   Alaina, our server, was just INCREDIBLE. Made sure we had everything, was very helpful and knowledgeable, plus had some good chatter and humor to liven our visit. The food was amazing and simply top notch. We had a variety of dishes; it was all so delicious! As with the visit my wife and I made in early January, it was a perfect meal, but this time we shared the experience with our son and his wife. They really enjoyed their first visit to any Villa Castrioti restaurant, and want to come back. And we all will. THANK YOU!

   We had been looking forward to celebrating our anniversary at VC, and it did not disappoint! The food, service, atmosphere and price were all outstanding!

   The food was just okay-not much seasoning. Service was great.

   We were outside on the porch and there were some screaming children. They were young boys that the mom's let run all over the porch and we could not even hear ourselves talk or have a conversation. We have been there several times before and had pleasant experiences, this was the first time that we were not really happy.

   Service was extremely slow. One waitress had an 8 top, 2 4tops, and 2 2tops. We waited so long to order I was ready to leave. The brunch menu was a bit odd. The only bacon available is a candied bacon that is very sweet. I didn’t like it at all. Regular bacon is not on the menu anywhere. The eggs benefit option has so many odd items on it I can’t say it is eggs Benedict. The only thing recognizable on it was poached eggs and hollandaise sauce. I was afraid to order it because it looked like it came with a ragu sauce and I don’t like ketchup on my eggs. The Italian French toast was so sweet my heart was pounding and racing from the sugar. Although the taste was fabulous. The fratita- think omelette-my husband ordered was good. Everything was priced a bit high but with the lack of normal good bacon, lack of egg offerings throughout the menu we probably won’t go back for brunch. We waited way too long for our bill to be paid as well. They need more waitresses.
