Come enjoy old Italian-style dishes, known today as Italian comfort food, at The Kitchen Consigliere as executive chef Angelo Lutz preserves the heritage of real, authentic homestyle cooking. His spot is an informal BYOB Italian eatery with an emphasis on the peasant dishes found in traditional homestyle Italian cooking. Influenced by the dishes he ate as a youngster, Angelo's cooking style stems from teaching and recipes taught by his mother and grandmother. The atmosphere is informal and the food and menus change often, allowing The Kitchen Consigliere to be a cozy, quaint and not over-the-top eatery for the entire family. And good food isn't the only reason to eat at the café. The real adventure is meeting with the real kitchen consigliere; you will come for the food but stick around for the conversation.

Food is claimed to be made to order yet don’t allow substitutions or any changes. Our arancini came out with a frozen center. The bread was cold and we were not given a dish with oil, or butter. The meal itself wasn’t awful, but wouldn’t consider it better than Olive Garden, with a more expensive price tag. Our server was apologetic, and was helpful, but it was not worth the price and we definitely won’t be going back.

Very large portions so we could barely eat half of our veal and sea bass entrées. Accompanying salads were very good. I am not a real foodie, but I found the pasta under my fish to be very watery? Perhaps, it was supposed to be watery, but I found it off putting. Also did not need a dozen shrimp on top of the sea bass, but bigger eaters might like that. Service was prompt and polite. Ambiance was ok after we asked to be moved to the quieter front room.

The food was excellent -we started with fried calamari and the huge meatball and spinach rabe-excellent. In addition, the the four of us had chicken, eggplant and veal parmigiana and veal piccata. The gravy was slightly sweet and to die for! Canollis to bring home were also delicious. Atmosphere and Sinatra music in teh background were great. Alot of diners; place was busy.

1st visit to this restaurant though I'd heard a lot of good about it and it did not disappoint. Mediterranean Salmon dish was exceptional. One of the best pan seared salmon dishes Ive ever had. The artichoke hearts in the topping were outstanding. The Rigatoni Bolognese was equally delicious. All were served hot and spaced out so as not to feel rushed. Kim was outstanding as our server. Only average part was the Arancini (rice balls). They were huge, hot and tasted OK. Better served as 4-6 bite sized ones IMO.

We arrived early for our reservation and were seated immediately. Our server Bree was fantastic. We were impressed with how she was able to open a bottle of wine while telling us about the specials. Bree was very attentive making sure we had everything we needed throughout the evening. It was a great evening.

We sat outside so it was just basically a tent which was fine . The service was excellent but I thought for the money I had lemon chicken with a side of pasta I thought the pasta could have been a bigger portion not so much a side dish but part of the entree with a larger portion . I know food costs are out of control but pasta isn't that much but the meal was good.

We went to Kitchen Consigliere because of an email notification of lasagna night. I started with a good lentil soup and my husband had the house salad which comes with the entree. We both ordered the lasagna and added meatballs. It was delicious. Especially the sauce. We ended the meal with homemade gelato and cappuccino. All in all a great meal.
