We had a great meal at Biagio's Bistro last night. The portions were very large and the food was served hot. It was a very nice atmosphere for a Saturday night. We will return.

Wonderful homemade pasta dishes. In a cozy dining room. Watch as biagio cooks in the open kitchen. Terrific desserts as well

We ate here on the request of my son who lives right up the street. We don't live in Cincinnati and actually went back just to have this food again. I must say when I ordered I was skeptical, the menu didn't give me what I wanted. I am glad I got past that because everyone's food was incredible. Totally not a chain and totally unlike any other Italian food I have had recently . Very nice surprise

This was a fantastic little bistro we found in the Ludlow region of Cincinnati. While they have a more elaborate dinner menu we were there for lunch and while the menu is smaller there are still plenty of great options. We started with an appetizer of Artichoke Dip. It artichokes blended with garlic and topped with parmesan cheese. It is baked and served with pita pieces. It was one my favourite dips of it's kind that I've ever had and was a super delicious appetizer. For my main course I tried their Chicken Alfredo which was a basic version with fettuccine, chicken, with the cream sauce and of course topped with Parm. A very good version of Alfredo that was fairly easy on the wallet too. The restaurant was very spiffy looking; kind of smallish but very classy. Our service was excellent and when you put it all together it was a tremendous visit.

The ambiance and location of Biagio’s is great. The tomato basil soup is delicious and creamy, almost too decadent for the large portion size that comes with the pasta. The tiramisu and cannoli are also quite good. The pasta, however, leaves a lot to be desired. While the portion sizes are a good size for the price, the preparation and recipes just aren’t very good to my taste. The Alfredo sauce has been extremely garlicky the three times I’ve had it, overpowering any cheesy or creamy flavors. The fettuccine noodles are quite overcooked for my taste, both when had in restaurant and to go, slightly mushy, certainly not al dente. The bread is the greatest disappointment, a weak crust, slightly too dry crumb, and flavorless. I wish the bread could stand on its own and not just as a delivery tool for the soup.

This restaurant is something straight out of Chef Gordon Ramsays Kitchen Nightmares. Overall an alright place, staff was nice and quick. House wine and soup were pretty good. But the pasta had no flavor, noodles overcooked, pesto was bland. Have had better pasta at Olive Garden.

Quaint space with friendly staff. Plentiful portions and homemade-tasting pasta. The artichoke dip was unreal, though a couple pasta dishes were a little shy on overall flavor.

Lasagna (available on Fridays, not sure about other days) was delicious, cream of tomato soup was very tasty also. Chicken Alfredo was very good too.

Food was incredible. Had the Shrimp Fettuccini but started with the Italian Wedding Soup. I love Italian wedding soup and this was one of the best ones I've ever had. The service was extremely attentive and personable. The restaurant was quiet and a good temperature. Amazing experience!

I used Yelp to find an Italian restaurant that I hadn't been to before, and I certainly agree with the numerous 5-star reviews. We chose to sit in the booth at the front, but there are two dining rooms, as well as high tops that look into the open kitchen, where the magic happens. We both started with a nice Caesar salad, although garlic croutons would have been a welcome replacement for the plain dried bread cubes. They were nicely crunchy, though. A plate of chewy Italian bread with butter (nicely soft) accompanied the meal. My date had fettuccine Alfredo with chicken, with a cream-heavy sauce. I had the chicken scaloppini, which was nicely poached in a mushroom white wine sauce, served over fettuccine (homemade). We both took some home, so she could have crème brûlée, and I had limoncello torte. Both of us were happy with our choices from the well-stocked dessert cooler.

Great food & dining environment. I came here with my wife and some friends for a birthday dinner and have been back multiple times since. Highly recommend the Pesto Pasta and Penne Boscaiola. The service has been hit or miss, but nothing terrible when it missed.
