- JJustinDenver / Colorado •1 review4.0Dined 5 days agoUnfortunately, they did not see our reservation when we arrived and the hostess seemed very annoyed. She didn’t take us to the table. She just pointed. It was also the waiter’s first official day and he had not learned any of the specials or the desserts. So he just to out the book and read to us. Food was tasty though and the atmosphere is very nice.More infoAcqua di DeaPrice: Very Expensive• Contemporary Italian• Downtown Cleveland•4.3

- NNancyCleveland / Akron / Canton •54 reviews5.0Dined on Dec 25, 2024Amazing food and service. Wonderful a very nice Caesar salad followed by Braised Lamb Shank with a rich sauce and Tagliatelle Pasta. I had a chocolate mousse for dessert, so rich and delicious I will be remembering it for days to come. I also tasted the Potato Gnocchi with a Pesto Cream Sauce which was divine, I will be having that on our next visit. Staff is always attentive and personable. An enjoyable experience.More infoThe PalazzoPrice: Moderate• Contemporary Italian• Cleveland West•4.8
