Cello Italian Restaurant

Very cozy and relaxing. We didn't take that many pictures because we were enjoying the moment. Table of 5, great service and wonderful food! We drove an hour and it was definitely worth it! We had several other appetizers, the roasted garlic was amazing.

While doing business in Howell, the description of this restaurant caught my attention. Italian food sounded wonderful, so I drove to Cello on the suggestion of a Howell local. When I arrived, a sandwich board with a photo of their Sausage and Peppers, with a healthy dollop of ricotta, looked very enticing. The atmosphere is quite cozy, with booths lining inside of the restaurant. The menu is quite simple, but delicious; the service was attentive, friendly, and fantastic. The place highly encourages trying a variety of dishes and sharing amongst everyone at the table. I split the spaghetti and meatballs, the lemon spaghetti, and the mascarpone polenta (much like a rich corn grit portage). Also, since I noted that I've never been here before, our server came back with a sample of their aran

Very cute place! We went for our anniversary, and the food was good. We did a few starters as well as a few small plates to share. A small plate is enough for one or two people (depending on your appetite). The gelato was out of this word! I would come back for that alone!! The decor inside is cute, and the lighting is good so you won’t need a flashlight to read the menu (sometimes that’s hard in Italian spots)! We really enjoyed our waitress, Sloan. When we come back I’ll walk in and sing “Sloan Sloan, she’s our girl! If she can’t serve us, no one will!” Lol! But really, she made our night by helping two newbies navigate the menu and wine pairings. There is street parking out front and also a parking lot in the back! There are no stairs to the front of the restaurant making it wheelch

I am so glad we went to Cello's in Howell for dinner. We had a party of 6 adults and everything was fantastic. Our server, Emily, was very enthusiastic about the menu and restaurant itself. Her suggestions were spot on. I ordered the Carbonara that was incredible. I'm not a fan of gnocchi, but had a taste of the Wild Mushroom Gnocchi and now I'm torn of what to order when I go back. Even those that ordered the Angel Hair Marinara with a meatball added loved their dishes. The Caesar Salad could have been better but wasn't terrible just different. We're definitely a fan!

My wife and I went for the first time for a date night recently. The service was absolutely top notch and could not have been better. Friendly, attentive, offering suggestions and helping guide us through our first time there. The food itself was mostly outstanding. The special that night of butternut squash ravioli, with an apple-sage cream sauce, was the best squash ravioli I have ever had. Their marinara was perfectly blended and seasoned and we appreciated the sampler of arancini with it to start. The limoncello creme brule at the end was flavored delicately, without being too tart, and is clearly a highlight of theirs. I want to acknowledge their Caesar salad was not our favorite, as it was heavily acidic, to the point of being somewhat off-putting. However, when this was mentioned
