Borgo

Congrats on winning a James Beard for your beverage service. It's a shame that our waiter didn't even ask us if we wanted a beverage when we had lunch yesterday. As judges for the Beards (not the restaurant category), we were underwhelmed by his service. Yes, we were offered and received sparkling water, but it customary to be asked if we would like a beverage in addition to water. It's really weird to be eating your appetizer and be told that your mains are coming out. Our waiter proceeds to bus part of the table and says he'll come back for the rest. Then, he comes back for the rest and the food doesn't come out. There was this 15 minute gap. Why was he rushing me? ”Wish I'd been there", was what our waiter said to my friend when she told him I was trying to get his attention regarding the undercooked potatoes on my tuna before is eaten the rest of the meal. The idea is to eat the entire dish together but he never looked in the direction of the table while we were eating our mains. We really wish he had been there too! SMH The room is lovely. The food is well presented. The arancini was the best dish. Crunchy, cheesy and nicely spicy from nduja. The vignarola was tasty. There was no hint of smoke in cherries on the mozzarella dish. The risotto with the flavorful short rib was completely bland. The waiter struggled to explain what made the lobster pasta special and maybe that's because it wasn't? I didn't taste it, but my co diner said the pasta let down the dish. I'm not sure why the manager came over to thank me for letting them know that the potatoes were undercooked since he followed with the chef didn't seem to agree and no one offered to bring me cooked potatoes after 1/3 of my meal went into the garbage. Weird service move. Two of us have had Borgo in our hit list for months, but we were disappointed to the point that we skipped dessert even though it was my birthday.

The space is beautiful and warm. The service was uneven, our waiter was fantastic but the guys pouring water and removing plates were weirdly aggressive. When filling water they were moving so fast they spilled several times, splashing our food and phone. And they kept trying to remove plates before we were done, it felt like they wanted us to hurry up and leave. The food is really solid to great. We loved the focaccia, arancini and lasagna. The fettuccini and chicken cacciatore were both super flavorful! Desserts were okay. Overall, Borgo was a really solid experience!

Gorgeous restaurant with food and service just as nice. A lovely birthday celebration. Wine selection is top notch, especially if you go off the beaten path. Whole roasted branzino was to die for but surprisingly the Buffalo Mozzarella with artichoke hearts and pine nuts was the best bite of the night and maybe best bite this year personally. Really exceptional all around.

Beautiful space and really large. The focaccia and crudo were good appetizers. The pastas were really great and enjoyed those the most. The rhubarb tart was extremely strong which I like because I love rhubarb. The two of us got 2 apps 2 pastas and one main. As well as a dessert. We were full but we could have probably gotten 1 more app to share. 1 more entree if you’re really hungry

We had the arancini, spring lettuce, ricotta ravioli, snapper, veal chop, roasted potatoes and rhubarb tart. The standouts were the tart ( a must!!!), veal chop and snapper. The rest was just ok, the ravioli was the biggest letdown (bland flavor, too al dente). Fantastic wines by the glass options, wonderful ambiance. Worth a try
