Definite must do for our family!“

Served with peppers and onions with a light marinara. Menu says “spicy”; they are medium hot but amazing flavor Artichoke The couple with us ordered these ?breadcrumb” battered and fried portion. Also sauced in hous made marinara. Entrees ordered: chicken parm, spaghetti marinara, scallops and pasta. All were tremendous!

Very dangerous 😉! You will get hooked!! We will be back!“

“If I could give a higher rating than 5 stars I would. Ross and Mike were absolutely AMAZING to work with for our event. We had our Grand Opening at Skyline on Stokes and we had less than 4 weeks to put this together. Ross was so accommodating and was able to work it into their schedule even though they had already had another event that day. The customer service from the Staff was EXCEPTIONAL, the food was fantastic as well as the set up in the room, the drinks were amazing. They were able to accommodate specialty drinks that we requested and helped give us the ideas for and there was another full bar outside. They were able to provide a full execution of everything we asked for in such a little time frame. Thank you Ross and Mike for making the night a success! We will recommend your services to anyone and we hope to do business with you again. Thank you“

“Staff was nice, food was delicious and food was fast. The best place I’ve eaten in awhile!“

“This is our new favorite restaurant after having driven by it for over for ten years and only today finally taking the plunge (you simply must get a reservation except on the most dull weeknights)!

The recipes are stunningly good and their execution is simply top-rate. The table service was excellent, very professionally done! The environment is great too! the desserts are superbly executed as well, to include the house-made gelato!

The only thing anyone could honestly complain about is the cost: it’s expensive, but everything of highest quality is, so the value is still very high in our opinion.

We won’t be eating here too often, but it is now squarely our favorite restaurant in northeastern Ohio!“

“Great meal“

“I’d like to keep this the best kept secret, but the tomahawk veal Marsala is, hands down, the finest meal I have ever eaten on Cleveland! Combine this with a cozy atmosphere, a friendly and efficient staff, and there’s no need to go anywhere else for an incredible meal!“

“We had Mario cater our small wedding last week. He went above and beyond to make the our guests happy with his delicious food! All of our guests raved about the dinner provided for them. Many said it was the best food they have had at a wedding. Mario gave us exactly what we asked for and elevated his food with the love he has for cooking. I HIGHLY recommend Mario as he is top notch and was worth every penny. Thanks for making our day even more special!!!🤩❤“

“We got take out tonight for the first time and it was excellent!!! The Brussel Sprouts were out of this world delicious and the salads were big and delicious! I can’t wait to eat more of this food!“

“It never fails, we always have a nice meal at D'Agnese's. The food, as usual, was delicious. Our server, Toni, was really top-notch in all respects. It is truly one of our favorite restaurants in the area. We will be back soon! “

“As always, food was stellar. Apps were great, bread was excellent, dinner were great.“

“Pizza was ok nothing that made me say oooh delicious sauce was flavorless (took a bite with no pepperoni), pepperoni over powering that couldn't even taste the sausage and greasy. The mozzarella too expensive and cold, I live 2min away if that so it wasn't the drive time.“

“Great food, great service and great knowledge and communication from the server to the kitchen staff about which options are gluten free. Many places make you feel like a burden when questioning the menu due to your dietary needs. Everyone there made me feel they were happy to answer questions and address the issue. I cannot say enough good things about the experience.“

“Delicious unpretentious food and great staff!“

“New Favorite Italian Spot! We came here for my brother’s rehearsal dinner, and wow—Matteo’s absolutely blew us away! My husband and I loved everything we had: the lemon chicken was tender and flavorful, the Alfredo cavatelli was creamy perfection, and the sausage and meatballs were just incredible. Honestly, I can’t even pick a favorite—they were all that good. The bread and butter? Probably the best we’ve ever had. The cozy, old-town vibe of the location just added to the charm, and the service was top-notch. You can really feel the care and warmth of a true mom-and-pop Italian place. We’ve officially found our new go-to spot. If you’re a fan of Italian food and great hospitality, do yourself a favor and check out Matteo’s!“

“Delicious unpretentious food and great staff!“

“Brought my girlfriend and my two kids to eat here not long ago and it was much more than I expected from what I thought was a run of the mill location. We were greeted with a smile when we walked in, the food was delicious and the service was spot on.“

“Superb meal and great atmosphere. It was wonderful meeting Carmella and her niece for the first time. I really enjoyed our conversation. Looking forward to dining there again!“

“Stopped at the aloha pop up bar, was so cute. Food and drinks were good. Our waitress was new but did an amazing job,“

“Amazing food and staff!!! They go above and beyond for their guests! Beautiful and elegant atmosphere!“

“We recently had a wedding rehearsal dinner reserved at Aldo’s for about 25 attendees. The food was more than excellent and the service was wonderful. We had great communication and coordination with the owner and the event went very smoothly with quick service. We ended up going back a couple of days later for one more meal before leaving Cleveland. We will be back again the next time we are in the area.“

“I tried the Italian beef for the first time. Its delicious and huge. The bread looks like its homemade, some of the best I have ever had on a sandwich. I also ordered the onion rings and they were amazing. I want to come back and try the spicy sausage sandwich.“

“The best pizza. In a long time“

“Tripi Italian Market is an absolute gem in Cleveland! I can't recommend this place enough. The owner is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about what he does, and it really shows in the quality of their products.
Their wine selection is fantastic, and you can tell a lot of thought has gone into it. What's even better is that you can find some truly great bottles for amazing prices. It's the perfect spot to pick up a fantastic wine for any occasion without breaking the bank.
Whether you're looking for an incredible sandwich, some authentic Italian groceries, or a great bottle of wine, Tripi has you covered. Do yourself a favor and check them out!“

“Words cannot accurately explain how great our experience was tonight! I decided to celebrate my mom’s 78th birthday here due to the fact my mom loves Antonio’s pepperoni nuggets and she’s never been here before. We had 14 people in our party and Megan K. was an absolute rockstar! Everyone was so welcoming and gracious to my mom on her special day! Food was FANTASTIC!! Thank you all for a wonderful evening!“

“Nice atmosphere and clean. Excellent food and service. Thanks, Rachel, for the terrific service and warm smile.“

“Great and warm atmosphere , the staff are very friendly. The food never disappoints. Highly recommend going there or doing take out !“

“Food is excellent!! And our waitress was on the ball..great service!!“

“Stopped in at Olive Garden and had a great experience! The Italian Margarita was excellent — smooth, refreshing, and so good it could be dangerous if they served it by the pitcher. For dinner, I ordered the Shrimp and Chicken Carbonara, which was flavorful and hearty. The Chicken Gnocchi Soup hit the spot, and of course, you can’t go wrong with their classic salad and breadsticks. Everything came out fresh, the service was friendly, and I left full and happy. Definitely a solid visit!“

“Went there today with my husband and baby and we had the BEST time! The food, drinks, service, and atmosphere was amazing! Can’t wait to come back! ❤️“

“I feel they were short handed. We were seated timely and drink orders taken—30 minutes later dinner orders taken—a full 50 minutes for our meals and not one time did we see our server again. We were never offered refills for our drinks and those that had cocktails never had the option of a second. Our food arrived at luke warm to cold an hour after ordering (6 of us). No words when we left. I have been here many times so I dont know if this is new management or short handed but not what I expect from Stancatos.“

“First time there, can’t wait to return. Everyone was friendly, good service, great food reasonably priced. ?“

“Went for dinner after Confirmation. Service was excellent, food was great, and they were very accommodating. The only complaint I have is that we really could have used the elevator for a couple of elderly grandparents who had issues with the stairs. They said it was broken.“
