I had my sister's Bridal Shower at Cafe Tivoli. Rafael was so easy to deal with and worked tirelessly to make our event special. Steven was an excellent server and so were the other servers that were shy, gracious, helpful and did everything to accommodate my guests. I would highly recommend having your event here! Thank you Cafe Tivoli!!!!
Cafe Tivoli has been in the business for many years. They have authentic Italian food at amazing prices. Good Italian wines at very good prices & the service is great, very friendly and at your service. Their staff has been the same for years, so they must treat them well. For parties you cannot beat their prices! Location is excellent & plenty of parking in their lot or town lot across the street. One of my favorite spots for many years!
Great Italian food, excellent cocktails, excellent service. Although it was very crowded the waiter frequently visited our table. The tables are a little tight, that's why the 4 stars. But all in all, I would definitely go back again and again. Great atmosphere!
We've been here numerous times for baby showers, birthday parties and wedding receptions. The food from start to finish is delicious. We actually enjoyed the buffet this time around. For appetizers, we started with a fresh salad, cold antipasto, fried calamari & pizza.. For dinner they offered shrimp parmesan, veal milanese, broiled salmon, baked ziti, chicken cutlets, roasted potatoes and string bean with almonds. Each one tasted better than the next. And what would a wedding be without a delicious fresh cream strawberry, banana and chocolate white cake. The service was great, the entire staff was friendly and very accommodating. The area upstairs easily fit 100-125 people comfortably. The dance floor was small but always packed with plenty of wedding goers having a great time. I highly recommend Cafe Tivoli if you are planning an event you will not be disappointed. If not, definitely check them out for dinner.
By far one of the best old school Italian restaurants in the area have been a customer for over 30 years definitely recommend stopping in for a bite or a quick drink! staff is extremely friendly and accommodating
I recently had my bridal shower at Cafe Tivoli, and I can’t recommend them enough! My mom and sister worked closely with their team to plan everything, and it turned out absolutely perfect. From the start, Cafe Tivoli was incredibly professional, transparent, and easy to work with—no hidden fees, just clear communication and genuine passion for hosting memorable events. Their menu options were expansive and completely customizable, which made planning so much fun. The food was delicious, with huge portions, and they even packed up leftovers for us to take home. The service was outstanding—staff were attentive and constantly checking in to make sure guests had everything they needed. One of the nicest touches was how they helped break down and neatly pack up all of our decor at the end of the event, which made cleanup a breeze. They also had a great selection of linens that matched our theme perfectly, adding such a polished touch to the space. If you're looking for a venue that truly cares about making your event a success, Cafe Tivoli is the place. Warm, professional, and passionate—everything you could hope for. Highly recommend!
The service and food here is excellent be it eat in or delivery but I cannot rave enough about the Private Party service. I have had two functions here over the last two years. The staff are accommodating, attentive, calming admits chaos. They go above and beyond to make you and your guests have a great time. Every guest raves about the food. The waiters keep tables full of drink and food seamlessly. They keep you to your time limit as unobtrusively as possible. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a smaller space for a bridal shower, baby shower, anniversary or milestone birthday. They will far exceed your expectations.
Best service and fantastic food. They will adjust menu to suit.
