The staff is super nice. The food is priced well, and it was super good. I had the lasagna, which normally I'm worried about, but they had the perfect mixture of everything. A friend of mine with me had the shrimp and grits, and she said it's one of the best she ever had.

Italian Twist for Brunch ??•We have been wanting to try this spot but have not been in town to go. Well, we did Saturday Brunch and would absolutely come back. Small house looking space, greeted with the bar at the door and seating to the right. I asked how long it’s been open and 26 years! I see why too ?•We got the Benedict, Deluxe Grit Bowl and The Godfather Omelette. These each came with a side of either potatoes or grits. I cannot speak for the potatoes because we all three got grits and they were the best I’ve had. Very creamy, smooth and not dry at all. Each of the dishes were good, but I will say the Godfather was spectacular. It had so many meatballs on the inside, mixed with the cream cheese that I still am not sure what kind is used. The marinara/pasta sauce over the top was very delicious and you can tell homemade ??•Overall very pleasant experience, and we will be back to try their lunch sometime soon. That is something to note as they are not open past 2 o’clock any day from what I could tell.

Food was delicious. First server made it seem that I was an inconvenience to be there alone. Second one was very friendly.

It's a small place but warm and welcoming. The food is great had the blackened reddish. Moist and enough spice for flavor.

I stopped by here yesterday and the nice man working the front looked genuinely disappointed to tell us there'd be a wait. The food smelled so good and everyone looked so happy that we stopped back by today instead. Our waiter was the epitome of good customer service and (dont tell my mom) the meatballs were the best I've ever had. Mom had nothing but compliments for her omlette, and we both had to ask about their wine so we could get some for home.I've eaten at a lot of fantastic restaurants in Slidell, but this has got to have been the best experience yet, and that's saying something!

I got up Sunday morning and told my wife we were going to eat somewhere and searching on Google Map I saw this restaurant and decided to go. It's our first visit here, it's a little small place, we waited a little but it was worth the wait. Very good service. Our waiter was Helmer, very attentive to everything. The exquisite food ??. We ordered black coffee, which honestly wasn't coffee, it was more like coffee-flavored water, but we still asked the waiter if he could change the stronger coffee for us, but the kind and sincere person told us that was what the coffee was like and he apologized for that. Then we ordered pecan pancakes, which were delicious. Then they brought us food, which we had to leave aside the pancakes because of the good portion of food. My wife ordered the Godfather Omelette and I ordered the eye opener, both super delicious. Delicious china juice. Truly a hidden gem this place. I recommend it 100%. ?? and ??I got up Sunday morning and told my wife we are going to eat somewhere and looking on google map I saw this restaurant and decided to go.

My husband and I have made this one of our favorite spots in Slidell. The first time, we had the following:Pecan pancakes( love these), breakfast potatoes, grits, Gulf Coast omelet, and the Godfather omelet. Superb!!Then we came back another day for lunch. We had the following:Crab cakes ( full of crab), crawfish cornbread ( this was the special of the day...OMG, delicious comfort food), blackened red fish, and green beans. We will be back for King Cake. The waiter ( female, not sure of name) is always welcoming and helpful. Thank you ma'am for your service ❤️.

My husband and I wanted to try somewhere new for breakfast, so I did a Google search, and found this little gem. Was a little thrown off by the name, Taste of Italy, assuming it to be a lunch and dinner establishment. Boy was I incorrect. Herman took care of us with a smile, and he gave spectacular service. The restaurant is small and quaint. You feel a good vibe when you walk in the door. The food was out of this world. I had the "diet plate" and my husband had the Godfather. The dishes were truly some of the best food we've ever eaten in Slidell. Large portions, a medley of flavors, and half of each of our plates we're taking home. Want something different that will blow up your taste buds? Give yourself the pleasure of dining here. Can't wait to come back and enjoy some other eye catching entrees. Would give them 10 stars.Michelle & Raymond
