I had hoped Noto's would stick out as a notable place for a well-traveled friend and it far exceeded my wishes. The wine list was far larger than we could've understood for a short dinner so the server suggested something that was delightful. Our pace was slow and relaxed and the family came to ensure every thing was good a couple times and didn't so much as hint toward our time we had been there. It seemed after a notable dinner and dessert it couldn't be any better then we toured the incredible cellar. This was truly the place to bring a distinguished guest and what an amazing impression they had when we left.

You folks are special! When my wife casually mentioned we were celbrarting our 60th wedding anniversary, she assumed it was merely "light conversation chatter". But, it turned out to be a super special evening, not just an anniversary celebration. I'm 83, and my wife is 81, and neither of us can recall such special attention in a restaurant such as your staff and each of your brothers extended.

A special thanks to Tom for his personal tour and comments. This was quite a culmination to a special event evening. Noto's will not be forgotten, both for the food and treatment.

Dear Noto's Management & Staff,

I would like to personally thank you for the most outstanding dining experience I have ever had. I cannot thank you enough for having such a great balance of professionalism, knowledge, service and exceptional products. My date and I had the luxury of having Aaron as our waiter this last Friday night, who provided us with not only great service, but also went above and beyond to accommodate our requests. On top of getting phenomenal food and wine in a great atmosphere, we were given a complete tour of the facility, got to meet the executive chef and were able to sit back and relax in the bar area while listening to the live music and eating dessert. Your facility and staff are next to none and I will recommend Noto's to anyone I can that is looking for a night they will never forget.

Best Regards,
Darrin

Please be advised that kudos are extended to your establishment for the extraordinary service that was bestowed upon me and my three colleagues during our visit this past weekend.  In particular, the food at Noto's was scrumptious and the owner's hospitality, as well as the entire crew on staff that night, has set the bar for the entire east coast.

We will unquestionably patronage your establishment in the future and will highly recommend our business colleagues, whenever in the Grand Rapids area, to access your facility if they want to be treated like celebrities.  Again, kudos for the ambiance and unsurpassed survice.

Whenever I travel I always try and have at least one meal at an Italian restaurant. My visit to Noto's was an exceptional experience and I will be sure to stop by on my next visit to Grand Rapids.

We celebrated my Mom's 80th birthday with you last week.  I cannot thank you enough for making the evening so wonderful!  The food was delicious and the service was impeccable!  My Mom is still raving about the beautiful birthday cake.  Thank you so much for making this celebration so special.

This was our first visit to Noto's.  The food was fantastic.  The wine list was amazing and our server did a good job of pairing an appropriate wine with our meals.  Overall an excellent restaurant and we will be returning.

Our waitress's recommendation of the manicotti was perfect and it was quite possibly the most delicious meal either of us have had.  Perfect pick for Valentine's Day.  Service was very professional, and a member of the Noto family even took our coats at the door.  Quite impressive!  The dessert "menu" was presented as a parade of samples, which really helped you to choose the perfect one for your mood.  Overall a great experience.

High marks.  I was greeted by a member of the Noto family, and they actually read and made efforts to accomodate my requests made in the online reservation.

Food and service were outstanding.  Our waiter made a great suggestion on a bottle of wine when we couldn't pick from their extensive list.  A great "special occasion" place to take your favorite person.

Noto's took very good care of our large group on New Year's Eve.  A very interesting menu, with some old standbys and some creative choices.  The service was friendly and doting.  Everyone left well-fed and happy.

My husband and I went here for NYE, we had 5 p.m. reservations which was perfect because we were first and alone for quite awhile.  The decor and ambiance of this restaurant are gorgeous.  The menu, while appears intimidating online, is not when you're there.  The waitress was helpful and so nice.  The food AMAZING!  I can't wait to get back there!!!  The next time we want to go to dinner, we won't have to decide.  I'm so excited!
