We make it to Valenza every month or two and always have a great experience. The pasta is exceptional and I usually enjoy their specials. Last night we tried the tiramisu for the first time and I regret knowing about that. It was so good! I feel like I will have to order it every time we return now. I asked and they said they make it fresh everyday. We always start with the bread, I think the focaccia is the best. Either way you won’t be disappointed!

I visited for lunch to celebrate 1) St. Cecilia’s feast day in the Catholic Church and 2) the publication of my first book. I noted these in the comments of my reservation and they added “Congratulations” to my paper menu! It was a lovely touch. The server suggested champagne and made a few food recommendations, which were delicious! Great experience!

Lovely place as we continue our search for quiet restaurants. And the food is imaginative and delicious. We could actually have a conversation with our friends without shouting! We stayed for three hours and had a wonderful visit. I was especially impressed when I commented on how short the first pour of wine was that I ordered. The server promptly filled my glass to a more suitable level. It's a great place for a special night out.
