Great place to get some Italian! Have been coming here for years!!! Dimly lit atmosphere.Edit: I'm so sad that The Villa is leaving us. This restaurant was amazing and I loved it so much. Eating there tonight brought back so many fond memories. The food has always been spectacular and the atmosphere has always been stunning. I'll miss you forever.

Everyone ate different entrees, and all of our party were pleased with our meals. Fresh salads, and quick from the oven entrees were a pleasure to eat.Service from the waitress was a bit slow, but she was working the entire restaurant due to staffing issues. Not terrible, but less than great.

Place is closing so this won't matter much. Wasn't worth the hype. Do they plan to get food deliveries before they close for good. We were there right after opening and they were already out of items. Also we know the staff are losing their jobs, but do the job if your there. Tried to flag down staff for check, had to ask 3 times so we could leave. Never got drink refill and no staff at check in for 20 minutes, that should have clued us in. Make sure you have at least 2 hours to eat dinner.

First time customer. Stuffed shells and cheese bread. I am pretty sure this is all out of a box. The cheese bread had no flavor. Nothing Tasted authentic or above average. Yikes. Avoid.

I went for lunch about a week or two prior had a delicious meal. Came back and got the same thing for dinner. It was the lasagna meal (lg) extra meat sauce. It is totally awesome better than some other local food chains. On my first visit I ordered a pizza to go and it was delish also.

EVERYTHING! Was amazing, fresh and had so much flavor! My salad had no dead lettuce and my lasagna was hot and very cheesy!! Overall the best! Worth every penny for sure !!!!

I visited the villa because of the reviews, but what I got did not match the reviews at all. The veal parmesan tasted like it was bought from a frozen food truck, the spaghetti sauce tasted like it was a cheap, canned sauce. My meal was over $17. I regret not making sausage and peppers at my house. This is more like a cheap cafeteria than an Italian Restaurant. It's too bad, because the staff was nice.

Friendly staff, clean establishment, decent food. My kids LOVED it!

Food served hot and tasty. Veal parmigiana was very good. Chicken parmigiana was average.Service was good but the hostess needs training. She is first person to greet us and didn’t seem friendly. If you’re in the area give this place a try. Price was reasonable.

Great pasta, sauces and salads. I love the old world atmosphere. Our server, Deanna, did a fantastic job taking care of us. She was very prompt, professional and friendly. Can't wait until our next visit.

Wow, terrible waitress today, yikes. The place was pretty slow, and yet she seemed invisible most the time. Got one of our orders wrong, but she just seemed in such a foul mood, we figured it was best just to let it go, esp. after waiting 25 minutes or so before she seemed to re-appear. I loved the old Villa, and will likely go back at some point, as one kerrappy waitress isn't the world, but I can't imagine inviting the friends I had with me today to go back.
