   Table was ready at the time of reservation and was seated promptly upon arrival. Service was very good. Ordered appetizers which came out in good time and were very good. We had ordered entrees at the same time as the appetizers. Entrees came out before we could finish our appetizers which was bad timing. Sitting at a small table there was no room for all the plates so the appetizers had to be picked up without the opportunity to finish them. We were offered to pack up the appetizers which was not preferable. Entrees ordered was the lobster risotto and the swordfish. Both meals were extremely salty. The risotto had large pieces of shallots and the lobster was overcooked. Entrees were disappointing. Would go there again but not order the same entrees and it was not worth the money spent.

   My husband and I had a lovely dinner to celebrate my birthday. The food and cocktails were excellent, and the service was stellar.

   The food and service were excellent. The only criticism is that it has a limited menu.

   This was our third visit to Candela Cucina and once again it was a huge success. The food is always excellent as is the service. It has become one of our top go to spots for special occasions. The atmosphere is very cozy and welcoming. Love it and will definitely be back.
