    An amazing experience overall. Bar seats with attentive and informative service with Quinn. Superbly crafted cocktails made with slight adjustments to meet our tastes. The menu is limited but offers amazing tastes for every palate. Plates are shareable, food is expertly prepared and delicious. Butternut squash mezzaluna steals the show!

    Food was great but very pricey for pizza! Wine by the glass - price was not posted but was $18 for a 5 oz glass. Tiramisu price also not posted was $16. A little heavy on the coffee flavors but good!

    We have had countless meals at Tosca and this was our second year hosting our office Christmas party there. The food and service was amazing as always. Alessandra was our waitress this year and she was exceptional. I definitely recommend this restaurant, one of the best ones in town.
