Wonderful experience with my daughter’s engagement party! Everything was top notch and exceeded my expectations! Highly recommend!

We always enjoy Cafe Notte. The food is delicious and the atmosphere is great. We love sitting outside in the summer and by the fireplaces on the winter.

a lot of small things came together not so well to kind of leave our group frustrated- we were repeatedly given a heads up that an enormous group of 70 was slated to sit an hour after us. Most of us have been in food service and all too well know the storm that was coming, so we wanted to make it as smooth as we could for the staff. The several times this was reiterated we obliged and saw no issue being a little swift; what complicated this was the quality of the food was absolutely not a representation of the reviews given previously. Instead of the beautiful round stone fired pizzas we saw around us, our group was given lunch lady style oblong pizza that was also completely room temperature. When it was communicated the pizza had obviously sat for quite some time, the only offer was to reheat it. The pasta dishes were absent any real flavor, leaving us to dump Parmesan and lemon on them to revive them. The advertised sauce meant to accompany the chicken Romano of white wine, butter, and lemon was absent and in its stead a salty brown oil with no flavor or mention of the white wine or lemon. The garnish of zucchini was actually good, a bright spot in all of it albeit a very minor player given the scarcity. It was my wife’s birthday celebration, and not wanting to put dark marks on her day we basically kept going. Then, while she was opening gifts- literally arm in a bag and thanking her grandparents- the cake is presented candles lit and shoved in front of her. I get this was likely an effort to be helpful; by itself would have been understandable. Had they bothered to look up and recognize the terrible timing rather than proceed with pushing us along they may have noticed a good number of our party missing from the table and now missing the awkward happy birthday. Add it in with all around being rushed along at each stage I can’t help but feel like the objective was to push us out to accommodate the clearly oversized and daunting party of 70 in the actual banquet/party rooms. So oversized it apparently was necessary for a party of 14 to be seated three feet from the mens restroom and clearly in the way of kitchen staff moving full sheet pans of product from one area to another over the heads of guests due to restricted access and us being so close to active entryways. Everyone has bad days. This seems to have been a bad day for quite a few kitchen and wait staff that came together in perfectly coordinated fashion. A perfectly coordinated fashion that was endured so as to not make a scene during someone else’s celebration that had no place costing $150 for two adults and two young toddlers. Everyone has bad days. Unfortunately this bad day cost our group several hundred dollars and a wasted opportunity that would have been better spent at the places we’ve come to trust rather than branch out and explore like we did here. I’d rather have been told our group couldn’t be accommodated than waste an evening watching my crestfallen family convince themselves time and again that ‘this is fine’.

My husband and I passed by so many times and finally stopped in for dinner. Great service and a delightful meal. We’ll be stopping more often. The pork chops were cooked and seasoned to perfection!
