   I had all intentions of just going in enjoying, so I didn't take any pictures, but trust me when I say it was as beautiful as it was delicious. We were super impressed with how filled to capacity. The restaurant was and it was lively with groups of people. Although it is BYOB, we chose not to bring wine. We started our evening with a dozen clams on the half shell, which were perfect. Plus, our meal included complimentary fresh hot crusty bread, a slice of bread drizzle with olive oil, and beautiful leafy green salads before the meal.. We stuck to the special offerings of the evening since there were plenty of choices there. My husband had the short ribs with risotto while I had the branzino served with potatoes and spinach. We ended the meal with the limoncello cake, one of over a dozen choices brought to the table for us to select from. If you were looking for a small, intimate, and beautiful restaurant with delicious food and plenty of ambiance, this is the place.

   Simply marvelous! The veal saltimbocca was delicious, the amaretto cake incredibly fine, and the presentation of limoncello sorbet gave a delicious treat a whimsical element. I’ll be returning today after visiting the Paul Revere House, coffee and dessert.

   I can’t believe it took me so long to try this place. The location (at the end of a strip mall) deterred me but so glad I finally did! Excellent authentic food like I grew up eating and great prices. Looking forward to going again.

   Limoncello never disappoints, always top notch food and service. Food is delicious and servings are huge. Enough for a second meal.

   This was our first time back to Limoncello in a while and we were pleasantly surprised by the improvements in the food and service. Saturday night was packed and we were squeezed into a table for two next to a family gathering who provided great entertainment! The Limoncello salads were excellent and my grouper entree was moist and flavorful. My wife's veal dish was flavorful but tough. A wide selection of desserts made a selection difficult but the cheesecake offerings were very good. Service was attentive and paced very well. Pricing for our meal was reasonable. We will be back!

    We love dining at Limoncello. The staff is always pleasant and helpful and the food is consistently excellent. They never rush you out the door and always offer a complimentary sip of sambuca or limoncello after dinner. We will continue to make this a regular dining stop for both casual and special occasions.
