“Went last night to celebrate birthday with a friend. Was surprised with live music, lovely and cozy place, we had excellent service. Food was fantastic, reminded me of being in Italy. Did not go wrong getting Ms. Mary's salad and Elfo's special. will return.“

“Great food and service ! My fav is the baked spaghetti and breadsticks ! Hot cheesy goodness with awesome meat sauce and the hot buttery breadsticks are hard to beat ! The prices are very reasonable , you can feed the whole family and not break the bank ! The employees are always helpful and friendly! The manager there Ms Lannom checks on her customers too and makes sure everything is good ! The restaurant is clean and the A/C is nice and cool ! lol We will be back soon !!“

“Every detail about this place was outstanding. Our waiter, Blaze, gave us excellent suggestions: we tried the Pinnelli pasta, lasagna, garlic knots, veggie pizza, Caesar salad, and tiramisu. Delicious food, excellent service, great atmosphere. I only wish we lived closer so we could eat here regularly. We will return the next time we are in the area.“

“Decided to try to eat here again. Everyone ignored us and would’ve left except bartender amy noticed and invited us to sit at bar. Don’t eat in dining room bc service is so slow. If you’re craving Olive Garden sit at the bar believe me“

“Love the pizza at this location. It doesn’t matter what time it is you can walk in and order whatever slice of pizza you want without having to order an entire pizza. They always have the toppings that I want and the pizza always tastes great! Wish this location was closer to us. They are very costumer oriented!!!“

“Absolutely love this place. Craved their garlic fries coming out of a root canal. Ready within 15 minutes. Girl at the counter was so sweet and gave me more of their ranch. Don't know what they put in these things but its fantastic. Please never change the garlic fries.“

“Our waitress Maddie was spectacular! Definitely made our anniversary night. We got the ricotta cheesecake that was beautiful and even said Happy Anniversary on it. Can’t wait to be back, thanks!“

“Very impressed with our decision to get the seafood pasta and the Fess Parker Riesling. Sat at the bar and bartender was attentive to us. I will admit I was quite taken aback by the $12.50 surcharge to have our entree and salad split between my mom and I. Did the research to confirm whether this was standard surcharge pricing to split food items and it was above the average price for this.“

“Excellent customer service, delicious food and reasonable prices!!“

“If you go to Olive Garden ask for Reese, he was the best! Very attentive, made sure everything was taken care of at all times, and the food was great! The manager came to check on us, didn’t catch his name but he was very sweet and attentive to us and all tables. We had two birthdays with us and many of the servers sang happy birthday to us. Overall very good experience and will be back.“

“We have been going here for years and the food and service was starting to decline over the last year. We went again last week and everything had improved tremendously. Apparently new members of the original family took it over and everything was really good again. The food was excellent as was the service. The atmosphere was much brighter as well. We are going again tonight.“

“I’ve picked food up and had it delivered, and everything was fantastic both times. I’ve already referred several friends and hope to join them there to dine-in soon. If you haven’t been yet, I encourage you to give them a try.“

“This is one of Memphis‘s finest restaurants, very, very very highly recommended“

“Love this place! Be prepared to wait for table, it is always busy. The Al Capone sandwich is my favorite“

“great food,really good drinks,“

“The pizza has been a hit and miss lately. Just a lil seasoning on that meat or sauce will do!!! However the Salads are excellent every thing was fresh and delicious . I paid for extra and they gave extra… Salads are the best in town with a decent price.“
