    Valerio's is one of two favorite restaurants in Little Italy. They always have three fish specials, and three meat specials. Branzino and cioppino are two of my favorite dishes there, my husband loves their chicken dishes, my daughters the pasta, but you really can't go wrong. Their potatoes are succulent, their salads and well thought out, their tiramisu the best in Little Italy.

    Excellent food- we had Linguine alle Vongole and the Scaloppine ai Funghi. Caprese Salad also excellent which we split. Amanda, our server, did an efficient job and very thorough. FYI There is an $18 charge for valet parking-no problem with that except it wasn’t listed or mentioned anywhere.

    First time at Valerio's at the recommendation of my Italian barber. Excellent service, wide variety of specials in addition to the regular menu, expansive wine list and great ambiance. Excellent sized portions left us feeling satisfied. Definitely will return in the future.

    Valerio’s never disappoints! Warm smiles and tremendous service from the second you enter. Great drinks and delicious apps and entrees. Menu has wide variety; and they offered 6 entree specials. Osso bucco was fantastic. Can’t wait to get back

    It was okay. Cream sauce on the veal was delicious but pasta wasn’t anything special. Good wine but food was just meh. Server had a thick accent so you could barely understand him. 2nd time there, will try elsewhere next time in Little Italy.
