"The waiter went out of his way to accommodate our needs. We were originally at a table where the person at the next table was sitting between us. We asked to move and he accomplished this with very little fanfare."

"Appetizer was salty, and took a very long time to make it to the table, even though we were one of a few tables when we ordered. Dinners swimming in sauce, and a pizza that we ordered was not made correctly. Server was fair, seen very little. Water glasses were kept full by other employees. Silverware picked up from table before done with meal."

"I have dined at Azzurro on several occasions. Service in the past has always been excellent. My most recent experience was disappointing. Our server was condescending and imperious and appeared really put out to have to serve us. Fortunately the bus boys and ancillary staff were able to bring us water when our glass was empty and silverware when we had none. (Of course we had to flag them down to get the water and the silverware)."

"Even with our reservation made well in advance for a non-busy time of the evening, we were placed at a back table next to where the servers hang out and the water pitcher station. It was very smoky smelling in the restaurant. I chose 2 specials. The arugula salad with goat cheese, diced tomato and olive oil was lackluster. It wasn't until I used the decorative orange slices that it had any interest. The appetizer special of 4 very large scallops wrapped in prosciutto was much larger than expected, but again was just okay in the taste department. A dinner companion said her lasagne was very good; extremely large portion."

"We return here often because management and staff take such good care of their customers. The food and service are always outstanding and the good care is just a valuable bonus."

"We were able to sit outside and it was great. We have eaten here before with a group and alone, each time the food and service have been wonderful. Recommend to friends and people new to the area all the time."

"I am a regular and have been for many years now. It's always a pleasure to visit an establishment that knows you and treats you like family. I refer my own friends and family because I know they will be taken care of and have a wonderful experience on each and every visit. Tonight, the mozzarella prosciutto was delicious and hit the spot for a quick dinner after work. Thanks Tom for taking great care of me ... I'm sure to be back soon!"

"Took my girlfriend there--I like places that are quiet so that we don't have to yell to hear each other. Azzurro had a great, quiet atmosphere, even on a Friday night. Excellent food and great service, I'll definitely be going back."

"Best place in town. Best service, waitstaff, delicious food. Mista and rigatoni pomadoro for him, Caesar salad and ravioli tartufo for me, + terrific wine list + wonderful waiter (Dean) = another perfect Saturday night at Azzurro. Can't wait for the patio to open!"

"Azzurro's has just the right balance of upscale dining that is inclusive of everyone from a family evening out, to a quick take-out pizza or an intimate dinner for two. Prices are such that they generally eliminate the younger crowd of college age kids or twenty-somethings. The bar can tend to get packed and noisy on Friday or Saturday night, but in general, it's consistent and quality food that you return for - always pay attention to the specials!"

"Eclectic menu, well prepared and appealingly served. Service is friendly. Attractively laid out. If anything, portions are too big. But that only means you know tonight what you're having for lunch tomorrow."

"We had two different veal dishes, and found them only to be adequate. They lacked zest, and both entrees were a bit tough. The salmon carpaccio salad was delicious. The wine selection was great, and the ambiance was a plus. I would recommend trying something other than the veal dishes, which we would do if we go back."

"We ate at Azzurro's for Valentine Day, the meals were very good meal, but they serve oversize plates, more than we could consume at that setting. The wine and the service was good. They treated us like they appreciated our business. We would go back on a special occasion."

"We had a guest in from Houston, TX. He enjoyed it and complimented us on the restaurant choice. Our planned party of 5 turned into a party of 6 and even arrived 1/2 hour early, but Azzurro's easily accommodated us. Azzurro's remains high on my list of recommended restaurants in Richmond."

"Excellent service, very good food and friendly and knowledgeable wait staff. We had a chance to spend some time in the small bar beforehand during which our party grew from 4 to 6. They were able to accommodate the increase in our reservations despite being very busy. We thoroughly enjoyed our evening there and will be back again."

"We went there to celebrate our anniversary and they couldn't have made it more romantic. We were sat at a corner table with little hearts sprinkled over the table cloth. Many of the servers came over to congratulate us. The service was fantastic. The food was delicious and we ended with a nice desert to share. We come here ever so often and we forget how good it is every time. We will be back soon!"

"Good food and potentially good ambience, however, the very loud noise level intrudes on the overall experience. I will probably return, once, hopefully for a quieter table, and will request the most private table possible, but if that is also loud, it is not a comfortable dining experience. It seems the noise problem was not our table but more a general comment, as the restaurant is small and crowded."
