I love this place unfortunately maybe Saturdays around lunch time is family day, there were so many screaming kids and rude parents doing nada. Food and service always top notch.

Came in not expecting anything fancy, and honestly that’s what made it great. This place doesn’t try to be trendy or over-the-top—it just focuses on good, solid Italian food. The pasta tasted fresh, the sauce had that homemade feel, and the portions were generous without being ridiculous. Service was friendly and relaxed, not hovering but always there when you needed something. It’s the kind of spot you go to when you just want a comforting, satisfying meal without all the hype. Definitely coming back!

Our dinner at Il Posto was amazing. Ana , our server, was attentive, fun, and kind. The entire staff made us truly feel like family. We ordered the build your own pasta. We got pasta with there cremosa sauce, chicken, and spinach. The dish was second to none! The flavors of every bite was awesome. We highly recommend coming here and we can't wait to go back!!

We loved that there were many omnivore AND vegan options. Such a charming, warm atmosphere too. We wish the food wasn't so oily and wanted the artichoke appetizer to be a bit hotter. Portions were very big!
