    The Blue Fin Toro Nigiri was so delicious, we added 2 extra orders to our dinner. The service was wonderful, they used name recognition and had perfect flow with delivery/clearing of plates. We sat at the sushi bar and got to watch all the chefs work together flawlessly. It was a treat!

    It had been almost two years since we've dined at Spuntino, but it shows no signs of slowing down - the seasonal pasta dishes were inventive and delicious, the olives warm and zingy, and the cocktail menu still has a bunch of superb options, including reasonably priced N/A! Our server was welcoming and the window-side table in the late-fall evening light of the Highlands was the perfect ambiance. 10/10 meal, I hope Spuntino sticks around for many years to come.
