ONLINE ORDERING AVAILABLE - ilpalioct.comIl Palio was named after the race held each summer in Siena, Italy. Created with a passion, the restaurant has been exquisitely designed and beautifully finished with materials from all over the world. No stone was left unturned and time was not a factor in finding exactly what was required to make the "vision" a reality. The atmosphere created is one of quiet comfort in surroundings reminiscent of an Italian villa. The friendly and courteous staff, the outstanding food, and the efficient service all contribute to the ambiance felt by those who visit the restaurant. Il Palio's fine Tuscan cuisine is a pleasing combination of the highest-quality ingredients and the caring preparation by chefs who take pride in the dishes they present. Like the race in Siena, Il Palio is creating lasting impressions.

    I had another of Osteria Romana's risotto specials, and it was very good. The shrimp with crqb stuffing served atop the risotto is a nice touch. The polenta with tomato sauce, an appetizer, was good, but definitely not worth the price. Another guest had the fettuccine bolognese and enjoyed it. This restaurant could up its bread quality - the bread was cold and rather gummy;. The noise level on a Saturday night was not pleasant, but this has nothing to do with the food
