Man oh man I could not be happier with every single experience we’ve had at Villa De Como. This was our 3rd year going, for Valentine’s Day. We had to make the day after work (Sunday) as my new job is quite demanding. Chef Ali went above & beyond, in our other two trips we had never seen the upstairs… today we had the entirety of it to ourselves! Chef Ali had a full downstairs as we left mind you, he understood it was an important night & made it even more special. I cannot wait to go back & try other items from the menu as we are usually creatures of habit & order the same thing every time. To know there is still so much left to taste, I am so excited.
The food was exceptional, much like the service! As much as l’d like to keep this my secret go-to restaurant, the world has to know, more people need to experience Villa De Como. I myself need to go more! I think it is by far our favorite & best dining establishment we have ever been to, hands down. You truly made our experience outstanding. I really look forward to coming in again really soon for the regular menu. We have so much to try still. Thank you Chef Ali, you really made it more than just a meal.

Everything about this place makes me feel in love, even when I come solo. From the 1st glass of wine all the way to the last glass or homemade orangecello. The staff are so friendly too! I come here at least once a month because my carbonara and arancino don’t compare. A must visit! ❤️

Excellent Italian restaurant in Albany, NY . Only has 7 tables and some bar seating so getting a reservation is a must. The food was excellent, from appetizers to dessert, and the service was prompt and courteous.
A lot of the sauce put on the pasta can be a little spicy but if you request no spice they are very accommodating and make the dish the way you would like. They bottle their own limoncello which is very good as well.

Last night was my second visit to Villa di Como within the past year, and once again I was blown away by the hospitality. Owner Ali and his head chef Tony treat you like family — the experience truly feels like a classic Italian Sunday lunch thanks to their warmth and attention to detail.
We enjoyed a variety of dishes, including the Margherita pizza, focaccia, carbonara, cacio e pepe, and rigatoni with shrimp, mushrooms, and sausage — which was my personal favorite. Every dish was excellent.
To finish the evening, Ali treated us to his homemade limoncello and arancello, the perfect ending to a wonderful night out with friends and colleagues.
Hands down the best Italian restaurant in Albany!

We finally found a place that feels like true, authentic, northern Italy food. If I’m wrong, that part doesn’t matter – it is amazing food. The pasta, the red sauce, and the homemade limoncello! Chef Como’s creations are delicious! Legit. We will be back again and again. Reservations needed. It’s a small place.

Intimate and authentic Italian setting.
Meatballs are the best! All food was excellent as was the service.
Looking forward to returning in the future.
Highly recommend giving this place a try, and reservations are required. So make a date.

I dined at Villa di Cuomo with my wife and daughter last night. We experienced a work of art! Just like when we dined in Italy! Deep flavors and textures and presentation. We have come once before a few years ago and this restaurant has maintained everything just as our first experience. Thank you again for such a lovely dining experience.

We had the most wonderful Valentine’s Day dinner at Villa Di Como. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt warm, romantic, and perfect for the occasion. The staff was welcoming and attentive, which made the evening feel special.
The food was absolutely delicious — beautifully presented and full of authentic Italian flavor. Every dish tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared. You can really tell they care about quality and detail. My Pinot Noir paired perfectly with our meal, and the Cannolis and Lemoncello was the perfect sweet ending to a lovely night.
Overall, it was a fantastic experience and a perfect spot to celebrate Valentine’s Day!

Each visit to Villa Di Como evokes a genuine sense of nostalgia from my time living in Italy. Having dined at numerous Italian restaurants throughout Saratoga, Albany, and Schenectady, I can confidently say that none compare to Villa di Como. It is, without question, the most authentic Italian restaurant in the Capital District. The owner Ali delivers a true taste of Northern Italian cuisine, complemented by a well-curated selection of wines by the glass. During our recent visit, I enjoyed the eggplant parmigiana while my date had the chicken parmigiana—each dish perfectly prepared. The rigatoni was cooked al dente, capturing that satisfying balance of texture and tenderness, with generous yet refined portions. For dessert, the house-made tiramisu is exceptional. Every detail of this hidden gem reflects care and authenticity, and I look forward to returning again soon.

Found this place based on Google Reviews and being at a conference nearby. I was skeptical bc i heard it was small but the minute I walked in it could see it was going to be a quality dining experience. Nicely decorated with a great bar and good sized second floor.
I had the Pasta All’Arrabbiata with shrimp because it’s Lent but I was eyeing several other items. The garlic bread was to die for and they have homemade Limocello! I’m coming back with colleagues and customers Sunday. Give it a shot if you’re in the area.
