    The food was excellent and the staff was friendly and helpful despite the Valentine’s Day crowd at the restaurant. We had a wonderful time and will certainly be back very soon.

    We made a mistake ordering off the Valentine’s Day menu. It took over two hours to bring our food….. The service is slow and the lobster I had was not cracked so I had no way of getting to the lobster meat other than the tail……. It was overcooked and was not worth the wait….. extremely disappointed

    We had a great food for dinner and Sunday brunch at Dattilos but service was slow and inattentive. Not a shock for February though.

    Lovly restaurant. Views are beautiful. Food was great. Braised Short Ribs were fantastic Server didn’t know the menu well tho. When I asked if I could trade the polenta for fingerling potatoes he tried to explain that the polenta was a cream sauce (which I know it isn’t). After he talked to the chef he did come back and apologize.

    Jeremy is a superb professional waiter. Datillo salad was outstanding. Mains were good but not great: truffle mashed potatoes were cold; Branzino, a thin, delicate fish, was fried so it was crunchy and had little flavor. Setting is lovely.
