Claudio and JoAnne (owners) are the nicest couple I've ever met, we even know their kids by name. The food is authentic Italian (Claudio is originally from Italy). They make you feel very welcome, and even greet the ""regulars"" like us by name, and know our favorite dishes by heart. Claudio makes at least 2 or 3 dishes differently for me, and I really appreciate it. The place is always crowded, so reservations are a must, even tho Carlton is not much of a town. A 9 on the ""ambience"", as the place is a bit small town feel, i.e. not spectacular; but very genuine cafe feel.
