“Service was amazing & food was delicious! I've celebrated many birthdays here and it never disappoints! We were showered with great service and happy birthday messages from the manager, Drew (what an excited party guy!) and waitstaff. We will be back next year. My cousin works for Brinker & says a new menu is coming in November! Can't wait to see it! I also let him know about the great service. Great job Maggiano's!“

“I can say the food is really delicious.we like it a lot“

“love the special pizza. staff have great customer service and they have bands in the weekend with famlies in mind“

“We had a curbside order but arrived early and decided to have a drink at the bar while we waited for our food. It didn’t look like the itemized receipt was correct from the online order and the bartender, Alexander went straight back to the kitchen to check on our order with the kitchen to make sure it was correct. We were pretty tired and Alexander was a light in our day. Super friendly and incredibly attentive. 11/10“

“Exceptional customer service. Really good food! I recommend the burger. Nice cozy atmosphere.“

“Oops l meant to give Stefano's a solid star rating.“

“We got the supreme pie and it was delicious. It has a lot of toppings, without too much sauce, and the crust was crispy. We dined in and since it’s BYOB, I walked over to Krogers and brought back some beer. Glad I tried it out since it’s so close to home.“

“I have driven by this place many times but never stopped to try it until last weekend. All i can say is the food is ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!!! I loved that they had the option of building my own pasta plate. I put alfredo sauce over angel hair pasta with grilled chicken......YUMMMM!! My husband got the chicken picatta. He let me taste it. The balance of the lemon in it was perfect! I also want to rave about the garlic bread. It was crunchy on the outside but not to the point that it rips up the roof office your mouth. The inside of the bread was perfectly saturated with butter and real minced garlic. It was soft but not soggy. I need to find out how they do that. The caesar salad was good. I just wish I had asked for extra dressing. I have been back again since my first visit. I got the same thing as before. My husband got what i got, but ordered meatballs instead of chicken. I tried the meatballs and must say, I think I'll order that with my alfredo and angel hair pasta next time. To finish, I had some mint chip Gelato. I forgot to take a picture but I have to mention how it was delicious and a perfect ending to that meal. The establishment was clean and I love the napkins they wrap around the silverware. They look like cloth but are disposable. It gives the place a classy feel. We will be going back there on the regular and I can't wait!“

“1st visit today celebrating my birthday. The staff was wonderful and the food was excellent.“

“You will not regret this little place. Great Food, friendly staff, good prices.“

“I went there tonight for dinner. Great food & very good service. I really enjoyed their food. The restaurant itself is basic looking, but their food is not. Excellent Italian food made by Italians. I highly recommend this place. The Italian bread was amazing! 🤩“

“I cannot remember the last time I had such an amazing dinning experience, first Musa our waiter was absolutely amazing. His personality and the love he has for the Angelos definitely showed. He even dotted on the chef and how long Angelos has been in business and I loved that. It’s hard to find these days. … let’s talk about the food. The tortellini was superb and the chicken piccata was just enough lemon and absolutely delicious. The entire experience definitely has me wanting to go back already and I will definitely be making this my go to for Italian food. Thank you Angelo’s and Musa.“

“It was a nice place food was great serving was huge host was super friendly“

“I been to this location a couple of times. The shrimp Alfredo is good. Bread sticks are fresh and good. But the salad is not fresh. Ever time from this location that I have gotten the salad in hopes that it will be good, has been disappointing. The lettuce is wilted and like it's been sitting in the fridge. That the only negative thing I have to say. Everything else is good.“

“My experience was unforgettable! Cody was my server and he was absolutely awesome! My food came out so fast and I didn’t even have to ask for a refill on anything!! He was amazing and I will definitely be returning just for him! I have never been to this location before and I can’t wait to come back!“

“The best rainbow trout I've had. perfect in every way. Staff are cool along with managers. Great atmosphere and bar. The fresh homemade pasta will melt in your mouth. This place Rocks.....“

“Very nice server, great soup. Pleasant place to stop and have nice meal. They do have tables outside for the outdoor person“

“I love this place!! Food was great and people were nice!!“

“Can't stress enough how much I enjoy Pomodoro's of Clear Lake which is in a strip mall with plenty parking and wheelchair access. The interior is cozy and always reminds me of Italy and is excellent in all areas!! Like the "complimentary" garlic and olive oil spread are always delicious, and I have never had a bad meal. Service was professional, fast & friendly and our bartender / server checked in on us frequently Shoutout to the "owner: who is nothing but "awesome" she always is checking to make sure everything is to our satisfaction, which makes it a wonderful experience. The pizza, appetizers, and the main course meals are fresh and have been "fantastico" which came out quickly, coffee and the sangria were yummy. Seriously! I cannot wait to go back and enjoy more of their delicious food at a very reasonable price for such quality, I have eaten Italian food in Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, Rome, Naples and truthful can say absolutely, this is my favorite Italian restaurant in America to date!! Lastly, The restrooms were perfectly clean.“

“Good food, but maybe a bit overpriced for delivery. The chicken Parmigiana was excellent. I am a big fan of the spicy Pomodoro sauce. The garlic bread was a bit chewy. My wife said her cheese ravioli was good, but not as good as Olive Garden (and I'll let you decide where that sets the bar).“

“Great food and service !“

“Just tried Mama Mia's for the first time. Cozy atmosphere and the Margarita Pizza was hands down Best pizza! My husband loved the Lasagna and the chocolate cheesecake was best comfort dessert💕. Highly recommend and we will be back!“

“Very Good you have to check them out ! Our new go to and service is great !“

“AMAZING pizza! I’ve lived in Chicago, NY and NJ and have tried the best pizzas offered and Tommaso’s has the authentic pizzas! My faves are the margarita which I get extra tomato’s and the seafood. Crust is spot on, and other menu items are great also. Can’t go wrong here.

Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs all one floor“

“After a terrible experience grabbing Chinese food at the other place in the same food court, I had to dump the entire tray nearly uneaten and find something else to eat. After looking at reviews, I decided to buy one slice and see how it went. Pizza was actually pretty decent. I got the pepperoni slice and it looked fresh and tasted fresh. The only shock to the system was how expensive it was for a single slice of pizza with no drink or anything - $8.52. It may be worth it for someone ordering a whole pizza , but I would not pay that for a single slice in the future.“

“We have been to two markets and have had their pizza both times. Love this pizza company.“

“Being born and raised North of Detroit and JETS being one of my favorite home town pizzas, I was nervous it wouldn’t be the same, but this location really exceeded my expectations! We had a large order that we traveled from Baton Rouge to get, it was ready on time, cooked correctly, and had that perfect grease soaked, crunch. If we are ever around this location again, we will definitely be back. Great job team and THANK YOU.“

It’s not just a meal, it’s an experience. Highly recommend!“

“An american style italian restaurant chain. Wine card may be the best option if you search something italian. Pasta was "al dente" but thats all italian i found there. No the food wasnt bad only the italian style was not existing, for me. Service was fast and kind full- the restaurant looks and feels like a chain...nothing nice but clean. As european and vegetarian i found something to eat. Was to much...a starter +giant side salad +egg plant /pasta. 2 beer. Around 80 bucks for 2 person. You may get better and nicer in Italy but yes not deep fried...haha.“

“New owner is awesome. Food quality is great. Price is great.“
