    We enjoyed an excellent dinner in the new room which was beautiful. The food was delicious and the staff was attentive but not overbearing. We will definitely be back.

    Service was painfully slow. Food was far from memorable. Overpriced for the quality of what you are getting.

    Ancona Bistro offers a limited menu but the food quality and service level are quite high. The calamari appetizer was fantastic as the calamari was very tender and the marinara sauce very tasty. The main course special was cavatelli with sausage and shrimp with a light white sauce. Also, very good!
