Fresh, flavorful Italian food in a cozy, nostalgic atmosphere. The Polenta appetizer was yummy, a dish made up of baked polenta with sprinkled cheese and a side of marinara sauce. Great way to warm up to the main courses which hit the spot. My ravioli al forno was outstanding - generous portions of cheese/spinach ravioli topped with butter and mozzarella, baked to perfection. The cheese was bubbling and was not too heavy, yet still had the texture and taste I was looking for. I could eat it everyday. The service was attentive and the owner walks around and personally checks in on you, which was pleasant and made us feel valued. No wonder this charming place has been around for almost 100 years - it’s a generational sensation for the taste buds.

Amazing experience, warm welcoming and friendly service. The small plates are perfect for the single dinner or table that want to sample a bit of everything and are a really great bang for the buck. The wine and alcohol list is impressive and expansive, covering pretty much anything ever bottled! I really enjoyed my shrimp scampi over house made pasta and char grill sausage and marinaded peppers. Even the warm loafs of fresh baked bread they brought out were delicious.

I simply wanted to say what an enjoyable experience I had at Del Rio. Initially entering the woman hostess (who later discovered was the owner) was so kind and welcoming, we chose to sit at the bar as we were only there for drinks, the bartender extremely friendly as well, extremely knowledgeable regarding the drink selection and patient (as I am usually undecided haha). Great wine recommendation.. The evening concluded with an amazing conversation with the owner Bill, learning the lineage/family history behind the restaurant. Overall, such a welcoming, and friendly experience -Rose
