Great date night spot! We went on a Sunday with no reservation and were able to get outdoor seating right away. Nestled in a quiet neighborhood with music playing the ambiance was still great considering inside is a bit noisy. Our server Laura was a pro and so so nice. We ordered the bruschetta and a local IPA to start, followed by the picatta and paglia with ceasar salad and ended with a tiramisu to-go for desert. Portions were big and filling, everything cooked to perfection. Great price for real italian food!

Not sure where all the high ratings are from, I definitely did not have a 5 star experience. Arrived at 450pm I wasn't greeted for almost 10 minutes, the lady rudely told me they are booked until 8pm with reservations I "HAD" to sit at the bar if wanted to eat. There were roughly 5 or 6 open tables. Ordered the house special pizza. Very dry and hard crust, not much flavor and very skimpy on the cheese (in Wisconsin). Maybe it was an off night but it definitely was not worth the wait and bad food. Hard Pass

Wonderful Italian food in a quiet neighborhood setting. Tables outside if the weather permits and a super laid back vibe that made for an incredible meal. Everything we ordered from staples like carbonara and Bolognese, to the salmon on truffled cauliflower were absolutely top notch. Flavorful, fresh ingredients, hearty portions and all washed down with a wide choice of wine or cocktail. Highly recommend the Capone Manhattan! Staff were brilliant. Attentive and fun but not overbearing at all. Prices were fair. Parking was pretty easy, but is on street. Very enjoyable meal. Will definitely be back.

I love me some Tenuta's! Lol. I've been visiting this neighborhood Italian restaurant for years. The Carpaccio is the best I've ever had. The bread is amazing. The pizza is yummy. The Bistecca is to die for, but on my last visit, I tried the Chicken Marsala. It's hard to beat Sala's on Hampshire St. but, OMG, the Marsala was the very, very, best, EVER!!! I did switch out the mashed potatoes for spaghetti noodles w garlic butter and asked for extra Marsala sauce,(a must). Tenuta's is a charming little place tucked within the neighborhood. They offer a large selection of wines and cocktails and a substantial menu. They have a cute little outdoor patio for dining as well. Tenuta's is always busy, so a reservation is wise. They do have a nice size bar, but that's usually busy as well. The staff is friendly and service is always great. I've gone in by myself at times and never have I felt out of place. I just love Tenuta's. I know you will too. ♡

Tonight was our first time eating at Tenuta’s Italian Restaurant. WOW! The food was amazing! The service was great…. And the atmosphere was perfect. Everything thing we ordered was delicious! I had the lasagna…. It was one of the best I have ever eaten. The noodles were fresh. The sauce was delicious! And it was super cheesy…. Just like I like it. The pizza was incredible! We ate at outside tables on the sidewalk. Great atmosphere! We all gave Tenuta’s Italian Restaurant 5 stars! We will be back for sure! Highly recommended.
