My favorite restaurant for an after-show dinner! The food, service and atmosphere are all incredibly amazing!! Took my 88 year old mom and sister here after a Johnny Mathis Christmas concert and the staff was so kind, helping my mom get from her wheelchair to a seat at the table. The food is authentic Italian like I remember from childhood. Pricing is very reasonable and the portions are large. And the Christmas music and decorations made it feel like the perfect Christmas celebration for our girls’ night out! Thank you to all at Buona Sera!
