    We had an excellent meal. Joe, our server, was a pleasure, attentive, friendly and thoughtful. The food was excellent and we have a great corner table that suited the two of us well. It was our anniversary dinner. Joe welcomed us with a celebratory glass of champagne as soon as we sat done and also treated us to some ice cream and sorbet at the end. A lovely experience.

    The squid ink fettuccini is unbelievable! Everything we ordered was phenomenal though. You can’t go wrong with whatever you select. We really enjoyed the transparency of how the dishes are prepared while sitting at the bar. Can’t recommend Celeste enough.
