Took my mom here for restaurant week since we were craving some comfort italian food. The lunch menu looked fantastic as well and we will be back. The chicken marsalla and short rib parpadelle hit the spot. Finished off with Tiramisu for a delicious finish.

Very bummed. I got mine via delivery so I can't really rate the service. I want to state for the record: I have to do delivery for food. I have several disabilities which prevent me from driving and I am also immune compromised. I should be able to get at least the same quality of food as a patron who can actually go into the restaurant. I'd love to be able to dine in like I used to be able to. Unfortunately, I don’t have the ability to enjoy that luxury now. Meatball appetizer, I got 2 small ones drowning in sauce with 2 thin pieces of bread. Caesar Salad: I got very, very pale romaine lettuce and croutons that were obviously out of a package. There was zero cheese on it. I ordered a steak: good flavor but very overcooked to the point that it's grey. It looks like I just got the end of various steaks. The mushroom risotto is actually pretty tasty. This was not a cheap meal and I rarely treat myself, I am very disappointed.

Cute cat themed restaurant. Great drinks, great food. The servers were friendly both times we ate here over our four day stay at the hotel. We could have easily ate here every night and been satisfied.

Tried Gattara for the first time on Saturday evening and the food was really good! The star of the show was the cacio e pepe. The salad was nice and refreshing, though maybe needed slightly more dressing. And the bolognese was good too but not the best I’ve ever had. While the restaurant has a pretty interior, the super bright overhead canned lights create a less-appealing atmosphere. The lights definitely need dimmed. Overall we had a good experience.
