Every time we come here, we are treated like royalty. The staff is amazing and the ambience is great. We have never had anything even mediocre here—-everything is always beyond phenomenal. Don’t decide on the menu too fast! We always have some thing we think we want until we hear the specials-Like tonight these pictures are of swordfish with a balsamic reduction crusted in sesame and steak tips and shrimp on ziti in a pesto cream sauce….. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

Ovations is a lovely, contemporary restaurant that exudes elegance and cleanliness. The food, service, and drinks all exceeded our expectations with their quality and flavor. We have the elderberry martini, lobster and crab ravioli and the shrimp flatbread. Wonderful immense flavor in everything!!

I came here with friends it was my second time. This place has a nice classy feel to it. When you walk in your greeted by either the owner Peggy or Tony Macaroni who is bigger then life and very welcoming.He works behind the bar and is also a server. They also have Jesus behind the bar making great cocktails.

My Fiancé and I came here to celebrate a WIN for our business. The service was excellent. Very attentive. We had some libations at Ovations and they were perfect. He had the East 8 an Amaretto and Rum concoction that brought the summer breeze with it. I had the Spicy Jalapeño Margarita on the rocks with salt (all around that rim, rim, rim, rim <-- that's for my Nicki Minaj fans) it was smooth with a hint of capsacin from the seeds. I would recommend! For appetizers we started with the Rice Balls and Boneless Wings. Those Rice Balls WON! They were FANTASTIC! We got seconds. We ended up being full after those apps, we couldn't even get dessert *sad face.

Service isn’t top notch. Waiter didn’t attend to us until I had to get up and express our disappointment to whom seemed like the manager. After that the service seemed better, but we already had a horrible first impression and those are everything. Was so bad we had to skip dessert.

One of our favorite Italian Restaurants. Whether you sit at the bar and schmooz with the crowd or sit at a table the food and service is very good. I wish they still had the Veal Parmigiana cutlet, but everything there is great. A wider selection of Pinot Grigio would be nice and things can get a little tight at the bar/ The Mozzarella and Balsamic tower is delicious. Outside dining is available. The owners and servers are very welcoming and accommodating if you want to alter a dish.

The baked salmon was delicious , the drinks were mostly vodka based and I wished it were tequila instead but that’s just my personal preference. The decor is upscale and dimly lit, the crowd was mostly an old and white demographic and for some reason there were thousands of flies flying around. They should probably spray.

My husband and I went for Valentine’s dinner & we absolutely loved it! Everything was perfect from the moment we walked in & were greeted by the lovely hostess.
