From the owner Leonardo Landini "When I decided to open Ristorante Illando, I had a vision in my head...my cozy house back in Firenze, Italy; my family dining table filled with the food I grew up with. Now I can surround you with the warmth of my Italian home and an authentic Italian meal here at Illando. Benvenuti e buon appetito a tutti!!"

    It was a great place to have a very nice dinner in little Italy. It is an old establishment and should be entertained. We enjoyed the Happy Hour appetizer with a great glass of Pino Grist. I had the lobster ravioli with vodka sauce and it was excellent! The service was great and our server was helpful with his suggestions. .

    Overall, the very average experience, the food was OK not what I would call. Terrific but not bad. Either some of their appetizers were overpriced, but the main courses were priced accordingly I found the food to be a little overcooked. I given it an overall 3 1/2 stars as it was an average eating experience.

    Great food and very hospitable staff. Wish we could have ordered and received our food a little faster, as we were dining with our kids.
