    Service was very poor. Waited 30 min for 2 dinners to be served. Waitress kept coming over saying I am sorry it will be here soon. Then she said she told her manager. Then came back again and said I am sorry, I kept asking what was the problem and she shrugged her shoulders. Bronzino was very good and the risotto with shrimp and asparagus was very tasty. When she brought the check she said please write a review and maybe someone will wake up. Offered no compensation, no after dinner drink, desert, just gave us the check.

    The appetizer special, fried zucchini blossoms, was terrible. Heavily breaded, so it was impossible to taste the blossoms. I gave up after the first piece. When we complained to the waitress, she said "I don't know, I've never eaten it." Not very responsive.

    Food was fantastic, Ambiance was great as well. Service was so-so. Took 15 minutes to get the wine order and another 15 min to get the wine. May just have been this particular waiter, I’m not sure. When we asked to have the AC tuned down the staff did that immediately. I’m not going out of my way to make another reservation but I also won’t turn down a visit if someone else books.

    I hardly ever go out for Italian food when we dine out, because whatever I end up ordering never tastes substantially better than what I can do at home - that is most decidedly NOT the case with Limoncello! The food was superb, as was the service - we sat outside, so I can't comment on the ambiance indoors, but outside it is pretty noisy being on Talbot Street, with trucks, cars, etc. But if the weather is nice - which it was - it's worth it to do some sidewalk dining. Limoncello is a excellent, I doubt very seriously you could have a bad experience dining there.
