“We highly recommend Cafe Italia (Ira Woods Grapevine location). Nick and his team are awesome. The food is amazing! Fresh salads, delicious bread, large portions in a romantic, as well as family friendly environment. BYOB, plenty of parking, fast service and very reasonable prices. We recently hosted our daughter’s engagement party at Cafe Italia, with 22 adults and 4 children attending. Everything was perfect! Albert, Arturo, Patty and team were wonderful! Everyone loved it We will always consider Cafe Italia our favorite Grapevine area restaurant.“

“My gang is from NJ, we were looking for decent Italian food (of course!) never imagined this amazing place! Food was perfect, server Jeremy a sweetheart! Oscar, thank you for the free drinks and hanging out with us! Texas is blessed to have this little gem of a place!“

“First off I love so far everything I’ve ate, I’m a sucker for the avocado wrap tho, I’m disabled and I can’t go inside, so I call in my order from the car, and let me tell you, chef Tiffany treats me so special, actually they all do, but I’m so satisfied with the service and wanted to share this experience with everyone!! Piada rocks ““

“Three of us friends arrived at the restaurant and sat on the patio due to the fact that it was a lovely evening. The wait staff came out and brought us our food and I believe at one point the manager also came out and greeted us. We had some very typical dishes, spaghetti, garlic bread, and my friend had another Italian dish. One friend had wine and two of us had a mixed drink. Our bill came out and it was quite expensive. So we talked about how we did not feel like the price matched the quality or the taste of the food/drinks. I do hope that this local restaurant will make it. I do love supporting a local restaurants. But I was not wowed by the quality or the taste of our Italian food. I hope somebody else has a better experience otherwise. The wait staff was lovely. The environment was lovely and the effort is beautiful.“

“Great spot for Easter lunch new expansion in the dinning room made it a new go to option with little wait. Same quality in service and food!“

“Fantastic meal for our party of 10. Impeccable service and everything they put on the table was perfectly prepared and delicious. I Will absolutely be back the next time I’m in the Dallas area“

“We were really hoping this would be great as it is relatively close to us. We thought it was decent and that’s about it. Very friendly staff and clean dining room for sure. Average to good pizza. Wings were big and meaty, Buffalo sauce was rather plain.“

“I was at a festival at the halmton theater and my friends suggested this spot. Man o man, everything is delicious here! I love their baked ziti pizza and I’m still thinking about it all the way here from FL. I hope to come back one day! Excellent customer service as well and prices! thank you.“

“Piada has become our go to for a quick healthy meal where we can all find something we like. Over the weekend, Luis and Miley juggled a busy moment with to go orders and a line; and, took excellent care of the personalized requests on our orders. Thank you!“

“I do some work in Arlington on the weekends. We live an hour away, we discovered this place in April. We look forward to going to this place. It is authentic as you can get. I've ordered alot of different things off the menu and everyone of them has been spot on incredible. I look forward to the house salad and house dressing, I even ask for extra. The dressing is so good they should sell it. I'll have lunch there and about a couple of hours later I'll have a couple litte burps and I can taste the house dressing. It's that good. If you like Italian food. This is the place to go.“

“I visited Vida Café yesterday with my friend to celebrate both of our birthdays. The owner was super sweet and took very good care of us! The food was so tasty! The gluten-free bread, minestrone, omelette with yummy veggies, and affogato were all delightful! I plan on coming back as soon as I can. Thank you, Vida Café!“

“Ate here with my family last night! Superb food, friendly staff, and all around great atmosphere! Definitely looking forward to eating here when we are in town again!“

“My wife and I have been here recently and we had the calzone, the chicken Murphy, and stuffed mushrooms. The food was really good and very flavorful.

The owners and the staff were very friendly. You can tell that they take the time to take care of your food and to make sure that you feel very welcomed. We are very happy to have an authentic Italian restaurant near our home and can't wait to come here again. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone with big groups or who wants homey Italian food.“

“From the moment Mitch, decked out in a stunning white wedding dress complete with a lacy veil and a bouquet of fresh flowers, walked through the doors of Italianni's restaurant, it was clear this was going to be a lunch unlike any other. The cause of this unusual attire? A lost Super Bowl bet that led to a good-natured yet highly embarrassing promise: to enjoy lunch with his dad while dressed as a radiant bride. Mitch a bearded man in a wedding dress due to a lost bet is humiliated in public. Despite the awkward situation, the staff at Italianni's played along beautifully, adding to the fun and light-hearted spirit of the day. Mitch, although blushing and sheepish in his bridal gown, was an excellent sport, embodying the saying that a bet is a bet, with all the grace and humor one could muster. Yet, even as Mitch sat there in his grandiose gown, the real star of the show was the food. Italianni's delivered a culinary experience that made even a man in a wedding dress forget about his blush-worthy predicament. The flavors of Italy sang through in every bite, from the rich and creamy pasta to the perfectly seasoned entrees that made our taste buds dance with joy. In the end, the lunch at Italianni's was not just a meal; it was an unforgettable experience. It was a reminder that sometimes, life's most embarrassing moments can turn into precious memories, especially when shared with family and surrounded by the warmth of great food and service. Italianni's didn't just serve lunch; they created a space where Mitch could fulfill his bet with dignity and laughter, and for that, they deserve nothing less than five stars. Whether you're in a wedding dress, a suit, or casual wear, Italianni's is the place to be for an exquisite Italian feast and a welcoming atmosphere that can turn any lunch into a celebration“

“Carrabba's Hurst I want to thank you for the spectacular lunch you provided me at my mother on my birthday October 24th this afternoon!! our waiter with the white beard and the Georgio Armani slick back was the greatest waiter I've ever had the pleasure of having serve me .this guy this was kind ,the food was right the blood red Margarita was on point!! love you guys“

“I eat here a couple times a week
I have tried almost everything and it’s all good !!

