celestino offers a consistently high-quality culinary experience. their food quality is remarkable good, and service is really great. all the people who work there seem to enjoy working in celestino. they serve truly authentic Italian dishes.
overall excellent, eating was great. three of us, not served a bad dish, and our server (sadly I don't have its name) has a passion for his craft and lives what he does. Just go. order everything, please!

Celestino’s never disappoints. Mario is great and always makes you feel welcome.
