    This was our second visit to Fontana Grill. The first visit, we sat at a table and were well attended to. The food we ordered was delicious. The second visit we sat at the bar. The weight staff was super attentive just as it was when we were seated at a table, the first visit. The team sees something needs to be done and does it. Empty glasses, refilled, dirty dishes, removed, a box for leftovers, anything that needs doing is done by whoever is closest. In addition to the attentive service, the food is out of this world. We’ve tried two different pizzas, fried calamari, eggplant rollatini, the grilled chicken Caprese salad, and the bruschetta so far. All were amazing. We plan to return soon to try some pasta dishes. We’d highly recommend this great neighborhood spot.

    The all important basic red sauce for an Italian restaurant was disappointing Just blah. That would be my only significant comment Otherwise service, portions and and friendliness was fine

    We were seated right on time for our reservation and our waiter came immediately and took our drink orders and brought bread and olive oil with Parmesan. Once he brought our drinks he took our appetizer order . He waited in we had all closed our menu’s to come take our dinner order. All of the food and drinks came out very quickly! The dinner was excellent - cooked perfectly and tasted heavenly!!

    Been coming here for years. Terrific food and service every time. Manager (may be owner) always greets us as we check in. Great place for an evening meal. Never hear any noise from bar in the main restaurant seating area. Great layout. Highly recommend.

    My experience doesn’t seem to be the norm,based on the great reviews. The fish I ordered was good, but the white wine “sauce” it sat in was more like a thin broth that took away from the dish. It seemed like the pasta hadn’t been fully drained and I was eating pasta water. Also, I do not recommend the blueberry martini. My buddy tried mine and said it tasted like Propel. But the waiter graciously took it off my bill when I sent it back for a glass of wine. Good service, mediocre food.

    Delicious sea bass salad, good variety of choices and friendly and efficient service. Always have a good experience especially outside as indoors is very noisy.

    The food was excellent and so was the service. The only negative was the noise level which was excessive.
