Absolutely amazing experience! The food was delicious, but what truly made our visit unforgettable was the service. It was beyond exceptional-friendly, attentive, & genuinely welcoming from start to finish. The staff went above & beyond to make us feel taken care of. You can tell they truly care about their customers. We'll definitely be coming back & highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great food & outstanding service. 5 stars!

Wonderful, new (last Nov) restaurant. My wife & I visited last week & had a great time. The restaurant is just beautful & has a real Modern feel to it. Lots of light from the windows, cool ceilings & a nice bar area. Service was impeccable & the food was very good.

A manager came over after dinner to see if there was anything that we needed. 'Well, do you have tiramisu?' She replied no, but immediately told me they would make one for me in their bakery. 10 min later, an extremely classic, tasty tiramisu made it to our table. Merci! Just over the top.

Highly recommend reservations & by the time we left at 8pm, the place was absolutely packed.

Once once you enter the restaurant you get greeted by the really sweetest host ever. The restaurant is really nicely done it's gorgeous & the stock is also super nice & very sweet. They always make sure that everything is OK. The food was really delicious. I had the cannelloni pasta while my aunt had the mushroom pasta. We also took appetizers like calamari & the raw tuna. The calamari is really good same as the raw tuna & I really love the touch of sweetness that was inside. I'm not really a fan of cake but as dessert I took the chocolate cake & it was the most delicious chocolate cake I have ever tasted. I highly recommend this restaurant if you want a really nice time it's also kind of pricey, but the food makes up for it definitely will be coming back!

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!
