    Great experience at Tartufo. Our food was delicious. Limoncello cake, with its vibrant lemon essence and elegant complexity, has emerged as a standout dessert to complete our dining experience. Will be back.

    The restaurant was quite full when we arrived but we were seated promptly and had good service throughout our meal. The food was very good. We had the philly steak egg rolls and beet salad for appetizers and the cashew encrusted icelandic haddock and the bee bolognese. We also enjoyed the cocktails, especially the"cocktail for a cause" which seems to be a riff on a bee's knees. Only small quibble was that when ordering off the menu, the order online information kept popping up time and time again - it was distracting. This is my third time at Tempo and I've enjoyed it every time!

    Excellent homemade pasta. Bolognase to die for. Meatballs that could be it's own meal. Olive oil cake and flourless chocolate cake made to make you leave room for desert. Servings are more than enough. Service is timely, affable, and non-intrusive. Valentines was full, but you never felt closed in. We have been several times and and have never been disappointed.

    Darcy was our waitress, friendly, attentive, professional, and overall a real pleasure. The owner swung by and chatted. Even had a chef step out to take a group picture so we could all be in it. Overall, the whole vibe of the place is very comforting and inviting. Food was very good, though a couple dishes were a little on the bland side. Still good, but could’ve used a little sauce or seasoning. But overall, everybody was really pleased with their dinner, and we just loved how welcoming it felt to eat there. Highly recommend.
