“Incredible food, incredible atmosphere, incredible experience. I have never found a restaurant so enjoyable! I already have another reservation!!! The food is so flavorful and cooked to perfection. Flavors came in waves in each bite, which was very enjoyable for us! The level of artistry each plate has is astounding. I feel very fortunate for the chance to experience food like this! I cannot recommend it enough!“

“Great experience. Kimberly went above and beyond. Will definitely return.“

“Super fresh subs and veggie tray. Gonella's trays were a hit for our party!“

“We've always had a great time here , service and food always amazing , I'm sure things were off this day we went . Our server was barely at our table and rushed off anytime we asked for something without asking the whole table . Food was good but some of the pastas lacked sauce . They had to give half off one of my friends meals. But will always come back :)“

“The steak focaccia sandwich was AMAZING!!!!! HIGH RECOMMENDED!!!!“

“We planned on trying a few other pasta spots for Valentine’s Day, but everything was booked solid. Ended up giving the new kid on the block, Oak & Reel, a shot—and I’m glad we did. The veal-stuffed ravioli was unreal. Do yourself a favor and save room for dessert—it’s non-negotiable. And the Banana Run cocktail? Dangerously good.“

“My work place got pizza from Fredi the other day and I was impressed. The place itself wasn’t too big, and it was very popular. Luckily we ordered ahead. All the pizzas we got seemed to come with basil on them, but it was delicious. The tomato sauce tasted very fresh and bright, and the toppings were high quality. The crust had crispy edges and was fairly floppy towards the middle. It made for an excellent meal for me and my coworkers. I’d definitely get their pizza again.“

“We hosted our baby shower at D’Amato’s in December, and it was absolutely fabulous from start to finish. It’s such an amazing spot for a private, intimate event—we had around 50 guests, and the space was perfect. The entire process was seamless, the food was unbelievable, and the staff truly went above and beyond to make the day special. Everything exceeded our expectations, and our guests are still talking about how wonderful it was. I would highly recommend D’Amato’s for any special occasion!“

“Thank you John for once again exceeding our expectations this afternoon. You accommodated our large group with such efficiency and ease. The food was delicious and the service amazing. All this in a quaint and cozy atmosphere“

“Food was amazing and staff was incredible“

“GRACE is an amazing server, great at suggestions she is personable and delightful. The food was everything her recommendations on food and beverages did not miss‼️“

“My son, who's moving to SanDiego, treated me there. He's been several times. Ambience, service, dinner and dessert were all excellent. Coffee was pretty darn good too. Can't go wrong!“

“I like to thank the staff at Andiamo especially Thelma who was our server.. Also, thank you Mike for stopping by to see if everything was good. Im glad that we had chosen that location to celebrate Rosalyn birthday“

“GREAT RESTAURANT“

“Tonight we dined here for the first time , we had the most amazing night ! Great food met with the upmost amazing service by Andre and Chris both have amazing personalities that made the night personable and just over all wonderful, pasta was fresh and everything was just amazing. can’t wait to go back! 10/10 !“

“Really good food. Will come again and again. We always get extra bread basket. I ordered the shrimp Alfredo and the special pizza for me and my wife. Alfredo was cooked to perfection and the pizza was toasted on the bottom. Great service as well.“

“My husband and I and our son and daughter in law went to Nico Walkerville last week and it was a wonderful first time experience for us all. The atmosphere was beautiful. Very inviting. We had plenty of space and were very comfortable. The meals were divine! From the apps to the main course to the deserts and drinks and coffee! A#1! Would highly recommend everyone to go👍“

“Staff was extremely friendly and courteous. Our waiter Giorgio was charming and worked hard to make our evening perfect. Upon discovering a tiny mistake in my order, he immediately brought me a new plate (although I had not complained—the first plate was yummy). The dish I actually ordered was so delicious, but of course now I had too much food, but they expected me to take both pastas home, providing containers before I thought to ask. Then a complimentary tiramisu on top of that! We felt very well taken care of. I don’t expect such special treatment every time but the food was so good we will definitely go back as often as we can.“

“Thank you for the amazing service and top-notch food! What an amazing hidden gem! My daughter and son-in-law's beautiful wedding reception was everything we could have asked for and more!!!“

“Ordered pizza for pickup while staying across the street at Holiday Inn Express. Although the toppings were plentiful and delicious, the crust was undercooked & a little doughy! Plus, it was on a sheet of parchment/wax paper that was completely stuck to the crust & impossible to peel off! Unfortunately, these 2 details turned what should have been an enjoyable night into a messy and frustrating experience!“

“The chicken piccante is the absolute best!!! Amazing food, as always!“

“The staff is very good. Friendly fast and accurate. The owners are Theo Deanna and Paul. They are there to help you get the most amazing dinning experience. If ever you need something to supplement your meal just let the waitress know and you will be amazed by the service.“

“The food has been impeccable the times we've come. The service was outstanding. Shoutout to the team for always killin it“

“My husband and I found this cozy spot last weekend. A sweet, friendly atmosphere where they make you feel right at home. (So much so we went back for a drink before they closed) The food was delicious, service lovely and the drinks fabulous.“

“Visited The Cook's Shop for my wife's birthday and had a wonderful experience. Carlos was our server—attentive, friendly, and made sure we were well taken care of throughout the evening.

For the appetizer, I had the grilled calamari. It was perfectly tender and came with two sauces: one layered beneath the squid and another served on the side, both adding great flavor contrast.

