Celeste is one of those places that makes a night out with friends memorable. You'll remember where you sat & what you ate because the experience leaves a mark. From the moment you walk in, you'll notice the beautiful decor, the perfect lighting, the open, clean kitchen & smiling staff. Our waiter was funny & attentive & made wonderful suggestions. We ordered a good portion of the menu between 5 of us so we could taste everything & not a single dish was less than delectable. We were fighting over the branzino tartare & we ordered 2! Even the wine was perfect. The owners were very present & ensured that every patron was satisfied & taken care of. The head chef, Michael, who we discovered from his adjoining restaurant, Amea, ensured that our dishes were everything we hoped for. Everything he makes is a guaranteed delight. We will absolutely be back many times over. I highly recommend this beautiful restaurant. Come hungry!

Had a great experience at Celeste. The decor & ambiance is beyond beautiful. I had an espresso martini to start & it was perfect. We shared several salads & appetizers & all was delicious. The star salad was the lobster one. Pastas & fish were also great. Will definitely return!!

Celeste is absolutely stunning. The design is flawless & you truly feel transported somewhere else the moment you walk in.

The service was incredible from start to finish. Every staff member was so warm, friendly, & genuinely knowledgeable about the menu. They gave excellent recommendations & made the whole experience feel relaxed & special.

The food was beyond delicious, incredibly fresh, high quality, & beautifully prepared. I especially appreciated the great gluten-free & vegan options. Such a gorgeous spot for a special night out, a celebratory dinner, or just a beautiful evening with friends. Can't wait to come back!
