We really enjoyed our meal. We all ordered something different and everything was delicious. Plus our waiter Tony was very friendly and gave us excellent service. I will recommend this restaurant to all my friends and family.
First I have to mention the beautiful 1920s style bar and restaurant. I had the Diorio veal dish which was tender and tasty. My fiend had a delicious bolognese dish which I'll try next time. Great friendly service too. I really enjoyed my meal and the atmosphere was like stepping back in time. Can't wait to dine there again
Diorio is a wonderful, old school steakhouse. The ambiance, food, and service is excellent. I have only been there a few times due to the distance from my home, but I want to go back soon when I am in the area. It is my understanding that they are temporarily closed for renovation. I hope they don't change too much because the old world charm was warm and inviting. My favorites are the shrimp cocktail, lobster bisque and the melt in your mouth filet mignon. Can't wait to return for yet another wonderful experience.
Great restaurant! The food is always delicious and perfectly prepared. The service is always good too. There are some new lunch specials and menu items and I enjoyed one yesterday. I had the blackened fresh yellowfin tuna sliced over a salad of lightly dressed arugula. It was wonderful!
Diorio never disappoints.

Lovely atmosphere, very European with dim, warm colors. It's truly pleasant just sitting here, admiring the fancy styling. The service was nothing to talk about. It was just average, but quick enough!
As for the food, it was good. Everyone loved their food, but I'm known to be unforgiving and overanalytical when it comes to cooking. I had pasta with clams and white wine sauce. The dish arrived hot right off the stove! But both my friends and I thought the sauce wasn't reduced enough, making it watery and slightly bland. The clams lacked a bit of flavor, but weren't overcooked which is nice. The food was still tasty - but not $28 tasty. It's not like it was a rush, but I guess mistakes happen even to the best chefs.
The best part was the dessert. I ordered the créme brulée (whatever the spelling is), and it was delicious. The crunchy, smoky caramelized sugar was something else, and went really well with the creamy stuff underneath.
I'd come here again in a few months, and I recommend you do too, you won't regret it.
Absolutely fabulous place, food and service. I ordered Escargot appetizer which was amazing, not too garlicky but just enough, then for dinner I had the ribeye topped with gorgonzola that was so tender and delicious I am still dreaming about it. For dessert I tried the white mousse cake with oreo crust. It was simply out of this world. It had a creamy smooth taste, not too sweet. Service was 5 star, that old school classic style that is so missed today. It's such a stunningly beautifully place you wont want to leave.
Two nights in a row! Soon followed by a third. I must love it. Perfect shrimp scampi.
Ribeye was a poor cut of meat beautifully prepared and the wait staff was perfect.

Loved it. Had the ravioli. A perfect dinner. Great staff. Really like the peppers served with a warm crusty roll.
Beautiful old-school decor of warm wood, brass, and mosaic tile floor.
We meet friends at Diorios 2 or 3 times a year and have always had a wonderful dinner experience. The physical surroundings are evocative of an earlier era with roomy booths and a tin ceiling, the wait staff is always welcoming, informative and well trained and the food has always been excellent. If you go, make sure you have the bananna banofie pie for dessert.
