What a wonderful restaurant! The interior is charming, but more importantly for me, the carpet and drapes have a noise deadening effect. Restaurants generally seemed to have lost sight of this. So often the customer is surrounded by flat, hard surfaces and with just a few occupied tables, the sound is deafening. Even with a packed house, this is not the case here, and I think it's great.

Our attentive waiter was Italian, so points for authenticity. He was friendly, and service was without any issue.

The fresh bread they brought us was an excellent first impression. It came with real butter, and the butter was already thawed to room temperature. I learned this service tip long ago. Trying to spread hard butter on soft bread is just not going to go well. Letting the butter quiescently soften means the staff is planning ahead for the guest experience. Someone is paying attention.

Overall, excited to have found this place. It made for a great date night.

Reservations are recommended for peak times.

Note:
There is another Cafe Italia in Grapevine. I tried poking around, but no one seems to acknowledge that there are two restaurants in close proximity with the same name. They appear to be independent from each other, but I cant tell. Some of the photos look very close, but maybe reviewers are also mixing up the locations. I have only been to this one of the two, so I don't have further insight.

Albert was fantastic and super knowledgeable. Chicken Alfredo, calamari, mozzarella sticks, and the desserts were the best we’ve had in a very long time. Everything was amazing and they have GF pasta!!! Yes, my husband is an Italian from New York City

A great spot for date night! Location is very cozy and the food is delicious. I had the chicken parm, portions were fantastic. Be prepared to wait 15 minutes - 1 hour, staff was very kind and feels very homey. Will be back!

We love to eat here. The food is fantastic and the service is superb! We shared Fettuccine Alfredo and our friends shared Tortellini in Vodka sauce. They split it up in the kitchen so that we each had a plate. The bread is sooooo good!!

Caio from Grapevine Texas!
Background, I'm Italian heritage and I don't like eating Italian food at restaurants.
Tried this place and the food was very very good. I'm thinking my mama would like it here. Besides good food another highlight is it's BYOB. That alone saves u BIG money.
Okay here we go... Service was good and food was good. Several traditional items on the menu plus they have daily specials. One of the few Italian restaurants that have veal (if that's your thing). Portions were a good size so you don't get super stuffed and have no room for dessert.
Let's talk dessert, black coffee was good and the cannoli was just so so. Filling needed to be a little thicker and richer, it was ok if u don't have any Italian blood in you. You gotta look at the pics. Yum.
P.S. yes I would differently be back, but next time I'll bring more wine .

Great food and atmosphere, we didn’t know it was BYOB and wished we had as they do not offer wine at all.

Great restaurant our server was very attentive and the food was great and worth every penny of what we paid. Along with the great service and food the atmosphere was great with Italian music and decor on the walls. This is a restaurant I will visit again forgot to mention we were given a breoche for it being our first time to visit

I want to start with the most relevant point.

The service was terrible, I have visited alot of restaurants.
(MR Nicky) your service was terrible and he was rude. Bad attitude, he ignored us, and we even had ask for simple things to attend to us. He was nice when I paid the check . He is friendly with other costumers ,it was probably the color of my skin.

The lobster ravioli dish was 5 stars, but the lasagna had no flavor, the tomato looked like it was from the can ! I give it 0 stars.

The bread look nice, but had no flavor and was dry. And the mozzarella sticks looked like they were from the freezer store bought.
I don’t know how they have a 4.6 star reviews. I would give them a 3.5.

Please check the service .

We arrived for dinner around 8:10 p.m., and before even greeting us, the server brusquely told us the kitchen was closing soon and that we would need to hurry and order. His tone was rude and unwelcoming, which set a poor tone for the evening. While the food was excellent, as always, the rushed and unfriendly service nearly spoiled what should have been a relaxed, enjoyable meal. At a restaurant of this caliber, both food and service should meet the same high standard.
