   We sat outside to avoid having a noisy experience but it was still incredibly noisy because the tables were too close together.

   This is our favorite local Italian restaurant. If we’re going out, we’re probably coming here. They always make us feel at home and the food is always delicious. We love it at Via del Corso.

   Everything was magnificent at Via del Corso! It has become our home away from home, especially when we have experienced a stressful day. The food and wine are magnificent, the service is consistently fabulous and the lovely woman maitre d always makes sure that we have a perfect table!

   The service was disappointing and could definitely use improvement. We paid in cash, 60% more than the bill, as we only had a large bill. The server asked if we wanted the change, and we said yes. However, when she returned with the change after about 10 minutes, she rudely said, 'We're not a bank.' It would have been better if she had simply told us that they don’t accept cash if they can’t provide change. We had high expectations based on the reviews, but the food was just okay, nothing special. The edges of the ravioli were a bit hard, the special shrimp dish was overcooked, and the pork ribs were tough and dry. It was meant to be a birthday dinner, but it turned into an unpleasant experience.

   This was my second visit and I was disappointed. My friend was vegetarian and there was only one dish on the menu that didn’t contain meat. There was a pasta that was mostly vegetarian but contained anchovies and we asked if it could be made without them and we were told no. The chef wouldn’t accommodate us. One of us ordered pasta that was not completely cooked and another ordered the fish which came with lots of little bones. No mention was made on the menu that it wasn’t deboned. All in all, disappointing. My last visit was much better.

   We had a great night! Our service was attentive and informative on our wine pairing for the evening! He even remembered our note that we made on the reservation! The food was delicious! We would definitely come back again.

   We arrived about 5 minutes early, but our table for four was ready. Service throughout the evening was attentive without being intrusive. The restaurant is luvely, but not so loud as to prohibit conversation. Cocktails (Manhattan, EVOO martini, negroni up, negroni over) were excellent. The latuga salad was fresh, light, and tasty. Two of us had the prawn piatto del giorno, one had the cod, and the other had the pork chop. All were delicious and well prepared. We couldn't help but opt for dessert: affogato, cherry Gelato, poached pear, and cannoli. Again, all excellent. I highly recommend Via del Corso.

   Outstanding as always. I had the short rib ravioli and the chickory salad. Both were delicious. And, the Cicero - a truly inspired cocktail. Service is great. But is can get noisy.
