The food and service were great. We've lived here for seven years and didn't know this plate existed but we're so glad we found it. The food was all excellent and our server was funny and attentive. We can't wait to go back!

The food was terrible. We ordered the breadsticks, undercooked. The chicken Alfredo sauce was not fresh, tasted like jar stuff. The tiramisu was gummy and a horrible texture. There is literally a sign on the table that says tell us if your food isn’t good. I felt bad, not the servers fault, so I didn’t say anything. He did notice we didn’t eat any of the Tiramisu and took it off the bill. Olive garden is better than this place and that’s not saying much. Save your money and pick another spot!

Delicious Food, Amusing decor (The GodFather) Everything is a la cart. Smaller menu and since we tasted both the red sauce and alfredo sauce with a breadstick appetizer, I would like to see more red sauce options. It's so good! Very Good, we will be back!

This was our first time here. We ordered the steak Alfredo, shrimp Alfredo and the breadsticks with meat sauce. It was sooo delicious! They weren’t stingy on the Alfredo sauce too like most other places. The steaks were cooked perfectly to our liking and the shrimp was seasoned so well, every bite was a burst of flavor. I loved it! And the breadsticks is to die for! It’s more like a flaky breadsticks that doesn’t leave you too full before your food comes. It was perfect. Will definitely go back!

Very nice people. Good service. Limited menu, but everything we ate was good. The Godfather playing the TV and the player piano with "Jonny" the mannequin we're cool touches. Will be back.

This place has great food! No complaints about the food. Service was ok. We had a reservation for 7 at 6:45. They acted like they didn't have our reservation and finally seated us at 7:30. Server was ok, not the greatest. We were celebrating 2 birthdays that evening. We got dessert for them. They charged us. Typically dessert is free for birthdays or maybe they could of taken care of it since we got sat so late but whatever. One of my friends mentioned that but the server was just like sorry and acted like he didn't care. Food was great but will not be going back because of that experience.

The food was outstanding! A quiet and quaint small Italian restaurant with great ambiance. A player piano plays very quietly and it was easy to converse with companions. The spaghetti sauce was the best I've ever tasted, shrimp scampi and chicken Alfredo were delicious. We all agreed to comeback next week and order a new dinner. Don't miss out on this gem in Anoka!

This is the 3rd year we have gone to Barzini's for our anniversary. The food is always hot and delicious. The ambiance is perfect. Not fancy but cozy and we love the Godfather theme. The breadsticks melt in your mouth! Looking forward to next year!

It's a small place, maybe ten tables? Not a typical American style Italian restaurant. On Main Street, tucked into a larger building, with an adjacent parking lot (free). Don't blink, you might miss it. It reminded us of something like you'd find in a small European town. Service was attentive and food arrived in a timely fashion. Our Friday reservations were for 5:30pm, and by 6:30 the place was full. I suggest reservations, especially on the weekend. The menu is small but has good variety. I had the Steak Alfredo Corleone with a small side salad, and my wife had Vitalli's Shrimp Scampi, and Tiramisu . Everything was very good and the portions were generous. Prices were reasonable. Although there is a piano player (you're going to love him) the sound level is low. You will not have a problem talking/hearing at the table. He played the entire time we were there.

Valentines Dinner... We were hoping for a more upscale restaurant so perhaps our expectations were too high. Nice Italian-themed ambiance. A bit too dark though. Servers were friendly. To say the food was par is a stretch. Very basic flavors, nothing to wow a foodies taste buds. Overpriced for what you get. Plastic drink cups and elementary school flatware cheapens the experience. No bar here, just a few wine selections. Unfortunately, we would not recommend to those with a more distinguished palate.

I have now dined at Barzini's twice and EACH time has been an amazing experience!! The food is Super high quality and absolutely delicious!! Everything we ordered was good. The servers and staff are awesome as well...very attentive and super friendly. I give Barzini's a super enthusiastic 5 Stars!! Would really recommend dining here, if you love Italian cuisine and The Godfather you're guaranteed to LOVE it!

We had breadsticks with marinara (very light and delicious and meat sauce marinara was delicious as well) had the shrimp Alfredo (excellent) and terimasu for dessert . Very reasonable. Definitely will be back!
