Familiar local restaurant with excellent Italian cuisine and dynamite service, although on a night when business was slow. We'll continue to eat there regularly.

Returning customer. Been a while since our last visit ... and don't know why. Was reminded how good the food and service is at this restaurant. The pasta's offered on the menu are fresh and spectacular, with the Carbonara one of the best. Enjoyed the lunch sandwich as well. Highly recommended.

I'm now a fan of the prix fixe menu when it is offered; the courses were beautifully crafted and delicious on Easter Sunday. Donato remains a favorite place to eat.

Great birthday celebration with my family. Jason, the manager, was extremely welcoming. Our table was perfect, all food was delicious, and our server, Alex, was terrific! Tried some Amaros that were new to us and had a great discussion about them.
It is delightful to have such a gem of a restaurant within walking distance. We take our out-of-town visitors here, too!

The service was terrible. We waited over 30 minutes for someone to take our drink order and then waited an additional 35 minutes to get our drinks. The food arrived 20 minutes after the drinks. The restaurant had many empty tables.
My partner enjoyed their food, a spinach pasta dish. The waitress suggested a substitute for the lamb sirloin which she described as a chop. It was a lamb shank. She described the side as mashed potatoes; it was mashed parsnips. The dish was so sweet, it was inedible. Instead of an Italian preparation with artichokes and herbs, it had a very sweet reduction sauce. A very disappointing experience.
