    Felt like our sever was distracted with closing duties we never got refills on any of our drinks. Including water even though he passed by us several times and looked at our table. This is the only time the service has ever been substandard and it won’t keep us from returning. Still a great restaurant!

    Our Anniversary, couldn't think of a better place to celebrate than the Bootlegger Italian Bistro. We've been here for a birthday and wanted to recreate the great time we had then. The hostess who seated us tried to put us in a high traffic area, but when asked she seated us in a much better location. My wife had the Orange Roughy, which she claimed was sweet and savory. I had the Pork Chop, which was cooked to perfection. Our waiter was knowledgeable and polite, we liked him. The noise level was a little high for me (I wear hearing aids, so the background noise overpowered the conversation we tried to have) thanks especially to the group of ladies who was seated behind us. Overall we enjoyed our anniversary, and plan to do so again.

    Bootleggers always rises to the top! We've eaten there several times for special occasions and have never had a bad experience. The food is truly authentic Italian served with style. If you are celebrating a birthday or anniversary they give you a complimentary cannoli!

    We sat in the bar area in a big comfy red booth and we could watch the hockey game as we waited for our food. Both countries came out hot and delicious service was on par with five step restaurants. We enjoyed our time in our meal. I highly recommend this place if you’re in the area. Lot of nostalgia on the walls place. Place  has been here for over 75 years. In the parking lot still full that should tell you something.

    The food was delicious and very warm. Our server was professional and courteous. The piano singer made our 17th Anniversary very romantic. Thank you for a amazing experience.
