    Claudia was excellent. The food was very good, but the portions were not very substantial.

    Beautiful restaurant and grounds and the food was fantastic. Even on a busy Mother’s Day, we weren’t rushed and had an amazing experience.

    Second time at The Grove at Copia, this time with out-of-town guests and I'm sorry to say it did not live up to our previous experience. It could have been our selections. Two of us ordered the warm Italian sandwich which had a odd shade of focaccia and on the whole ,was rather lackluster on the plate. Our fried potatoes had zero flavoring added and were supposed to be crunchy but were mealy throughout. I had to ask for salt! It didn't help that the bartender wasn't there and we couldn't order drinks, which would have softened the blow. Oh, and the food took forever to arrive. I feel bad writing this because I know it's a school and the students are trying really hard. I just hope it is received as helpful criticism because it is such an impressive building and setting worthy of showing off to out-of-town guests.

    Bread delivered was burnt, ordered steak medium rare it was well done. Carbonara had too much pepper in it.

    My husband and I enjoyed out meal. The food was excellent, the service was attentive, friendly, and relaxed. Not many guest (Monday night off season), so the noise level was quiet. The portions were shareable and encouraged. I would go back.

    So looking forward to this experience on our special occasion, however, there was a large party/private event and it appeared that event took precedence over all others. We waited 45 minutes to get first dish. The service could've been much better. Good food though.

    We’ve eaten here twice before; both times were exceptional. Tonight was not. Our server started out great, advising us knowledgeably about wines and food, we had a fantastic broccolini with bean purée. It went downhill after that, since we waited over an hour for the main courses with little to no acknowledgement of the time it was taking. 45 minutes in, the server brought free proseccos,, and offered a free dessert when our food was delivered over an hour later. Unfortunately, she could not tell us if the free dessert had tree nuts, and my daughter has an allergy, so we declined. The server told us the kitchen was behind because of two big parties. My thought is that if we had known that ahead of time, we would have rebooked to find a restaurant who could adequately serve a party of 3. I had really talked up the restaurant to my two companions (both from out of town) and I’m very disappointed.
