    Always a great dinner and super service. Been going there since the day they opened the door. Prices are getting up there but the food is worth it.

    The pasta was delicious. The gluten free menu is extensive; and the restaurant accommodated some changes. Italianissimo is a hidden gem.

    As always, dinner at Italianissimo was another beautiful evening from arrival at 7 to departure at 9. Gracious and unrushed service. Delicious meals: spaghetti carbonara and salmon special. A crisp cabernet. Tasty desserts. Thank you!

    It’s so nice to find classic neighborhood gems like this cozy Italian. Tremendous veal, chicken and pasta dishes at our table. We finished with Zambiglione with berries as well as profiteroles. A new fav spot for us!

    Every time I have the pleasure of visiting Italianissmo, I enjoy it more than the time before. The food is outstanding; the staff so very friendly; the other guests, many local, so welcoming and happy to see an out-of-town repeat visitor discover and appreciate their neighborhood jewel.
