Food was amazing! It's a shame it's kind of off the map, no matter which side of the city you are on this place is worth the drive! Will be back soon!

The Italian wedding and minestrone soup was supposed to be good but it tasted terrible and salty.Salad wasn’t fresh and the main course of Salmon Palermo and Tour of Venice was salty and bland. Even the rolls were not fresh.

First time here, we live close and thought we would check it out. A little dark on the atmosphere and the plates were chipped, but the food made up for all of that! I had the Luigi special and my wife had the chicken parmesan. Both were amazing!! We both had salads as well and they had lettuce that was very fresh and tasty! Thank you! We will be back very soon with more people next time!

Had the worst dining experience. First ordered the garlic cheese bread as an appetizer, which costs $1 more than just the regular garlic bread. It was a joke! There was no garlic or butter on the bread, not even SALT, and there was just the slightest SPRINKLE of cheese on top. You could literally see the 5 little squiggles of cheese. It was dry bread with I think some garlic powder on it (the kind you buy in a plastic bottle on the seasoning aisle at the grocery store) and then just a few shreds of cheese. I chose not to say anything because I just didn’t want the drama. Then I ordered the Rustica salad because it said it came with ROASTED onions and red peppers, which sounded really good. Instead, the waiter brought me what looked like an expired bagged salad of iceberg lettuce (it was browning in the edges) with onions that were dried out, cold, and definitely not roasted. Looked like they had been cut DAYS ago and left to wilt and dry out in the fridge and the red peppers were also unroasted with a layer of slime on them. I didn’t even attempt to eat the salad and just asked the waiter to please remove it from the ticket after pointing out to him what was wrong. I held out hope for the 2 medium pizzas we ordered but they also came out completely different than what the menu described. We ordered the Venezia White pizza which says it comes with ROASTED GARLIC on top - it had absolutely none. It didn’t even have cheap minced garlic. No garlic at all. It was literally just a basic cheese pizza with zero sauce and it was extremely greasy. Then we had also ordered the Magherita pizza which says it comes with the typical FRESH BASIL and MOZZARELLA slices on top and it had neither. All it had on top were undercooked and under-ripe slices of tomatoes that still had the cores on them and then a dash of what I assume is dried basil sprinkles, like the kind you buy in a plastic bottle at the supermarket, not the fresh basil leaves that come on ANY Magherita pizza that I’ve ever ordered. Totally bland - the tomato sauce beneath layer of cheese tasted like it came from a can and had zero seasoning to it. I took a bite of each pizza and that was it. My daughter had a slice of each. I explained to the waiter once again that the pizzas were completely different than what is clearly described on the menu. He said he told the cook/chef…but no one came to talk to us and no one apologized. The ticket remained unchanged. The owner/manager didn’t even say goodbye or acknowledge us as we passed him on our way out. Worst dining experience ever. I paid for our food and we left. I won’t ever be returning unfortunately. Went home starving because literally all I had was my Diet Pepsi, a small slice of the “garlic bread”, a free roll, and a literal bite of each of the pizzas.
They REALLY need to update their menu descriptions if they aren’t willing to serve what they describe in them, otherwise they are setting people up for confusion and disappointment. The salad needs to at the very least be fresh and not look expired! And they should just remove the garlic bread from the menu if they aren’t going to teach their staff how to make the most BASIC of foods and still charge people $6 for it. I can’t believe they call themselves an Italian restaurant. They should be ashamed.

The original owners had to have sold this place. It is absolutely terrible in every aspect. Any place that serves frozen meatballs has got major issues. The best part of the dinner was the iced tea.

The appetizers, main course, and dessert were all delicious!! The Lemoncello Marscapone Cake was amazing!! We'll definitely be back! We were the only customers the whole time we ate which surprises me considering the great food, service, and atmosphere!
Only Reason this isn't 1 star is because our server was wonderful. I went with my mom and brother and my food was the only food that was even a little enjoyable. Even then I wouldn't eat the same thing again. My bros glass wasn't clean. If I can explain the experience in one word that word would be gross.
Excellent food and service. The bread was so tender. Will be back.

The lasagna wasn’t full of flavor but it was good, son said spaghetti was good. The server was extremely pleasant but we had to ask her for refills on soda a couple times. We will be back because it’s close and I’ll try another dish next time
