    We had a wonderful dinner and experience from the moment we entered until we headed outside. Great food and the service was outstanding. (They even made our 90 year old mother feel special by making sure she could easily get to our seats.)

    Always have a fabulous experience at DiPescara! Their chopped salad is so delicious! I usually get the Almond Crusted Whitefish - which I love - but tonight I went with the Chicken Milanse - perfection! And their chocolate mousse cake is the best dessert ever!!! I'm picky about my chocolate desserts, and this one is my favorite!!! 😋

    Restaurant was packed when we arrived and became even more so. We sat down in a different section and a different waiter than usual. Well, what a great guy. He got 3 tables (one of 14, on of 2, And a 4 top) within 10 minutes. First table had drinks and appetizers almost immediately. The 4top did the same. We were the two top. Ordered drinks. Our order for dinner was last but served first. Then it was the table of 14. And the last person to order was served dinner. Everything was delicious and served hot. This restaurant is our favorite. We eat here at least once a week. Food is always delicious. Service is top notch. And the management always has time to visit your table and make sure everything was to your liking. A+
