"I absolutely love this restaurant! Every time I visit, I indulge in a deli sandwich, pick up some pastries from the display case, grab a coffee from the café, and select something deliciously Italian from the shelves. The sandwiches are consistently amazing, with my personal favorite being the classic Italian. The quality ingredients and freshly baked bread are so irresistible that I find myself craving them for days afterward. You really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. They prepare their cannolis to order, and their sfogliatella is incredible—I'm sure everything else is just as delightful. The coffee is always fresh and exactly what I need. I'm so grateful to have found this place, and I love sharing my recommendations with everyone I know!"

"pros: 5 service! the personal here is incredible. very attentive. sushi was good and the Burrata salad I ordered was delicious! Cons: stuff bake shrimp looked great out of a distance, so we ordered it. When it arrived, we were disappointed. it tasted as if the garnel had been under a heat lamp for hours. a lot of chewing and tasteless. everything in our bill was about $170 for 2 people. with this high price tag they hope that eating something to rave. it was at 8:00 a.m. on a Wednesday night, so I don't know if so close to the conclusion of our experience."

"We had a reservation for 7 and we're not seated until 7:40. Although apologetic, they did not offer a complimentary drink or appetizer for waiting patiently. The beet salad was tasty and enough for 2. I ordered the special stuffed haddock and lobster ravioli, which ended up coming with a salad. The waitress asked if I wanted to forgo the salad instead of offering a reasonable alternative. I had the salad which was good. we waited a long time before our entrees came out. We were not served bread or even offered bread. The meal came out and I can say for the price, I was disappointed with the portion of haddock and the lobster ravioli were warm at best. the flavor was good, but barely warm ravioli was very disappointing. my wife got the cioppino, which was full of seafood, but again, no bread, no crostinI. The waitress was nice, but not very attentive. By the end of the meal we were so disappointed we didnt even bother to stay for dessert or a drink. We will not be returning. The price of the meal for 2 people was absolutely not worth it. Save your money and go somewhere else."

"Get ready to have your taste buds amazed by the Spaghetti al Formaggio Parmigiano Cheese Bowl at this restaurant. The pasta is prepared right on a cheese wheel, and let me tell you, it's just as delicious as it sounds! We chose to celebrate my birthday here, and it was a memorable experience. If you're interested in trying this cheesy dish, make sure to stop by Tuesday through Thursday. My partner ordered the Ravioli ai Funghi and gave it a perfect score of 10 out of 10! The service at this establishment was outstanding. This Italian restaurant truly impressed us. For a better glimpse into their culinary offerings and cozy atmosphere, visit their website as it perfectly captures the essence of mare e monti!"

"I used to really enjoy Oak Barrel Tavern, but my husband and I have become ill after our last few visits. After dining in-house, we experienced food poisoning almost immediately. We thought it was a one-time issue since we had eaten there many times before without any problems. We waited about six months before trying again, this time opting for DoorDash, but unfortunately, we got sick again shortly after eating (and we ordered different items than we had before). We gave it another attempt a few months later with a pick-up order, but once again, we ended up feeling unwell. After three separate occasions of getting sick, each with different food options and ordering methods, we've decided to stop going to the restaurant. It's a shame because the food is tasty, but it's just not worth getting sick over."