For the main course, I chose the scaloppine piccata. The risotto it came with was creamy, rich, and packed with mushrooms—absolutely delicious.“

“It use to be be a favorite restaurant. After the renovations it has changed. I am stating from a top notch restaurant now everything has changed. Quality, wait staff, noise level. Everything was wrong when we went there. I know they have to factor cost and profit and this is what was best. Not for us, won’t be back“

“1st time coming here. wish I would have known about this place before now.. So glad seen it on a TikTok video. We will definitely be back again . Chicken Parm and House salad was very good . only issue we had was found out after they had a Specials Sheet and we never seen it or was told about . my wife would have definitely had the fish Special 😔.. but next time will make sure we ask I guess to make sure we see it..“

“amazing time and service“

“Best Italian cuisine in Windsor Essex County. Always a wonderful time coming here...excellent food, friendly service and love the ambiance!“

“Outstanding restaurant and amazing food.“

“Pastaio is a wonderful addition to the Grosse Pointe dining scene. The space feels warm, inviting, and thoughtfully designed—perfect for a relaxed night out that still feels a little special. The food was delicious, with so many great options that make it hard to choose just one favorite. Everything we ordered was beautifully prepared and full of flavor.

I also loved seeing a well-thought-out mocktail menu. It’s such a nice touch and something that feels very current and inclusive—whether you’re not drinking that night or just want something fun and intentional beyond water or soda.

One of my favorite features of the space is the semi-private area in the back. It’s ideal for hosting—intimate enough to feel special, but still connected to the energy of the restaurant. You can tell this is a place designed with gathering in mind, which I always appreciate.“

“Looking forward to the next menu!“

“Just celebrated our 10th Anniversary...and didn't even think twice about where we would go..somehow you continue to outdue yourselves each and every time . John, Debbie and crew..thank's for making our experience perfect!“

“Driven by here many times but never stopped in, and we finally went in today. The owner (i think?) was so sweet! We ordered 2 Italian beefs (1 hot, 1 mild), a chicago dog, and Cajun shrimp soup. Never had an Italian beef before, but this did not disappoint! The giardiniera was super flavorful, and the sandwich didn't skimp on the beef. I've had many chicago dogs, in Chicago, and this one held up with the competition there. The andouille sausage in the soup was AMAZING. We will 100% be going back here!

My wife's review:
ARE YOU KIDDING ME. In a town with very few...flavorful...options, Max's is a goldmine!!! I had the Cajun shrimp soup and not only was it delicious, but everything tasted fresh, warm, and like it came straight from someone's kitchen. The owner (who's name I'm sorry to have missed!) was so kind and warm. To think we've been living here over a year and had never encountered this place!

Love, love. Kudos to the Max team for their great work :)“

“My parents have said for some time that this pizza was the best in the area, and I finally got to try it today. They were right! We had their round supreme and square Hawaiian with a side or marinara and ranch. The sauce on this is pizza is perfect - very fresh flavor but not too acidic. Generous on the toppings, quality mozzarella, and the bread is some of the best I’ve had. Do yourself a favor and stop by Little Italy!“

“Great food and drinks! the atmosphere is warm and welcoming... I had dinner last night and absolutely loved my server Jamie... What a great and fun personality he is... We'll definitely be back soon.“

“I honestly don't know why it has taken me so long to write a review for Alpino because my husband and I love this place so much! It has become my restaurant of choice to celebrate my birthday for many reasons. I love that they keep the beautiful patio open even during the hottest of days (which is usually what it is for my July birthday), they have the best seasonal menu additions that use local ingredients, and their laid back yet elegant charm is exactly what we always look for. The food is amazing! We love unfussy food that lets the quality ingredients shine and the raclette with a touch of honey just makes me grin from ear to ear (not to mention the tomato soup that is out of this world). The Frulingzauber "spring magic" cocktail is my favorite of all time. I would drink one every day for the rest of my life if I could. Of course, none of this would matter if the people weren't wonderful at Alpino, but they are just as warm and inviting as the food. I loved that they all signed a birthday card for me when we were there last. This is definitely a gem of a place that you don't find everywhere.“

“Leonora is truly fantastic. Such a kind human with honestly some of the best customer service. Called for our yearly Christmas Eve order and as usual always a pleasure to work with. The food is always good, the staff is super kind, and it’s as usual a wonderful experience

Wanted to update with the food pics….. everything was amazing. Thank you again!!!!!!!“

“We loved everything about our visit! The food, the service, the ambiance!“

“Amazing, 5 stars all around !“

“great restaurant, lovely accomodations“

“Love the inside. It's clean and like a step back in time. I love the great staff. I really love the PIZZA! I'd go more often but it's a pleasant stop after a drive to get my haircut. It's a true, real gem.“

“The service was amazing and the food was delicious!“

“Excelente !!!!! Para una buena estadía y tomarte algo refrescante“

“Charming. An old school Italian restaurant in a charming part of Grosse Pointe Park. A family friendly restaurant without being adult unfriendly ?. I went with a classic lasagna and it tasted like I was a “made man” in the Corleone family or something. Heaven! Atmosphere was classy without being stuffy. Midweek dinner and not much of a crowd so we were seated right away. I think my favorite part was tomato sauce that was used in the lasagna.“

“Excellent food, great service, Loved everything about it. Definitely will be back“

“Stopped in for lunch. Being a conisseaur of French onion soup, of course I ordered it. Hands down one of the BEST I have had! my mom ordered the lemon chicken and I ordered Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo. Both were excellent dishes and packed with home made flavor. I will for sure be going back to try more dishes and for more French onion!!“
