“ Wow, what a great experience. Kristyna was an excellent server and answered all my questions. Started with a great cocktail. Then the Saltimbocca was amazing! And don't skip dessert. I had the Plum Panna Cotta and it was delicious. There are so many other dishes on the menu I want to come back for. Hope it's not too long till I return! ”
“ Kristyna was PHENOMENAL! The food was top tier delicious, and seemed like it was made by a chef who really cares. All of the details were so thoughtful. We had such a great experience. The Caesar salad, halibut, and Italian honey and pepperoni pizza were fantastic! ”
“ Atmosphere was excellent. Bartender did know how to make a Aperol Spritz which believe it or not is hard to find, not the drink but the correct way to make it. Food was ok... all dishes at the table of 6 were heavy on black pepper. Not indigenous of Italian cuisine. Bread was pitiful... A little pricey for pasta. We will definitely return to the roof top. Excellent views, great service. Giving a 5 star because everyone deserves a chance to improve. ”
“ Update: Top notch Italian fine dining. Ate at the bar this time. The swordfish was perfect, as was the Vanilla Pear Mule. The piano player was also great. First visit: Service was excellent, fixed price menu for the holidays was detectible and it cost less than I expected. Cocktails we're great on top of all that. I really liked the little touches like the sorbet palette cleanser and the dessert. Also, I was very comfortable dining alone, thanks to the atmosphere and staff. It's a short walk from the Banks and well worth a visit. ”
“ From the moment we walked into Subito, we knew we were in for something special. Paula welcomed us with such warmth and charm—it set the tone for an exceptional evening. Our server, Matthew, was outstanding. We never had to ask for a thing; he anticipated our needs with such grace and attentiveness, it felt effortless. The food? Simply unforgettable. I had the bolognese and nearly wept—rich, comforting, and bursting with flavor. The Brussels sprouts were out of this world—crisped to perfection with a depth that made them the best I’ve ever had. And I don’t say that lightly; at near 50, I’ve had my fair share of incredible meals, but this was truly next level. Subito is a gem. From service to plate, everything was flawless. We will absolutely be back. ”
“ After a visit to the Taft, we walked over to Subito for lunch. It’s located in Lytle Place Inn We dined in a glassed in area with lots of light and a nice view of the area outside. The staff was very attentive and professional. We both had a turkey sandwich gussied up with cheese and jam. The fries were really good. ”
