Assante Ristorante Italiano

Let me preface this by saying I absolutely LOVE this restaurant. I'm not here to bash, this is a friendly heads up/PSA. Quick story time.. We were here on Saturday Feb 21st and had a 6:30pm dinner reservation. As expected the place was busy and we had a short wait past our reservation time, no biggie. Our waitress was very friendly however as a large group felt slightly ignored or brushed off at times. I realize they are a popular and busy restaurant and we are not expecting special treatment in any way, however the wait to receive our drinks, and dinner rolls was about 20 minutes. Refills for our beverages were challenging to come by as we didn't see our waitress for some time or she was busy helping other customers. The atmosphere here is phenomenal. Everything is pretty, except unfort

Make sure you call ahead early enough, otherwise you'll be told how they don't take reservations for the same day, even though the place was 1/2 empty when we got there. Service was good, other than one of the staff commenting "you must be the table that called the same day". Like really get over yourselves, you're a slightly above average Italian restaurant. The only reason we were here is for a birthday and because the birthday person likes the place. Food was decent, about the same as previous visits. Everyone had something different and all were good. Always warm inside, making it comfy on a cold day. Other than the attitude, it was an ok experience.

Fantastic- all our pasta dishes were very tasty. Server was incredibly friendly and helpful as well. Whole staff went above and beyond to make our dining experience a great one.

My fiancé and I dined here today for dinner. He had the the Braised Short ribs over mashed potatoes. I had the flounder with artichoke. Our appetizer was the fried calamari and as part of our dinner I had a side garden salad and he the cream of mushroom soup. Pros: our server was really great. Very attentive and polite. The food, DELICIOUS! Everything about the short ribs was spot on. They were very tender and flavorful. My founder was cooked perfectly. The cream of mushroom soup was savory and hearty. Very satisfying meal. Cons: Although they require a reservation for guaranteed seating, it isn't clearly indicated on their website. I checked several times. They were able to accommodate us at the bar which is fine but I would have preferred to sit at a table. Note: if you need same day r

We visited Assante for the first time for my mother's birthday. The food was good. We were all satisfied with the appetizers and entrees. It is plentiful and delicious. I wish the plates themselves were cleaner. Some of the waitresses were also very loud and speaking inappropriately as if we weren't there. Other than that, it was a good experience. I might be back in the future.
