The food was very good, ample portions. They were taking reservations only on Christmas Eve. Our reservation was for 7pm, but because of low staffing we had a wait, not long, so we waited in the bar. the wait was short (didn't finish our drinks). the staff was great, can't say enough about the service we received. A great time was had by all.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoy coming to Nicoletta's Table. The food is consistently excellent, the service always attentive, and the ambiance very comfortable and relaxing. We always take advantage of the take-out bar, as well, and stock up on some Italian cookies and meat sauce. An outing to Nicoletta's Table is well worth one's time!
