Was Manuel Mansfield at Butera's a mag?
We went out for my wife’s birthday and we decided to try something new. It’s a very nice place and the staff were terrific. The food was very good and the portions were substantial. The only disappointment was the noice level. If you’re looking for a quiet intimate setting, look elsewhere but if you’re looking for good food and service you won’t be disappointed.

What Brian P dislikes about Butera's:
I hadn't been to this restaurant in quite some time, but we decided to go for Father's Day at 8 pm. When we called to see if we could arrive earlier, we were informed that someone would call us back to confirm, but we never received that call.

We had dinner at this restaurant tonight and it was absolutely amazing. The service was attentive, the atmosphere was authentic, and the food was fantastic. The portions were very generous and everything was spot on. Overall, it ranks in the top five meals I have experienced this year and is the best Italian food I have had. Thank you so much, I will definitely be back.

Always solid food at Buteras. Their chicken meatballs are a staple. I prefer them in the vodka sauce which is also great. The pasta with broccoli rabe and chicken meatballs was also delicious. Seafood bolognese has great lump crab meat. Chicken parm was tasty as well. Always a good experience here! Thai calamari is a great app.

Expensive, and I don't particularly like Italian food, but at this place you can steer clear of pasta and tomato sauce and everything was phenomenal.
