    What a spectacular restaurant. Service, food, wine couldn’t be any better. Highlights include the egg yolk ravioli with truffle sauce and shaved white truffle, the pappardelle al sugo - a rich and flavourful bolognese style sauce, the costelleta capriciosa (veal Milanese) best I’ve ever had, and the branzino. Have tried most things on the menu. The 3 season patio is magical and the staff is as good and attentive as I’ve ever encountered. The proprietor, David; the maître d, Elio; and the sommelier, Florian are all world class and amazing people. Could not recommend more highly

    Amazing early dinner on a Friday night. Almost had the place to ourself, really connected with our waiter, the cavatelli with sausage and broccoli rabe was great- ask for extra parmigiana. My wife loved the bolognese- best entree of the night. For appetizer, we had the zucchini flowers stuffed with ricotta and fried- delicious! The hospitality and atmosphere was amazing. Too full for dessert. They even had my favorite bourbon- Weller 12- a bit pricey but loved it! The Hall Cabernet was a perfect pairing. Highly recommend the above!

    As always the owner David, makes you feel at home, when you visit Valbella, food is always great and long list of wines, however, better to buy wine by the glass is easier than committing to a bottle. Also we like our bread toasted and asked and they delivered. Thank You Brian Geller

    The restaurant is on the second floor and was basically empty at 8:30 on a Friday night which felt very awkward. The music was too loud. The nice part was it sort of an inside outside feel. Bolognese was very yummy. But to be the only people in a large restaurant is not comfortable!

    1 1/2 hours after we arrived we still did not have our entrée. Appetizer was a simple little salad.
