Great attentive service. Seems to really enjoy working there and who they work for. They easily navigated the menu and helped me order with a dairy allergy. I tried 3 meals. All great. But the standout dish was the salmon. It was made to perfection. The second best was the Italian sausage pasta. The leftovers were even incredible. And the piccata was decent. Really a great choice either way.

We had the most delightful date night at Tavolo Ristorante! The charming atmosphere and mouthwatering food were simply amazing. Our fantastic server, Chris, really enhanced our experience with great recommendations. We can’t wait to return and enjoy another lovely evening together!

Came here on a recommendation from some locals. The service was spectacular, our waiter was very outgoing and helpful the whole time. The food was mostly delicious but wasn’t too much a fan of the charred bread. Understandably, it is the particular style, but wasn’t my cup of tea. Everything else was delicious – especially the pizza!!

An Unforgettable Experience at Tavolo!
We recently hosted a baby sprinkle at Tavolo with a group of 35+ guests, and the experience was nothing short of incredible. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth, professionalism, and a beautifully set space that made us feel right at home.
The food was absolutely divine — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully plated. Every dish had our guests raving! The drinks were on point, refreshing and well-balanced, perfectly complementing the atmosphere and celebration.
But what truly set the experience apart was the unmatched hospitality. Tara was amazing to work with from start to finish — attentive, communicative, and genuinely invested in making our day special. Sean and Branden went above and beyond during the event, catching even the tiniest details and handling them seamlessly. Their calm energy and attention made everything flow effortlessly.
The ambiance at Tavolo is the perfect mix of cozy and chic, making it ideal for intimate gatherings and celebrations. We left feeling celebrated, cared for, and already planning our next visit — whether it’s another event or just dinner with friends.
If you’re looking for a venue that offers top-tier service, outstanding food, and a welcoming vibe, Tavolo is the place. Thank you to the entire team for helping us create lasting memories with our village!

Brandon was our server tonight and was very polite, attentive, could answer any question we had, and made us feel at home with conversation and jokes. We ordered the burata, brown butter veggies and gnudi with goat cheese as appetizers, all of them were fantastic! All were made with fresh ingredients and the flavors were paired so well! I had the braised pork special and my sister had the tagliatelli bolognese, both tasted phenomenal! Rich robust and hardy dishes yhat were classic comfort flavors! We also had the apple ricotta pastry and the vanilla afogatto, both were killer!! The pastry came with citrusy and tart cranberry reduction that helped cut through the richness of the ricotta and the rest of the meal! Everything I ate tonight was made with skill and love and I would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great Italian food!

The service was GREAT, but I can’t say the same for the food. The tagliolini consistency was like ramen that was boiled for 20 mins too long. The shrimp scampi was tasteless. The mushroom risotto that came with the grilled flat iron steak was also not cooked correctly. We were very disappointed with the food, but love the restaurant and the service.

Very mediocre tonight. Pasta was over cooked. Service was not just slow, it was super inattentive. I was embarrassed to have brought my party to this experience when Dot and Boston have so many great spots. What happened Tavolo???

Service was amazing, the atmosphere was just right for a nice Friday night out with the family. No children’s menu, but we just ordered a pasta to be split in half. The Tagliatelle Bolognese was delicious and so we’re the desserts! The only complaint is that the steak was too peppery.

The food wasn’t all that! I mean, if they would have cooked my salmon. They didn’t ask if I wanted it raw! I didn’t! So I didn’t eat! But the music and services was on point! My daughter enjoyed her food but wanted a little bit more. Price wasn’t too bad.
