Certo was great. Making a reservation on tableagent is easy and convenient. The owners are very nice and welcoming. Our waiter was also very good and personable. The food was cooked to perfection. Try the chicken toscano. Delicious!! Desserts are also very good and many options. The service from the waiter and waitresses was great.

We went for a Miami Spice Brunch and everything was delicious and plentiful; service was great as well. I would recommend this restaurant to friends and family on Miami Spice or otherwise. It's a neighborhood Italian restaurant that is one notch towards fancy without being over the top.

The food is fresh, well prepared with a nice, clean presentation. Everything on the menu is tempting (must order the pistachio home-made ice cream, to die for). The service is over the top with attention to every small detail. Everyone is pleasant and they make you feel like royalty. The atmosphere is laid back and cozy. This is a neighborhood restaurant, yet it competes with the best anywhere else. It’s a bit pricey, but worth it because you get it in quality. A gem. We recommend it and will definitely return. Kudos!

I have been to Certo several times. My experiences were always good, but this Saturday the food was outstanding! Our group tried the papardelle, short rib ravioli, spinach cannelloni and fiocchi gorgonzola. Everything was excellent! Our Italian server was really friendly and quick (we forgot to ask her name). We will certainly be back!

The service was excellent, the staff was very attentive and kind. The food was okay, not bad but not great. I have the cacio e Pepe with truffle and was very disappointed because it had no truffle flavor. My husband had the ribeye which had decent flavor but he ordered it rare and it came medium. The octopus appetizer and pear raviolis were out favorite dishes of the night.
