Gluten free pasta for the win! Everything was delicious. My mock-tail was perfectly was very well balanced. Great femme bartender but I didn't catch her name.
The service is good, the food tastes ok. Outdoor seating is kind of windy and cold, they did turn on the heater after 7:30pm or a little bit after. The way they cook the spaghetti is right, not too hard not too soft
So unfortunately hurricane Milton derailed my vacation plans. I was slated to fly to Florida for a cruise to the Bahamas. I decided to have my own specialty dining experience so I ordered from Dino. My first course included a medley of veggies. All cooked differently but all delicious. Next course was Ragu with meatballs. This was exceptional. I ended my dinner with olive oil cake and loved it as well. I highly recommend this restaurant. I'll be ordering food from them again.
Overall the food and service was good. Ambiance is pretty dark so be ready for that. They had great specialty dishes that were available as well. The Zucchini fries were really good, a little salty but good. The carbonara was also solid, but nothing extraordinary either. Overall we all enjoyed our meals.
Came back here a second time for Vday and wow even better experience! Great service, yummy food, cute vibe and amazing basil gimlet and tiramisu omfg !!!!!
