“Great pizza ! If you have been to other bigalora locations ( especially royal oak one ) this location would be a bit of a disappointment in terms of atmosphere. we tried the potato croquettes, they were amazing ..do not order the tiramisu, it was a letdown .. also, we went in with our baby - their sling was broken - so be careful !“

“Great pizza and it was so clean..“

“I like and recommend this place. I went here a few days ago and was going to get a whole pizza but I thought that might be a bit much just for me. So I asked the team member what might be a good choice for just me? He said I could try the Bread Bowl and they could put whatever toppings I wanted inside of it. So I ordered it with four toppings of my choice. With most businesses you associate it with a name. The owner runs the business, but the team members are the face of the business. Jay is the name I associate with Jets Pizza on Nine Mile road just off Telegraph road. He is the one who hooked me up. I fully enjoyed the orderJay suggested. Thanks Jay. Maybe the owner should do a TV commercial similar to the one like Jake from State Farm. How about Jay from Jets Pizza?! WANT A GREAT PIZZA GET IT FROM JETS!!!
Then they could have Jay from Jets appear out of thin air with a pizza, LOL. DISCLAIMER: I do not work for Jets Pizza and have not received any compensation for this review. But I wouldn't mind receiving compensation if Jets Pizza Corporation uses my idea. I'm just saying. Enjoy Jets Pizza.“

“I had such a great experience at Aurora, and Alana made it even better. She was so sweet, attentive, and welcoming from the moment we sat down. She checked on us at the perfect times, made sure everything came out right, and had such a positive attitude throughout the whole service. You can tell she really cares about her guests and takes pride in what she does. I would definitely come back and ask for Alana again!“

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

“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!“

“Amazing food! Staff is incredibly attentive and present to explain each dish! Minimalist and calming environment to enjoy a nice dinner without being overwhelmed as you might in a large restaurant.“

“what a wonderful experience we had at Cafe Cortina! from the complimentary valet, to the matre'd and all of the staff. The food was excellent, the ambiance perfect, and our guardian angel, Besnik, provided excellent suggestions all throughout the night! He never rushed us, and never hovered, he was just magically there whenever we needed anything. It was a perfect dinning expirence and we are grateful for it!“

“10/10 would recommend Giuliano’s. My 1st time there this evening & will definitely order again. Service was great, food was even better! 🇮🇹“

“Happy Hour !! Good and plentiful @ $7“

“Luigi's is such a wonderful Italian restaurant with amazing service and delicious food. The prices are very reasonable too. 💕

My husband's family have hosted both his aunt's surprise birthday party, and his grandma's birthday celebration there as private events. 🎂

Today, we had Nora as our waitress for my family of 14, and she was incredibly attentive, kind, and professional. Lexi, who has helped with serving and bartending at previous private events, was also so friendly and welcoming. She even remembered me when I stopped to say hello today. 😊

I would highly recommend Luigi's to anyone looking for a great date night spot or a venue for a private event. We will definitely be back for future family dinners and celebrations! ❤️“

We were a party of 6 and the restaurant was more than accommodating. Our service was extremely exceptional...Rebecca was so great she timed out the food and course perfectly.our glasses were always full and she brought out a complementary dessert with a candle that was much appreciated..thank you Rebecca for making our time so lovely!!!“

“Our dinner was amazing! We got there kind of late and Marija still gave us amazing service. We appreciate it & will be back!“

“My family and I had a lovely dinner here! Our server, SJ, was wonderful! The food was incredible! To start, the bread basket was delicious. I had the Spicy Rigatoni Polomino and it was very flavorful! I also had one of their specials, the zucchini soup, and it was great! I was very impressed with the little things such as filling our water glasses often, to wiping the crumbs off our table in between apps and the entrees. I would definitely recommend this restaurant, I loved it!“

“Antonio’s in Livonia was absolutely outstanding! The food was fresh, flavorful, and hands down one of the best dining experiences we’ve had in a long time. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming and the service was top notch.

A huge thank you to our waitress Michelle for being so attentive, friendly, and professional throughout the entire meal. She made sure everything was perfect and truly went above and beyond. Also, a special shoutout to Maria, the busser, who worked incredibly hard and kept everything spotless while always checking in with a smile.

It’s rare to find a restaurant where the food and service are both this exceptional. Antonio’s definitely earned a repeat customer. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a great meal and amazing staff!“

“Great thin pizza - cooked quickly in a wood fire oven - salad was very fresh“

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

“10/10!!!!! Someone clearly enjoyed their pasta! 🥰“

“the food tasted phenomenal!! the best Italian i’ve had! i can’t wait to return in the future.

the restaurant was beautiful, and just had the best feel inside and out. Our waitress was the cherry on top she was so helpful and very personable, I can’t remember her name but she had blonde hair and glasses!! 10/10“

“I absolutely love Cariera's! The food is always delicious, the staff is always so friendly, and the owners truly make you feel welcome from the moment you walk in.
If you're looking to host an event, or just going for a meal, you will not be disappointed!

I had my bridal shower here recently and have also attended another family event. Both were beautifully hosted. Everything was well organized, the service was excellent, and everyone had a lovely time.

