    I’ve never had a bad experience here! Their fish Friday specials are always the perfect combination of flavor to really do the fresh catch justice.

    We were here in May and it was not a great experience and I reviewed it on this platform. Literally 24 hours later, the manager, Jonathan, was calling me to apologize and asking us to come back and let them do better. We came back tonight and Jonathan and his team went above and beyond to make sure we had the experience everyone had told us about. It was nothing short of amazing. The wait staff (Michael is THE BEST), the food, the live music, the ambiance was just incredible. Thank you Jonathan for a great night. We will definitely be back. 💗

    I found this restaurant on a search of OpenTable. I knew nothing about it. What a wonderful surprise. I recently had the pleasure of dining at Volare, and I must say, it was an extraordinary experience that exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with the warm and welcoming atmosphere that is reminiscent of the finest Italian restaurants in the Northeast US. The food was nothing short of spectacular. Each dish was a masterpiece, bursting with authentic flavors and made with the freshest ingredients. The pasta was perfectly al dente, and the sauces were rich and flavorful. It was clear that the chefs put their heart and soul into every dish. But what truly set this restaurant apart was the impeccable service. The staff was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about providing an exceptional dining experience. They went above and beyond to ensure that every need was met, and their attention to detail was unparalleled. It was a level of service that is rarely found outside of the Northeast US, and it made the entire evening truly special. In summary, Volare is a gem that offers not only incredible food but also outstanding service. Whether you're a local or just passing through, this is a dining experience that you don't want to miss. I can't wait to return and enjoy another unforgettable meal.

    The food was excellent and was served quickly. Our waiter was wonderful and brought out a delicious dessert for my husband’s birthday with a candle in it. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a nice Italian restaurant. Live music was a bonus.
