    Felt rushed. Took away my salad plate to serve main course. Served wine half way through our main course. Food is wonderful but you pay the price for it.

    Go here, it’s worth it. Try the lamb chops if they have them. Everything was nicely done, no complaint about anything.

    This place is the real deal! Previously residing in the NY, Philadelphia metro area, we’ve had great Italian food, and The Italiano did not disappoint! From the minute we entered, we knew this was going to be good. The staff is extremely attentive and friendly, all of them recognizing my wife’s birthday! RJ was our waiter and I can’t say enough about his professionalism and knowledge of the menu and the wine list. Excellent at his craft! Made us feel at home. The food: exceptional! Homemade pastas are cooked to perfection. We had rigatoni dishes and the veal. Delicious! Complimentary birthday cake presented to my wife, which was not expected! Excellent customer service! Our only regret: we don’t live closer! Thank you to all the staff at The Italiano, you made our night one we will never forget!

    We had a great time, went here for our Anniversary. A few shoutouts to the staff; Katie and the hostess at the front were very welcoming and made us feel right at home. Giovanni, our server, checked-in with us often and made sure the food was perfect. Highly recommend for special occasions or even just a night out for some great food.
