A shame that they'll be leaving us next year. Amazing food, atmosphere, and service. Best wishes to everyone there.

I had dinner with 3 friends last night and it was the worst restaurant experience I’ve ever had!! 1st off we had reservations at 6:15 and the owner (who was the host) told us our table wouldn’t be ready for 15-20 minutes, then he came back 5 minutes later and told us the same thing. At 6:25 he told us he could seat us outside (our reservation was for inside) immediately if we wanted…which we decided to accept. So we were seated at 6:30, our server finally came to our table 15 minutes later to take our drink order and at that time we placed our dinner order. We finally got our dinner at 7:45, the veal Marsala was terrible and the chicken parm was overcooked and tasted awful! The service overall was terrible!

So sad they are closing at the end of 2025. This place is a little Italian treasure. It's so nice to walk in the front door and see (and smell) the kitchen. Such a cozy place. Even the “outdoor” seating is fine with the heaters and enclosures. I hope someone picks up where DiFabio's ends.

Lovely little Italian restaurant. Service and food were excellent. A little close quarters, you will be friends with your neighbors before dinner is over... But the ambience is very nice. Would definitely go back again.

An authentic Italian restaurant with delicious food and a fun atmosphere. We enjoy it there and will be sad for it to close at the end of the year. Very friendly and knowledgeable servers, but ours had to multitask and we had to ask for more water and to order another drink. Food took an extremely long time, but in the end it was worth it. It was very busy! Planning to go again in a few weeks. Reservations are a must!

Delicious food and excellent service! I read that they have decided to close at the end of the year - we are going to miss this place 😢

Everything was super delicious, as normal. Never had a bad experience or meal. Escargot was awesome, shrimp scampi was super hot and delicious. And my date loved her meal as well. Service was excellent. Always leave feeling like we got a great meal for a reasonable price, when compared to some of their competitors. Looking forward to returning
This is our “go to” place for Italian dining in Louisville. Excellent, flavorful food served by friendly, helpful folks. The atmosphere feels upscale in a comfortable, casual way. And the value is amazing. Perfectly sized portions at extremely reasonable prices!

I'll say this every single time I come here.. the best damn food in Louisville!!! This food is the stuff dreams are made of. If food were a person, I'd marry the Chicken Marsala.

This is our go to restaurant for anniversaries and birthdays. From the appetizers to the main course to the dessert - everything is outstanding! My favorite meal is the caprese pasta with shrimp. My husband and son love the tiramisu, while my daughter and I love the flourless chocolate cake!
Delicious food, wine and cocktails & excellent service made for a perfect dinner out during our Louisville visit. We started with the table bread that itself was to die for, had calamari, manicotti, lasagne, chicken parm and fettuccine Alfredo, and all were amazing. Topped it off with house made tiramisu! Yum!

Great food, Great price, Great Service ! We sat on the front deck on a lovely Fall evening, and it was a splendid experience. I had the famous Shrimp Scampi - generous with very plump shrimp. We'll be back. Thanks!
