Our group of 4 enjoyed every aspect of our dining experience at Farm Italy. We requested a quiet table and sat upstairs in the luxe modern-rustic fireplace room. The vibe is relaxed, warm and elegant…a great setting for conversation and superlative dining. Everything from cocktails to dessert was impeccably fresh, creative, beautiful and delicious! This is wonderful, elevated cuisine to be shared and enjoyed … each sip and bite a delight.

Beautiful restaurant. Food was excellent we had 4 small plates all very good. Service was great. Drinks were expensive though and valet is so far away from door we were freezing by the time we got our car! Also walkway slippery due to the snow we had. But overall very nice experience would recommend.

Great time. Agree with the other reviews, which was why I chose this place. It's more of a bar so it was pretty much only us for dinner on a Wednesday night, but the food and service were great. Highly recommend. Nice decor as well.
