I work at the UPS in the same plaza and have had several customers recommend this restaurant. Tonight I decided I'd give it a try and took my friend along with me. I was seated very quickly and given plenty of time to order. We got our food in a timely manner and it was still sizzling hot! The lasagna was insanely delicious and don't get me started on the cheesecake. The atmosphere is so calming and gentle, which is a big thing for me; it was very clean, tidy, and well decorated. This is the best food I've had in a very long time and I will definitely be going again. The staff was wonderful and our waiter even cracked jokes with us. I highly urge you to give it a try!

It was very busy when we arrived.We didn't have reservations but were seated quickly. Owner apologized for delay of service. Short staffed. No delay at all. He accommodated my request for pasta with plain tomato sauce. Even brought me a sample to try. My husband was very pleased with his messy chicken pasta meal. It looked delicious. Great experience and food. Treated like family. Just like the owner said. We'll definitely go back. FIVE STARS !

We received excellent service from Nero during our visit. My wife and I arrived just after 1 PM when the restaurant was quite peaceful, with only one other couple dining there. I really enjoyed the sampler, which included manicotti, cannelloni, and lasagna. My wife ordered the eggplant parmigiana and absolutely loved it. We finished our meal with tiramisu, making for a wonderful dining experience overall!

This restaurant in Georgetown is likely one of the best-kept secrets. The lasagna and meatballs are fantastic, and the fresh bread they serve is absolutely delicious.
