    Another perfect evening. For the appetizer, we went with the Arancini. Light and delicious. The salads were great. House made croutons and dressing were delicious. For entrees, we enjoyed the Veal Parmigiana and Chicken Marsala. Each couldn’t have been better. Full of flavor, perfect portion size. I want to highlight the Gnocchi with the cheese sauce I had on the side. This was heavenly…light but bursting with flavor. Wouldn’t change a thing. 10/10!

    From Phoenix, originally IL, and always wanted to dine at The Hill. Everything about the experience was next-level. Wendy, our server, was excellent, and the food was phenomenal. Host area and all wait staff were wonderful and attentive. So happy we were able to experience Charlie Gitto's, and will return again in the future if I'm in the area!! Cin Cin!

    Cozy restaurant. The front room is charming but very small. If you don’t get a table in the front room by the bar, you are seated in a LOUD room in the back that has about 1/2 the charm as the front. The food is good, service is okay as well. Drinks are cheap but not great.

    Exceptional fine dining at Charlie Gitto's! Amazing toasted ravioli (yes, where they were invented), great pasta and unmatched filet mignon. Service was fantastic by Tim and he made the evening even more special.
