Patio is beautiful!
Rooftop dinner was amazing! So nice! Haley was the best, she had the best recommendations, thank you Haley for the lemon bucati it was to die for, yum! And the desert was so good!
Amazing place
Danny was the best! Made our dinner the great. Wonderful recommendations and the food was amazing and so was the view. Would come back every time if he was our server.
First time here in about a decade and unfortunately felt let down - the food was middling at best. We ordered the speidini (big loaf of fried mozzarella) that was far too much for two - the sauce was intensely salty and since the item was served on it, it was in every bite. The lasagna I had was decent but basically collapsed on the plate, and not very flavorful. My date’s angel hair was lighter, and he enjoyed it, but again light on flavors. The meatballs we ordered on the side were the biggest disappointment - basically just ground beef in sauce. Needed more of everything. Our server was lovely and moderately attentive. The atmosphere is exactly like cossetta downstairs - wood paneled, loud but manageable, pleasant but not remarkable. For a $130 dinner, we left feeling that we wouldn’t be back.
Absolutely amazing!!
Everything is great about this place.
Everything was perfect from the service to the food. The manager Brian is very accommodating and gracious.

RUN - don’t walk to this place! We are visiting St. Paul and this is one of theee best Italian restaurants we have ever been to (and we have some experience in this kitchen!) Everything was just phenomenal- Highlights: The Braciole app is probably the best we have ever had. The Misticanza salad was light and lovely- Both the Arrabiatta(added sausage) and the Pacchari Pesto w/shrimp mains were to die for! And For dessert the Budino! Service was perfectly attentive and the ambience - was delightful! We will 100% be back if we are in the area

Ate at Louis a few weeks ago. Overall, it left a bit to be desired:
Service:
Not sure if our server was having a bad day or what, but he was very confrontational. When ordering drinks, I asked for an appetizer to which he told me "I am taking drinks now, not food". Okay, no problem. However the sass continued throughout the meal. At the end, one of my group was trying to cash out to which he responded "I am NOT a cash register, don't know what you want from me". Again, we were respectful and polite, but the service didn't really make us feel welcomed.
Food: I felt the food was expensive in relation to portion sizes. It was also very, very salty. I ordered the chicken parmigiana, the salt literally overpowered the meal. Also, I got four noodles with the meal so I had to order ANOTHER pasta meal just to have enough noodles.
Atmosphere: Trendy spot, mixture of old Italia with some modern accents. Parking was a breeze due to the on-site parking options. Went to the bottom floor to their desserts, which were amazing and fresh from the bakery.
Overall, despite the bakery I won't be returning. Overpriced, too salty and questionable customer service.

This was my first time dining here. With the suggestion of some friends, we dined on the rooftop patio. The server and food were below average. I didn’t have high expectations after reading the reviews prior to dining. Unfortunately the experience was what I had read, poor service and food. I had my food sent back as it was not edible. The shrimp pasta tasted like something from a can that was reheated. The shrimp was very fishy and the noodles had a gummy texture with a tomato sauce that was way too thick like paste. I would not return.

We had a wonderful dinner outside on the upstairs patio Friday evening August 9. Our server was new, but she did an excellent job and was very attentive but not intrusive. We were able to taste test the wine before purchase. We had the Stromboli appetizer (yum) followed by Chicken Parm for the husband and Rigatoni with sausage for me. Both were very good. Plus there was coffee and dessert to wrap up the evening. We did not feel rushed to finish and we even lingered a bit to enjoy the breeze and cool night air. Overall a very good evening. We would recommend this restaurant plus the Gelato downstairs in Cossetta's.
