It was a real pleasure to be greeted by the owner, Mr. Ugur, when we arrived for our dinner reservation at Trellis. He was very cordial and suggested where we should sit, for our quiet, family dinner. We enjoyed delicious wines, soups, burrata, bread, duck, sole, salmon and tarimasu! Everything was delicious and one could tell that the bread was homemade! So good! Thanks to our server, Axel, who was most attentive and kept us smiling and happy throughout the dinner. His suggestions were spot on, and he kept our water glasses filled too! Perfect meal at Trellis, as usual! We will see you again soon. The Tall family.

Just went to a corporate event out on Trellis' outdoor patio and really enjoyed the setting! Very nice service and good food and drinks too! You might not notice this restaurant from the street but if you are planning an event where you want people to be able to relax and talk on a nice private patio setting, look into Trellis! They also have a pretty large indoor restaurant downstairs which I haven't tried. My 5 stars is for the ambience on their Trellis. - Libby

Trellis is a hidden gem. Food is consistently delicious...always tastes fresh and perfectly seasoned. They have the best carpaccio, also a fan of their lamb chops, fet prawns, and veal parmigiana. Staff is extremely friendly, very old school which makes for great ambiance! Check out their patio! Shout out to Gorge and Omar for always making me feel welcomed and being attentive.

Went here on a Friday night with my homie. Not too crowded and opted for upstairs outdoor seating. Pretty hot day but there was a slight breeze. Definitely get the Riesling (5/5) so refreshing and I opted for the Parxxx Sole Fillet, orzo was a bit on the salty side. Homie got the prawns and finished it all. Highly recommended for italian feast with a nice outdoor ambiance.

Very nice decor and feel. They have a great outdoor seating area on the roof. They have a full bar and the drinks are good. They do take reservations as well as OpenTable reservations.

Came here around 6:30 PM for dinner tonight. Not busy at all. Restaurant had plenty of open tables, hence getting pretty good, attentive service. Fancy atmosphere with well organized table settings and some pretty cool picture frames on the walls. Appetizers: the Calamari & the Bruschetta. Both tasted good. Nothing too specia thoughl. I would recommend the Bruschetta more only because I'm not a big calamari fan to be honest. My entree: Susan's Downfall pasta w/ added prawns (5 big pieces), no almond garnish, and I also ordered sauteed mushrooms on it too but they forgot to add it to the dish so they gave me a VERY generous amount on the side. The pasta entree itself was a really delicious, cheesy, herb-filled ravioli dish. However, the cheesy, gorgonzola sauce got a bit overwhelming overtime (all the ravioli pieces were drowned in the sauce). Lol, I started to try to move the raviolis and prawns to the side, away from the sauce. I also got to try a piece of my co-worker's Steak Au Poivre entree. The steak was cooked perfectly medium rare and just melted in my mouth. This dish comes with mashed potatoes and steamed broccoli & carrots. I would have to say that the sauce tasted too bitter for my palette (too much wine in sauce) so, if I had that dish to myself, I would've asked for SOS (sauce on side). Lastly, my dessert: Lillian Bertucci's Favorite (vanilla ice cream w/ warm raspberry sauce & whipped cream) garnished with a blueberry, mint leaf, and some kind of mini, French bread. A simple, yet very delicious dessert. I liked presentation.

Great place for good, authentic, home style Italian food. The food was delicious. We got bruschetta for the table and I got the Fettuccine Primavera paired with a Chianti. Really hit the spot. Great location as well.
