Had my daughters baby shower this past weekend, and Caloroso did an amazing job! The food was on point, and everyone raved about how good it was....the wait staff and bartender was sooooo nice and helpful! Would definitely have another event here, awesome experience ?

Sitting here right now on the upper outdoor seating area. The atmosphere and building layout of this place is amazing, which upsets me because the menu, service, and food quality is terrible. Great spot for a drink but unfortunately that's it.Update 30 minutes later: I'm not coming back even for a drink.

I have eaten at this restaurant but this is my first takeout. We ordered half pepperoni and half chicken. I'm not complaining that it's not exactly half. But the chicken topping was added after the pizza was made with half pepperoni and half cheese as you can see in the picture. When I picked up to eat, all chicken fell off pizza because it was just spread over the top of already cooked and ready pizza. I was very disappointed ? ?

Great family friendly service. Always clean and they go out of their way for their customers/family. Lou always is smiling. Mat is always greeting patrons. Servers are awesome. Great food and drink. My favorite is calamari. With hot cherry peppers.

We had the most wonderful experience at Caloroso Eatery & Bar. Unbeknownst to me, my family planned a surprise birthday party and had it at Caloroso’s in early December. Because the weather was still good, the party took place in the Sky Terrace…the space was very inviting and large enough to accommodate the 33 of us! Ashley and others of the Caloroso team made sure that no one went thirsty or hungry! The buffet of chicken parm, chicken marsala, pasta, salad, and more was totally delicious and plentiful! The large screen in the room made it possible for all to see the birthday trivia game through which I relived lots of happy memories and milestones! I had no idea what was waiting for me when I walked up the stairs and went through the doors into the Sky Terrace…and I’ll never forget the SURPRISE experience! Thank you, family, and thank you Caloroso team for helping to make the day a cherished lifelong memory!!

Great staff, quality and quantity, and great specials.

Place was packed! Lighting is bright and seating is congested. Food Was not what I expected for high prices. Flavor Profiles either complete miss or overpowered in sauces. Plating was subpar and just not appealing for some dinner options. Salad seem very cheap, no croutons no carrots olives no cheese.. its Italian too? No capers just fast thrown together tiny portions.. garlic bread no spred flavor on bread .. single slice partial throw over toast grinder roll.. Parmigiano lack of sauce and cheese.. lots of pasta.. no eggplant or chicken. Mushroom pasta extremely cheese no mushroom forget the onions you could not even find them. It's was truly sticky and cakey sauce. At a loss for words first time there and had to tell you it's gonna be a last.. pizza was made ok.. ingredients did not match small portion pizza size super-sized sandwhich style toppings. It was packed so I guess this review is truly up to your preference.

I’ve been to Caloroso many times before and I’ve had private events there which have always been great. They have always been very accommodating and the food is always great. I ordered the valentines family package last night and the host was super friendly along with both bartenders. They brought my food right out and the host held the door for me. The food was amazing as always. Highly recommend!

Never a bad meal from there!! Great takeout specials, good atmosphere and nice people!
