Waitstaff couldn’t have been nicer or more attentive. First class service. This was our first time at Meritage based on high recommendations from friends. Food was very good. Dessert was delicious. Only drawback in our opinion was that everything was a la carte. Side of pasta, salad, cooked veggie, etc with entree was an extra cost. Chicken paillard was good as it was served with Caesar salad on top. Also, check your bill carefully. We were accidentally charged for a bottle of wine ($60) instead of a glass of wine ($15). Of course, it was corrected immediately.

We were seated immediately and our service was quick, attentive and courteous. The food was amazing! It didn’t break the bank, either, despite the fact that the food was amazing! The wine list was adequate. There was even parking available. All in all, an excellent experience, we’ll definitely go back.

My husband and I had another amazing dinner at Angelina's. We started with the octopus appetizer, and my husband had a simple pasta dish and I had the pork chops. Both were excellent. We finished with two expressos and a tortoni. Great news....renovations are 99.9% complete. The main floor looks amazing!!! Can't wait to see what other surprises the owners Jimmy and Nino have in store for us!!!
