Truly excellent Italian cuisine - pastas and filet mignon perfection. Local gem.

Pure delight! As we were celebrating a birthday, our server recommended the tasting menu chosen by the chef. The result: an experience right out of "Babette's Feast!" Superb!

Went for the first time last night to celebrate my birthday and they were amazing to us! Very attentive server and the food came out at the perfect time. The food tasted amazing and the presentation was beautiful. Our drinks tasted great as well! Thank you again, I can't wait to come back!

I had the pleasure of enjoying a dinner for two with my partner at home for my 50th birthday. We shared CALAMARI RIPIENI, CACIO E PEPE, RISOTTO, CARRE D’AGNELLO and TIRAMISU for dessert. The food was so delicious and our evening felt so festive that at that moment I forgot all about the lockdown, and the fact that I could not celebrate with more of my family and friends. Thank you for making our small birthday party so memorable :)

Wow...what an evening. My partner treated me to a delicious date night at Orto and we couldn’t have been happier with the service and food. We enjoyed a modified tasting menu with 9 courses so we were able to try a little bit of everything off their menu which was all fantastic. It was a lot of food in a good way. Thank you to the chef and serving staff for such a great night! Next time when we return you’ll find us on their beautiful outdoor patio with a charcuterie board and a glass of wine :)Vanessa & Justin

it was very nice to finally get out for dinner ! And everything from the service to the food was excellent. We recommend you try this place if you haven't already !
We visited Orto Trattoria about a week after the winter covid lock down ended. We started with the appetizer, CALAMARI RIPIENI. Stuffed calamari in a san marzano tomato sauce. It was enjoyable but unfortunately was not reheated enough and part of it was cold. The mains were halibut as the fish of the day and FUNGHI RIPIENI. Roasted portabello mushroom layered with ricotta and taleggio, celery root. The fish was coated and pan fried and was a bit overdone. The flavor was lovely though. The portobello was also delicious, although very cheesy, a bit too much for me. The sevice was excellent and the decor is ok with large tables and comfortable chairs. Overall it was an enjoyable evening and the staff are doing a commendable job while covid challenges are a serious problem.
