    The food is always delicious. Love the ambiance. Thursday Night Football crowd was energetic and loud but I like that even if I’m in the dining room. The restaurant was full. Our server was training a new server. The trainee was sweet and helpful. The server was busy and didn’t always attend to us in a non stressful manner. Was quick and on to another guest. I get it though. I used to be a server and the anxiety mounts in busy situations. Overall a great restaurant. Will always go back when in San Pedro.

    The pork ravioli was delicious! Calamari appetizer a must. You can split a Trani salad. The staff always friendly and knowledgeable. It makes sense why this place is so popular. Make sure you’re okay with high noise level - very loud ambient background reverberating thru your conversation. We move to bar area to hear each other better. All and all a good evening!

    Trani's is our "special" place, where we can get fantastic food and excellent service. They know how to make you feel special. We've been going there for birthdays, anniversaries and other special occasions for years and plan to continue in the future.
