When I arrived at the host stand I was informed that reservations were required, but since it was just me, they agreed to seat me at the bar. I was served quickly by the bartender. They do only have Pepsi products and for some reason that does not include Mountain Dew. I got a Starry and the Lasagna. The Lasagna was the best lasagna I’ve gotten at any restaurant during my travels, even dethroning my current top contender which was Bruno’s Little Italy in Little Rock (that one was on diners drive ins and dive). I mentioned the Starry as my drink was refilled with Water by accident. The bartender and I had a good laugh about it and it was no big deal. The staff is really friendly here.

I definitely recommend the lasagna.

PASTA PASTA SOUP N PASTA. I ordered the zuppa alla stracciatella, fed my heart, warmed my soul.The wait-staff were attentive and considerate, my mom wanted a drink switch and they accommodated. The atmosphere was inviting. Thank you for having us ✨👨🏻‍🍳✨

Very nice small Italian restaurant with wonderful, authentic food. Every bite was delicious, service was excellent, prices reasonable. And the Limoncello cake we had for dessert was melt in your mouth luscious.

Overall: Great food all around, we will definitely be back at some point.

The good: Friendly service and plenty to choose from, with low lighting to make the atmosphere charming and warm. Lobster ravioli was amazing and so was the chicken parm, with more than reasonable portion sizes and prices.

The not-so-good: Service was much slower than expected, but we weren't in a rush and didn't mind. The manager even came over to apologize. Not a ton of seating and it can feel a little tight between tables.

The service was great. No one in my group liked their food and we all left hungry. Most of the herbs that they used were not fresh and had a dull flavor. Their pasta sauce seemed to lack flavor at all, it seemed to be nothing but tomato paste. The fat in the pancetta was nothing rendered so the carbonara was plan and chewy as well. Disappointing experience despite the friendly service.

Cuoco Pazzo checks all the boxes when it comes to a restaurant. I have been coming here for three years and never had a bad experience. From the food to service— it’s an all time high. Never had Italian food this authentic. Cuocco Pazzo has it all!!!
