It was good. If you’re looking for some Italian food this is a pretty good bet. Unfortunately the prices are higher than they should be and servings much too large. Taking home a white sauce pasta is almost worthless as the sauce is going to break when you chill it. A good sign that they make them in house, but when your serving size is so large you have to take it home it’s almost a waste.
Servers are nicer and attentive which is appreciated. However the check automatically charges 3% “fair wage” so I guess you’re not needing to tip as the wait staff gets paid appropriately which is good for them.
Then there is another 3% fee for the convenience of paying with a card. I understand small places doing it to save a few dollars but when you’re easily over $20 per plate….your covering it.
Regardless, food was good. Arribiatta sauce was actually spicy which was nice but for the price, some peppers or Italian sausage would be nice.
Tiramisu was adequate but nothing to really brag about as it tasted pretty basic and not an overly large serving like the dinner.
Table bread was good and hard as well.

Excellent experience! We had the blackened salmon and Cabernet wine. I also had a salad, which was very fresh. The food was so delicious and the presentation was superb! Our waiter, Julio was very knowledgeable, professional, and personable. He even brought out a dessert recommendation – A tiramisu and raspberry cheesecake.

Julio our server was phenomenal! Highly recommend. The food, service, atmosphere, were amazing. The portion sizes are just right and you have left overs the next day. Everyone was on top of it and the owner was very attentive. Will be coming back. Ohh and the best Calamri Ala Capri I have ever had.

Julio was PHENOMENAL. The service was some of the best I’ve gotten in a long time. The food was amazing – everything down to the lemon sauce was intentional. I had the capritini, mule, and suzy drink. Nothing our group had was bad. We will be back!!!

The food is TOP TIER and their customer service is second to none! Our server Julio treated us like family the moment we sat down. The Chilean Seabass Limone with Risotto was cooked to perfection and the flavors were definitely a one of a kind dish you won’t find anywhere else! They made my husband’s 40th birthday one to remember.

Let’s start with the ambiance and aesthetics; for a hotel this was excellent in every way! Dale was our server and gave us so many wonderful recommendations. We got the stuffed gnocchi, lasagna and the tomahawk with blackened shrimp. All of this served with salad and bread. Service and food excelled my thought of this place. We will be back this week! So delicious! Only got picture of gnochi as it was too late for the other stuff lol but you really cant go wrong.

Dale was an absolute sweetheart!! I had no intention of originally coming to the hotel restaurant, but I’m in town for work and needed dinner. His extensive knowledge of the menu was extremely impressive. I watched him work, the entire room, providing specials for the evening and making recommendations based on what people asked, and by the way, the pork chop was amazing.
I will most definitely be back looking for Dale!

I don’t usually expect much from hotel restaurants—especially at DoubleTree—but this Italian spot was a real surprise. The food was fresh, tasty, and comforting in a cozy setting. The salads were crisp and flavorful, and the filet was cooked exactly as I requested—rare and perfectly done. Everything felt high-quality without being overdone. On top of that, the staff were genuinely warm and attentive, which made the whole experience even better. A hidden gem inside the hotel!
