Dave, Just wanted to take a minute to tell you what a FANTASTIC meal we had at your place last weekend. It was the best Italian food I have had since I was in Tuscany. The egg with truffles was out of this world. I haven't stopped talking about it since we got home, and we will definitely be back. My mom, who is also a chef, can't wait to go. Friendly, knowledgeable staff and fun atmosphere too. Great job. Alexis Sideris-Davis Elegant Indulgences
"The first time we drove by Tello’s, without ever having stepped through the door, my brother said, “That’s going to be our place.” Coming together from across the country for a family vacation, we found respite with incomparable personalized service at Tello’s, and couldn’t help but find ourselves there on more than one occasion during our brief stay in South Haven. The incredible food, extensive wine list, and attentive staff will guarantee future reservations in the years to come." Jen Korman Phoenix, AZ
