“Went to surprise birthday party here last weekend. Very festive atmosphere. Lots of servers coming to our table to make sure we felt special. Complimentary dessert. Songs. Good cheer. Cozy settings and lots of parking. I like Olive Garden and this one in Lexington is a very good one. I got soup and salad. Great minestrone. Always love the salad.
Thank you Olive Garden for a wonderful afternoon with friends.“

“The food and service were exceptional from start to finish. The entire restaurant team went above and beyond to insure we had a wonderful dining experience.

We look forward to returning soon.“

“One of our team members says "ItalX is a gem in downtown Lex! The interior design/vibe is picturesque, the Italian food is incredible (I recommend the focaccia with whipped ricotta, the lasagna, and the tiramisu), and the drinks are also a 10/10! Perfect place for a date night or girl's night!"“

“We love everything about this place! The servers are sweet, knowledgeable, and on the ball, the atmosphere is old-world but clean, and the food is so good I'm pretty sure if I peeked into the kitchen I'd see a team of Nonas stirring all the pots. Our new favorite in Lexington 💚“

“I work a few doors down at The Rooster's Nest Barbershop so Damiano has become an absolute favorite for me. They have never once missed with quality of food and service. It's always clean and the vibe is relaxed with sports on TV and decor. The Milanese pizza is the best,ask for some garlic butter it's a great compliment to the flavors of this pizza.“

“Highly recommend. We tried 2 different delicious pizzas while there. The Chicago deep dish was out of this world! I don’t usually like thin crust but it was the best thin crust pizza I’ve ever had. The staff were super nice and the owner made sure to check in and ask how things were. We will definitely be back!“

“am very pocky with my Pizza & cheese. the thickness was good for me. the sauce is delicious & variation of pizzas is very good. you can order bigger pizzas for catering. i will be visiting more often! the staff is making a lot of effort to make people happy!“

“Some of the best pizza 🍕 ever. Everyone must try the BBQ chicken it really is to die for.“

“I would like to say that there is a certain server who keeps me coming back. Idk whether it's spelt "Christy" or "Kristy" in her case, but she is a very sweet waitress and is always brightening my visits. She gives me better customer service than not only anybody who's ever waited on me at Puccini's, but better than anybody who's ever waited on me anywhere I have been out to eat. I totally recommend you go there and support her as someone who can give the same type of service to you.“

“Great pizza and great service… Diffidently be returning..Maybe this week..super close to The home 2 suites hotel..“

“I’ve been a customer to this location even before they switched to the Giovanni’s brand . The people who run this location has been awesome to my family and I for so many years now which is why we continue to go back . They’re respectful , courteous, and always make sure our food is top notch . Customer for life“

“This store, alongside other Sir Pizzas in Lexington, needs a major renovation.
Surely, it brings back memories. However, it is a dark and dingy store.
They have updated the music box, and they have a decent sound system.
Seating, tables, and walls, even the ceiling, all need a major update.
As far as food prices go, I do believe they are equally competitive with others. Maybe even a little under.
Talking with employees the pay is definitely low.
Now, on the good side, the pizza is delicious, and thanks for the trip back to the 70s.“

“Service was excellent best spaghetti sauce blue cheese is like my moms reasonable price delicious“

“Wow!! Never ever eaten at Jet's before...One of the best Hawaiian pizzas I have EVER eaten. With popcorn chicken!I'm not a fan of Chicago deep dish, yet this Detroit style thick crust is EXCELLENT!Fresh! Ready for take out! Great Price for such a large, thick pizza.Well done. Will be coming back, again and again!“

“Today I ordered a half pepperoni and three meats pizza plus cheesy bread. OMG, it was so GOOD! It was made right and We love Little Ceasars’s. They made my day!“
