This is our good to Italian restaurant in NEO. Great staff and even better is the good. Always fresh and tasty. Great wine selection, as it also has a great wine store.

We placed a take out today. I had the crab cakes and my husband had the chicken Marsala. Both were excellent. We are going to make it a plan to order once a week and try other things. It was wonderful

Went to Molinari’s for the first time Saturday night for dinner. Was seated promptly and the waitress took our drink order. We ordered a bottle of wine that she promptly came back and said they were out of that wine. Supposedly they pride themselves on their “wine store”. We had to scramble to change our drink order. Said she had to go take of other people and finally came back only to go through a monotone verbal list of their specials. They had to number about 25! Why not just put them on a list and include them with the menu? By the time she got done naming each one, I was about ready to go to sleep! Our dinner was pretty good, yet pricey for pasta. Don’t plan on going back!!!

Nice atmosphere for a special occasion in spite of the strip mall location (so try to not get a window seat or the car lights from the cars coming in and out of their parking spots shine a spotlight on you). Food is good though fancy expensive but not excessively. Service is good too. We'll be back. You can probably get away with jeans but you'll feel more comfortable stepping it up a notch. Reservations are nice (which we had and they seated us right away) but it wasn't too crowded so you might be able to walk in especially later in the evening.

We were here for 3 hours for our dinner reservations. Shrimp appetizer came out twice burnt. The filet was tough and tasted burnt. Nothing was right About this visit. And we were here 3 hours start to finish. No visit from manager.

We love supporting our locally owned restaurants! We’ve had our holiday gathering there for several years and each year it grows - great food and incredible service! Thank you Randal and staff!

I had dinner with my girlfriend and thought the food was mediocre. I had scallops with risotto. It wasn’t close what I expected from a $35 entree. When we got the bill, we were overcharged $4 for the bottle of wine. When we brought it up to the waitress, she went to the manager to correct it. When the bill wasn’t corrected, we talked directly to the manager. He stated that the prices weren’t corrected on the price list and then half heartedly offered to fix our bill. What a terrible experience. High prices for mediocre food and being overcharged. We’re never going back.

The filet is always cooked perfectly. Love hearing the specialist l specials even if we came in with our minds made up.

Great Italian traditional dishes in a fine dining atmosphere also has other unique dishes great table service and extensive retail wine available at a reasonable price. Would recommend this place for special events and celebration. Great selection of steaks and traditional Italian meals made with veal or chicken and daily specials to include even more.

Food was exactly as you'd expect from a high-end establishment, in an area where you'd least expect it.
