    Three of the guests really enjoyed their meal. One guest has a gluten allergy and was told that the restaurant needed to be informed ahead of time to accommodate gluten free pasta. We had a reservation via open table and the allergy was noted in booking but the restaurant needs more direct notice. Overall the ambiance and service was great. The star review is reflective of the disappointment that one guest was extremely limited in choices as most of the dishes are pasta.

    We enjoyed our experience very much. The restaurant is lovely. The service was good. The food was excellent. I had the braised short ribs and they were delicious. I eat every bite. The restaurant is too loud, but other than that our experience was great.

    We had a variety. The cheese pizza, the short ribs and the fettuccine. All were excellent as usual. We also had three different desserts. We had the Budino, the Torta and Espresso gelato. I also had a free cannoli because it was my birthday. Again all great. Mike was an excellent server and could answer all of our questions about the menu and the wine selections.

    We always enjoy our time and the food at Quanto Basta. It was a special occasion, a Birthday for my wife, so we were able to be seated in the "Grotto", which is much less noisy than the main area of the restaurant. Our server Katie was exceptional.