I could not be more grateful for everyone at Cariera's!“

“I recommend going to see Stephanie. She was more than attentive we were never in need for anything! She gives a new meaning to service with a smile. My wife and I have been back many times just for her good cheer she seems to pass on to all around her! 5 stars for Stephanie and Como’s for having such a great staff!“

“I love this place. One of my favorites at all times. Best food, friendly staff and atmosphere is just perfect. 10/10“

“Amazing food, great prices, friendly staff, pretty much everything.“

“Our experience at Stella’s was simply outstanding — Kaitlyn provided some of the warmest, most attentive service we’ve ever had at a restaurant, checking in at all the right moments without ever feeling intrusive. Every dish we ordered was phenomenal: the steak bites were perfectly seared and melted in your mouth, the vodka penne pasta was rich and beautifully balanced, the chicken masala had incredible depth of flavor, and the spaghetti carbonara was silky, indulgent perfection. The only small suggestion I’d offer is to swap the table black pepper for a pepper mill so guests can enjoy fresh cracked pepper — a tiny touch that would elevate an already exceptional dining experience. We’ll absolutely be back, and we’ll be asking for Kaitlyn!“

“Tonight I attended a wedding at C & G and could not be more impressed, and also pissed at myself for not patronizing this welcoming restaurant sooner. I’m lactose intolerant and allergic to chicken. The staff was incredibly accommodating and gracious. This is not often a feeling I receive when bringing up food allergies. The food & drinks were so incredibly tasty and the views were unreal. The Train station, spires of St Anne’s and the Ambassador Bridge all in one shot. Turn to the left and you have the beautifully landscaped Roosevelt park to stroll through after enjoying the back porch. I’m so blown away, and so happy my friend finally got me here! Thank you for a dreamy night.“

“The best Greek salad! And best pizza in Birmingham!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼“

“Everything at this Olive Garden was delicious and well presented it. Just got weird when we asked for more bread and the white girl with henna on her hands brought us one breadstick. One. Our second basket for a party of three came down the line with one stick.“

“Wonderfully quaint and charming little place! Food was excellent and so was the service! Highly recommend! Don't leave without trying the limoncello! 😋“

“Amazing food and the nicest people!“

“Great food! Fast service. The cheesy bread was delicious“

“What a great dining experience here at Belle Limone! The experience kicked off with the staff kindly suggesting where my fiancée and I should park for the best prices as we were out of town. From there, we got to walk up to the restaurant which was so authentic, aesthetic and historic. The food was to die for, every dish was full of flavour! The staff were amazing as well as our waitress was so attentive, friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend this place!“

“I had the Chicken Athena tonight. Outstanding! Fresh ingredients including fresh olives, and chicken. You could pay 2-3 times more at other restaurants, and not nearly as good as Christine's. This place is a real find!“

“Excellent pizza. I ordered the Pepperoni Margherita well done, definitely one of the best pizza’s I ever had. The steak tips were also great. I also highly recommend the cherry oatmeal cookie.“

“Absolutely the best most amazing place I’ve ever eaten. not only is every single thing I’ve eaten here delicious, but the service is 100/10.

Me and my sister come here every single week, multiple times. ( we gained most our pregnancy weight here hehe ) if it wasn’t for this place I wouldn’t have had a nice balanced diet and properly gained the weight I needed because I struggle eating pregnant.

My sister just had her baby we even came here right before she went to the hospital for a final meal before labor 😂 we missed out on a few weeks but just came back yesterday. We couldn’t stay away for the food is always a huge craved obsession.

My daughter loves it too 😂🙆🏼‍♀️

Krista, and the chef Franco have become such wonderful parts of our enjoyment here, always check in on us, how we’re doing, and remember the smallest details. We’re always excited to see them, my daughter gets overly joyed and calls them besty😂❤️. Definitely Can’t forget how amazing and sweet Yvonne, Nicole and the manager Chris is too. Never a bad time with any of them, always such good conversations. They’re all such a breath of fresh air and make the meal even more spectacular.

If you haven’t been here yet, definitely stop by ❤️ you will be in for such a treat.

Pricing isn’t bad, quick service, Happy atmosphere, good music

My mother even said she’s been coming here for years too and everything on the menu has always topped anything she’s had at any other place.

Don’t miss out 🥳“

“I order a pizza a week from Zino's and have been coming here for 8 years, so--yep--over 400 pizzas! And not a bad slice among them! Seriously good pizza made just the way you like it with great crust and generous toppings. Friendly owner and staff, as well. Highly recommended!“

“My fiancée and I had a really lovely Valentine’s dinner at Romolo. The interior was cozy, especially with the soft lighting and local art along the interior. It was lively for the holiday, but not cramped.
We started with drinks and the Fritto Misto(not pictured) which was excellent. I had the Rigatoni Lucanica for my entree. The sauce and fennel sausage had a nice heat to them from the banana peppers. It was unique compared to most Italian pasta dishes. My fiancée had the Costolette D’Angnello, which was on a whole other level. The lamb was cooked perfectly at medium rare, very tender and not gamey in the least. The polenta and greens were savory, as well.
They had a special dessert for the evening, Spumoni gelato covered in dark chocolate and pistachio crumbs. The appetizer and entree portions were generous, but we couldn’t say no to such a tempting dessert. The service was warm and attentive from all staff. We’d love to come back and try the pizza next time. Thank you for such a memorable evening!“

“Worked late tonight and didn’t want a pizza. Bought a Jetzie. Wonderful. I’ve got a new favorite.“

“The Warren location had fast, hot delivery, tonight! Yum!! So excited to finally see a hometown (Toledo) staple in my neck of the woods!“
