    Valerio's is one of the best restaurants Little Italy has to offer. It has a varied menu, friendly staff and pleasant, upscale decor, differentiating it from some others with dated, dark interiors. Their classic Italian menu includes some typical, reliable favorites, but also some more modern dishes and daily fresh seafood and other specials.

    Staff was very kind and knowledgeable and the pasta was delicious! Restaurants is small so you are close to other tables but it’s not too loud!

    All was great except, unfortunately, the osso bucco was chewy.

    Valerio's is one of two favorite restaurants in Little Italy. They always have three fish specials, and three meat specials. Branzino and cioppino are two of my favorite dishes there, my husband loves their chicken dishes, my daughters the pasta, but you really can't go wrong. Their potatoes are succulent, their salads and well thought out, their tiramisu the best in Little Italy.

    When you think of "Little Italy vibes", this place is it. The Penne Alla Bolognese will make you weep, it's THAT good! Not sure we'll be going anywhere else when we visit again.

    Excellent food- we had Linguine alle Vongole and the Scaloppine ai Funghi. Caprese Salad also excellent which we split. Amanda, our server, did an efficient job and very thorough. FYI There is an $18 charge for valet parking-no problem with that except it wasn’t listed or mentioned anywhere.
