“One if the best Pizzas I've had. that Crispy Cheesy Edge it unlike anything ive had before! This place is gonna make me fat for sure cuz its so good you want to keep tasting it! its a must have. omm!“

“All I can say is that their pizza is amazing. As I've said before, I am from Chicago. I am picky with pizza. It has to be really good, really cheesy and flavorful. The sausage cannot be some processed sausage pieces rather real homemade italian sausage pieces. The sauce has to taste good with a bit of sweetness. Rosati's pizza is all that. Reminds me of back home. Especially the way they have the pizza slices on that rack during lunchtime. Ya'll just have to try them out.“

“I have to give a shout out to Acquario Italian Seafood!! This is now the second time I have eaten there, and everything I have ordered both times was PHENOMENAL!! Tastes amazing and each dish is a work of art. Definitely our new fave!!!“

“My husband and I were in Texas for our first time and looking for dinner one evening we found this restaurant on a whim, and we are so glad we did! We were sat right away at a table and the staff was so incredibly friendly, especially our waitress Abby. I have gluten and dairy intolerances so finding good food options out, especially dairy free options, can be challenging. I ordered the gluten free personal pizza with vegan cheese and it was one of the best gf df pizzas i’ve ever had! My husband ordered normal (full of gluten and dairy) pizza and he scarfed it down, we both were so happy with our meals. Abby even took the time to share the restaurant’s backstory which is truly amazing. The next time we are in the area we will absolutely be back. If you are looking for great wood fired pizza and amazing staff this is your spot - especially amazing for gluten free crust and/or vegan cheese options. Loved it!

Dietary restrictions: Amazing gluten free crust and vegan cheese - not all vegan cheese melts well (if you know you know) and this one melted great and tasted great. Crust was delicious.“

“I don't think I can say enough about how great this restaurant is. AMAZING, the food is so yummy. Everything is worth trying! Thanks ya'll :)“

“They've got some really interesting pizza's!!! We were in for lunch last Saturday and really enjoyed it. Had great service (food came out pretty fast) and everything was excellent. Thin crust makes it a little healthier than standard pizza too!!!“

“We had an amazing experience. The food and recommendations were amazing. Oscar was a phenomenal server and we will be back and requesting him! The owners were beyond amazing. They told us stories, took time to speak with us, and truly shared the heart and soul of this restaurant. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!“

“From appetizers to desserts, Parma's exceeded all our expectations! Our entire party enjoyed the appetizers, the variety of delicious dishes! Their wings and calamari was a crowd-pleaser! Their portions are plentiful. I hosted my son's graduation dinner there. The staff at Parma's went above and beyond to make our experience memorable, with exceptional service that made us feel truly welcomed. The ambiance and food received high praise from all attendees, making Parma's a highly recommended dining destination.“

“Honestly, we loved eating at Joe's until last month. We ate there very frequently but all the sudden one of the waiters decided to start making a big deal over my 76 year old mother ordering off the kids menu since they don't have a senior menu, and for my 2 kids ordering off the kids menu. They're 12 & 13. The age was no where on their menus or website. After they started to make a problem out of it we pointed out that nowhere was an age listed on anything so they wrote it on marker on their menus. Strange hill to choose to battle on, that you'd rather give up customers that ate there 1-2 times a week over the ages on kids meals. It's kind of ridiculous. Ive never seen a restaurant care. Either way, that was it for us. The kids were really upset. They loved going there.“

“I didn't take any pics, but tonight was our first visit here and it was great! Kudos to our waiter, Todd, who was so attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. Atmosphere is so inviting and the pizza is delicious! This place has definitely has it all together! Thank you for a great dining experience“

“I come here today to say that, although I love Olive Garden. My experience at this location was not 100% perfect. And that is OK. Normally when there’s too many mistakes, I eventually boil over and give the worst review. But it is different.

Today is November 11, 2024 Veterans Day. Came to Olive Garden tonight by myself to enjoy the free Veterans Day meal. Which I usually do every year since I joined the army. There has been issues in the past at different locations, but still I continue to show up because I do love Olive Garden.

When I got here today, I was seated immediately. My server came in introduced herself. I asked her if I could move to the other table that had just emptied because it was a booth and I preferred a booth. She had to check with her team and once it was approved, I got up and switch seats. I’ve been told her I would like to get a water with lemon and then I asked a couple questions in regards to the menu. Normally the menu changed a little bit. I wasn’t sure which I wanted. I was stuck between the fettuccine Alfredo or the chicken Parm with spaghetti. Depending on the price I was going to either add chicken and shrimp to my Alfredo or just get the chicken Parm.

