Customer Reviews
What a delightful dinner. The restaurant is beautifully done, the lighting and art work on the walls make for an aesthetically pleasant dining experience. For starters we had the crispy calamari which was perfectly cooked. Lots of flavor. For our entree I had the Bistecca Griglia and my girlfriend had the gnocchi al Forno. Both entrees were absolutely delicious. Cooked perfectly and p packed with flavor. To end the night we shared a tiramisu which was probably one of the best tiramisu I have had. Overall the service, restaurant and food were excellent!!!
Dining street-side at Trattoria Appia during the festival, our meal presented a mixed impression. The Caesar salad's 'chicken' was notable for being a deep-fried, thinly cut item reminiscent of pork schnitzel, alongside average spaghetti and meatballs. The service was notably slow, and given the overall quality, the pricing felt excessively high, resulting in an experience that regrettably didn't merit a return visit. Edit 3-3-2026 we returned the Meatballl dish, only tried one bite, but they were nice enough to give us the cheese cake for the problems with slow service. the date was a street festival in summer of 2025 july 05
It was a Sunday night, there was 15 of us. I think the waiter was Steven. Including tip, apps a few people got wine, we paid approximately $48/person. It was quiet enough for us to have conversations. Everything was clean and neat and everyone was professional. We will definitely go back.
Very tasty Italian food and good service! We ordered the stuffed rigatoni and chitarra vongole clam pasta, and both were yummy. The pasta was homemade and you could see someone making raviolis as you entered the restaurant. The clam pasta actually had lemon pepper in the noodles, which was unique. Parking was difficult, especially with snow on the streets. It was very busy for a Saturday dinner, so a reservation is recommended.
Really pretty restaurant, but I got really bad experience on the food. And the service was very slow. Appetizers are all small and cold, we were sitting there for over an hour and the pasta we ordered was still not on the table. I don’t know what’s wrong but there were only a few cook in the restaurant and serving a few groups of people. I had the handmade black ribbon pasta and when I finally got it, part of the pasta was hot and part of them was already cold. I did not think that’s a big deal at the beginning, but the pickled sauce was just warm and really strong. It got me to the bathroom immediately and kept sending me to the bathroom until 3 am. I cannot believe what we had for a hundred dollars. This is the first time I visited and will be my last time.
