It was a very lively evening at Senti last night. We enjoyed the Fritto Misto for an appetizer that is always perfectly cooked. Chef Antonio created a delicious special entree with sauteed scallops with tomatoes, greens and cannellini beans. I enjoyed Franco's signature lasagna that was delicious. Holly took care of all of our wines to accompany our food. We love the conviviality at the bar!

Our meal was amazing - delicious pasta with wild boar! - great wines and desserts were yummy. Very attractive and lively dining room. I’m giving service just 4 stars only because our waiter and new trainee mumbled through the specials of the day and since it is an Italian restaurant, the specials had Italian names, and it was hard to understand what was on offer, even after asking things to be repeated. It would have been helpful to have the few daily specials just printed off to permit diners to better understand the offer. But overall we had a great evening and will look forward to returning.

This was our first time at Senti and definitely will not be our last. Every dish we chose was perfectly executed. Even the pasta was delivered hot… which is hard to do! The fried artichokes were perfectly crisp, the octopus was tender, dessert was perfect. Lovely, attentive team.
