This was my first time visiting 202 and I was blown away. One of the best meals I have ever had. Everything from the atmosphere, the service, the drinks and the food was outstanding. Highly recommend!

Excellent dinner! First time here and will be back. Nice bar area with a dining room in the back. Appetizers and entrees were delicious around the table. I recommend for date night, family dinner, friends gathering.

GREAT service, delicious food. Unhurried meal, super-attentive waiter. The entire staff is great and very welcoming. I recently had dinner here with a few co-workers and it was perfect. Everyone enjoyed their meals and said this was the best restaurant by far. We will definitely be back!

A gift from friends who had recommended this restaurant for years. The night we were there it was a very crowded, lively and busy, both at the tables and the bar. Having said that, it took a little while for us to be acknowledged and then seated. It took a little while get menus and place our order. It took a little while to get our food. But, we also notice there were other people before us and a little after us in the same situation. Having said all that, we don’t mind the waits at restaurants provided the food and the experience lives up to expectations. What’s the rush. When you go out, part of the dining experience is to relax and take your time. This restaurant delivered on all fronts. The food, the drinks, the deserts and the service were all that we expected based on our friends experiences. As far as the service was concerned, the wait staff was extremely friendly and very attentive.They all work together as a team (taking turns to make sure that all was well and we had what we needed), which was a good reflection on this family restaurant. We will definitely patronize this place on a regular basis. We mentioned one of our friends name and they knew immediately who we were referring to. Nice.

Great restaurant, service is excellent, and the atmosphere invites to have a nice time while you eat. All the staff was polite and helpful. Food was good, with impeccable presentation. The best are appetizers and desserts. I wonder if they bake their own bread, because it was delicious.

This restaurant is truly amazing. Fresh ingredients, delicious food, beautiful presentation, and great attentive staff. I had my sons baptism here and even with a 50 person party their quality of food and beverage was impeccable. Date night, special occasion, girls night out, you name it, this is where you want to go!

We visited 202 Italian Bistro tonight and were not too impressed. I had explained to the waiter that I have food intolerances and am strictly oil free. He assured me that the dish I ordered is definitely prepared without any oils just grilled.

Nice place. Food was pretty good. Ordered a glass of wine that never came and I had to remind them of when my food came. A little on the pricey side for what you get in my honest opinion. It’s only because of that, that I will probably not be back. There are just too many other quality options at more reasonable prices. Sorry, nothing personal.

Nice surprise, never been to this restaurant before but the food and bar service was excellent. Definitely want to come back to try a couple different dishes. The Chicken Verona was excellent as was the Shrimp Pomodoro.

We went in 02/14/2019 for the first time and were pleasantly surprised. They had recently remodeled putting in a bar and other new decor. Food was outstanding in taste and in presentation. Service was great also. I cannot wait to go back and try it again.
