    Such a treat! Everything was delicious and we went all out - apps to dessert! The food was fresh - Gnudi (gnocci with ricotta instead of potato), chicken parm and cioppino were all amazing! The tiramisu is an absolute must! DiFebo's is charming. The staff was attentive but also relaxed. We really enjoyed the meal and experience. 100% recommend!

    Wife and I went for dinner on a Sunday. Made reservations just in case it was super busy. We saw a ton of good reviews and frequent their market across the street so it was great to be able to finally get to the restaurant. It did not disappoint. They were on point for everything. Service was great and the food was excellent. We had the Burrata as an app along with the Baby arugula salad. Good size for apps to share between two people. A larger party would need a couple apps, but I would say don’t go crazy and fill up on apps only. I got the Chicken Parm for dinner and my wife got one of their specials with shrimp and crab served over pasta. Entrees are definitely a health portion so you will not be hungry. Desserts: I got the peanut butter cake and my wife ordered an olive oil citrus cake. Both were excellent but I’d say the olive oil cake is the one to try since it’s different and not available everywhere. We capped the night with a cappuccino and their homemade limoncello.

    W were greeted upon entering and shown to our table right away. It was in a nice cozy spot and the noise level was low so you could hear each other talk. That was important since this was a date night. Our server came right away, introducing herself and providing water & menus. We had the calamari which was lightly fried to perfection to start our meal. We also took advantage of the half price wine night with a delicious bottle of super tuscan. Since it was Ravioli night we went ahead and ordered that. Everything was delicious! Our meal was not rushed and the various courses were timed just right. The service, ambiance & food cannot be beat at DiFebos!

    As always, the meals we had were delicious and the service was excellent. It's nice to have a menu loaded with so many choices that we can go back frequently and not have the same thing twice. The "family" vibe comes through in the service and creativity of the dishes.

    Being relatively new here, our first time at DiFebo's and decided to have our anniversary dinner there. Started out with the Fried Roman Artichokes which was excellent. Would love to know how they prepare this crispy appetizer. My wife had the Osso Buco which she loved; fork tender and the first time being served with a marrow fork. I had the Cioppino Fra Diavolo which I would say was one of the better ones I've tried (and coming from the Bay Area, is saying something). The base was spicy and rich, and full of seafood. The homemade pasta was a nice touch, but I would have like more bread for sopping. Our waiter Sergio was excellent and greatly appreciated his recommendation of choosing the Zinfandel over the Chianti for my dish.

    The waiter was knowledgeable, Italian and had a good memory of how he used to speak English. The pasta was fresh and interesting and the ragout strong and wholesome. A different experience from the cutout Italian restaurants. Give it a try.
