    The waitress stated that the restaurant never received our reservation. I pulled up the email to show my confirmation number then his response was give them 20 minutes. It took 45 mins to get seated. The restaurant is beautifully decorated. The table service and food were outstanding. Rough start but I definitely would recommend and eat here again.

    Made a reservation several months ago. Arrived at the restaurant at our reservation time and waited at least 10 to 15 min before the hostess even checked us in. The hostess came back and told us it would be another 20 minutes Before we would be seated. We went next door to Casa Bella waited just a few minutes and were seated. Great food and great service.

    Réservation on 7:00 PM, At 8:00 PM, still no table, we had to ask for one ourselves. Finally, we were placed in a corner by the window (single glazing) next to the door, and it was really cold in that corner. The service was friendly and the food was good, but I expected better (based on a previous review).

    This was my friend's and I third time celebrating the Holidays at Il Cortile (Thanksgiving & Christmas), and it has officially become our tradition to visit! The food is always amazing, service is great, and the overall vibe feels like home. Super grateful to the service staff for yet another great experience! Can't wait to come back next year!
