Nice restaurant. The ravioli that I got was just fine. Not memorable. But others food was quite tasty as per them. The prices are fair for the service and atmosphere. The desserts were tasty.

After 17 years in the US we have finally found a quiet restaurant with delicious food and the service was the best we had ever had !

We had a large group so I assume my experience could be different if they were less busy. My food was pretty blunt and my stomach was really unset the night after the dinner. I had a fish, which was okay. None of my friends finished their steaks. The wine was nice and the service was good. I don’t think I’ll come back.

I love Donato, authentic Italian food, and knowledgeable and kind staff. They make you feel at home. Tonight we had Some fabulous fried artichokes and the delicious Casonsei all Bergamasca. Inside, the restaurant is beautiful, but the patio is a plus for dog owners like me.

Donato has a nice atmosphere and pretty space. The food is always good – my favorite is the pork belly risotto. The pork belly is crispy and fatty with tender meat, balancing the more bitter risotto with parmesan and cabbage. Their salads are always fresh and they have a good wine selection. Their appetizers are tasty and feature plenty of summer vegetables. I recommend the heirloom tomato salad. They also have excellent coffee! If you like coffee with dessert absolutely give it a try. I wish they had a coffee to go counter because I like their coffee better than Coffeebar and as well as Philz.

We just had dessert but it was amazing. The chocolate lava hazelnut cake was decadent and bursting with flavor, and the cherry torte was creamy and just the right amount of tart. Expensive, but worth it

Food was tasty and presentation was good. I ordered the pork chop and it was a thick cut. Decent size for a hungry man.

Staff were very friendly and attentive, venue is alright. I thought the wine selection was average and I ordered the braised lamb which was not that tasty. It tasted more like oxtail than lamb and not good oxtail.
