    Spectacular service and inspired, delicious food Four of us dined at Tavernetta and shared everything, Everything was delectable, and here are a few of our favorites. The ravioli - melted in your mouth Pasta al forno - was gnocchi baked with several different cheese, a treat that was both light and had substance Bronzino - beautifully presented and cooked perfectly The service was sooo good - wait staff described dishes with complete food and preparation knowedge, and steered us to the right number of dishes to order. All the servers were gracious, personable, and always available without hovering. We will definitely be back.

    Amazing food and wonderful service, highly recommend making a reservation (we did based on a suggestion from a local friend) as it is on the smaller side. Drinks menu is also extensive and has a lot of creative options. Our family loved sharing appetizers (including a dip with pomegranate seeds!) and our teen loved her hibiscus & passion fruit mocktail as well. Reasonably priced for the quality and quantity of food, too.
