Shout out to this local gem! We patronized this establishment on Friday! The food and drinks are delicious, consistent and the atmosphere, owners and staff are amazing! We frequent her often enough to know that it can fill up quickly, so we make sure we call them early enough, to guarantee our reservation. The libations are unique, delicious and well crafted. The bartender is warm and engaging and owners while not tending to business matters, make it a point to get around to greet and say hello to their customers. There is always a smile to go with your delicious meal! I can’t say enough good things about Colao’s, but to say, if you’re going to be in the area to make sure you stop in. Please don’t forget to call!!! It is a busy establishment for good reason and they only take reservations by phone.

First time here and it won’t be our last ! Everything was excellent. We did have a reservation which I highly recommend . To walk in here and smell all that delicious food and be turned away would be soooo disappointing! MAKE A RESERVATION! You won’t be disappointed. ❤️

I’m a big girl, I wasn’t aware the booths would be about a foot deep from the back of the seat to the edge of the table. I recommend requesting a table if you’re a bigger person, I did not and I had to sit at the bar on my anniversary night because they couldn’t give me a table until over an hour past my reservation time (They book up quick). The atmosphere is fantastic, small and intimate. The food is TO DIE FOR. I recommend the lemonchello, it’s homemade and fantastic. The bartender bought my husband and I a glass for our anniversary, thanks again, girlie!

We’ve gone 6 times in the last 12 months and while I’ve found the food to be really good, my most recent experience while making a reservation was pretty terrible and I want others to be warned. When calling to make a reservation for 7 I was told it would be fine for the evening but when I mentioned we had children the person scheduling said they’d pass. We’ve been loyal customers but won’t be returning or recommending.

We found this gem of a restaurant by accident while visiting Erie. What a treasure. We loved the ambiance and atmosphere with warm colors and pleasant decor. Brittany was our server and was terrific. She immediately brought fresh bread with a wonderful seasoned oil. Our salad that came with the meal was fresh and delicious with balsamic vinaigrette. Entrees consisted of lobster ravioli and chicken parmigiana. Both meals were delicious. Everything was really top shelf. Dessert was homemade tiramisu which was also outstanding. I’m not one to do reviews but had to give this beautiful place one.

This place always satisfies. My pictures dont do it justice. Excellent service from the owner Ellen seating you, to our server Brittney suggesting the ever popular pear martini. Extensive wine list. HIGHLY reccomend

Update! Still our favorite! Celebrated our anniversary in style. Eggplant parm., ribeye, amd scallops Americana. Casey,
our server was excellent. The owners and their son Nick are great hosts. Highly recommend!!!

Our absolute favorite! Nick and his family never disappoint! Calabrese broccoli is my favorite dish. And you can never go wrong with their steak. A truly amazing dining experience, you don’t want to miss!! Oh! And don’t forget to try their lemonchello

This place has an amazing menu. So much variety, dishes that sound spectacular! What do I get every time I go? The lobster ravioli. It’s the most savory delicious Italian dish I’ve ever had in my life. From the amazing cocktails to the decadent desserts, you can’t go wrong.
