Literally have no complaints except the recent change in bread, why change one of the best things at your restaurant???? The new bread is chewy and has no taste. Seriously disappointed.
The service today was great and the meal was good - that said they have done away with the Fabulous Bread Sticks and replaced it with some sub par bread that isn't good at all. The salad and bread was a main part to why we enjoyed going so unless they go back to the good bread we may have to try something else. SAD DAY this has been one of our go to favorites for over 20 years. 🙁
This place has great food but they made a monumental mistake changing the bread. They used to have the best bread at any restaurant I've ever been to. It was a big reason why we would frequent here. It's basically the same bread as OG now.
Waitress was excellent, so was the other one because we were (all 7) watching. However, the owner should have been helping; he could have taken menu's to the tables, as well as utensils and napkins, while the very short-staffed 2 waitresses got drinks, took orders & delivered food to customers. Mr Nikki at Bright Star does the above, as well as picks up dishes to help his people. The 2 waitresses were also bussing their tables.....he could have helped with that.
Food was delicious, as always.
There needs to be some cleaning, but two waitresses did not have a free moment & should not be maids.
We have been a lot of times, and will go again, but one cook & 2 waitresses need help.
For many years our favorite restaurant but tonight i find out that they change the bread it was wrong idea mr joe can you please go back to the other bread and the waitress was unprofesional rude and chewing gum all the time
Love Costas Italian! Food is fresh! My family gets takeout often and it never disappoints!
Costa's has always been a staple for us in dining out. The food is always delicious and plentiful. On our last visit, we had to wait a very long time for our entrees, but the server was apologetic. However, it was definitely not his fault and the apology should have come from the management instead. The atmosphere needs a complete remodel. Or in the very least, a change in the flooring and seating. We will continue to dine at Costa's while hoping that things improve.

Waitress was very friendly. We ordered the calamari to start - tasted yummy. The bread was fresh out of the oven and scrumptious. Several of us ordered the mousakka and it was wonderful. Husband had chicken parmigiana and loved his. Son had gyro plate and devoured his. Entire meal was totally awesome. We have been going for years and never a bad meal.

ONE OF OUR FAVORITE PLACES! Should you be in the Hoover area any day or evening of the week other than Sunday, you owe it to yourself to visit this restaurant. When you enter, you'll feel as you are walking back in time. The restaurant appears not to have any updates in the past 50 years, but it doesn't matter. You won't come here for the atmosphere - you come here for the food and also the service. Last night my wife and I shared the baked spaghetti, salad and both had iced tea. Of course the delicious bread is included and our total bill including tax was $26. We ate and ate and took home a pound of baked spaghetti in a to go box! As good as the food was, our server Carrie was just that good. You'll feel welcome here and you'll want to come back again and again. 5 Stars plus!

This place is excellent. It's ole school Italian so delicious. I love their spaghetti with meat sauce. The different homemade salad dressings are very good. The blue cheese or house vinegarette is so good. I get extra to take home and buy lettuce at the store then top with their salad dressing.
