My wife and I had a really lovely time here on our first Valentine's day as a married couple! First they brought us 2 glasses of Prosecco on the house for every table! I really appreciated that gesture! The the Pink Rose was a delicious cocktail with an ice rose in the glass (also a very nice touch) and the food was as delicious as expected! We had the eggplant meatballs appetizer which I always recommend for new guests. I had the short rib papardelle and that was so rich and delicious that I ate all the sauce on the plate after! My wife fettucini bolognese and she loved that as well. The strawberry crepe and afogatto for dessert finished things off perfectly. Definitely come here but dont wait for a special occasion because every time you come here it feels like a special occasion!

First timer and definitely recommend. Small and cute little restaurant. Made a reservation for a table but ended up having our meal at the bar. We shared the polpo alla luciana appetizer and papardelle con ragu' di vitello pasta dish. Good size portions but if you're overly hungry I wouldn't suggest. Ordered an anniversary special espresso martini which was a perfect starter. With our pasta we ordered a Malbec based on the bartenders suggestion, it was ok probably wouldn't order it again.

Uva is so good. The decor gives off rustic Italian wine bar vibes and makes you feel right at home. They always have unique specials every week. All the servers are extremely nice - shoutout to Fernando who made me a delicious ginger cocktail last time I came in. My favorite food items are: the diavola pizza, the mascalzone pizza, the papardelle con ragu di vitello, and the spaghetti al pomodorino (served tableside in a cheese wheel). All the food here is delicious, you really can't go wrong. Highly recommend.

What a great evening and experience I had, celebrating with friends for many reasons. At their suggestion, we landed here. My impression upon entering was an upbeat venue with lot of camaraderie among the guests, We were seated promptly and provided the menu followed by water. There were many appetizers and main corse meals to choose from including pizza, meat, fish pasta chicken and pork. We had the calamari which was the best I've ever had, hands down. Freshly cooked lightly breaded. Also the grilled artichokes, which were delicious, though we still haven't mastered the proper way to eat them. The wine sauce was scrumptious! For our entree we ordered the tomahawk steak. They brought it to the table ahead of cooking it to get us to ok the cut. Classy! Ordered medium rare, it was delicious and enough for 3 people. Two of us shared it and had the bone to go for my dog. We also ordered the lobster Risotto which my girlfriend said it was the best she's had. We had a great time and the service was stellar. I definitely recommend it and will surely return.