Natalie went to be back to find out the prices to add on items to the meal. She returned to my table fairly quickly. She said for both the chicken and shrimp. It would be around $4 and some change each. So I decided to just go with the chicken Parm. I placed my order and she went to the kitchen and brought me breadsticks and a little bit later my soup came out. Everything was coming out so quickly.

I finished the soup pretty stuffed. I waited around on my phone for my entry to come out. It never did. Throughout the time she came over and checked in to make sure I was OK and told me that she would go and check on my food for me. During the visits, I also ordered a strawberry spiked lemonade. With everything that was going on unfortunately she forgot about the lemonade. But with the time going past, and my entrée still not being brought to me eventually another server came over and verified my order. In that moment, when I realize that there was a mistake made. She went back to the kitchen and then that one of the managers, Chavan came over and apologize for the inconvenience and told me how bad she felt. I appreciate her being genuine and trying to rectify the situation.

Even after speaking to the manager the food still took a lot longer to come out. I believe Natalie got worried so I saw her less. She eventually came back to the table. I did inform her that she is perfectly fine. Apologize genuinely but I could tell that she looked like she wanted to cry. Chavan came over and brought me some more water and also offered me a dessert.

All this to say but yes, there were some things that went wrong, but their customer service was absolutely amazing. The teamwork to try to fix what happened definitely made my day. Natalie, if you ever see this, I hope you truly understand how amazing you are. Some servers would have just given up while others would have not even apologized. Keep being your authentic self because honestly, there is a bright future ahead of you. And for manager Chavan you are an amazing leader. And your employees are very lucky to have you. Just remember not every table will be perfect. But even with a not perfect table, there are perfect managers and perfect service that make everything just the way it supposed to be.

In the end, I still gave Natalie a tip. And I still left a comment for her in the kiosk and I really hope that she gets it one day. Restaurant should have a server like Natalie and a manager like Chavan.

Ps. I hope I still up both of their names, correct. ?

Ps. I ended up getting my entre and dessert Togo because I was sleepy so no pic“

“Had a fantastic meal at Amore’s with my family! They make their pizza crust, garlic rolls, and sauces from scratch and they are fresh, flavorful, and delicious. We had stellar service from Lisa who is hospitable and personable. We tried the Florentine Pizza and the Fettuccini Alfredo Pizza, and the Caesar Salad and the Mediterranean Salad. Delicious! Amore’s is a BYOB restaurant so be sure to bring your favorite plonk to enjoy with your meal. We will DEFINITELY be back!“

“This could possibly be the best Italian restaurant in Texas. The food was excellent, and cooked to perfection. Albert, our waiter was very attentive and a delight. Our party was large, but he was spot on. The cheesecake was bliss. I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“First time here. The atmosphere is very classy and very nice. Our server, Gabi, was super kind and very professional. Very enthusiastic and pleasant to speak with. Rachael, one of the owners, came and spoke to us as well and was very welcoming to us for our first visit here. My fiancé and I have never felt more welcome in a restaurant than we are here. The service is top-notch! The food is amazing as well. My fiancé built her own pizza and I have their world famous fettuccine Alfredo. So delicious! We will come here again, no doubt about it!“

“da best! armends is da best!“

“What an amazing experience we had hosting 40 friends and family for my Mimi's Celebration of Life. From the food to the service to the atmosphere, everything was perfect. Gary was very compassionate and helpful as we planned this event and the entire staff was friendly and attentive. I highly recommend Salerno's for lunch, dinner, happy hour or hosting a large group. Happy to support local businesses and cannot recommend Salerno's enough.“

“This Italian place is a game-changer. I've tried many others, but this one stands out from the crowd. Authentic flavors, perfectly cooked pasta, and warm service. It's a must-visit for Italian food lovers!“

“Delicious pizza! Most like NY-style than anywhere else in the DFW area.“

“Great place with excellent dining atmosphere and great food. The shrimp scampi is particularly good - catch it in a good weather day and enjoy the patio and walk downtown Roanoke and take in sites“

“Delicious freshly made pasta and dishes. Espresso martini is amazing. Super fun yet classy atmosphere and the staff was top notch“

