We will miss you guys so much at the Forest City location! This county can’t afford or appreciate your amazing food. We wish you all the best. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ -Leigha and Josh
Love the food, love the people, and the atmosphere!
The absolute worst service I have ever received at a restaurant. We waited over an hour and a half and had to leave with 3 starving toddlers without receiving our food. We were told the delay was because they had To boil water for fettuccine. An hour and a half to boil some water. The waitress told us there was no bread for our little ones as the other waitresses paraded bread around. 1 star is too many for this place. Do yourself a favor and skip this place.
Everything was great! The server singing happy birthday personally to the table next to me was sweet.
Recently had Babbo's cater a large Christmas Party... they did an excellent job! Everyone loved the food.
Where do I start? The service, the atmosphere and the food are *chefs kiss*. First, you get fresh baked bread which is hot and garlicky and perfect. We got the mozzarella fritte and I just can’t believe how FRESH everything tastes here! Is this what real food is like? I’m so used to microwaved stuff from Olive Garden and Applebees that this… it’s unspeakably good. The value is amazing. The prices are reasonable and the portions are generous. I got the tortellini soup and margherita chicken pesto pasta. Look, I don’t even like sausage and that sausage in that soup was SO GOOD. Everything was so fresh, hot and tasty. Do yourself a favor and get the Caesar salad. It’s honestly the best Caesar dressing I’ve ever had in my life. You can taste all the different flavors in it. I can’t say enough good things about Babbo. We’ll definitely be back. I’ve worked in restaurants for a long time and you can tell the staff work well together as a team, which means it’s great leadership as well. 10/10 would recommend. Come here, you won’t regret it!
Well worth the drive for Italian.
Absolutely outstanding! Not one single complaint! Everything was way beyond our expectations! Best Italian food we have ever had! You could tell everything was fresh and made with so much love! Now our Forever go to date night spot! We got the Bruschetta, fettuccine Alfredo and the Ziti and everything was perfect! So much flavor! Truly took us somewhere else, didn’t even feel like we were in Rutherford county! We both agree this is the best restaurant in the whole county! Portions were large! We both took home a Togo box and looked forward to eating it again for another meal! We can’t rave enough about Babbo’s!! We can’t wait for our next date night to try something different on the menu!

I love the patio dining. The cuisine is delightful. Panini sandwiches are just the right size. Servers were a little overwhelmed but recovered nicely and acknowledged the issue. Overall a wonderful experience.
