Had an amazing experience here! Started with the beetroot salad which was perfectly complimented by the crunchy kale in it. For the main course it was the wild mushroom fettuccine which was really light, not over the top perfectly cooked! My friend had the bone marrow appetizer and loved it too. For dessert we had the pistachio cream cake, which was unbelievably light, and the exact amount of sweet. Would love to visit again, special thanks to the Bartender who helped us in selecting dishes. Kudos for the quick service and seating!

An overall great experience. The menu isn’t complicated and the prices are fair. I had the gnocchi and it was wonderful. I’d definitely visit again when I want some simple Italian dishes in a nice warm atmosphere.

My friend and I brought our mothers for dinner and Anna Marie was a gem. She was patient, kind, and an enjoyable personality. She definitely raised the bar in terms of service and we would love to visit with her again.

THE SHORT: Pristine: beautiful and very clean. Great service- from arrival to departure. Server Brandon and Manager Christine were amazing. Incredible Food: everything we ate was great- so was everything we drank! Impeccable experience, Highly Recommend THE DETAILS We came here Tuesday, Aug 24th to celebrate our anniversary. We had to scramble and made the reservation a little last minute as our original plan (reservation at Capital Grille) fell through- the restaurant was rented in whole and we got bounced. Upon arrival, we were greeted by an incredibly friendly young lady (Christine) who had clearly gone to great lengths to make the night extra special. There were flowers at our table and also a card signed by the whole staff working that night. I would have been impressed in any circumstance, but having made the reservation last minute, It was that much more remarkable. Our server, Brandon was truly top notch! He gave us plenty of attention without being interruptive and was a ninja with water and drink refills. He was knowledgable about the menu and was able to give us great recommendations. The food was SO GOOD! I am a chef, and in addition to my husband and I, another chef lives at our house. We eat well- and I am generally difficult to impress- this was a truly exceptional food experience. The meatballs were easily the best I’ve ever had. We also ordered the Burrata which was simple and paired really well the with fruit mostarda it came with. We shared a kale salad (which was huge)- Im not always a fan of kale but this salad was well prepared and the perfect precursor to our delicious entrees. My husband had the risotto- which was easily as good as mine (and I make a stellar risotto) and which enjoyed and finished (he doesn’t usually clean his plate...but we did clean EVERY plate here! I had the filet, ordered rare. It came cooked to perfection and was accompanied by 6- SIX cipollini onions- if you have ever had to peel one (I have), you understand why I was impressed. Sadly, they had run out of cannoli for dessert, but they did present us with a tiramisu. Im not a dessert person but I had a bit and it was definitely delicious! My husband had the old fashioned (w/ Rye) and it was great. I had a gin drink (the Zippa) and it was also really delicious. We also polished off a bottle of bubbles. I would recommend this spot to anyone looking for a high quality dining experience. In the end, we were thrilled Capital Grille cancelled our reservation because I am positive our experience wouldn’t have measured up to the one we had here at Il Modo.

We were staying at the Kimpton Harper and decided to try their restaurant downstairs. At about 6:45pm on a Friday, we were able to make a 7:30 pm reservation for that night, but we showed up and received a table by 7. The service was knowledgeable and friendly. We also went back the next morning for breakfast and had another great experience.
