“Amazing food!
I am visiting from Florida and this restaurant was recommended as having the best Italian food in town.
I can tell that this for sure is the best Italian food that I've had probably ever.
Amazing flavor with the pasta was cooked to perfection.
The appetizer was also amazing, one of the best mozzarella sticks I've had in a long time.
Parking seems like it could be an issue of there is a lot people though were able to find spot pretty quick
The only thing that unfortunately did not go with the good experience, was the service. Our server pretty came took the left us with a bottle of water and didn't come back until we were pretty much done with out food and were dry with no water left in the bottle.
Still the next time I am in town I'll make sure to visit for amazing Italian experience.“

“We have gone to Freddy’s many times and always had an amazing experience! The service is always amazing, the wine plentiful, and the food delicious and consistent. We had a party for my husband’s birthday this past weekend and were so impressed by the execution of service. If you want to be truly taken care of, come to Freddy’s!“

“Excellent food and service 😊“

“Went to Amore tonight for our anniversary dinner. Our waiter, Robert, was outstanding explaining the specials of the day and suggesting a great wine which really complimented our dinner of shrimp and lobster linguine which was cooked to perfection. Our dessert of crème brûlée was spectacular! The best meal we have had in a while and I highly recommend Amore for a truly enjoyable experience.“

“I have been looking for an authentic Italian restaurant since I left my home town in Italy and I finally found Le’ Fresca! I felt like I was home again! Marco, the food and his staff are amazing! Highly recommend going there! We’ll be going back very often!“

“Scott did a great job acknowledging our birthdays. He provided excellent service and refills/replenishments were always timely. The food was good, not all the ingredients were explained upfront (e.g. corn chowder had bacon, unknown until delivered). Minor glitch, we always enjoy a special celebration here when we are in town visiting family.“

“Amazing. Definitely one of the best restaurants in Birmingham. The freshest, hand-made pastas with wonderful ingredients, to the Roman style pizza, daily soups, and crave-able desserts will keep you coming back for more! The service is top notch too. Love their delivery option. Perfect every order! *get the daily special! *daily soups are a MUST! Ragu is insane.... Cacio Pepe.... Heck, it's all fantastic!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ First Visit – Absolutely Incredible! The atmosphere was cozy and elegant, and the staff made us feel right at home from the start. But the highlight of the night? The food—hands down some of the best Italian cuisine we’ve ever had. Every bite was full of rich, authentic flavor, and you can tell the ingredients are top-quality. From the appetizers to the desserts, everything was delicious and beautifully prepared. This place is a true gem and we’re already planning our next visit. If you haven’t been yet you’re missing out!“

“Wonderful staff, great food and family owned! What a great combination.“

“Love this place! My favorite place to eat in Trussville. Service, food, price have always been wonderful!“

“First dining experience with the food truck tonight at Irondale’s Fun Day at the Tracks. It was absolutely DELICIOUS! I had the chicken bacon ranch pizza taco. Everything was fresh, the chicken was tender and the pizza wrap was perfectly toasted. Soft enough to fold, crispy enough to bite! My only complaint is why haven’t I eaten there before!! Is there a more than 5 star rating??? 🏆“

“Fantastic food. Great atmosphere. The pasta…. Every variation 🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼.“

“Best Seafood Lasagna anywhere!“

“This us our favorite O.G although it's about a 90 min drive and today's visit was another awesome one, Mary is a FABULOUS server, so attentive, kind and helpful. When we come back (in the next 2 weeks) I will be asking for her section. Thank you!“

“Came here with my daughter for my birthday, we had Amber as our server who was exceptional! She helped us choose a fun drink to celebrate, food was wonderful, and she gave us a free tiramasu for my birthday. Go see Amber at North Italia!!“

“The absolute best deli sandwiches in town! Family owned since the early 70’s and I’m pretty sure none of the recipes have changed!! Try the Rich man’s Poboy (you can thank me later)!!“
