Having gone to other Tuscan Kitchens we were in the area and went there for lunch. Unlike other Tuscan kitchens they did not have a lunch menu. I ordered a Caesar salad with chicken (added $9) another member of our party also ordered a Caesars salad with Salmon (added $14) which doubled the cost of the salad . The salads came with large chunks of lettuce which were difficult to cut and eat and were heavy on the dressing. The other members had a chicken dinner and a calamari appetizer. The waitress was lovely and the service was fine. But for 4 people for lunch (2 salads, 1 appetizer, 1 dinner) with 3 drinks the bill was $174. greatly overpriced.

We came this time to celebrate a promotion in the family. All of our food was absolutely delightful! Our server was very kind and personable, and despite being placed in an area that appears to be outdoor dining in warmer weather the glass sunroom was very comfortably warm and toasty even directly beside the window even when the actual outside temperature was hovering around freezing (and super windy to boot) We quite enjoy Tuscan Kitchen and will be back whenever our next special occasion strikes!

Had a reservation and was seated right away. The hostess and server were both extremity friendly and service was outstanding. I had the Chilean Sea Bass, cooked perfectly and delicious. My husband had the filet which he enjoyed. Beautiful atmosphere, lighting is perfect, seating was comfortable.
