Proposed to my girlfriend here and the staff made it extra special. The ambiance was great and the noise level was very quiet. The food was delicious as well. We will definitely be coming back for next Valentine’s Day!

The veal piccata was amazing. Nice lemon sauce. My wife had the eggplant which she typically doesn’t care for but loves it here.

Had a nice table in the front of house. Good service. My husband had the gnocchi, which was excellent. I had the carbonara, which was just ok. A bit too salty and not enough sauce. Definitely a good place to eat.

We celebrated a birthday at Incontro, and it was fantastic. It is a family-owned and run restaurant. From the minute you walk in the door, you feel welcomed. It was like going to a friend's house for dinner. The service was exceptional, and the food was delicious. There is something for everyone. They have a nice selection of cocktails and wine, too. I would highly recommend it.
