Our family loves valdari!! It is me and my boyfriends go to date night spot at least once a week. And we bring our entire family for dinner pretty frequently too. The staff is so friendly and accommodating. The food is fresh and delicious and the drinks are top notch! The ambiance is classy but laid back and family friendly as well. We are Italian and this is authentic delicious Italian food. We recommend this restaurant to everyone and anyone!

Tonight was girls night and we picked the perfect spot. We were treated with live music and great service. It goes without saying that the food is top notch and the service is just as awesome.

The place look nice and good ambience. The service was great but the food was a little lack luster to be honest. Everything was extremely over salted so it was hard to eat it.

Please go somewhere else. Horrible experience. Charcuterie board didn’t come with crackers. For condiments for the board it was literally Smuckers Concord grape jelly and GoGo Squeeze applesauce. Service horrendously slow. We were a table of 3 and then a table of 15 came in 1 hour after us and were served way before us. We wanted a spicy margarita sever said it couldn’t be done. We asked for cucumber in margarita it couldn’t be done. Will not be returning.

Service was horrible. The waiter vanished for 15 minutes. He didn't know a charcuterie board was nor what meats & cheeses were on there. We were given applesauce with the charcuterie. My $13 after dinner drink was basically a thimble size. And they charged $2 per martini because it's wasn't well. Plus no one could explain the additional charge. Finally the owner did. It's on my "do not return to" list.

Great restaurant, nice atmosphere, good service & delicious food. Also, the prices are pretty good compared with other places in Bayside. I’m looking forward to going back to Valdari soon.

The food here is excellent! My wife and I are huge fans of their pasta and appetizers as well. Whether dine in or take out, the food itself is always their selling point. The location is nice, very spacious. Good for a date night for sure. The only thing that was a bit lacking was the service. It wasn't bad, but I think the waitresses were new and didn't quite seem trained up yet. It happens- wouldn't keep us from coming back, but just sharing the honest feedback.

This is the second time we have eaten at Valdari. We were not terribly impressed the first time which was 5 months ago but decided to give it another try. Not a good idea. The hostess was unenthusiastic, the server was lacking in both experience and knowledge of the menu, and the food was mediocre at best. We will not be returning.
