    Although my custom note was a little humorous, the service team was FANTASTIC. As soon as we walked in, said our reservation and was just greeted with smiles. That was the best service I've had in any industry in quite some time. Katia was just the absolute best! Very personable, every single person. The food, oh yes the food! Food was seasoned quite well and filling! Another CRG homerun, we live only a few minutes away so this might have to be in the rotation!

    We love Nesso! We've never had a disappointing meal. Everyone should try the Bruschetta. It's magnificent. As always the service by Jay was outstanding. Thanks to Alex for picking out the excellent wine.
    Nesso Italian KitchenResponded 5 days ago
    Thank you so much for sharing! Although the bruschetta was a special, it seems a lot of people enjoyed it. We may have to add it to the menu at this point! It was a pleasure meeting you and am happy you both had a wonderful time with us this weekend. We look forward to seeing you again soon!

    Loud and inattentive server. We had to wait 20 min to from the bill being dropped off to it getting picked back up. Tasty food but very loud where we were sat, we could not hear the server or each other very well

    My daughter and myself both had pasta dishes. The pasta was sticky and had no flavor. Neither of us finished our dishes.
