    Il Nido has emerged under new ownership as a new and different restaurant. To their longtime customers, it’ll probably never be the same again. But for people looking for good Italian food in a cozy setting, you’ll have an enjoyable night. Some of the higher priced entrees fell short. The oxtail special, apps, and dessert were a highlight.

    We have been here many time. It’s one of our favorites but Last night our drinks arrived at the same time as our meal. The only complaint I have is that we sat down at 8 o’clock and by 845 we were done. I feel that the kitchen was rushing the food out. Food was just ok last night.

    Everything here is delicious. Guarantee you could pick anything from the menu at random and enjoy it. Second time here and unfortunately they were out of rib eye for the night. I did end up with the coffee rub pork and it was one of the best pork dishes I’ve ever had in terms of flavor. We had Wagyu meatballs, spicy brisket rigatoni, coffee rub pork, gelato. All delicious and would recommend. Pistachio gelato was amazing. All staff is very friendly and attentive. 10/10
