    The server was very patiently took the order and made recommendations when asked. The recommendations were good. He checked on on us intermittently and it was nice being at a restaurant where you were treated with grace and attention. The ambiance was good too. Have been introducing my friends to this place since last year! Never disappointed.

    Excellent experience. The waiter, Peter, knew we wanted to enjoy ourselves and were in no rush. He set up our dinner to come out in courses and it really was excellent. This is a fascinating place. Not lots of signage outside but as soon as you walk in the door you can see all the care put into every detail. The manager and head chef came over and checked on us, just a great experience.

    I loved the atmosphere, the costumer service was Fantastic the Wine was tasty. I liked that they provided me with a sample because I was unsure before I ordered a glass, Very thoughtful. I ordered the Garlic Knots & Caesar Salad . The garlic Knots were good but because of the Waygu candle the Oil had a candle like taste . The Cesar Salad was Dry. For Entree we ordered (2) Alfredo Pasta’s & 1 Ratonini w/ bolognese. The Pasta was VERY bland & I was very disappointed because it’s the only reason I came ! The chicken & shrimp were well seasoned which was the only reason we didn’t send it back. Ratonini was more flavorful but on the blander side as well. Outside of our meal it was a little Loud. Not too distracting though, I do not think I’ll be returning again or referring anyone.

    We went to Cathedral bistro for Valentine’s Day, food tasted really good but the place was small and noisy. Our waiter was amazing and gave us really good recommendations. The food is a bit overpriced.

    This was our second time coming and both times we’re perfect! This time we went on a Monday to celebrate valentines early and the service was impeccable. Two managers took care of us as we sat on the display bar and got to chat with some of the cooks. I don’t believe any servers were there but they all made us feel just as welcomed and we will definitely be coming for many times after.

    A neighborhood gem, with outstanding service and very warm ambience. Appetizers of garlic knots and Italian egg rolls were fantastic, as were the old fashioned and manhattan starter cocktails. Osso bucco was tasty, but tough. Sea bass over risotto was also tasty but lacked the truffle accents expected from its menu description. Deserts of tiramisu and the pecan signature specialty were very good, just too much richness after a heavy meal. A great place for a nice local dining experience.

    Hi, Let’s get into the good first. We really enjoyed the staff as everyone was very friendly. We ordered the Garlic Knots and Neapolitan Pizza for appetizer. Both of these items were delicious. Pizza was the winner amongst the table. The wine “Barbaresco” was a great recommendation from the front of house manager. I will be buying this wine in the future. Chilean sea bass was good. New York strip cooked to perfection but quality was lacking which I talk about below. The bad, which was the majority unfortunately. We ordered the New York Trip (wagyu from somewhere) was extremely tough and chewy. Along with the chewiness, there were multiple pieces of white tendon running through the steak. I was only able to eat about half the steak. Told the waiter about the chewiness on two occasions when he checked on us. Took my plate at the end of the meal which had the majority of the steak on it. Cacio e Pepe came out late and was more like a thick Alfredo sauce or paste. We didn’t taste any black pepper. Got the crispy Brussels sprouts but no crispy to be found. Very big chunky pieces and soggy. Mashed potatoes swimming in so much butter that the spoon would collect all the liquid butter if we didn’t move the spoon on occasion. Did not eat the mashed potatoes at all. Told the waiter about about the potatoes just like the steak but no response. We had high hopes for this restaurant based on what our friends told us and was let down. Paying $500 for the quality of dinner we had is a bit unsettling.

    My husband and I spent our anniversary and cathedral. It was the first time we visited the restaurant, and we absolutely loved it. The actual restaurant itself is very well decorated. The bar is amazing to look at! The service was wonderful. Our waitress was very sweet and recommended several great dishes. The manager came over and spoke with us more than once, and offered recommendations on really great drinks that he himself designed. We even have the owner come over and ask how are evening was. All in all, the food was very tasty. We enjoyed the rigatoni and the scallops. I would definitely recommend this restaurant two friends! We look forward to returning.

The chef and kitchen deliver. Who would expect all of this at a strip mall restaurant? Don't tell too many people, please.

    Started off with the garlic knots and a Caesar salad- the knots are delicious the bread is made in house so good …the salad portion is huge so it’s shareable …for the pasta had the BUCATINI CACIO E PEPE recommended by the chef great portion size not too much but not too little .. we also had the charred brazino loved the presentation to it and the flavor and how it was cooked perfecto! It is must as a side we had the truffle fries and finally for dessert the hazelnut tres leches …all the plates were just amazing … We will be coming back!
