Our server Brian was well educated, kind, and knowledgeable about the pastas, the pizzas, the menu, the olive oil, and what alternatives for certain choices without diminishing the taste of the pasta/pizza. Everything tasted so delicious, we tried the taste testing pasta which is 3 different pastas for 38$ per person. The pastas were so creative and very tasty, as well as the truffle pizza. Would definitely come back.

We had a wonderful Christmas Eve dinner at Eataly! We started with the Caesar salad and the Insalata di cavolo nero followed by several mains. The Capricciosa pizza was amazing with a perfect traditional crust, and the Salsicciotta was very good too. We also tried two types of lasagna: the Emiliana and the Ai Funghi. While both were tasty, the Lasagna Emiliana was definitely my favorite. Overall, a great experience with truly authentic flavors. I’ll gladly be back for more!
