My girlfriend and I had a very nice time! All of the servers and staff made us feel very comfortable for a romantic dinner as a queer couple! Food was delicious and portions were perfect. You left the restaurant feeling full in the best way! Very fun experience and worth the money! Visit if you’re wanting to have a fancy evening!

We had a fabulous dinner for 4 at Sienna on a Friday evening. Noise level was moderate when we sat at 7:30, but improved greatly when the noisy party near us left! Our waiter, Alex, was very helpful and very attentive. We started with the whipped ricotta crostini, which was very nice although the focus seemed to be more on the mushrooms that the ricotta. Fine with me (!) but others in the party were looking for the ricotta to be the hero. For entrees we shared two orders of the squid ink linguini "scampi" and two orders of the braised monkfish "osso busso". Both were excellent ... lovely presentation, well cooked, and we all loved the flavor profiles. We will definitely return.

Went there for the first time for a date night and the waiter pulled out all the stops for us first timers. We got some fresh focaccia bread fresh out of the oven for an appetizer. Then we ordered steak and the pasta special. Everything was freshly made and came out at a nice pace. We finished off with their homemade vanilla gelato and it was so rich and creamy and then concluded with some fresh complimentary biscotti and lemon cello. We got a window seat and saw the stream down below and the ambience was relaxing. Will definitely be coming back as regulars.

This is a really wonderful restaurant that we discovered last night. The food was fabulous. The wait staff very attentive. And the ambience was very nice, except maybe a bit too loud for good conversation. We’ll be back
