The absolute best Italian restaurant in the area!!! So glad I found this gem. And the prices are soooo inexpensive. $22 for chicken piccata and many yummy dishes under $20. Grubhub also did not disappoint. Our food was here quickly and hot. I’m just in awe of the prices. I ordered two meals for $42 and I’ll have left overs all week. The meals were definitely on the larger side. I didn’t even need salt or pepper because both dishes were absolutely perfect. I will be telling my local town groups about this place.
Recommended dishes: Chicken Piccata

Frequent patron. Tough part is what to order! Appetizer of shared sausage pepper and onion pizza for the table 👍🏻 Veal saltimboco was awesome. Finished with crème brûlée. Excellent all around

The food was great! About half the table had seafood dishes and everyone commented that it was cooked perfectly (scallops, mussels, shrimp etc. ), which seems pretty hard to do in a complex dish.
Our waiter was very friendly and attentive. We’ll definitely be back!
Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of tables and booths with open ends for wheelchair access. Dining floor was fairly open.

I have a severe food allergy and they are always very accommodating. Kerry was our server and she was excellent! What a great place and very reasonable price point for quality food

Saturday night dinner at Giacomo's for my teenage son's birthday. Went specifically for their zuppa di pesce, one of his favorites.
Called ahead to for a reservation, which I recommend, especially on a Saturday night. We were greeted warmly and seated fairly quickly. The dining room consists of several booths around the perimeter, tables for 2 or 4 closely spaced in the middle and a bar with several seats in a corner. Despite the open kitchen, the noise level is reasonable.... We could converse easily without shouting.
Our server, Kerry (sp?), was warm, quick and efficient. She was friendly and professional.
We had fried calamari as an appetizer. Perfectly, hot, crisp and tender.
As an entree, we ordered a zuppa di pesce, scampi style, for 3. This enormous pasta masterpiece is the only entree I've ever eaten at Giacomo's (this was my 5th time). It's THAT good! Linguine with a whole lobster, shrimp, scallops, calamari, clams (in shell), and mussels (in shell) in a scampi broth. Photo below.) You pay market price ($72 today), but it was worth it, especially since we took enough leftovers home for another 3 servings. Absolutely deliciously decadent!
Kid-friendliness: They have a kids' menu, but this is very much an adult restaurant.
Wheelchair accessibility: All ground level. Bathrooms have wheelchair accessible stalls. Plenty of accessible tables.

A go to for us, unfortunately had a bad night, cold meatballs, undercooked soupy pizza, forgot the salad, had to make an extra trip and for our trouble we received a soggy cannoli. Like I said, an off night. Usually good.

This is like having a bit of the North End out in the suburbs. The homemade pasta is so far superior to the typical suburban Italian restaurant. There's a great deal of choices. The portions are very large and the value is still good. We go to this place often and the service is usually good although not great. They are moving a lot of diners through. The atmosphere is good but gets very noisy. We heartily recommend this restaurant.

Great food locally! Our waitress had great tips (sorry i forget your name). How could broccoli Rabe taste so good? The veal saltimbocca was very tender, tastey and not overpowered by salty panchetta! If you like almond flavor i recommend the almond cake for a tiramisu-like alternative. Very reasonably priced for today's standards. Lively atmosphere, early Saturday evening. I can't wait to return to try other menu items.

As a frequent visitor with my lady and her father, Giacomo's Ristorante is wonderful. One of my favorite dishes at the restaurant is their Fettuccine with Salmon! On October 25th, I had a chance to visit Giacomo again and tried their Chicken Piccata dish. At times, I was confused by the taste of blue cheese, and was unsure whether it was due to the artichokes mixed in with the chicken and pasta. Nonetheless, it was a delicious meal and there were no leftovers. Our waitress was amazing as well, attentive and provided awesome service! Additionally, the desserts were beautifully plated and my canoli was very delicious?.
