We had a great dinner at Orzo! Food was fantastic, drinks were good and our server was super friendly an knowledgeable. My friend has alpha gal and Orzo put a lot of effort into making sure there was no contamination with her dishes. The duck fat potatoes were delicious, as was the salmon, which was cooked perfectly. Baguette appetizer is always great and was no exception this time. Also would like to add that after catching Orzo on an off night for a precious dining experience and leaving a review, Orzo’s owner reached out to me and offered a gift card. While certainly not expected, it was a really nice and appreciated gesture and we really enjoyed coming back and experience the top notch food that Orzo is known for. The owner personally made sure we were taken care of on our return dining, which again, was not expected but was really nice and it shows why Orzo has been on business for so long as the owner is definitely invested and wanting to ensure a great dining experience. Great spot for a date or a night out in Cville! Will definitely be back.

A Sunday night birthday dinner made memorable by the relaxed atmosphere and fellow diners on either side of our table who were also celebrating birthdays, which made for lively conversation and smiles all around. Our server, Melissa was wonderful. She was attentive and knowledgeable of the menu and a pleasure to talk with. Cocktails were excellent, appetizers of bruschetta arrived warm and for dinner, the Beef and Pork Bolognese was sublime as was the Flounder with toasted orzo pasta, white beans, Fra Diavolo red sauce with garlic & chili and fennel agrodolce was prepared perfectly. The Pork Loin Marsala with crushed potatoes with olive oil and Parmigiano, grilled broccoli, mushroom Marsala sauce was cooked perfectly, but Chef was a bit heavy-handed when adding salt to the marsala sauce and it would be better to go a bit lighter. All in all, it was a excellent experience and we are looking forward to our next visit!

This was a perfect date nite restaurant or dinner with friends. The food was delish, the atmosphere was comfortably mellow, the music was low key (perfect for talking to your table companions). The vibe for New Year’s Eve was quite relaxed.

We had a wonderful experience at Orzo from start to finish. We had 6 people in our party and divided our reservation into 4 and 2. With a phone call they were able to assist with a table for 6. This was so appreciated! We were greeted warmly and our server had excellent suggestions and answers. The various dishes were delicious, appetizers and mains. We were so impressed and highly recommend this as a fabulous dining experience! Thank you.

We enjoyed a business dinner for 9 people and had an fantastic experience. The atmosphere is great, the service is 1st class, and the food was excellant. They also had a great bar, albeit with limited seating, but looked like a great spot to hang and enjoy a nice meal. The Martini's are also very good. I look forward to eating here again. Appropriate for business, casual, and date nights.
