Located in North Park area, opens at 4pm. Went for happy hour, available Monday to Friday. Tried a few apps and dishes, but the one I will come back for is the parmesan wheel truffle pasta. It Sssoooo delicious. you can add protein like chicken or shrimp to the pasta dishes for an extra fee. One waiter/waitress staff who does everything from seating to serving to making the wheeled pasta so service can be a little slow. Went back for a second time around 5 and one waiter again. I'm not sure if more staff comes in later in the evening. Great service, but be patient and enjoy your food.

This was my first time at Truttle and I would aboustley go back, we went to celebrate our anniversary. I got the cheese wheel pasta and it was mind blowing how delicious it was I would definitely recommend. For dessert we got the tiramisu, I was hesitant at first but the lovely waitress, brought it out and It did not disappoint. I would most definitely get it again from there, I loved it so much so happy she brought us some.

They over booked and gave us a rickety table, we were there for an hour and they still didn't come to get our orders so we left and went to eat next door

Generally, reviews of Truffle looked excellent so we thought we’d try it. Here is my review as a self proclaimed experienced and qualified diner/ reviewer: I found the three small meatball appetizer at $17.00 to be well overpriced. My entree of Filet Mignon and whipped potatoes served on a COLD plate is so inexcusable! ( even if the food was very good, the cold plate was so unprofessional!,,,and our entree of Fettuccine prepared table side in the cheese wheel with a few shavings of truffle at $55.00 to be a rip off gouge! Yes it was good but let’s face it, all the ingredients on the plate cost a total of not more than $2.00!!! The waitress was very nice and received a 25% tip on the overpriced meal. ( I never penalize a waiter for the mistakes and blunders of chef or owner). In closing, if the entree plates were warmed, and the meatballs and cheese wheel pasta was realistically priced I would have become a regular patron. There are too many better Italian restaurants around to waste money at Truffle again.

Great ambiance, excellent service by the server Dario! The food is in a different level! We did the 5 course meal. From start to finish, the food was excellent. 10/10 recommend!

First time trying Truffle to spend time with my husband before his deployment. We just wanted to try something new and we had a 100/10 experience! We had Dario as our server and he was very attentive, polite and sweet. The ambience was perfect for a date night! We tried the Ultimate Truffle Experience. We recommend Truffle for the best Italian experience in North Park. Will definitely come back and bring some family and friends. The Burrata Caprese was amazing.

Cheese wheel pasta is legit. Everything we had was good. Would go back for sure. Service was awesome also.

Tried this place with my friend tonight and was surprised when we received our check. The ambiance in the restaurant was very nice and trendy and the service was good. We shared the truffle Caesar salad and each had our own pasta. The pasta was good. I noticed on the menu that you can add shaved truffle to your pasta so both my friend and I did. We had no idea the shavings would cost $20 each ($40 for a small amount of shaved truffle on top). Overall the food was good, but i wasn't blown away and I do think it was overpriced. I also think the price for shaved truffle should be on the menu or mentioned when asked. The truffle cost the same price as my entree.

I had a great dining experience at Truffle. This was my first time at this restaurant as well What I enjoyed about Truffle is the venue which includes an outdoor patio. My friend and I dined inside and I was amazed by the decor and design. Food and drinks were top notch. The happy hour menu + cheese wheel pasta were the highlight of our dinner. Ambiance was quiet although we had dinner when there were no guests. Overall a 10/10 experience.

Took my girlfriend here for her birthday. We had a couple appetizers and salad before ordering some entrees. Every single item we ordered was nothing short of perfection. Amazing flavors. Our server, Stefano/Stephano, was very polite and very accommodating. He answered all of our questions and gave us some very good recommendations. 10/10 will be back.
