“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 — Exceptional Italian Dining I had an absolutely unforgettable experience at L'Opera Italian Restaurant. From the moment we sat down, everything was perfect. Even the table bread stood out — warm, incredibly soft, and so fresh it practically melted in your mouth. It set the tone for an amazing meal. We started with the burrata, which was unbelievably creamy and paired beautifully with the tomatoes and seasonings. It was fresh, flavorful, and one of the best burrata plates I've had anywhere. The lasagna with vodka sauce was the highlight of the night. The layers were tender, the cheese was perfectly melted, and the vodka sauce had the ideal balance of richness and flavor without being heavy. You can taste the quality in every bite. The ravioli was just as impressive — perfectly cooked, generously filled, and served with a sauce that complemented it perfectly. Everything tasted homemade, authentic, and crafted with care. The service was warm and attentive, and the ambiance was elegant yet comfortable. The staff checked in at the right times and made the experience feel special without being intrusive. Overall, everything exceeded my expectations. L'Opera is officially one of my new favorite Italian restaurants. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for amazing food, great service, and a memorable dining experience“

“Really good food and great staff!“

“Food was delicious! Focaccia with anchovy dip was my fave although the carrots were a close second!

We were walk ins and it almost seemed like they wouldn’t be able to seat us so probably best to make a res on the weekend. Other than that the service was on point and the open kitchen was nice to see the masters at work with such a confident demeanor!

Highly recommend!“

“Aren’t too many good places around Frederick but Ricci’s is in the top 5. Great food. Always fresh and delish! Best time to go is when Tristan (and his brother) and Roxanne are behind the bar. Good food great drinks, great time!!!“

“I love Ellie’s they are my neighborhood spot! I always take friends and recommend to people visiting. Not only is the food absolutely delicious but the staff is amazing. The coffee house down the block doesn’t allow dogs in and I like to grab a coffee for our morning walks and they always take care of us! Thank you so much for contributing to our neighborhood and food scene 🤍🤍🤍“

I came in worried about eating out cause I can’t have gluten, and as it turns out I did not get sick because you guys were extremely careful with my order. Thank you so much. I will be coming back to order again some day when I am in town.“

“Been enjoying everything since I was 5 great food and better service love it“

“Il Saggio Italian Restaurant is honestly SUCH a vibe. The staff was super sweet and made us feel welcome the second we walked in. And okay… the robot waiter? Adorable. It rolls around with a giant plate of shredded Parmigiano like it’s on a mission to make cheese lovers happy. Iconic behavior.They even have olive oil and balsamic already on the table, which is elite. And the fresh bread? Bro… that stuff was heavenly. I could’ve eaten 10 pieces.Me and my colleague got the spaghetti bolognese and then tiramisu for dessert, and everything slapped. The pasta was rich and comforting, and the tiramisu was chef’s kiss — light, creamy, and actually perfection.Overall, Il Saggio is 10/10. Great food, great vibes, great people. I’d definitely go back.“

“I ordered here for the first time yesterday. I’ve always picked up orders to deliver for customers and the food always smelled good. I finally gave it a try and I must say I’ll definitely be back lol.“

“Asparagus appraiser was slightly salty, but very tasty. Sweet potato ravioli was great and NY steak was cooked and seasoned to perfection. We will be back!“

“It’s a modest place in a small strip mall that I’ve been visiting since I was a teenager. Franco’s is a good place to enjoy fine Italian food. I really enjoyed the “Franco’s Special” stuffed chicken breast. Service is great, prices are reasonable. Plenty of free parking too.“

“Worst Alfredo Sauce ever! Extremely disappointed. I'm not sure what happened to them, but I'm guessing they ran out. And someone tried to put some together quickly with milk and water. Because that's exactly what it tasted like. And so expensive too. Huge let down....“

“Great food..Great service I'll be going back“

“First time there, will definitely return. Very friendly service; the meatball sandwich was delicious, huge meatballs.“

“We wanted to put a twist on Canadian bacon and pineapple extra large. Instead of Canadian bacon we asked for sausage and beef meatballs chopped with additional mushrooms. It was a pretty big pizza for only 28 something with tax. $3 per extra topping. It was delicious!“

“We hadn't been to OG in a while, and to celebrate a friend's birthday we chose there for the convenience.
The service wasn't great. Waters and sodas weren't refilled and empty plates sat on the table a long time.
The bread sticks came out cool rather than hot and fresh.
When we needed the waiter he was hard to find.
Then a new waiter took over and the old one never said goodbye.

Though the 2nd waiter wss good. We asked to take the last of our salad home and he just gave us a whole new salad to go. That was very cool.
And the chocolate birthday cake they sent over was outstanding.“

“In celebration of My Lady birthday. The service was beyond expectation. The servers were kind, joyful, attentive and respectful. The food was brought to the table fresh, hot, and to the person who ordered it. The price was well in reach. We Gad an grantastic time.“

“Great customer service. delicious fresh pizzas !“

“Muy bueno el servicio la comida lo mejor“

“Had an awesome experience at North Italia! My server, Brooke, was amazing from start to finish. She gave great recommendations, checked in at the perfect times, and really took care of us. The service was truly spectacular and the food was delicious. Brooke made the whole night even better, definitely hope to have her again next time. Highly recommend!“

“Outstanding food and wine!! Thank you, Lorenzo!“

“At the moment you come to this restaurant the waiters give you a great feeling. Very congenial team, it is a good restaurant to enjoy with buddies or with your date. delightful cooking, specialist chief cook and stuff, honest price and attentive service. Warmly recommended.“

“Valentino’s Pizza Naples has extraordinary food, great prices, and extremely kind people.

I am visiting Long Beach for a few days and ran into a guy named Tony at church. We got to talking and turns out he is originally from Michigan where I live. Today I went on a run and had already spent my cash at a fishing store. I happened to run past Valentino’s pizza and was surprised to see a familiar face. It was Tony, and he owns the place! We chatted for a while outside and he offered me a free piece of Barbecue pizza! It was some of the tastiest pizza I have ever had, made by the kindest cook in California!“

“1st time here and no complaints that should impact the score. Pizza is HOT and fresh. We ordered a simple pepperoni and the taste is good, I like the crispiness of the crust and the bite of the pepperoni. The shop was empty on my visit but the place was clean and the staff was awesome. I'm not really close by but I would return for a pizza, I just wish they had NY Style pizza by the slice.
Overall I spent about $20 for a whole large pepperoni pizza, not a bad deal for a "mom & pop" style pizza spot.“

“buen servicio y la comida riquísima 😋“

“The food and service was delicious! My party has both kinds of chilaquiles and the shrimp tacos and it was all so good! I highly recommend. It is also decorated very nice. There is also parking on the left side of the restaurant if you can't find parking on the street.“

“My seafood alfredo never came and it was almost an hour later and the manager Melissa came over, asked about our experience, apologized after my food made it; she made sure our table was taken care of. I really appreciate it her customer service. I will definitely return.🫶💯“

“Great pasta. Very pleased thanks“
