Absolutely phenomenal—service, food, and atmosphere were all top-tier. This place truly checks every box. The wheat is sourced directly from Italy, and the pasta is made fresh in-house daily, which you can genuinely taste. Every dish we ordered was outstanding, and the service was just as impressive. Our server was upbeat, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. My favorite detail? The lasagna is made with 100% beef—and it was hands down the best thing on the menu. The brownie dessert was also gluten free!

Michael is truly the best chef! The octopus and mussels were absolutely delicious—a must-try! Our server, Rog, was amazing too. He took such great care of us, made us laugh, and made us feel so welcome. Big shoutout to this awesome and adorable server!
The pasta, gelato, sauce and rolls are homemade and they did not disappoint!! The rolls with the olive oil and balsamic were so good but the mussels in the fra diavolo sauce were incredible!! There were so many mussels I should have made that my dinner, but we also got the chicken parm with a side of pasta and it was sooooo good!! The homemade sauce has a rustic old world style taste to it and we loved it. Our waitress, Daisy, greeted us with a big smile and was so pleasant! I wish we had saved room for the gelato but unfortunately we did not. I guess that means we’ll need to return the next time we are in town.
I'm no chef remember, just a man that loves food. A bit pricy but the quality was great. The rolls and sauce were wonderful to my pallet. I'm a big guy, that being said I'm not walking away hungry. I had the Shrimp Abbriggadda (I think that's right) and the House Salad. Both were very good. The service made me feel like I was in Italy as they went through the menu and specials. My buddy had the Lasagna. He'll update me later....hmmm.
Great people but better food, can’t recommend these guys enough for my favorite Italian place. It’s anywhere from like 20-40$ per person which is fine considering it feels like a pretty nice restaurant. My favorite/go-to is the shrimp arribiata. It’s a little spicy but sooo yummy.
Cool place. The lasagna is very yummy. Service is okay. I don't think I will be back since there are so many other places around that would rather try instead.
Cotona Italian Café in Park City is a cozy local spot that feels warm and welcoming. I really enjoyed the potato gnocchi (vegetarian) — simple, well-balanced, and surprisingly light and fluffy. It’s the kind of place that’s perfect for relaxing and sharing a good meal with friends. Highly recommend.
Like others have said, this place is AMAZING. From the attentiveness of the staff to their food and atmosphere...you will be satisfied from start to finish and wanting to come back Our server Roj was great; knowledgeable about the menu enthusiastic and made good recommendations for wine pairings with food. The food itself is outstanding! Salads are fresh, and flavorful. Their lasagna is excellent, and I recently had their special of the Mussels in Diablo sauce. Not too spicy, well flavored throughout, and a good size portion for the price. So again, start to finish was great and thank you again for making my friends birthday a wonderful experience.
