! We picked our table from what was available even! What a nice touch?! Our cocktails exhibited a perfect mixologist expertise and brought promptly to our table. We started with the calamari and shrimp and the arancini appetizers which were delicious, followed by our entrees, the salmon over spaghetti squash and fettucine alfredo. Everything tasted amazing with exact seasoning, temperature and presentation. We were quite blown away by the whole experience in the restaurant. We took home our desserts and weren't as excited about them, however, we will definitely be back for another date of dining in the near future!

    WOW! Loved the house made giant asparagus tortellinis with mushrooms & a beautiful white sauce. It was a special that night and I hope they have it again. I could eat that everyday. My guest had a veal dish that he was equally impressed with. I also had oysters on the half shell from ME & MA. Both very different. They managed to serve them with the oyster liquor and the best Mignotte I’ve ever tasted. I usually enjoy oysters with just a squeeze of lemon, but the mignotte was too good to pass up. Our server Skylar had great rhythm in his service and was great.

    Group of 6 for dinner; table was ready when we arrived. Once again, as always, the food and our server, Kevin were outstanding! Had the time to enjoy our friends and food without being rushed. Fabrizio’s kitchen did a great job with the food and Kevin really knows the menu to recommend an item or guide someone less familiar with the menu to an item they will enjoy. Angel is always pleasant with a greeting when you arrive and the bussers also gave us enough “space” to enjoy our food without making anyone feel rushed. All in all, a great night of food without being rushed friends. Thank you to everyone at Chianti for helping make that happen.
