Pallucci - great place for a party
We enjoyed a wonderful dinner party at Pallucci in September 2009. The dinner was in celebration of my nephew’s christening. Fourteen people attended, and the party was held in Pallucci’s party room on the second floor. Pallucci was a perfect venue – very comfortable yet still stylish. The food was delicious – creative (and plentiful) hors d’oeuvres and appetizers and excellent main courses. (Most guests enjoyed the delicious beef tenderloin…) The service was also exceptional – very attentive. It was great dealing with Neil and Michelle (the owners) in planning the event. They were very welcoming for the first phone call. I don’t hesitate to recommend Pallucci for parties and look forward to dining there soon.

Pallucci ~ Two thumbs up!
My review is not just for the restaurant, but for an entire experience that my wife and I had when we decided to have the reception for our wedding at Pallucci.
First: The Restaurant
Food is excellent, creative, and fun at Pallucci. While the wine selection is small, it's hand picked by an in-house Sommelier. Pallucci's service is outstanding and the atmosphere is both aesthetically pleasing and inviting.
My wife raved about the food, the wine and the service. She is demanding, so this speaks volumes!
Second : The Reception
This is the real reason I'm writing this review because of the absolutely amazing experience that my wife and I had using the private dining room at Pallucci as a reception for our wedding. I can't speak highly enough about how smoothly the whole process from start to finish went. Delicious food, beautiful modern settings, and fantastic service were all delivered as promised. But the highlight for me was working with owner Chef Neil Siomra. His impeccable professionalism from the first meeting to the event itself was stellar. Neil is not just an amazing chef, but an extremely congenial person. Both he, and his lovely wife and co-owner Michelle met with us multiple times long before the wedding, maintained contact with us up until the reception, discussed with us the different options, gave us samples of food and wine, and was incredibly responsive to our desires and needs.
The price was very reasonable considering the all-around excellence.
The entire staff at Pallucci was friendly, helpful, and unpretentious. If you have any sort of event that you would like to plan for 30-50 people, this venue is ideal. The food was just as outstanding for 50 people as it was during our other experience at Pallucci.
Final word: Book your reservations today
So for an evening out or for a larger party, I recommend Pallucci enthusiastically.
