Cute Italian feel! Staff was amazing and food was even better! The Bolognese and Caesar salad is my favorite. Marco and Maddie were friendly and knowledgeable! Give them a try, you won’t be disappointed.

Hey, let me tell you guys something. Come in close, okay you listening? This place is authentic, cozy, well priced and run incredibly well. The service here is fast, professional and organized. The owner cares about his now 30 year old business and it shows. The restaurant is impeccably clean and well taken care of. Come here if you want a nice Italian meal in a friendly/cozy setting. You won’t be disappointed! Date night and family night! Lunch here would be a good option too as the food here is of a super high quality.

I have so much to say, I don’t know where to begin. When Maria and her husband ran the restaurant, it was a delightful place to go. We have been coming here for many, many years, and it was our favorite restaurant. The nephew has taken over and that is why the vibe in the restaurant is so very different. We have stopped going all together now, because we have been treated rudely by him so many times. We went with my son and his wife for dinner, and were put on the porch, where we were the only people. The nephew walked in and turned off the air conditioning, I guess, because we were the only people. We then asked the wait staff to turn it back on. We went for last Christmas Eve because my daughter loves the place and were put in front of a duct that was flowing cold air into the restaurant and she went up and asked if we could be moved, and they completely ignored us. My daughter also wanted to have her shower there and the shenanigans from the nephew about trying to shame us because three people had to drop out at the end due to a death was just unbelievable. He also complained that he was not charging us enough for the event. He is the one that took the reservation and set the price. There were numerous other issues which were very rude and annoying, but not worth even addressing here. My husband and I have stopped going, because we are tired of the attitude, and frankly do not feel like they appreciate or even want our business. Gianni really has given us the impression that what the patrons want is of no concern to him. We will have to find a different place to celebrate life‘s important moments.

My family has been patrons of Via Sforza for over a decade. It’s a family restaurant, not looking for fine dining but a decent meal we all can enjoy. The overall quality has decreased as the years go by. There are solid standards that always please, clams casino and pizza are always great. But the service last night was so unbelievably depressing I just had to write it up in a review. There was a large wait staff at the ready, and they all looked miserable. Not a smile, no conversation about our dinner, experience, not even a thank you. We had to ask for things multiple times. BUT I did notice there was an included gratuity on the bill. It makes me wonder what’s going on with management these days to have such an unpleasant, unhappy staff and mediocre food. The vibe is just not the same.

Today we held a spectacular baby shower at this beautiful restaurant. We had the party for 25 in the main dining room at noon and had the restaurant to ourselves.

We always want to like this restaurant – the staff is so nice. We go once a year have mediocre food and then remind ourselves not to go again. Ex:Carbonara which states it has onions (not traditional) but comes with loads of onion, and under cooked pancetta and a puddle of oil or butter at the bottom of the bowl. It was terrible. We have tried so many dishes and they always underwhelm – often too greasy. Perhaps the take out pizza is good – we haven’t ordered for a while. We feel bad as we so want to like this place, but won’t be back until we forget this meal again.

I’m sorry to report this restaurant won’t have my business ever again . The wine and appetizers were good – calamari fritti and a salad and they came out relatively quickly. Would have prefer that the bread be warm
