My husband took me on a date to a fancy Italian restaurant. The food was exquisite. The beet salad, the califlower salad is definitely to try for. Especially when you have a great appetite and if you are on a healthy diet. The next was the pasta. The pasta i had was great. Seasoned well. All made from scratch. You can see the chefs preparing it. Amazing to see hard work and even better when you taste it. We even had the pork chop. It was delicious. Just melted in your mouth. Afterwards, we ordered the desert. The honeycomb was nice and sweet and the Ice-cream just melted in your mouth. The apricot cake was good too. The service was wonderful. The waiters really took care of you and gave you exactly what you need. Friendly and kind. You can see they love working here and greeting everyone they meet. The chef and the sou chefs are wonderful too. Overall it was a wonderful experience and I would definitely comeback here.

Wow! We celebrated our anniversary here, this past week and we were treated like royalty!! Truly service with a smile - thanks Didi and Sean!! 👍 In honor of our anniversary, we were served sparkling wine to clink on. Additional drinks - beer and cocktails followed with the food. Speaking of the food YUM!! 3 Appetizers of olives, cauliflower, and arancini were so good!! We finished every last bite . Than the mains - Black Bass and Pasta Fazulli . To quote my husband “Amazing”. Dessert - Olive oil cake with marmalade topping (like moms!!) We’ll be there again for sure. If you haven’t gone, make it your next night out!!

Fantastic experience at Fausto. Food was excellent as well as the wine suggestion from sommelier. We had the arancini which is def worth trying if you love arancini. The orecchiette was delightful and the pork was perfect. For dessert the olive oil cake did NOT disappoint although we scrapped off the marmalade because we weren't a fan.

We had an absolutely excellent meal at Fausto from start to finish. The little gem (wow!) and arancini starters were both absolutely excellent, with the focaccia only a slight notch below those two. All of the pastas were great with the Campanelle as the best we ordered. And the panna cotta dessert was very good. Excellent service, good atmosphere, and we would definitely return.

We celebrated our anniversary dinner at Fausto and were treated like royalty! From the moment we stepped in the door, staff were attentive, patient, and professional. They bent over backwards to accommodate our dietary needs and answered all of our questions. The food was outstanding and we loved the cozy seating in the restaurant's wine cellar. Two days later, and we are still talking about the amazing pasta! A delight, highly recommend, thank you Fausto!!

Attractive room, lovely staff, nice wines, but the food was a miss. Did you ever feel like "they" were trying too hard to make the dish more interesting or nouveau? This food menu is the poster child of that . Lest start from the beginning... Great room. The decor and finishes are very smart looking. Not smart as in intelligence but in neat, clean, simple but highly designed,... just a very handsome room. The professional service with a smile is stellar. From hello to goodbye, every person who works there is informed, gracious, and operates with elegance. Nice drink/wine list. Some interesting and odd choices, but a very simple yet well-rounded menu for a wide range of pallets. They even offered to let us taste a few before choosing and insisted on a fresh glass when the decision was made. And the stemware itself is beautiful, as were the actual dishes. On to the food... I don't know.... something is off. All of the ingredients seemed fresh. All beautifully prepared and presented...just the tastes. The cauliflower appetizer was very tasty but a little dry...needed something a little creamy with it, or perhaps warm... but it was considered a cold dish so obviously not warm...but it needed something I did like it very much, which is great because it was the only thing I ate all night. We were a table of 4 and all tasted each other's dishes... the Arnacini was ok-ish. The sauce was just acid, the ball was basically just cheap, stringy mozzarella in a fried ball with barely any rice, and just not any flavor. The focaccia was wet un the middle. Nice seasonings on top, and a good dipping oil. The Bass was probably the best entre.. that's all I can say about that. The tagliatelle was completely tasteless with wet meat on top and not an ounce of sauce of any kind. Like boiled wet meat taken out of a pot with a slotted spoon, and that's all the sauce you get. No red, not a little oil,...just wet meat on noodles. The Lumache was ok, but really odd to have it in the main entry category. It's an app at best. I was get that again for lunch maybe..certainly not a dinner. Nothing to do with looking for a big American plate..it's just not dinner. Cold greens on a chick pea pancake basically is not dinner. It was ordered because we thought they were doing something different to it, but no. Then the worst of the worst, the capellini nero.. what the hell.... rock shrimp..ok, roasted fennel...I'm with ya...then n'duja.. I asked what it was, pork glaze with spices and a little bite at the end. It seemed like such an odd combo I had to try it. Well odd it was. The sauce is way to strong to taste the other ingredients. It's way to spicy to taste the sauce! And what the hell with the wet noodle dishes.. Definitely precooked and overdone.. I actually couldn't eat it. Just stop the madness. Such a shame...so close to home, but a 1 n done for all of us.

I really liked their food and restaurant atmosphere. The staff was nice and helped me selecting the dishes. They were not these kind of waiters that push you to pick more dishes. The food has a really nice presentation but more importantly it was very tasty. I highly recommend the ragú pasta. The restaurant design is really nice and has amazing vibes. It’s a cool place for only coming for a glass of wine or have a full dinner. I’ll come back !
