Weâve eaten at PS Bills three times and had five circle experiences...... not here! Lacks personality, waiters were overstretched and inattentive and slow. Pizza also not quite as good as PS. The place isnât as clean, too. I will not be returning to this location.

My beloved and I went for an 8 pm seating at Tiramisu. It was a very nice evening. Good wine, great service. Only compliant is that there was a VERY limited selection of items for New Year's eve.I understand that typically it is much more extensive for dining, however not that night. All was awesome. Staff were fun and in the mode for helping patrons celebrate. Nice venue. Need to really look for it as you can easily pass by and miss it. Same holds true for the front entrance. I would definitely go back.

It is big open space. Nicely decorated with crisp, professional service. It has an extensive wine list, both by the glass and by the bottle. It is a nice place to take someone for a special occasion or to impress. It is on the Paseo, so parking on weekends can be a challenge. But they have valet available. I had the lasagne. It was a nice sized portion, delivered hot from the oven. One person had the branzino and the other had the pappardelle. All looked and tasted exceptional. I would highly recommend it.

Have been several times for dinner with friends. Sometimes service is great, other times disappointed. Food is usually quite good. This restaurant enjoys a very good reputation among locals. We recently hosted a small party here on the patio. Food, service & quality were all excellent. Wine list could use improvement. When we hosted our party they wouldnât let me bring my preferred wine (of course paying a corkage fee), so we had to settle for the wines on their list which were substandard to my cellar, and overpriced.

CLOSED FOR SUMMER - Reopening Nightly Aug.30 2018
Reviewed By Diane S
We recently dined at one of our favorite local restaurants . It was very crowded and fortunately the service remained outstanding but we did feel a bit rushed - three courses served in an hour and fifteen minutes but perhaps there was another seating. All of the dishes the four of us ordered were cooked to perfection- especially the veal . The pasta sides were fine - al dente . The portions were large. The only complaint is the acoustics- the noise level was extremely high and it was difficult to converse .

This restaurant is a short walk from Hotel Paseo. The menu boasts of this restaurantâs connection to Florence which we visited last November. The nice bread was a great start. Adrian our server was attentive. The Chianti and Pinot Grigio brought back fond memories. The Caesar salad was very tasty. Our companions loved their entree choices of broiled white fish, homemade butternut squash ravioli, and carbonara (ânot too creamy and even better than one in Tuscany!â). The light tomato sauce on my linguine seafood (shrimp salmon clams and mussels) was a bit too âwateryâ, and the broken shells (or tiny ones) made it challenging to eat without risking a trip to dentistâs office. Itâs fresh, hot with generous pasta portion though. The Italian Flan desert was light and delicious. Overall a very nice dinner in a relaxing atmosphere. Thank you for taking the time to write such a detailed review! We are so happy that you enjoyed our wine and cuisine. In the future, never hesitate to notify us if there is an issue with your dish. We would have gladly rectified the situation immediately. We are happy you and your friends had a nice experience with us overall! Please come visit us again soon!
