This was our first time eating here and we were not disappointed! Everything from service, to food and ambiance. Our server Kylea was great and explained everything very thoroughly! Definitely a place you can have anything from an intimate date night to a gathering with friends and family. We definitely will be regular customers from here on out! Keep in mind the price of the food definitely reflects quality but I promise you will not be disappointed!

We really enjoyed our experience at Momento, the food was great and service was just as good. Alanna was our server, she was awesome. I think I would have preferred the specials be printed, our server explained them very well but there were so many I would have preferred to have been able to read them over to make an informed decision on my meal. Also, I think the cocktail menu was very limited if you were looking to have something other than wine or a martini.

Sat at the bar for a change. Love the poached lobster Caesar salad now on the regular menu. Monk fish and veal ragu - also on regular menu - were amazing! And we had enough leftovers for our lunches next day. Thank you Chef Nicola for an extraordinary dining experience. And thank you Olivia for the excellent service!

The meal was good but very overpriced. I am lean in stature and my main course was a very small portion for $45.00. I finished the meal in about 5 minutes. The noise was loud for the occasion and environment and the music selection needs to be reconsidered. Overall a two star for my experience and I don't plan to be a repeat customer.

The food and presentation was wonderful. There was a keen attention to detail. Truly an unexpected gem for the area. Momento has a very comforting atmosphere without that stuffy vibe you get at some other fine dining establishments. A few of our highlights included fresh white truffles, the expertly frenched lamb, raviolo, & seared foie gras. Although this is a far drive for me, I hope to return soon.

been coming here for years....place is going down hill...prices way up portions smaller...quality of food not as good as it once was ....seems like lack of interest by owners to keep it fresh...one of our party asked for chicken francaise but wanted oil and garlic on the pasta (not francaise sauce)..we were told that couldnt be done....He orders that at other italian restaurants all the time and its never been an issue.
MomentoResponded on October 20, 2023
We are sorry you did not enjoy your experience. For what its worth restaurants like regular Americans are experiencing sky rocket prices. We only buy quality which does affect the price. As for the pasta. When one chooses say Chicken Francaise the pasta is put in the same pan and tossed with the sauce that is the ingredients that you are paying for. To make pasta with a different sauce is another charge as it requires different ingredients and another pan taking up a burner on the stove. We do hope in time you will consider coming again. Thank you for your visit.

We have been going to Momento for a few years now, going back to when it was mostly a pizzeria. The food was always amazing. We travel an hour each way for their food. This time we brought some good friends with us to try it. Were we dissapointed. The menu seems to change weekly and so does the quality of the food. Nothing had the same flavors we were used to and the portions were noticeably smaller. The prices in my opinion are way too high for this area, it's not Manhattan so I don't expect to pay Manhattan prices. They're losing their every day customers and We're probably not going back.

Great little restaurant! We went on a Sunday at 5. So when we arrived it was quiet. Got busy by the time we left but still wasn’t loud. Nice ambience. They have a patio outside that looks very nice too. Some of their menus items are pricey, but there you can get a pasta dish from $24. Appetizers we tried were the mussels and also the scallops with artichokes. Both were excellent!!We had the Seafood Fra Diavolo. It was delicious! Dessert we had the panne cotta and a layered mousse. Both were fantastic! I would recommend and would definitely go back. Our server was attentive, she gave us plenty of time to look over the menu. We didn’t have to wait too long for anything, except the dessert at the end, but by then all the tables were full, so that is understandable.

Our dining experience started with a great server Karen and was followed by an awesome meal. We ordered 3 specials all were delicious. Drinks have always been smaller than average at Momento but good. I did miss the hot rolls with the olive oil & ricotta cheese, they served olive oil & focaccia instead. Highly recommend this restaurant. Have been here several times always consistently great food.
