What Louis mauro doesn't like about Acero:
Food was pricy but decent, but very unfortunate experience with the waiter when I went to pay with a gift card. I don’t know if this is restaurant policy or just bad manners on your servers part but the tip line was aggressively crossed out to make sure I did not tip short because of the gift card. Considering the cost of the meal and how much I spent over the gift card amount I was offended. This is something I woul... View all feedback. What Mary Mallozziberg likes about Acero:

This place was amazing and Jake our waiter was excellent. You have to get the four course meal, salad, two entrees (all smaller portions) and dessert.

Acero offers a tantalizing Italian culinary journey, with a $40 four-course meal garnering praise for its flavorful dishes and generous portions. Many diners appreciate the attentive service, particularly from standout waitstaff who enhance the dining experience. However, not all reviews reflect this warmth. Some guests expressed disappointment over the handling of gift cards and perceived rudeness from particular servers, leading to regrets about returning. Overall, while Acero shines in food quality and ambiance, inconsistencies in service may deter potential repeat visitors, leaving a complex impression for future diners.
