Il Limone Restaurant Pizzeria

We were recommended tourist restaurant by a friend of my that came here before. She had so many good things to say about it as the owner is an Italian. We were really excited to come, our Caesar salad and calamari was good. However, my shrimp can be came out with five pieces of shrimp,
The shrimp itself is really good and fresh, the pasta and the sauce was totally off. I have never had a shrimp scampi that is super sour. Shrimp scampi has not tasted sour at all anywhere else I’ve eaten at my whole life, so it caught me off guard, and to be that sour is not right to me.
My husband ordered chicken cordon bleu, we always have our chicken breast stuffed with cheese and ham, and then bread it and fried or bake. We cook chicken cordon bleu like that at home as well, so that’s what we expected, the description in the menu is just like that too. But when it came out the chicken is folded with a thin piece of ham, there’s no cheese and there’s no bread crumbs outside whatsoever. They says there are mushrooms in the sauce but it was all over the pasta. We informed our server and she looked shock, then took our food, she came back with a check that she didn’t charge for my husband’s food, then quickly walked away, never once apologized or seem like she’s sorry for it. Just super nonchalant about it. Unfortunately we won’t be back

Tortellini soup was inedible because of so much red pepper flakes. Lemon cake was paid for and not in take out order. When I called to inform them, I was hung up on.

The wait staff was amazing - took care of us, very well, made us feel welcome. The food was amazing, by far the best meal I've had in a while. The only reason I gave the atmosphere 4 stars was because the place is small and they were fitting everyone in, no big issues, just a little cramped!

Shrimp fra diavolo was extremely fishy. Its like they boiled the pasta with dirty fish tank water. I can only handle two bites, and I had to set the dish aside. Service wasn't good. Server never came back to ask how the meals were. At the end of the meal the server just packed my entire fra diavolo dish for me to take home. The server still didn't ask me the reason why it was basically untouched.

Updated: Made another trip across town based on my last visit/ 5 star review. Walked in at 715ish on Friday and it didn’t seem busy. Less than half the seats filled. I was greeted with an eye roll/attitude and was seated in an area I wasn’t comfortable with. When I asked for a different table was told no. Didn’t make sense being that it was half empty. Poor service and attitude so me and my family walked out. How disappointing.

Previous Review:

So glad we decided to pop in for a last minute family dinner. We are not on that part of town often but in the past we have ordered pizza from here and it was always excellent. This time we decided to dine in for dinner. This specials were excellent and a great overall options on the regular menu. I got the seafood special with homemade pasta in a white sauce that was delicious, my wife the shrimp fra diavolo that was spicy and great flavors, the kids had a pizza and spaghetti/meatballs that’s were gigantic and excellent. We had apps, desserts as well. Service was excellent and on point. Overall great place! Definitely worth the drive across town! We will be more regulars for sure.

Absolutely fantastic! Our server was Alexis R and she was wonderful. Dinner with 15 family members with lots of laughter, delicious food, great service and attention to detail given to us by Alexis. Highly recommend. The menu is extensive and everyone said their meal was delicious. If back in Liverpool....will make this a must stop. Thank you Alexis.

When you ordered the chicken wings, it was stale and it was very rancid. The pizza was very good. It was embarrassing.
