    Food was very good, festive and lively. We ate upstairs which was nice and a little more secluded.

    Food was good, restaurant is so busy and too many people packed in. Menu is not easy to navigate. You can’t get a pasta dish you have to order an entree before you can have pasta which is an extra $16 per person - no sharing.

    The food was amazing and so was the atmosphere, the service and ambience. Every staff member was amazing. I love this place. The only thing that would have made my night even better was if Joe and Lydia came out. LOL. I can’t wait to come back.

    The service was great and the staff cordial. I’ve eaten at Becco many times before and was always very happy, but this time I was disappointed. My companion and I ordered the sinfonia di paste. The Caesar salad was delicious and we enjoyed the penne with shrimp. The sweet pumpkin ravioli was not a favorite. My companion was also turned off by its appearance. And the tagliolini primavera had a bland to dishwater flavor - it needed garlic, at least. We shared the panna cotta for dessert. It had no flavor - vanilla would have helped. While I’ve always enjoyed Becco in the past, I’m sorry to say I won’t be rushing back.
