What SusanB doesn't like about Donato&co.:
The food was terrible. My pasta did not taste as described on the menu (no Calabrian chili that I could taste, fresh tomatoes instead of sun dried tomatoes) and the dish was SO salty I couldn't eat much of it. I regret not sending it back. View all feedback. What Rachel’s World likes about Donato&co.:
Last night, we had the most amazing meal to celebrate our 4-year anniversary! We chose the prix fixe menu and it was fantastic! Every course was outstanding! From the homemade pasta with shrimp to the fried cod with artichokes and the chocolate fudge with gelato for dessert, every dish was delicious! We highly recommend this restaurant! The service was also excellent. View all feedback.

read moreA restaurant in Berkeley disappointed with undercooked risotto and overpriced dishes. Similarly, a bland experience for a customer, with unsatisfying dishes, subpar service, and high prices. On the other hand, a positive experience featured excellent grilled gambas, Branzino, and pasta. Plus points for Italian wine and knowledgeable staff. Other guests enjoyed an inviting ambience and flavorful dishes. A mix of reviews reflects the restaurant's hit-and-miss quality and pricing issues, ensuring diners either leave satisfied or disappointed. Customers appreciate attentive service and neighborhood convenience, looking forward to returning or seeking gluten-free options with continued social distancing measures in place.
