Candelori's
Description
Once a neighborhood staple with years of loyal patrons, Candelori's recently disappointed a long-time customer: a booked reservation resulted in a 45-minute delay, the front-desk interaction was brusque, and menu prices have risen. While past consistency has inspired word-of-mouth recommendations, service lapses and perceived value issues suggest management must act to restore the trust of regulars.

The service was fantastic! We indulged in a variety of dishes, eager to sample a little bit of everything. We were so full that we unfortunately had to pass on dessert! If you're looking for an elegant dining experience in this area, I highly recommend it. Enjoy!
Absolutely fantastic! Every time we visit, the food is incredible, and the service is unmatched. The cheese platter is prepared right in front of you, complete with information on the cheese's origin and aging process. Our waiter, Antonio, was so entertaining and kept us laughing throughout the meal. The cheeses were delightful, and I highly recommend trying the truffle oil cheese—it's outstanding! Thank you again, Candelori's, for making my birthday even more delicious!
My husband and I traveled nearly an hour to celebrate our anniversary at this restaurant, and we absolutely loved it. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted warmly. The food was exceptional, and the dessert was simply heavenly. I had the crème brûlée, which was divine. To top it all off, we were treated to complimentary champagne to help us celebrate. I highly recommend indulging yourself by visiting this fantastic restaurant.
I'm surprised I'm the first person to review this place. From the road you think this place is just a small local Italian joint but it actually extends all the way down the back and is packed on weekends. They have 2 seating times on weekends so make sure you book or you're not going to find a free table. I had high hopes for this place and it delivered. Great atmosphere and great Italian service. I loved how the menu was so different from other Italian places I've been to. That being said they have a very extensive menu which made it difficult to choose from. My only complaint would be that our pizza entree was really salty and my duck ragu was a tad salty but the rest of my table loved their choices. The waiter recommended the linguine con salsiccie e porcini and it was a fabulous recommendation. For anyone as obsessed with truffle as I am, this is definitely the dish for you! There will definitely have to be a trip back for round 2!
Went to this place with 5 other people, it's huge! The menu leaves you thinking you just read a novel after looking through all of it! I always thought huge restaurants with endless menus don't produce the best food.. But this place proves me wrong. I had hand made macaroni in ricotta and basil pine nut pesto. Delicious. With the beautiful basil infused olive oil left on the plate at the end for you to mop up with fresh crusty bread for the table. But I will add it was very pricy. Very pricy. The only thing that let down the place was the service, arrogant wait staff who would actually give us a annoyed attitude and look every time we asked for tap water not sparkling. When asked if they could leave the jug we were told it will be filled when ever needed instead. When we left slightly parched and sick of asking for water, we noticed the table behind had 8 people with 2 huge jugs of water....
