Better than the reviews
Friends of ours made a reservation at Padre Figlio.I had trepidations based on reviews I had read on Menupages.com.I usually trust the reviews I find here.This time though our experience was different than the majority of the reviews.The food was terrific,the service was very attentive and while pricey we were not disappointed with the value received.I would recommend Padre Figlio to friends.We were all very satisfied with our dinner and I know that my wife and I will be back again.

Cute atmosphere, good service, but not great food & is pricey for the quantity
Spaghetti & clams was very average & the lobster ravioli didn't taste fresh. the caesar salad was ok...the atmosphere is cozy & romantic though, and the service was good. quite pricey for the quantity you get.

Great neighborhood find!
Went there for dinner last Friday night for the first time. Excellent value on their prix fixe dinner. Extensive regular menu. The three of us enjoyed the food. Good service and not pushy.It was latin night and the music was delightful! Not too loud.

Not recommended
I just got back from a lunch date with a good friend. It was my first and last visit to this restaurant. What a disappointment! Despite the nice atmosphere and good service the food was not good. My ceasar salad was composed mainly of brown tinged lettuce, covered with a decent dressing. The chicken scarpetta, which the waiter said was his favorite dish consisted of 3 lumpy chicken pieces of rubbery texture,cold string beans and overdone potatoes. The panna cotta was totally tasteless. I complained to the waiter about the salad and was offered a free glass of wine. I left most of the food on the plate.

Very good but not great
My friend and I dined at Padre Figlio recently. The staff was very nice and the service prompt. I had a seafood salad which was excellent and the bass for dinner, also very good. I really enjoyed the meal. Unfortunately my friend did not have the same opinion. She did not like the crab cake (neither did I) and she was not overly delighted with the pasta and lobster. I did like the restaurant but I spent twice as much as I normally would at another restauant of the same calibre.

Very Dependable-Top Flight
We went there when they participated in voucher program. The steak was as good as any Steak House and the seafood was fresh and prepared perfectly. All the fresh pasta we had can't be beat, but stick with the half portion unless you want it as the main course. A bit pricey but well worth it , escpecially knowing you wont be RUSHED.

Amazing food, surprisingly not amazing service
The food is the reason to go! Every dish ppl ordered at our table was delicious. The special black linguine with lobster fra diavolo was some of the best pasta I have ever had. All the desserts were great as well. Though our waiter was knowledgeable about all the dishes and very helpful, I was surprised the service bc it wasnt what you would expect from such a nice establishment. As the sole woman in my lunch party, I was never served first or given the menu first. The main dishes also came out at different times. Not a big deal, but just surprising given the apparently calibre of this restaurant. But would definitely return for the food!
