Babbo is one of our favorites! We love how the environment is great for families, date night, or just getting dinner with some friends. The staff is very welcoming and helpful, and the food is delicious. Highlights for us were the Italian Sodas and the flexibility we were given to customize our order, taking their already amazing Creamy Lemon Ricotta but adding chicken and pesto - absolutely mouth watering.

Came here for a date night- my partner was craving Italian pasta.
There was ample parking in the lot- it’s located in a parking complex with a lot of other restaurants and stores. Easy enough.
The store sign was off but they were in fact open. This seems to be a bit smaller location?
There was maybe a five minute wait just for us to have a table cleaned for us. Otherwise it wasn’t a hassle at all.
Staff was friendly and courteous. Very good recommendations.
We tried the deep fried mozzarella balls and we couldn’t recommend these more.
Their homemade bread and oil options were amazing, and they kept them coming.
My partner tried one of their Italian sodas- the dreamsicle and it was like a dessert in a glass.
We each got a pasta dish. I got the Tuscan tortellini with chicken. I picked grilled but it would’ve been better with fried. I also didn’t like the consistency of the tortellini. It was good cheese inside but the outer shell was a bit too chewy & I just didn’t enjoy the dish as much as i thought I would’ve. It come from an an Italian city whose pasta is unrivalled so it’s hard for me to find places I’d rather a five star. We had also ordered a calzone to go which was forgotten about but by the time we were finished we opted not to bother- we were stuffed.
The restaurant was clean. Atmosphere was nice.
Not bad for a chain.
Very extensive menu with options for everyone. Next time I’d try one of their tasty looking salads.
Would return!

Went in 45 minutes before closing. It was FREEZING and air blowing cold non stop. We asked if the air could be turned up as it was 75° outside. We were told NO. We asked if we could sit on the patio and they said they don’t serve outside this late even though there were several tables being served. Asked to see a manager. No one came over. After waiting 25 minutes without ordering we got up to leave. On the way out I asked again for the manager and this arrogant guy said he was. He said his name was Timothy. We asked to speak to him and he said he had to check out a customer outside and walked away from us. There were no other customers in the restaurant The staff could not have cared less that we were uncomfortable or unhappy. Timothy was unqualified to have staff report to him. He was rude and it was obvious to us why they had no other customers inside the restaurant. People wonder why places are closing down. Because of the attitude of workers. Timothy obviously doesn’t own Babbios or he wouldn’t have treated customers like that.I hope the owner cares enough to read this and get new staff that want to work and represent Babbios. We will not go there again.

We recently had our wedding reception catered by Babbo Italian Eatery, and I can honestly say it was the most delicious buffet we've ever experienced! From start to finish, the food was outstanding, and our guests were absolutely blown away by the flavors and presentation. It was clear that everyone left the buffet feeling satisfied and happy!
The team at Babbo was incredibly professional and attentive, ensuring that everything ran smoothly. Their dedication to quality and service truly made our special day even more memorable.
I highly recommend Babbo Italian Eatery for anyone looking to elevate their wedding or event with a delicious dining experience. Thank you for making our wedding celebration so unforgettable!

We usually enjoy their food and mostly do take out. Tonight, there was not bread and olive oil with balsamic and the Valducci was very dry with almost to no sauce. Will not be back in a hurry as service and quality for take out goes down once the snow birds start packing in.
Unhappy!

This is my first experience with this restaurant.
We chose a bench in the bar as my KC Chief's were playing.
We caught the happy hour by a hair. Their stuffed Portobello mushroom was awesome.
My friend ordered spaghetti and meatballs, and I ordered their Italian sausage. Both dishes were delicious. I will say, coming from a rich background of Italian cuisine (in Kansas City), that their sausage was not the best I've ever had, but it was still good. My friends' meatballs were excellent. We, both, had leftovers to enjoy another day.
The service staff was busy but still attentive and friendly.
If you like quaint, romantic Italian restaurants, I would sure recommend this place.
