    This was my first time visiting Colletta. Overall the food was great! It’s a little pricey, but I don’t mind paying more for good food. Our waiter was another issue. Mitch, could benefit from a few customer service courses. There were many times when he took way too long checking in on us. We had to constantly remind him to bring us drink refills and to clear plates. However he did have a great time playing with his other waiter friends. The restaurant was not busy when we were there so there wasn’t any reason why I service should have taken as long as it did. Outside of Mitch, we really had a great experience!

    Overall great! Food and drinks were very good. Only disappointment was that I read reviews about the restaurant doing things for special occasions like setting flowers and drinks on the table, giving gifts, and complimentary drinks and dessert. I didn’t get any of those things besides being told “happy anniversary”. The restaurant messaged me a couple days before my reservation asking about our favorite drinks and hobbies, I replied with a message about drinks we like. We ordered a drink at dinner and our server acknowledged our note much later after we had already finished our drink and asked if we wanted another but we said no thank you. No offer for a complimentary dessert either as I saw on many other reviews. I thought maybe our drink would get taken off the bill, but it was not. I definitely don’t expect free things, but I had an expectation of some sort of special treat based on other reviews and the restaurant messaging me directly about my anniversary as well, just flowers on the table would have been nice. It’s okay though, food and service was excellent otherwise. I’d like to come again!

    Food is mediocre. Not great. Not worth all the wait time for reservations or the prices. Too much garlic in the red sauce. My pasta dish (not tomato based) was way too watery. Ceases salad super low brow compared to what you’d expect at a spot like this. Wait staff was kinda phoning it in. Didn’t seem to know their stuff. Ordered a wine that never arrived. They didn’t notice. Asked for it twice. Still didn’t come. Not sure what the fuss is about. So many great restaurants in the world. We won’t be back.

    We had been here once before but decided to come back for our anniversary dinner. Oh my goodness! The level of service we experienced was fantastic. They had flowers at our booth waiting for us, and both our server and the manager wished us a happy anniversary, and when we ordered tiramisu for dessert, they decorated the top with "Happy Anniversary." All of these details combined with an absolutely delicious meal and service from our waitress Morgan made it a wonderful night out for two tired parents! We will definitely be back. Thank you, Colletta!

    My wife and I had a dinner date here for the first time and we were very pleased with our experience and the food. The only small complaint that we had was that no bread was included with any of the entrees. We thought it reasonable that if you're going to pay $150 for a meal that we shouldn't have to pay extra for bread. Other than that we wouldn't hesitate to recommend it and we will definitely be returning in the future.

    Thank you for your review! I am sorry that we did not mention about our house made focaccia being available for purchase with your entrees. We bake it fresh everyday and takes a lot of time and care.

    The food was good, but not amazing. Wine list was nice, though they were out of several bottles and noted that they may serve a different vintage than listed. Our server was friendly and accommodating. Note, it is loud so not a place for a quiet conversation. Overall solid restaurant, but not worth waiting weeks to get a reservation.

    We were told by multiple sources that the lasagna was the best thing on the menu and had a delicious bolognese sauce. When we got our food the lasagna was cold, had very little meat and barely anything between the layers of noodle. The popette sauce was watery. Waiters did not come around to fill waters or ask for additional drinks. Parmesan was not offered for all pasta dishes.

    Ate here for lunch and the menu wasn't that extensive. The pasta I had was VERY al dente and there were only a few actual dishes on the menu. Great place if you want to eat pizza for lunch. I'll try their dinner menu to see if it is any better but this isn't a place that I'd seek out but I'd go if I was in the area.

    Had focaccia and Caesar salad - both excellent. Entrees were chicken parmesan and veal chop - both were over cooked and pasta was dry and gluey. Had tiramisu and peach crostata for dessert - both excellent. Service was excellent and tipped accordingly. Not his fault.

    I enjoy the Fenton area as it's reminiscent of places I've lived before with vibrant open air malls. Colletta sits right in the middle of all the fun and has great indoor and outdoor seating options. Our server, Clara, was a breath a fresh air. Attentive and knowledgeable. Now for the food! We started with the focaccia, crispy clam strips and the Florentine salad. Alllll delicious! You can tell all of the ingredients were fresh and it was cooked to perfection. For entrees we ordered the bucatini and the mafaldine. Both were amazing but the bucatini was outstanding! The shrimp were cooked perfectly, the sauce was smooth and unbroken and the bucatini itself was the perfect texture. Needless to say we will be back!! Well done!

    The experience was exceptional from reserving the table to the end of the meal. I reserved the table and then was reached out by staff because I indicated it was for a birthday celebration. They asked for some details, not knowing that they'd use that to make a cute birthday surprise in the form of a wrapped framed birthday picture waiting for us at arrival. After a wonderful meal experience, we got a complimentary desert parfait that was awesome but light to not over do it. I'd recommend checking them out for even a regular dinner, let alone a special occasion because they make you feel welcome and special. Thank you again for unique and memorable experience!

    We had a great experience dining at Coletta for my wife's birthday. Prior to our arrival, I was able to share some details about what she enjoys - specifically different types of cocktail spritzes. Coletta put together a flight of different spritzes for her to try as a surprise, and also included a slice of tiramisu at the end of our meal. Beyond that, the food was delicious: we had the focaccia, scallops, lasagna and pappardelle, all of which were very good. Lastly, our server Mitch did an excellent job making it a warm, friendly, and fun experience. Highly recommended!

    Service is great. Ambience is amazing. The place is clean and cozy. About the food: We both had the bolognese pasta. It was good but not great. The meat (ground) didn’t taste like the right bolognese condiments were used. It had a bold taste like it was just cooked in the pan with no condiments. To be fair I just moved to NC from Rhode Island where the Italian influence is very strong. So my standard for Italian food is really high. Other than that as I mentioned at the beginning of the review it is a nice place to visit. However if we decide to go back I won’t have the bolognese.
