"Honestly, I would suggest going to a different Italian restaurant. The penne pasta was served cold, and the chicken parmesan was presented strangely with the noodles on a side dish and the chicken sauce on a cutting board. The sauce tasted like low-quality ragu, and the lasagna was just average with a too sweet and cold sauce. The bread with garlic, olives, and pesto was okay, but the pesto tasted sour and spoiled. The highlight of the meal was the two garlic cloves. I have never left a dinner with only having taken three bites. The service and atmosphere need improvement, with inappropriate music playing and unacceptable wait times for drinks. When we shared our concerns with the server, we were laughed at and received a dismissive response. Overall, I would not recommend this restaurant. I hope this review helps someone avoid spending $120 on a disappointing meal."

Incredible food with very good service. We had an outstanding evening there.

Very, very good food. Great people. See if you can be seated upstairs, service is understandably slower in the lower level area.

Excellent bar, food, service and decor. I would not hesitate to return. Party of four all had different apps and entrees and everyone loved what they ate. View menu

It was alright service was pretty good food was good but the basement just wasn’t very nice to be completely honest didn’t really look like a restaurant more like a friends basement but can’t complain about anything else

Assagio offers delicious food and a pleasant atmosphere. The only downside was that the waitstaff seemed a bit disorganized - we waited 20 minutes before someone came to our table, and every request we made took longer than expected. However, the food itself was excellent!

Everything was delicious great but our waiter did not check on us after he dropped off the food. We wanted to stay have a second drink but instead he dropped the bill and pretty much kicked us out. I would understand if it was busy but there was only 2 or 3 other parties there. View menu

Came on a very busy Friday night where I had failed to make reservations, but they were still able to accommodate us. Service was good and attentive. Food was well prepared and tasty. Prices were good and very reasonable considering what we had paid 2 nights prior elsewhere. Very good experience overall.

We were promptly seated for our 7:30 reservation, but the service was disappointingly slow throughout our nearly 3-hour meal. The restaurant did comp us a dessert plate, which was a nice gesture. However, the real issue arose when we ordered chicken Milanese instead of veal and were still charged the veal Milanese price of $50. When we brought this up with our server, he claimed that the system only allowed for one price. This was unacceptable to us. We will not be returning to this restaurant, as they failed to provide adequate service and then charged us incorrectly. This is not a good way to run a business, especially in a competitive area.
