Food amazing pork belly out of this world. The calamari so good. This time the service wasn’t great but ill chalk it up to the fact it was after 6pm and a Sunday. But ill still go back and hope it was a one time thing. But overall I love this place

Went there for Easter brunch. Food was very mediocre and so was service. On my own would not have provided 20% gratuity but that was their policy. I would have only given 15% and that would have been generous considering it was a brunch buffet. We’ve decided no more Easter buffet brunches.

Judged when served. Came during happy hr and out of all the ppl that came in. I’m the only 1 that was charged full price. Manager said working on computer that’s why it happend. Yet why am I the only one it affected? Like I’m from Jersey bruh. Stop discrimination. We all love a drink smh

Yesterday I went to il vecchio for Valentine’s Day, and let me tell you they did not disappoint! As always the food was delicious with superb customer service. Every time I go to Calandras I feel so welcome and certain that my meal will be excellent. I just recently had a baby and my husband and I really needed a night out and il vecchio delivered! Delicious food, amazing drinks and beautiful atmosphere! Can’t wait to go back!
