   Very noisy! Thankfully, we were able to get a table outside; otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to hear each other at all. Reception desk service was excellent. Bar service was cordial but slow (understandably, since it was Saturday evening and the place was packed). Table service was inattentive and kitchen service was sub-par. Salad came out with onions (I'd clearly specified NO onions), but replacement salad was supplied fairly soon. The polpette (appetizer meatballs) were absolutely delicious, the highlight of the entire meal. Husband liked his tagliatelle alla bolognese. I was keen for the branzino special, even though it was served "whole fish" (head, tail and skin still on but bones supposedly removed), but it was very disappointing. The fish was stuffed with citrus slices so it tasted delicious, and it was properly cooked, but there were still lots of bones. The "seasonal vegetables" that the fish was served with were just sauteed red peppers (yuck), onions (arrgh!) and zucchini chunks. It also took an unusually long time for the main dishes to come out, even though the dinner crowd had significantly diminished by then. We noticed several people at both the indoor bar and the one outside had ordered pizzas that smelled great and looked good, and we ended up wishing we'd just ordered a pizza instead.

   Outstanding meal. We sat in the chefs area and watched the kitchen work. A little louder than other areas, but we liked it. Had the Arugula salad, lobster ravioli and carbonara. All were outstanding.

   The food was absolutely exquisite. Perfectly prepared. I could not have been happier. The service was also attentive. However, the noise level precluded having table conversation. According to my app, the noise reached 98 dB. with a warning that sustained noise at that level can cause permanent hearing loss.

   The food was amazing, as was the service. We very much enjoyed the evening. It was considerably too cold in the restaurant, but thankfully I had a sweater, which I wore the entire time. Other patrons searched out jackets and sweaters, too. The music was too loud as well— it was sometimes difficult to have a conversation . Regardless, can’t wait to return!

   This was our 3rd visit to Vitolo. We were not disappointed. I think their pastas are the stars of the show here. I’ve not had a fish dish that I’m thrilled with yet…the chicken Parmesan can serve four! Delicious! Our server was lovely and the ambiance is exceptional. We will certainly be back.
