After hearing such great things about Il Palio, my fiancé and I visited for our Valentine’s Day dinner last year (a very delayed review but with Valentine’s coming up I was reminded to post this)! The restaurant is absolutely stunning and we were very excited for a special night out. They had a special menu for Valentine’s Day, and we thought the dishes were good, but we were expecting to have been more blown away. We thought our appetizer of the meat and cheese board was overpriced, considering we were only able to have two small pieces of cheese each. The strawberry tiramisu was a fun dessert for the holiday. The staff were very professional and attentive during our time there. We’re curious to come back and try the regular menu when it’s not a holiday.

This exceptional establishment transported us on a culinary odyssey, reminiscent of Italy's rich gastronomic heritage. From the moment we descended into the enchanting setting on the lower level, we were enveloped in a modern and gorgeously lit ambiance. This environment served as a vivid testament to the essence of Italy, not merely anchored in its historical architecture and design but pulsating vibrantly in its present. Modern Italy, celebrated for its contemporary architecture, exquisite design, fashion, and pioneering spirit, reminds us that the finest Italian restaurants are those that seamlessly blend tradition with modernity. The service was unparalleled—excellent, knowledgeable, and adaptable. Our server offered a plethora of recommendations, each described with such fervor and detail that it sparked an irresistible urge to sample every item on the menu. It felt as though we were meandering through the Italian countryside, led by a local connoisseur eager to unveil the best of its culinary delights. Our gastronomic adventure began with an assortment of starters. These initial delights were akin to the opening notes of a classic Italian opera, setting the stage for the magnificence and beauty that was to unfold. Then, as if transitioning to the second act, the main course gracefully took the spotlight, with the roasted butternut squash filled ravioli making a grand entrance. It was as if a masterful aria had come to life on our plates, with each component contributing to a harmonious fusion of flavors and textures. The unexpected crunch of crumbled amaretti cookies, a dusting of chocolate powder, and a velvety butter and sage sauce created a resonance that exceeded our expectations. The lasagna followed suit, embodying a dish that, much like a meticulously conducted orchestra, escalated to a crescendo of flavors, both comforting and invigorating. Our culinary journey reached its zenith with a dessert that provided a fitting finale—the ice cream with heavy cream and real pistachio, alongside the Blueberry shortcake. These desserts, simplistic in their assembly yet intricate in taste, were akin to the concluding act of a grand Italian opera, leaving us in a state of enduring satisfaction and wonder. This establishment stands as a pinnacle of Italian dining, where each dish serenades Italy with love, and every moment spent delves deeper into its heart.

We had my bridal shower here in their gorgeous private event space downstairs. The food and service was exceptional. The staff went above and beyond to take care of our guests and me personally as the Bride-To-Be. They really made you feel like family and took extra care and attention even making my Nanna laugh and smile. Special thanks to Jenn and the staff for helping us feel right at home. It was a dream bridal shower and I can't thank you all enough!! Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
This is a beautiful restaurant set up on a hill. It is decorated very seasonally and is very appealing. The food is delicious! When I explained that I have a severe onion allergy, they were very understanding and made sure I was safe. Some restaurants make a face when you tell them your restriction. But the staff here was very understanding and I felt they cared and wanted to make sure I had a great dining experience. I so appreciated their kindness! They have quite a nice bar with many drink choices. Everyone was very friendly and welcoming! I cannot comment about the cost, as I didn’t pay for myself. I think it would be a wonderful place to take a date or for a married couple to go for a “date night”!

A very beautifully curated Italian restaurant with terrific ambience. It begins as you enter through the floor to ceiling glass doors and are immediately greeted by the hostess. The first thing you notice is the elaborate bar sitting in the center of the floor with glass marionettes hanging above. They have two dining areas on the main floor, balcony dining, and an overflow room on the second floor. A beautifully appointed white room on the lower level is perfect for private events. The service is first class. The wine list offers a variety of wines to satisfy everyone's taste and budget. The warm octopus salad was a terrific choice to start. The special eggplant flatbread was slightly disappointing but still had a nice flavor. The lobster pasta was cooked to perfection and had a wonderful array of flavors. Completing the dinner with a strawberry tiramisu was wonderful. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $50–100 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes Tiramisu
A very lovely little secret, I feel. Have not ever heard of this establishment. My husband's coworker referred and such a beautiful delight it was. We will definitely visit again! And Jennifer was very knowledgeable, courteous and genuinely friendly. She made the experience a night that will not be forgotten. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $100+

Hands down a 5 star experience. We decided to check this place out for a 40th bday celebration for a party of 10. From service, Jose was excellent and knew the menu inside and out, all the way to each appetizer and main course. Everything was delicious, right temperature, and amazing taste. Drinks were also excellent. If We are ever back into town we will come for a visit. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $30–50 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
My husband and i came in a few weeks ago for date night and it was our first time and we were blown away. The decor and atmosphere was beautiful but Liz our server was the star. She was so amazing, friendly, knowledgeable and made our night 100 times better. We’re sure you get this all the time but please know what a gem you have in Liz- we will be back soon and while the food and drinks were 10/10 Liz is what made us want to come back even more. Thank you! Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $50–100
