Beyond amazing. Sharon was the best server ever. She made the experience memorable. Food was outstanding and did not disappoint. The butternut squash soup with marshmallows was decadent. The squash pasta was even better. The boots with the fir warmed me up on a cold night. Key lime pie was the best I've had in a while!

My partner and I were celebrating our anniversary and the Tagliata staff were so celebratory by writing us a personalized card and bringing out complimentary Prosecco. The service was outstanding—genuinely one of the best experiences we’ve had at a restaurant. The food was delicious and some of the best, most authentic Italian we’ve tasted.

What an amazing find. Not in the heart of the areas everyone knows, and read about, but in an area that's so much better. Amazing people, deliciously fresh dishes and unique (and I mean that in a good way!) cocktails. First visit was last week, just went again this evening...repeat !
