We booked Trattoria 225 for a private event and they were amazing. Their food is delicious! We had the Roasted Beet Salad, Chicken Visuvio, Salmon Spinachi, Pasta Primavera, Risotto, apple crostada with gelato and tiramisu. Nancy and Savannah are spectacular! They were attentive and friendly. They are two of the best servers I’ve ever encountered! It was a memorable day! Thank you, Bill and Trattoria 225 staff.

We had a great experience. This is a great local gem. This place has a lot of room to spread out and keep your social distance. We had the fresh homemade personal pizzas. We recommend The Goat and the BLT Pizza. The Strawberry Walnut salad is a delight for your senses! It is also big enough to share. Service was attentive but not hovering.

Had an amazing time. Exceeded expectations. Service was excellent, food perfect. They were so sensitive to the fact we had to ask about ingredients of all the gluten free offerings, due to other foods we had to avoid. They even caught something I forgot to specify to be gluten free. The chocolate brownie gelato cake, drinks, mussels, portobello mushroom and pizza were delicious. Thank you for a great night out!

Went for dinner and Jack gave us absolutely wonderful service. We have a toddler and he was very accommodating, we even got to see the pizza oven. Pizza was tasty and the crust was nice and wheaty.

The pizza here is amazingly delicious! I got takeout on their 2/22 Tuesday for the first time and I will most definitely be back. What a great deal, I’m so glad to have found this place! I got the BLT pizza and the Goat.

I love the food and drinks here but most importantly our bartender Dave was phenomenal. He made the best espresso martini I’ve ever had and every single one of his recommendations were beyond amazing! I would come back just to sit with him behind bar! 10/10!
