“Domenick & John—

We stopped in for a late breakfast/early lunch today, and it reminded us why we keep coming back. The food was wonderful, but what truly stood out was the staff. Every single person was warm, welcoming, and genuinely friendly—not just to us, but to everyone who walked through the door. It's rare to see a team that consistently makes every guest feel so appreciated.

We've visited many times for coffee and takeout, but after dining in today, we felt it was important to let the owners know what an exceptional team they have. Great service like this deserves to be recognized.

We will definitely be at a future dinner pop-up!

Thank you for creating such a welcoming place. It's businesses like this that keep people coming back, and we'll definitely continue to be regulars.

“We have been to Made in Italy many times during all of the ownership changes. We have been for dinner, had graduation parties and gone for dessert only. We were so happy to hear that it was open at night again. My husband recently had knee replacement and was itching to get out. We decided to go for coffee/dessert at Made in Italy. He struggled to get in the car and out when we arrived. It was 8:30 Saturday night when they close at 10. There were over 15 tables open - we asked to be seated for coffee and dessert only to be told they don’t do that. They wouldn’t seat us - they gave us their card and told us to check the menu when we got home- which we did. The second paragraph of the website says - stop by just to have a cup of our gourmet coffee. They had many tables open and preferred to turn us away. Needless to say - we will not be going back.“

“Today I came in and ordered a simple small coffee, and usually I just grab and go. But I was met with a beautiful smile and great conversation by Egypt. I haven’t had the experience I had today in awhile. You can tell she’s amazing by showing much care with the drinks and customer service. It was like talking to a friend instead of a stranger. Def will be coming back just to hopefully see her again!“

“Great food, friendly people“

“I had a wonderful experience! The food was absolutely delicious, with generous portions and great prices that make it an excellent value. The staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive throughout my visit. To top it all off, the desserts were amazing and the perfect way to finish the meal. It's not easy to find a place that combines great food, affordable prices, and outstanding customer service, but this place does it all. I highly recommend it and will definitely be returning!“

“my bestie and I like to search for new places to eat. THIS place is now on our fav list! the food is astounding, the fresh carrot juice i had was delicious. The owner is warm and a delight! may he flourish here because this is going to be a repeat spot for us!“
