    The food and service is always outstanding here. The Caesar salad is incredibly fresh with the highest quality romaine you can come by. The scallops puttanesca was delicious. Perfectly cooked scallops. And the tiramisu is the best I’ve ever tasted. Extremely rich and decadent.

    Had an 8pm reservation for a birthday. Was disappointed we couldn’t get dessert because the fryer was turned off. We would have ordered it earlier if we knew.. the lights were turned on full blast at 9:40pm despite there still being a 6 top and another 2 top finishing up their drinks. We felt rushed after spending $250. The food is still good..

    My son and his fiancee recommended Ravello's. They visit this restaurant often for special celebrations. My husband and I dined there this weekend and had a fabulous experience. The food was excellent as well as the service. Be sure to make a reservation!

    Food was delicious. Service was excellent. All the staff was super friendly. Very small place so we did have to wait for our table even though we made a reservation. But they were so nice about it, brought us a limoncello as we sat down. And even brought us some cannolis to end our meal. Highly recommend 👍🏼

    We had delicious food (arancini and chicken saltimboca were standouts) while sitting at the bar on a snowy evening. The atmosphere was cozy and lively, with cheerful service. Looking forward to going back soon.
