Calamari was the best I've had,it was a show stopper. Frog legs could've been more on the firm side. Mashed potatoes were good but they need a better gravy. Back room was nice and quiet . Had a good night overall.

Always wanted to go here. Quaint atmosphere and our waitress was great! Friendly, thorough, fun, and made us feel very welcomed. Very disappointed in the food. Frog legs were over battered and rubbery. The chicken Marsala was “just ok”. After anticipating a tasty meal, we were disappointed. Sadly, we most likely won’t be back.

We love Luigi’s but the quality is not the same as it used to be. $30 for a little more than 4oz of chicken piccata. Sauce was way too sour. We used to be able to justify the price with the quality of food, but not anymore.

This is by far our favorite restaurant. Every dish was absolutely exceptional from start to finish. The escargot was rich, buttery, and perfectly seasoned, with garlic and herbs that soaked beautifully into the tender bites. The mushroom risotto with shrimp was creamy and indulgent, balanced by earthy mushrooms and plump, perfectly cooked shrimp that added just the right touch of sweetness.
The filet with crab legs was the true showstopper—an incredibly tender, flavorful steak paired with sweet, succulent crab that elevated the dish to pure luxury. For dessert, the triple chocolate cake was decadent without being overwhelming, deeply chocolatey and moist in every bite. The tiramisu was light, creamy, and perfectly balanced, with bold espresso flavor and just enough sweetness to end the meal on a high note.
Overall, an unforgettable dining experience as usual with expertly prepared dishes that felt both comforting and delicious. Along with a cozy, romantic and friendly atmosphere.

Smaller place with the warm, family like feel. Our server, Angelina, was very on top of everything, even went so far as taking a birthday cake, which we brought in, and took the cake in back, sliced it for us and passed out the pieces to everyone in our party. She went well above standard service im my opinion. The food was really good, just a little high in price but thats everywhere now. I did not get them, but 2 people in our party did, and they highly recomend the lamb chops. Maybe this is not important to most, but the bread in the bread baskets are top notch!. We will go back again someday.

Best Italian food around! We have mostly done carry-out here, due to the hours and our schedule. All food we have had here has been amazing! Any meal can feed 2ppl. The pizza! Yummy! Get the Luigi's special! They are always on point. My favorite dish might be the chicken Neopolitan. Any pasta dish 👌🏼. So so good.

First 5stars:Gluten free cauliflower pasta
Which is the best GF pasta noodles we have ever had. Pizza with yummy cups of pepperoni. Lasagna 4stars
It had been many years since I had dined here. It is kind of in a corner of my area we just don’t get to for some reason. One night we couldn’t decide where we wanted to dine and we all said hey let’s go to Luigi‘s. Our first visit was amazing when it came to the fettuccine Alfredo with cauliflower noodles. The Alfredo sauce was absolutely delicious and tasty. The bread basket was amazing with little homemade bread rolls. The spaghetti with meat sauce and meatball was just disappointing and uneventful . More and more we are finding many of the Italian restaurants we go to have spaghetti and meat sauce that is just not what it used to be. It didn’t have any garlic flavor, was very heavy tomato based VERY acidic and the meatball was again just OK. Lasagna was delicious. I asked to add Alfredo sauce on top ,one of my favorite things to do when it comes to lasagna.
We returned for a birthday dinner probably just four or five weeks later. Basically we all ordered the same items except for the lasagna. I went for the pizza which was very very very good.
The Alfredo with gluten-free noodles were not very good this time. There was so much parsley in it. All you could taste was a dry green flavor, it did not have a great Parmesan flavor, and there was no garlic that we could taste. The chicken was OK. The spaghetti with meat sauce and meatballs I can only explain as being subpar. This time it did taste like tomato paste diluted with tomato sauce, and it was actually the same thickness and flavor of the minestrone soup with very
Little meat . The meatball again was just OK. We could pour the liquid sauce off of the plate. Noodles appeared to be drained, it just seemed like the sauce was extremely thin with minimal meat and just minimal flavor.
Really not sure if we would return. Inside is a little dated, however well maintained and clean. Our first time dining here we had great service. This second visit, again our server was subpar. When they serve pizza, they put a piece on your plate and serve that to you and then bring the whole pizza to the table. The waitress asked if we wanted Romano cheese on on the food and I said sure. She failed to put Romano cheese on the piece of pizza she herself served to me on a plate. I did not say anything ,and it could have been
Me but the two people at the table felt the same way I did, our server just didn’t seem invested in our dining experience. We did let our server know about our disappointment with the spaghetti and Alfredo dish. A manager never came to speak with us, they never offered to take anything off of the bill considering my son didn’t even eat his spaghetti with meat sauce(where was the meat actually there was not much that could be located). And , the waitress could see how much parsley was in the fettuccine Alfredo. She did ask if they could remake our meals, but we are not very comfortable with sending our meals back to be remade. Removing the spaghetti with meat sauce would’ve truly been an appropriate move. We did not expect that two whole meals would be removed from the bill being my partner was so hungry he went ahead and ate his birthday dinner ,fettuccine Alfredo.
