Founded in 1960 by brothers Peppino and Federico Corneli, the restaurant continues to uphold the same authentic recipes passed down through generations. A true family business, it is now proudly run by the new generation — Nicola, Pina, and Alex Corneli, together with Chef Joe Nicodemo. Our homemade pasta, hand-crafted by Nonna Donna, remains the heart and soul of our cuisine. And of course, our pizza baked in an oven imported from Italy delivers that traditional taste we’re famous for.

What a beautiful girls night I had! Decor, Service, Music playing, FOOD, everything was just perfect! Definitely reccomend! Oh & the Sour Gina cocktail...10/10 !!!
The food is delicious ! Especially the pizza & pasta ! Good portions ! Love the open space beautiful decor I would just recommend that the music is a little loud a little difficult to have a conversation with your group ! Great staff !
Great spot to enjoy a solid pizza & generous portion of pasta. The appetizers were also quite good & the place has a lovely decor. The staff is friendly & attentive. I can understand why this place is quite busy.
Although the restaurant was too loud, had to scream for my family to hear my speak. The overall vibe was nice. Comfortable seats, nice tables, nice restaurant decorations.
The waiter was very nice & attentive.
The pizza is great! & I had the lamb shank..fall of the bone! Delicious.
It was our first time at this restaurant & we had high expectations. We heard so many good things about this place. But we were disappointed overall. Don't get me wrong: The ambience is fantastic. The restaurant is spacious & well lit & nicely decorated albeit quite noisy. The pasta portions were decent & the pasta was cooked just right & tasty. Their antipasto was a major letdown though. They charge over 20$ for just a few olives, two slices of cantaloupe melon, & a few slices of prosciutto & sopresata. They claim you could share this but it's only really enough for two people max, not for a group. Also, their cocktails were way too strong for our liking. The waitress, despite being friendly, seemed a little bit lost & did not check in often. Service was incredibly slow as well.. It was a busier day when we went so I can kind of understand, but I'd say we waited a good 30 minutes before the waitress came by to take only our drink orders!! I'd give this place another chance. I'd be curious to see what the dinner service is like.
Nous avons organisé une fête de depart pour une collègue très chère & un autre collègue a suggéré cet endroit pour célébrer l'événement.
C'était la première fois pour beaucoup d'entre nous.
& nous avons adoré l'endroit, très bonne ambiance, excellente nourriture, très belle décoration & personnel très gentil & serviable.
Nous avons été servis par John (enfin je crois que c'est son nom) mais j'ai encore une photo de lui 😜 . Merci pour votre gentillesse, votre charisme & pour avoir fait de notre soirée un moment privilégié.
Merci à l'équipe de cuisine pour la nourriture délicieuse, à la fille à l'entrée qui nous a accueillis. Je recommande cet endroit à 100% pour tout type de célébration.
El pan de entrada resultó satisfactorio. La pasta estuvo bien, aunque un poco salada. La porción del pasticho fue mínima y predominantemente salsa; su precio de casi $30 me pareció excesivo en relación con la cantidad servida. Sin embargo, lo que más deslució la experiencia fue la vestimenta del personal de servicio; la indumentaria inapropiada resta elegancia a la decoración y genera una primera impresión negativa al ingresar al restaurante.
J'ai aimé ma première expérience chez Corneli! Belle ambiance & beau décor! La soupe minestrone, la pizza margherita, le vin pinot grigio & la crème glacée à l'italienne c'était excellent! Merci à Jean pour son professionnalisme, sa gentillesse, sa bonne humeur & nous a offert un super bon service!
Nourriture excellente mais temps d'attente pour recevoir les plats vraiment long, & le restaurant avait moins de 12 clients.
Très très bruyant, musique trop forte & choix musical criard (les paroles les paroles de Dalida, etc). Musique lounge moins forte serait plus appropriée pour pouvoir discuter & s'entendre. & ça irait mieux avec le décor du restaurant plutôt moderne.
Le restaurant est entièrement refait à neuf, décor magnifique.
Il ne reste aucunes traces de l'ancien restaurant La Flamberie qui occupait ce local depuis 30 ans a entièrement disparu.
Service ok.
Les pâtes étaient vraiment fraîches & vraiment très bonnes. De même pour la pizza.
Nous retournerons probablement.

The decor is very nice, the atmosphere is great with some Italian music, the service is fast & excellent, but they also try to clean the table quickly, even if there is food on the plate, the waiter asks you if you are finished & the plate is full. As for the food, it is not the best in the town, but it is good & delicious, & the price is okay.
Nourriture excellente & service excellent, mais VRAIMENT trop bruyant. Je n'y retournerai PAS. & il manque de stationnement. Je crois que le propriétaire, avec la belle décoration & les sous qu'il a mis dans ce restaurant, devrait faire quelque chose pour atténuer le bruit.
Le restaurant est très beau, le décor est moderne, beaucoup de place assise. Les repas manquaient de goût,fade non assaisonner, bon sans plus. Par contre la pizza étais très bonne. Il y a une musique de fond mais le restaurant est très bruyant. On a attendue notre repas environ 45 minutes. Le service etais impeccable
