Tonight it all started with Jada. She provided wonderful suggestions and excellent service. From taking our order to delivering our meal her service was over the top. Now let's talk about the food that is so delicious it's almost hard to describe but I will. We started with Caesar Salad and it was just a delicious experience. For our main course we had Eggplant Parmigiana and Chicken Genovese. The Chicken Genovese was outta this world. The sauce was so scrumptious on the pasta and the chicken was only perfect. The Eggplant Parmigiana was generous and delicious. Aaron the Manager ensures the level of service and attention is what you'd expect from an amazing restaurant like Cranelli's. You can feel how genuine the family vibe is as soon as you walk in. The Staff all provide service with a smile on their face that is genuine as the Owner's set the tone and make sure everyone is taken care of from the patrons to all the staff. On a scale of 1-10 I would give Cranelli's a 20 it is AWESOME.

Love me some Cranelli's! The gluten free version of their dishes are always amazing for all of the pasta options. And all the regular dishes are always extremely tasty. This is my definite go to Italian spot, and I'm not even a big Italian fan, but I never turned down an opportunity to eat there!

Came here for a girls night out! The ambiance is lively and the food is good. There was a little wait due to it being the holidays but it was worth it! We enjoyed their lasagna and wine selection! The servings are a good amount for one person. It's a most try if your in the neighborhood

Really enjoyed this restaurant. We were visiting from California and stayed at the Element next door with no car, so it was nice being able to just walk to the restaurant. We got really great service from Ryan & he even gave us complimentary garlic knots as it was our first time. The food was reasonably priced for the amount/portion you get. I liked how they give an option (for some entrees) to order either a half or full portion. Definitely recommend this place!

Our absolute favorite Italian place! The food tastes homemade- because it is! The service is always prompt and friendly. They have the best menu- they've got your typical Italian items and lots of things you don't see in a menu, like chicken cacciatore and spicy choices. The only bad thing is they are so good they're always packed and hard to get into! It's ok, I get it, it's a great place!

The portions were perfectly sized, the pasta was fresh made and delicious... And the best part was the Luxardo cherry in my Old Fashion. I'll definitely be going back... Only con is the cramped parking lot, so go early

Lunch was very good! Shared the antipasto plate (perfect for 2, would be a stretch for more people) and each ordered half of a pasta. One thing I don't love is the $4 split plate charge. Fees like these are just silly. Most of the time people splitting plates will order more than enough to make up for the second entree restaurants are concerned about (like drinks, sides, and dessert).

Still great! Tonight we ordered (to go) the lasagna, penne alla vodka, chicken parm, and the cheese calzone. The cheese calzone is literally incredible. In fact I think it might be the best one I have ever had. The pasta was all pretty good, and out of the 3 dishes we ordered, the lasagna was my personal fave. I recommend getting a side of red marinara for that because there is a rich bechamel sauce on the dish. Service was great! It was Saturday night and they are BUSY. I hadn't been here in years prior to tonight, and was pleasantly surprised to see they expanded. They still have a nice patio, and they have a nice and bigger bar now. This is a great spot for a casual date night and also a nice place to bring your family. In the future I will be back for that delicious calzone and a bottle of wine !

I finally made it here after hearing about it from several people. Cranelli's is quite busy with people seated outside and inside. The environment can be quite loud making conversations difficult. So keep that in mind. The prices are reasonable and if you check in for Yelp your first time, you get garlic knots for free. The fettuccine Alfredo with chicken was delicious. It's creamy and it's just super tasty. If you order it with chicken, it's like the Olive Garden one. The Arancinis are a tasty appetizer and it's just like a giant deep fried cheese ball. The garlic knots are full of flavor. They have specials every now and then. I ordered the strawberry margarita and that was quite delicious. It's also a lot bigger than I assumed.
