    Volare is one of our favorite restaurants. The quality of food and the service is always excellent. We were a bit disappointed with our last visit which occurred the Sunday after Derby. The menu was limited and the prices were higher than usual. Several of our favorite menu items were not available. Everything was delicious as usual and our server (Sarah) was wonderful. Lesson learned and we will be back!

    Since they were having a Derby party in their tent next door, there were no modifications allowed to any dish. No additional side orders allowed, nothing other than order an entire separate meal. That should have been disclosed. Lots of food at our table was wasted. They serve beets on the steak plates, if you hate them or allergic, best of luck. We were excited but sadly disappointed when the waitress, who served our table of 4, only 3 rolls and then chastised us for asking for more “when she could get to it”. Apparently, we should have had 4 but due to the “party” they must have messed up in the kitchen. I don’t know how this restaurant was so highly rated for the food, steak was bland (one was even a $96 Waygu), chicken parm had minimal flavor and the rigatoni was boring. $400 later and we all left hungry. Should’ve gone to McDonald’s.

    The service was friendly and flawless- like the cocktails !! The Inverno salad was exceptional as was my husbands Caesar salad. We loved the veal Marsala and the chicken Parmesan . Don’t miss the desserts - all four were spectacular! Volare is simply the best in town.
