    This was truly one of the best meals we have ever had. I have never been blown away by a meal before. Every bite I took was better than the last. From the appetizers to the dessert this was definitely the best meal we have ever had. It made a customer for life and we will 100% be back

    We were greeted in the parking lot by a delicious aroma of Italian cuisine! The hostess and our waitress were very welcoming and attentive. The food was absolutely fantastic! We enjoyed the Antipasto, the Dolce Pera ( blood orange dressing was amazing) and Eggplant Parmesan ( my favourite dish). The portions were very generous, salad was fresh and entree hot. The atmosphere is warm and inviting. I will definitely return!

    The Valley Restaurant deserves 10 stars. As soon as we walked through the door we were welcomed warmly. The waitress was professional and friendly. The food was exquisite and presented very nicely. The ambiance was quaint.I would defintely recommend The Valley Rastaurant.

    First time to Valley and thought it was a charming. the Christmas decor reminded me of a cosy English cottage. The food was exceptional, the wine excellent and our party of four thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Yes, I would recommend it to friends and plan to take some friends there next week!

    We were a group of 4, all with different requests. The server was super accommodating. Price points were very reasonable for this scale of restaurant. My sister had scallops and mushroom risotto, and said it was the best she'd had. (And, she's a Maritmer!) Mom had scallops on polenta, devoured it. The Birthday Girl had the crab ravioli with tiger shrimp. She said she'll be back. My veal osso busso was good, but lacking in flavour. Next time I will try the limone veal. The restaurant was was busy, but the ambience was quiet.

    This was the first time that we had eaten at the Valley Restaurant and it will certainly not be the last time. The servers were friendly and knowledgeable, the decor was warm and lovely and the food was superb. I would not hesitate to recommend this restaurant and am already looking forward to going back for another fine meal.

    Very busy Sunday night. we had a 6.30 seating but had to wait 20 minutes. Tables for 4 were slow leaving, not much the restaurant can do when folks sit chatting after their meal. Kudos to the staff who brought us a complementary bruschetta appy because of our wait.. Food is always good as is the service. Portions are quite large so bring your appetite. It was one of our parties birthday and they brought us a sorbet with birthday greetings. Blood orange and was wonderful, I assume you could order as desert and it was perfect to share and top off our meals as we were to full for regular deserts.

    The food was excellent. However we had to wait almost 25 mins for out table to be ready, even though we had a reservation. This was difficult since the front lobby is small and was very crowded. We had an elderly person with us who uses a walker, which made it even more of a challenge. They did send us a free order of bruschetta to make up for the long wait.

    Our first time at Valley Restaurant and it exceeded my expectations. The ambiance is exquisite! Food was absolutely fantastic! The service was excellent. We ordered antipasto for a starter and the server gave us plenty of time to enjoy and rest our bellies before our main course. This Restaurant is the best! So authentically Italian.

    The homemade pasta is always a win and their balsamic is a hit. From the bread to start the meal to the apps and to our dinners we are never disappointed. I always get the Piatta Italiani as the lasgna, 1/2 order of chicken Parm and futtucine Alfredo as hits! With that mel I never have to choose!