“We had a wonderful meal today with our two grown grandsons. My husband can't get enough of the seafood with clams, shrimp and mussels on linguine with wine sauce...“

“Love the atmosphere! Food was 10/10 !“

“Wonderful meals and service! Outstanding!“

“A close friend just lost a family member. I offered to have Olive Garden delivered as comfort food and to help feed them. What I didn't know is that Olive garden doesn't work with doordash and requires 24-hour notice or so for in house delivery. I decided to just pick it up and drop it to them myself as I know they were looking forward to it. Out of all the places that I called, Olive Garden in Lewisville was the most pleasant and helpful. I spoke with Emily and explained that I was trying to pick it up as soon as possible to deliver it because I had my 3-year-old (he was getting cranky in the car) and I still had to get home to Garland. Without hesitation, she put a rush on it and made sure that it was ready within 15 minutes. She was so kind and so helpful even with me asking to add things later that I had forgotten about. She personally delivered the food to my car and I think it was because she wanted to carry out her mission to help. She truly cared about serving people outside of just dinner and I couldn't have done it without her. It made such a big difference. I will forever be loyal to this Olive Garden!!!! If I could give 100 Stars I would!“

“Great place and pizza … the staff is very friendly!“

“Well… as seen in most of my reviews, if it’s a 5-star? “ I mean it!”
Jesica was very helpful and lead us in the right direction for perfection.
Pizza was thin crisp and stiff on the hold. Sauce was well applied with a soft subtle after taste. Pasta and the stuffed pizza was great… A must have. Then if you’re not in the mood for pasta-pizza, go with the Philly cheese steak sandwich… OMG! That was a hidden treat. I usually travel the eastern seaboard, but Texas never disappoints for the shocking amazing food.
Nizza Pizza, thank you for your great food and the parking. See you on the next run. You Rock!“

“Recently I had a surprise birthday party for my wife Mary. Owners Mike his wife Ruby son Bes and daughter-in-law Red made the occasion truly a night to remember! They have a beautiful private room in the back of the restaurant and all the food that was prepared was excellent! The Service was first rate. They were very accommodating in letting my friends and Family decorate for the party. The bartender is a fine young man named Steven who is so respectful and helpful, a true asset to the establishment! My wife and I dine at Genti's often and have tried many different dishes and never disappointed! This is a true gem in the area and would highly recommend whether having a wonderful Dinner in the restaurant, having a party or ordering take out. You will truly enjoy!!“

“Dined at the bar outside and Bartenders Becc and Kevin were incredible. They helped me choose a delightful red and I ordered the octopus app. Yes, in TX, I had one of the most outstanding dishes I have had in a long time. Delightful experience!“

“Joe's Pizza is a Southlake area restaurant that has been serving NYC style pizza for many years. It's a casual restaurant with many large tables, a testimony to all the youth sport groups coming in to share a slice. We have been going to Joe's for 18 years, and their pizza is always delicious. Their Italian main dishes are very generous, so unless you are feeding growing teens, think about splitting a salad and a main dish. I love their spaghetti and all beef meatballs. My son always orders their garlic knots. If you're in the mood for pizza, then head over to Joe's. You'll feel like you're in a NYC pizza parlor.“

“Wonderful food and outstanding customer service. So delicious. Our sever Kim was so gracious and super friendly. I highly recommend this place. The price was great for the food.“

“We were in Grapevine for North American Irish Dance Competitions. I saw a sign for Gelato but the market has so many wonderful items to purchase. The star that day was their lemon cake. We got some gelato and a slice of the chocolate and lemon cake. Everything was delicious but I may need to have a lemon cake delivered to TN. Check this wonderful place out!!“

“I could not wait to get home from Dallas to write a review of this wonderful restaurant. HUGE KUDOS to the owner Craig Vaught! His personall attention to our evening made us feel like a "king and queen." He chose 3 wines to pair with 3 of his appetizers. We can recomment all 3: The Bruschetta, the Humus, and the Calamari was our favorite! We had 3 tastes of different wines: a white, a rose' and a Bold Red. We especially enjoyed the light Chemin de Provance Rose' and we got an extra glass of his Olema Cabernet Sauvignon to have with our scrumptious Filet Mignon! What a night! We will be back and hope to bring our Wine Club from our Winery in East Texas, Moody Family Wines. Thanks again Craig for a memorable evening. And our sweet attentive waitress Eridania Filpo was just GREAT!“
