RACHEL Sello's Mgr welcomed me with smile and great attitude. A 5.0 plus restaurant; huge portions of homemade Italian dishes only your grandmother would come close to replicating. Bar is in a separate closed off area. Great for Family Friendly customers. Still tables inn bar area plus some chairs and couches for relaxation. Owners pictures proudly hanging near front door Please go. Try the hand cut Calamari Rich Sachs Retired Red Lobster.

Melissa was a wonderful waitress and remembered my family from the last time we were here months ago. The food, as always, was so, so good and I loved being able to watch as pizzas went in and out of the wood fire oven.

The food is awesome. Apps are basically a meal. We got the calamari it was huge. The house special crab and prosciutto was huge and awesome. We had one of the specials for the week, scallop and shrimp and angel hair pasta and split it bc the apps are so huge. Everything Was awesome!!! We got dessert to go bc we were sure it would be amazing but didn't have room for it but knew we would want it later. Took some pics so you'll see portion sizes. Omg. We had early reservations for 5 but I think we must have been seated in a weird spot bc it took almost 20 mins for someone to notice us. If the food wasn't so good that would have been reflected in the rating.

This was our first visit to Sellos. Wish we had come sooner. Everything was top notch. Food was excellent. No skimping on the seafood in the bisque or the seafood pasta that I had. All the restaurant staff were friendly, helpful and professional. The restaurant was lively but not too loud to have a conversation. Would highly recommend this place based on our first visit. We'll be back!

Overall, the food was amazing. Prices nowadays just are what they are, so I find it hard to complain about things you are aware of before finalizing an order — but especially at a place as elegant as this, with quality beyond most other choices around. It was just over 120 for three meals: the Fiocchi Vodka, Salmon Tuscano, and an amazing Filetto di Manzo. Honestly, the prices seem pretty fair We ordered it to-go, and I think I was confused for a Doordash driver because I was asked to pick the order up around back, which had me wandering into the back of the kitchen So after the adventure I came back to the front and explained, to which the overtly nice hostess brought my food out for me. It smelled great, tasted great, and my fiancee and I cannot wait to have leftovers tomorrow. I wish we had been more in the mood to eat there, because it was a beautiful little environment. The pizza oven burning in the back is a nice touch with the dim lights and upscale (for the area) ambiance. Highly recommend, and we will definitely be back to dine in!
