My family all enjoyed the food and the prices were pretty reasonable. The waitress disappeared for long stretches but that probably had more to do with the busy night and having tables spread around. We would go back.

We stopped here on our way up north for a girls’ weekend at the cabin, and it was such a great experience. The food was fresh and tasted home-cooked, like it was made with care. Carol, the owner, came over to talk with us. She was so kind and welcoming. You can tell she runs a wonderful restaurant. Our server Hannah was also excellent—friendly and attentive! Definitely a place worth visiting!

Picture this! It’s the day before Valentine’s Day and you forgot to book a reservation! Frantically you call Valentini’s. The dread spreads over your face as you hear they are already booked out. Little did you know you were talking to the most kind hearted lady in the world Carol that helps out with a rescue kit. She saves the day what a super hero! Even though this is a true story what I’m try to say is this. A restaurant needs more than great food, and let me tell you the food is outstanding! A restaurant needs personality, a friendly environment, and passion. With Carol there Valentini’s can’t miss!

Really excellent Italian food. Authentic, delicious. Gnocchi, penne alla vodka, and salmon were fine choices. Able to manage lactose intolerance. Decent beverage choices. We had very attentive service on a busy night, and everything was ready quickly. Delightful meal. Reservations were required for Grandma's Marathon weekend.

It is sometimes super busy, so make sure to make a reservation. The atmosphere was amazing and romantic, the music is not too loud, and the staff was so amazing and friendly. Our waitress was so sweet and we didn’t feel pressured even when it took us a while to decide what we wanted to eat. We got the Artichoke dip and it was amazing, I don’t like artichoke, but this was amazingly hot and creamy. I ordered the fettuccine Alfredo and it was super creamy and rich. My boyfriend got the barbecue bacon brisket. He loved it but he felt like the sauce was a but too sweet for his taste. After eating the waitress asked us if we wanted to see the dessert table, she showed us a variety of cakes and cheesecakes, we got the raspberry cheesecake and it was very creamy and had a lovely taste of raspberry. If you have a big appetite i suggest you eat some bread with olive oil and balsamic vinegar or some artichoke dip before your meal. The wait for the food was a bit long but it was worth it. We loved it 11/10 would recommend!

We stopped by this past weekend for the first time ever. The waitress informed us that it was best to make a reservation if we knew if we were coming because they filled up fast. She was able to find us a table and was very helpful. The food was fantastic, and the service was great. We will be back for sure and definitely would recommend this place and recommend setting up a reservation before coming. They even have a good selection of desserts if you still have room after your meal.
