Farina Alto Pizzeria & Wine Bar

It is 2/20/20 and it is my first time dining here during the dinner rush. My first impression was based off a 1 star review I had read prior to arriving that had explained how the service, food, and price was outrageous. This review also included in it a very detailed run through of everything that was wrong with the clam linguine that he had ordered. So i decided to get exactly that. To my delight, it couldn’t have been further from the truth. I’m not saying that gentleman that made the 1 star review was wrong in that timing or circumstance but I would definitely make the gesture that everyone has a bad day in that case and it’s unfortunate he didn’t have the same experience I did. Our waiter Miles was always attentive to us knowing we had never been here before and never left my glass half empty. I also had the buffalo wings which were baked and fried to perfection with their own delicious signature sauce and Gorgonzola dipping sauce. I highly recommend this place to anyone that has the time. I will say however it does take a little bit more time than I had expected for everything to come out but it well worth the wait. I will most definitely be returning....anyone can cook...????

Jenny was our wonderful wait staff: attentive to our needs, friendly, and efficient. We wanted for nothing while we were in the restaurant. We ordered 3 pizzas, 2 salads, and 2 drinks/2 waters. The bill was pricey, due to gluten crusts, but it was worth it. We had leftovers, and enjoyed them the next day, since Jenny packed them up expertly. We’ve been here before & we’ll be back in 2020!

Farina Alto is an interesting locale. Tucked off the street with tight parking, it has the aire of a supremely high class establishment. With a bar and a relatively lavish menu of pasta, pizza and associated dishes it prices itself as such. Unfortunately, in my handful of trips here, it has never quite lived up to expectations. The pizza is good but never anything mind blowing. And more often than not, I'm left expecting something more flavorful and end up being let down. Simply; the food isn't bad but it doesn't quite live up to the expectations.
