    I’m extremely disappointed with my experience at Tuscan Kitchen, especially considering I had made a reservation to celebrate my husband’s birthday, just as he did for me two months ago. Unfortunately, the experience was night and day in terms of quality. The service was unprofessional and chaotic, with our server yelling and missing for long stretches. We didn’t even get a candle for the dessert, which is a small but meaningful gesture for a celebration. The entire evening felt like a mess, and it’s heartbreaking that such an important occasion was marred by poor service. I expected much better, and I certainly struggle to see an reason in which I would trust a evening and great dinner experience again at Tuscan Kitchen, when they can’t have reliable services and experiences

    The atmosphere was lovely. However, I don't know if it was because of the holiday, but service was a little slow, but our server kept us updated when possible. Our server was very knowledgeable anytime we had questions. Personally, I would just go back for drinks and an app.

    Thanks giving day two of 6 of us had soup kitchen turkey plate with generous portions of extremely thick sliced turkey breast no dark. Stuffing you needed a knife to cut , carrots as hard as just picked and dense mashed potatoes. A meal the should be culinary 101. Octopus a little tough and very salty. Rigatoni with duck ragú that were no complaints. Just not spectacular. Gf raviol that andrea thought were very good. Fusilli shrimp pesto was enjoy to. Best thing on table we charcuterie board. Don’t have to get back there anytime soon service was spotty and had to flag down wait person for grated cheese. He did one plate and bolted off again leaving two others in despair. Nice place interesting menu. Poor execution front and back of house. Maybe we just get a pizza next so not to stress the staff out impersonating professionals???
