    I let the staff know it was my birthday on the app and verbally and my server did not say happy birthday once. It was loud and the food was just okay.

    The drinks and food were amazing! The arancini with the melted parmesan from the garlic bread is a great combo and the fusilli pesto and radiatori vodka was great! We also got the dark chocolate budino and it was fantastic. Stef, our server, was great and so friendly. Will definitely come back another time!!

    Food, service, ambience all great. Be forewarned however, outside seating is literally outside seating with a few scattered heaters and no enclosure to retain heat to any meaningful degree. Hat, gloves, coat, and warm socks highly recommended if cold outside.

    I completely understand that the winter weather can make eating outside a little bit less enjoyable, but I am happy to hear that our food and service made up for that. We are working on getting our patio dining area fitted with an enclosure to preserve the warmth and make dining outside more comfortable. We look forward to seeing you again soon! -Kayla Ricaud Pelato Restaurant Manager

    As a former New Yorker, I am familiar with the family ambiance and the love of cooking (and eating!) together that the Scotto family is known for. The food is great and the service is excellent. Highly recommend!

    Bad service for sub par Italian food. It seemed as though they didn’t care how much our party of five spent; rather just wanted to get us out as fast as possible. The server asked to take our menus after we had only ordered a ball of mozzarella and a potato appetizer. Bussers were grabbing plates off the table that still had food on them without asking if we were finished, and it was difficult to have a conversation because it felt like every 60 seconds someone was asking if they could take a plate off our table. If you’d like to take your time and enjoy your meal, I would only recommend this place for a party of two - much better experience.
    PelatoResponded 2 days ago
    Hi Madison, I apologize that this was your experience with us. We work to ensure a smooth transition between each course which involves removing plates from the table to make room for the next, although dishes with food still on them should not be taken. I invite you back in to have the proper Pelato experience. -Kayla Ricaud Pelato Restaurant Manager
