Always packed and noise level is off the charts. Clientele is upscale. Food always good as well as service.

We had a lovely dinner in the back room. It would have been too loud in the front room to carry on a conversation. My only disappointment was- a charge for bread in an Italian restaurant seemed very odd to me. Having relocated from NJ- bread was always served with an Italian meal.

When we first entered the noise level was above exciting and I thought we wouldn't be able to hear each other. Fortunately we were seated in a room separate from the bat where the noise level was fine. The service was great. The drinks and food were exceptional and as it was Wednesday there were $8 martinis.

Every time I come to this place, it gets better and better... the food is fantastic, the drinks are superb, and the staff is just spot on. Last visit we had Karolina as a waitress who is fantastic this time around we had Chandler who did a tremendous job .... Keep up the great work.

Great food and a beautiful ambiance. We loved it and will be back the next time we are in Lakewood Ranch!

Been several times and this time was disappointing. Lasagna was okay not outstanding as in previous visit. Not sure why but it was a totally different flavor and presentation. Service was exceptional.

We had a great evening my wife Leeloo had a lasagna and I have the chicken Parm both amazing.

The food was delicious. Our server was very attentive. One person was in a wheelchair and needed to elevate their foot, they were very accommodating. We did call ahead to make them aware of the situation. My only complaint is the noise level.

Josh was the perfect server. We loved our salad (Bar Italia Chopped Salad), chicken parm and side of escarole and white beans. Our bottle of Chianti Reserva made the dining experience exceptional. It was a perfect dining experience.

Had the meatball appetizer chicken, marsala and lasagna. All were great prices are very reasonable, considering other restaurants in Lakewood Ranch. Outdoor area had fans and misters making it quite comfortable. We chose, however, to eat inside one of the better restaurants for the price in our area.

Ordered the luncheon combo. It was huge and delicious. The chips were warm! Usually don't even like chips and scoffed these up. Service excellent and friendly. Will return.

Great Italian food, service .... Etc. A go-to place for great food and experience. Try the pizza too ... my family love going when they visit.

Beautiful place with excellent food. Our server was kind, courteous, attentive, professional and made great recommendations. However, it was very noisy, they should put up a divider of some sort between the dining area and bar area. Couldn't even talk across the table without having to speak very loudly, which only creates more noise. If there is a next time we may decide to sit outside.

Food and service were great! Portions are large and menu prices are competitive. I personally don't like an exceptionally noisy atmosphere. It was hard to have a conversation with the people at our table.
