Always very satisfied when we go to Cafe Pesto. Today we got take out and it was amazing. Our favorite Italian restaurant for sure. Usually we sit on the patio by the water. It’s very relaxing. Great place.

First & foremost...CALLING ALL CELIACS this place is SAFE & Deliziosa!!
It's hard enough to find SAFE gluten-free food when you have celiac disease & a gluten allergy...lol but, to also have it taste so AMAZING, HOMEMADE & FRESH...well, that's the cherry on top!
I LOVE Cafe Pesto & have to say, after only one visit it IS my favorite Italian Restaurant (w/some fantastic authentic Portuguese options)
The food, GF Calamari Picatta & GF Chicken & Eggplant Parm, I highly recommend...they just need better GF Bread (it was extremely hard), however, the "bagna-cauda" type (Italian Salsa Verde) was to die for, just like great-gramma used to make!
The gluten eaters in the group raved about their dishes which were the Baked Stuffed Sole & House Paella.
We will be back, our server, Precious, was absolutely the BEST & we hope to see her again in future visits!

Had an issue with an Uber order that never showed up, the chef personally came and delivered the order himself with great care!
This place is a real gem! If I could rate it any higher, I would. The service is impeccable and the waiters/waitresses really know what they’re doing. All of the food is very well-seasoned, which is uncharacteristic of most American cuisine. The prices were great for food quality that can be compared to fine dining. The portions are also very generous.
I had a chocolate raspberry martini, and the bartender tailored it exactly to my liking. We also had the Calamari piccata, and it was delish. The paella is Portuguese style, and it was delectable and flavorful. It reminded us of our fond trip to Portugal. The baked stuffed sole was great too. The tortellini rose reminded me of a fine Italian restaurant I have been to in the past.
Wish we could have had dessert, but we were too stuffed! The specialty desserts are truly unique.

Everything I have ordered at this restaurant has been soooo tasty. They include salad and bread, which is almost unheard of today, as well as generous portions! This is my go-to Italian restaurant right now!
