Il Poeta - Table reservation

First and foremost, I want to attest -in writing- that no individual associated with Il Poeta asked me to submit a review. I mention this as we have enough societal charlatans who try to control every aspect of our responses, reactions, and thought process. That being said, the experience this restaurant affords is magically splendid to say the least. Our dignified and utterly charming server was Sergio. He exudes class by being a thoughtful, caring and conscientiously intelligent man.

I finally tried this restaurant after passing by multiple times. It's fancier dining compared to other restaurants in the area but no pressure to dress up.

First time visitors to Il Poeta last night after passing by so many times. We are sorry we did not stop in sooner. We had an exquisite meal with each of us choosing from the specials for the night, one lovely risotto and the me freshly fileted orata, topped off by desert and grappa. Owner/chef Mario di Chiara comes out and walks the floor and spent some time at our table speaking with us as well. It's such a revelation when you sit down for a meal and have such outstanding service (thanks Luis) along with delicious food and wine.

We came here for a birthday celebration. Omg. The truffle taglettele was amazing! The other pastas were just okay. The braised sorry ribs were good, nothing super outstanding. The tiramasu was awesome! Service was great, although they are not sommeliers... so, know your own wine! The decor was standard Italian restaurant.
