We've been to Tarentellis twice now, both for special occasions. The food, the service, the ambiance...all have been fantastic! If you're looking for a restaurant with authentic Italian flavors and staff who care about the service they provide, give Tarentellis a try!

We had a lovely post-graduation dinner, with my 93 year old mother in law. She would give you a 6-star review, as she enjoyed being able to hear and participate in conversation. The food was excellent. The parking area was full, but we found parking around the corner and enjoyed the scenic walk along the waterfront afterwards.
