While pizza and pasta are just the tip of the Italian iceberg, there is a reason these two culinary staples are the most beloved exports from Italy. Enjoy our seasonal selection just steps away from where our expert pasta chefs and dough-slinging pizzaioli (pizza makers) create dishes before your eyes.

First time at Revelry and really enjoyed it. Our server known as "Big Phil" was excellent. We went with 3 of his recommendations and all were spot on. Pretty casual spot with very good food and great service. And some nice beers too.

My wife and I had the arugula salad and the grilled octopus to start. My wife had the fish of the day (Swordfish with a pistachio crust), and I had the veal saltimbocca for the main courses. DELICIOUS!

There was a beard hair in my eggs and they made me a fresh plate. One server had the entire restaurant during breakfast- she was very sweet and did her best considering! Arguably the best part of the meal was the service. Coffee was some of the worst I’ve ever had and I’ve had iced coffee at Panera and various instant coffees. This was worse than that. We mostly dined because we were hotel guests. I’d go elsewhere if you aren’t.
