Excellent food and service! Laura went above and beyond to make sure our group was well taken care of on our last minute reservation.

Unreal. The most authentic and best Italian in west Michigan. Service is incredible and the owner will come by your table to make sure everything is great! Amazing wine selection.

Loved the family and wedding pictures in the entryway. Beautiful wine cellar. Comfortable setting for a conference. The salad and dessert were perfect. A little salty on the entree. Would recommend.

The restaurant seems like an afterthought for this event venue. Stopped in for cocktails on a Saturday night and my guest and I were completely ignored by wait staff. Went to bar and completely ignored. Overheard employees complaining about understaffing for a wedding event; bartender called in etc., etc... So, if the facility is understaffed for a planned event, close the dining room. It's easier to close the dining room than alienate customers. We walked out after 20 minutes served nothing but STAFF DRAMA.

Well, if first impressions are important, this place sure blew it tonight (2/17). Had a reservation for 6:45pm on a Sat night. Wanted to hear the jazz band. Walked in to find 12 people standing and waiting at the hostess stand with no one around. Stood and waited for quite awhile. Finally, a younger guy came out and very loudly and rudely shouted that it would be at least a 30 min wait. I was about to ask about my reservation when another party mentioned they had a reservation as well. The rude and angry employee cut them off and said, "Our servers are swamped! It's a 30 min wait EVEN IF YOU HAVE A RESERVATION!" So we looked into the dining room where the band was set up. There was a table for 2 right there with a reserved sign on it. Probably my table. But, we thought maybe we'll just sit at the bar since they were busy. So I again approached the hostess stand and asked a young lady if we could sit at the bar. She told me no, that she was instructed to not allow people to sit at the bar. Soooo... Not sure what the point is in making a reservation if a restaurant won't honor it. Not cool.

The staff was extremely unprofessional!!! Had a reservation at 7! Didn’t get my table till 8pm! We waited half hour at the front before someone came to see us! It took the server 45 min to take the orders! He forgot we were there if we didn’t call for him to come!! It doesn’t seem they care at all! It ruined our night!!

Valentines Day Ruined! Don't plan any special dinners here becuase they don't know how to follow through on reservations.We walked in 10 mins before our reservation to see a line winding through the dining area of everyone they had overbooked for Valentines dinner.25 mins after our reservation time, still waiting in line, some manager comes out to tell us its going to be 30 more minutes before they can seat us becuase they don't know how their reservation system works.Rude, Non Communicative and Unproffesional way to run a resturaunt. You would think an Italian resturaunt would be able to handle ValentinesDay. .

Made a reservation for Valentines Day, but upon arrival we were told they were double booked because they don't use the service any longer. There was a line through the building waiting for a host. We did not get a table.

Had such an amazing experience with Notos last night! Will forever be a spot I’ll go. Owner Tony is so authentic and down to earth. Had a great visit with him. Him and his staff are most hospitable! Can’t wait to make more memories here with the Notos family. They have my business and support for life ❤️ ~David J Sparks~ (Top rated Food and Beverage Expert)

My husband and I go on a date night the first Friday of the month to a new place. This was our worst dinner so far. There were maybe 6-7 tables there at 6pm on a Friday night which makes sense. My husbands vegetables were so hard he couldn't eat them. His potatoes were cold. His salmon was barely warm. I had chicken picatta which had zero flavor. Barely warm. I tried the soup but didn’t order because it wasn’t hot.The bill was 86 bucks and I’ve had better food at Olive Garden, Culver’s and even subway. Very disappointed.Now I know why they weren’t busy.

Sat in the Jazz Bar on a Saturday night. The service was split between the bartender and another server. Friendly and attentive, yet not too knowledgeable regarding the wine selection or a couple of menu options. Great vibes in the lounge and an overall good time was had. Will definitely be back.

The food is heavy and not that good. There was music and a fun family vibe. I will not return.

Noto's is our favorite restaurant and always provides great selections of Appetizers, entrees and desserts. And of course don't overlook their vast wine options as well that can meet everyone's preference. Great food that everyone enjoys for a nice dinner. Excellent job once again!
