    Volare has always been excellent experience for me. The manager, and there may be more than one, that I always see there is a fantastic gentleman. A tall gentleman with short hair and glasses always in a suit. He does a phenomenal job of taking care of guest - whether they are regulars or first-time visitors. The ambience is outstanding. The menu is extensive, as are the nightly specials. The dessert menu has so many options. It's the size of a regular menu board. There's certainly has to be something for everyone. For those who don't drink alcohol, they have several mocktails available. From the free valet service, to the opportunity to check your coat into a coat locker and the very nice touch of having your leftovers remain at the reception area until you're ready to leave, Volare seems to have thought of everything. Our waitress was Danielle. She could not have been better. She was perfect!

    62nd Wedding anniversary We celebrated as a family for our mom and dad’s anniversary. Ask for Daniela she did a great job for our family tonight. All the food was great as usual. If you get the skillet cookie for dessert. I recommend getting two scoops of vanilla ice cream and skip the chocolate ice cream. Great dessert but they all are great.
