From start to finish, quality service and exceptional food. Started with calamari, light and full of flavor. Sauce was incredible. Dinner was just as impeccable, clams over linguine, branzino and scallops and shrimp over pesto risotto. As for the key lime, i think the plate explains it. Thank you Dom.

Ideal place for an event! Restaurant took deliveries of cake, favors and flowers, and set up table and cake table exactly as planned. Every dish was excellent. We will definitely be back again soon!

3-star at best! Scallops were bouncy, an indication that they were probably frozen. The eggplant rolatine and sangria were the only things that were exceptional. Their veal francese was ok… nothing that would blow you away. The tartufo was very disappointing… not at all palatable … fake green coloring with fake whipped cream… although supposed to be served with crème fraiche. We’ve eaten here before and the blank ink pasta was delicious as were the scallops which were huge and very fresh.. The ambiance is very nice, however, at the prices… ambiance alone would not bring us back!

It was nice to have a variety of delicious food. I liked the old-fashioned interior of the restaurant as well. But the waiter’s service was awkward. I ordered the wine and he didn’t bring it even though all the food was served, and the one brought later made the mistake of bringing something different from what I ordered. However, there could be mistakes like this, so I didn’t mind it and ate it deliciously.

Octopus salad is my favorite one! So fresh and you can smell the citrus. The escargots is AMAZING, the garlic and parsley butter made it so delicious and warm. And the tiramisu is not too sweet, it’s perfect sweetness, surprised at how good the tiramisu was at a restaurant and not a cafe!

Locale had a very nice outdoor setup for dining with fans. We ordered a bottle of Riesling, it was good. The escargots was delicious and tasty. The tuna tartare was excellent and fresh. The veal chop had cartilage and bland for my taste. The pork chop was excellent. The chocolate lava cake was delicious and worth the calories!

Went with a couple of friends. The restaurant was warm and inviting when we first walked in. Very nice looking bar almost vintage. The dining area had sun coming in and had a fireplace. The wait staff was very attentive. Ordered our food and it came out quickly and piping hot. The grilled salmon was delicious. Cooked perfectly. My friends enjoyed there mushroom risotto and branzino. No dessert this trip maybe next time.

Beautiful decor and good service makes this an excellent choice for a casual or to formal event. Consistently excellent appetizers and good execution of the entrees with no outstanding choices. The sides dishes are blatantly over prices. The desert is also all consistently good but also nothing is outstanding. The beer selection is disappointingly limited. The price is definitely on the high side for the quality and portions of food.

I was so looking forward to trying this restaurant. My husband made a reservation for Mother’s Day at 6pm. They had NO food. They brought bread to the table.. we asked for more and they had none. They were out of the majority of appetizers (mussels, calamari, oysters, etc). They were out of the majority of entrees. My husband and I got the ribeye… it was the thinnest steak I’ve ever seen. It was served with 3 mini potatoes that were cut in half and no veg. It was $56/piece. The server apologized and said Saturday night was so busy. Ok, but you knew the # of reservations you had for the next day. Why wasn’t that owner at restaurant depot bright and early to accommodate For the reservations that they reserved? Go to shoprite and get some bread for tables. I will never go back. I will not recommend. It was disappointing because I was going to look at this place for my children’s communion.

Went on Easter. Honestly smallest portions ive ever seen. 43 dollars for scallops and the portion was 4 very small scallops alone with no side. Got calamari as an appetizer, smallest portion of calamari ive ever seen. In terms of taste it was fine but almost any other restaurant is just as good or better with larger portions for cheaper. It felt disrespectful honestly.
