"Ponte Vecchio is the 5th most romantic restaurant in Cleveland." My fiance states. It was dead of winter, and I was so happy the restaurant has its' own parking lot. Yes, ambiance was warm. Yes, there was a view of murky waters and bridge. Although the staff was nice, the serves was rather slowwww and off at times. Our server kept forgetting random stuff, dropped off our check before we received our dessert, gave us someones else's check, etc. Usually I wouldn't mind, but a restaurant of this caliber needs to be personable.
On a lighter note, the food was delicious. But don't order the margherita pizza. It is probably the worst margherita we ever had in a shmancy restaurant. Save yourself!
Highly recommended: beef agnolotti and octopus insalata
Recommended: spag and meatball arrabiata
