The service was excellent! The food was very good. The wine was also fabulous. The reputation of the place is a high-end restaurant in the area. Much of everything represents that.

The food was pretty solid for the most part, the drinks were quite awful. Our servers were pretty great too. For an expensive restaurant, i must say I was pretty disappointed with the aesthetic and general condition of the location (filthy baseboards, loads of chipped paint on the front door, rundown looking sheds on the property). Will probably never return. Fine dining should be fine EVERYWHERE.

I have eaten in this restaurant for a number of years and have probably ordered nearly everything on the menu by this point. Momento boasts delectable cuisine, exceptional service, and an elegant ambiance perfect for the finest of dining! Alberto, Leon, and their team have hosted private parties and catered events for my family for years — and their food and hospitality have put an extra touch of excellence on each of these occasions. I highly recommend Momento!!

Off the beaten path! We really enjoy coming here and have had a few special occasion dinners here and have always been pleased. The setting is lovely. The most recent visit there seemed to be a language barrier with our waitress but she was super nice just some misunderstanding with drink orders. The bathroom was freezing so they could benefit from a space heater in there- just be prepared if you need to make a stop in there if it’s winter!! Food is delicious

I’m sure glad they had Grouper and John Dory as part of their dinner specials. We love them both plus grill octopus. They were all delicious and perfectly cook. After the delicious dinner, the dessert was the knockout punch. I had the limoncello cake for the first time and it has to be in my top 5 list for the best cake ever. Not sweet. Flavor is awesome. That’s going to be my go to dessert when we go back to Momento’s for dinner or lunch whatever. If not slice to go, .

After hundreds of reviews you would think it becomes easier… lol NOT. It becomes more difficult because you tend to be repetitive and it gets harder to differentiate how to describe the good from the better.

Certainly a talented kitchen! Haven’t been here in more than 10 years. Friend pointed out to me that they have one of my favorite dishes, carpaccio, which is hard to find. I have had it prepared numerous ways by different chefs. All delicious, including here. Just missed my capers. NY strip was tender and perfectly cooked. My wife had grilled portobello mushrooms with goat cheese and the sesame encrusted tuna cooked perfectly to a medium rare. Portobello appetizer was a little overwhelmed with balsamic for my taste, but nicely done. Wife loved the chocolate mousse cake. Only issue of the night was our check had 3 drinks on it when we had only 2. Didn’t notice till after payment and we enjoyed the evening so didn’t bother bringing it up. Great place for a date night

I’m always a little leery when trying new places because my other half can be slightly hard to please after years in the restaurant industry. We went to Momento tonight at the recommendation of friends for my fiancé’s birthday…it didn’t disappoint! From the moment we walked in the door to the moment we left everything was perfect except the weather outside. Leon was such a gracious host – he’s got personality for days and he truly made us feel like family. The entire staff interacted with each other and all of the guests so seamlessly. And then there was the food!!! Everything was spot on and delicious! I couldn’t have asked for a better steak – bone-in dry aged ribeye cooked to medium rare perfection! My fiancé’s Seafood fra diavolo was incredible…no overcooked seafood in sight. We had such an amazing experience and cannot wait to go back!

This is a bit off the beaten path, and literally up a path in the forest. It is a beautiful setting in the woods. Once inside you could be at a villa in Tuscany. It is cozy and the staff was very helpful. The steaks and seafood are fantastic. It is about typical steakhouse pricing. They dont have the typical pasta you night expect. But worth a visit.
