    I have eaten at DiPescara quite often and it was a 5 star experience. Then, after a couple of months I was back at Di Pescara and it was a dreadful experience. The restaurant, in the past, was filled with people who loved the food and atmosphere. When I went on a Sunday, there were very few people on a Sunday noon. Why were there so few people there??? After ordering and getting my food I began to eat and then I knew why there were so few folks in attendance. The lobster tails I had looked and tasted old and dry. What happened? New chef? New management? Whatever happened simply turned me off of one of my favorite suburban restaurants. Oh, well, there are other restaurants in the area to try. Sorry for a negative response. Kevin

    We always have a great experience at DiPescara, from the fresh hot bread served when you arrive, to the cocktails and entrees. Service is attentive. They are well trained. Food always good. Anything wrong, they will fix it. We love the almond crusted white fish and the horseradish crusted whitefish, but they have something for everyone. The salads are generous portions, family style. 2-4 people on a small salad. Right now they have a special menu featuring Maine lobster.

    The name "DiPescara" always brings a smile to my face. The ambiance and service cannot be beat. We came in especially for the July lobster specials. We both ordered the broiled 1 1/4 lb split lobster. We both thought the dish lacked "something"... even split, it was difficult to eat. I thought the value was less than expected.

    We went for the Lobster Festival and it was very good. I had twin lobster tails and my husband had lobster bisque. He didn’t love his dinner but mine was great. His bisque was just a bit salty. Service was good and we had a nice time.

    Our table of 4 really enjoyed the chopped salad. We asked for the dressing, blue cheese, and wasabi peas on the side. Everyone was happy. The shrimp oreganata was delicious with the Israeli couscous. It was also delicious with a sub of roasted brussels sprouts, instead of the couscous. The Mediterranean Branzino was delicious, too.
