I've been here a few times, but the latest was a disappointment. For the prices, I was expecting some Wows. It didn't happen. My rack of lamb was disappointing- cooked to a medium rather than a medium rare. I would have told the server, but she never came back to ask how our entrees were.

After hearing about this restaurant from a few friends, I decided to take my wife there for her Birthday. I was very disappointed. There was no flow with the service of food, it took over an hour to get out main course and when we did some dishes were cold. We complained and they made no attempt to redeem themselves. We then made the mistake of ordering desert and they were iffy at best. The cappacino was horrible. The wine was severly over priced and when we got the overall bill, it was clear that this place is not worth over 400 dollars for a table of six that included two children.

We have heard of this restaurant for years.but because it's rumoured to be VERY expensive and high end, we never dined there. WHAT A MISTAKE! The atmosphere is fabulous... you feel that you've just walked into Tuscany. The wine list is extensive... and the list of specials knocked our socks off! When we discovered we could split, or share, appetizers, pastas and main course, we were in heaven. Much more affordable than we ever thought. I have to say the service convinced us.... we should have come here years ago. The woman serving us was gracious, very professional, and so helpful.
We will be back.

This November I returned for the upteenth time since its opening. Again, we had an absolutely wonderful dining experience. Waiters coming to the table as if they read my mind coming to either serve the next course or asking if there is something I/we needed.
I have been sending friends and business associates here without ever fearing they'd have a disappointing course, let alone an entire meal.
Dining at Il Cenacola is a special occasion, not to be wasted by only going there on birthdays and holidays, but instead going there whenever you need a break from the mundane.

Went to il cennacola on oct. 20 2007 . Despite other poor reviews, I wanted to return to a once good restaurant. The food was good ,however , it came out with the speed of a Mc donald's window.After gently telling them to slow down (I wasn't going to the chair the next day), they continued to persist in ushering the table out the door.If it were the mistake of an ignorant waiter perhaps excusable,but not the person serving us. you see, it was the face on the wall as we entered....the owner. I travel to the area on business quite frequently and will make sure I don't return to embarrass any colleagues or clients.

Forget Cenacolo, they have lost what made then a great restaurant once. Go to Il Tessoro in Goshen. This is what fine Italian dining is all about!

We have gone to this fabulous touch of Italy a few times and have never been disappointed. We have brought others and sent others there and they all feel the same. 8 of us are going tonight too! The pasta is reminscent of Italy. Delicioso!