Vegetarian options: This place is the best
They make most of their own pasta from scratch
When you taste it you know !!“

“It’s the best. Just great food and atmosphere. Been going to Piola for years.“

“Great food, fun servers, and the piano player in the dining room was great. you can tell he loves his job, which always makes it better. Then there was the band playing in the bar area and they were great. And even better, Do to the setup and size of the restaurant you can enjoy yourself in the dining and bar area without being disturbed by the other areas activities.“

“I ate here today for the first time. My only complaint is I didn't eat here sooner. Everything I had was amazing. This is the best Italian food I've had in DFW and it's not even close. The Brushetta Capris, was amazing the freash mozzarella cheese with basic and some balsamic paired with a jucy tomato and toasted bread was a perfect apatizer 10/10. The chicken marsala was a great balance of savory and sweet. The deserts were out of this world especially the pistachio cake. I will recommend this place to anyone who likes Italian food. They also have 3 other locations but the one in Bedford is ???“

“Came here with my man on our way back to Austin. Very surprised with the amount of selections they had for food (meat ravioli was delish) Val was our bartender and made the whole experience top tier. Very friendly and we were all chatting for the good time we were there. But, beware cause they will roast you when you pronounce words wrong ? adding this to our pit stop whenever we’re back in DFW area.“

“Incredible food and service!“

“Small restaurant with plenty of outdoor seating; 5 tables inside. The food was outstanding. The service was incredible and I loved being able to peek into the kitchen through the window to see your food being made right in front of you. I ordered Tricolore and it was penne pasta with spinach and tomatoes with a white sauce. It was good, but not 10/10. My husband ordered Gambrini (I might be spelling it wrong) and it was out of this world. The focaccia and the balsamic vinaigrette were also amazing, We will absolutely be back!

Vegetarian options: There were plenty of vegetarian options. I'm not vegetarian but I don't eat a lot of meat. I chose a vegetarian plate (Tricolore) and was happy with it. My husband ordered a shrimp dish (Gambrini) and I didn't try the shrimp, but the pasta was out of this world on his plate.“

“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.“

“Celebrated wife’s Birthday Dinner there and everything was Wonderful!“

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

“We visited Cafe Bella for our Anniversary and it was wonderful! Its hidden away in an area close to TCU campus. The atmosphere was cozy and we felt as if we were in a five star dining establishment, but the prices are reasonable. They do not serve alcohol but you can bring your own wine. The bread that was served before our meal was so hot and perfect. The Lobster Ravioli melts in your mouth and makes your taste buds sing! we will definitely be back!“

“Great service, great food. Had the cioppino. One of the best I have had. Hard to believe I was not in a coastal town. The wine list is limited, but a very good selection. Headed back tonight!!“

“da best! armends is da best!“

“Great food for the whole family!“

“Best local mom and pop Italian around. Also very adorable“

“Our daughters recommended we celebrate our anniversary here. We had an amazing experience! Everything was superb. The entire staff was very friendly. Our waiter Caleb went above and beyond! The manager Cathryn, chefs Landon and Frankie made sure they added a special touch to our anniversary dinner. The food is bursting with flavor. The appetizers are so delicious I couldn't stop craving more. The Tiramsu was a perfect bow to a wonderful presentation. We will be returning soon to try the Charcuterie Board. Note: I usually don't crave Italian food. The prices are very reasonable.“

“You know you’ve just gotta love Olive Garden! It has its own flavor I would not say it is 100% Italian food, but it is good and when you’re in the mood, it’s very good!

The one thing I love the most about Olive Garden is their salad and breadsticks!!

Today I had spaghetti and meat sauce for lunch along with a great salad and some peach tea!

If you’ve never had their peach tea, I would highly recommend it. It’s flavorful and delicious. Treat yourself today.

This particular location service is quick and very friendly!!

If you’re in the area, this is a good location quick good service and great food!

Kid-friendliness: Definitely very kid friendly!

Wheelchair accessibility: This location is wheelchair accessible“

“I ordered carry out but the inside was beautiful. I ordered the shrimp Alfredo and cheese sticks. I did think at first the price was a bit much but you get a lot of food and they were fairly generous with the shrimp. I do wish the sauce had more flavor. The cheese sticks were great and I had 8 I believe. Very flavorful. I was a bit behind do it wasn’t as stringy but still good. I wish there was a lunch portion maybe I over looked it but it was a lot of food“

“Fantastic Italian faire with a great neighborhood vibe. The entire staff is always so welcoming. I'm impressed. (+ it's BYOB!) I've been several times now and the food and service have been great everytime. Grazie!“

“My wife and I decided to try this place out! They make their own bread in house, the Philly cheesesteak is full of flavor and the ingredients with the bread compliment each other very well! One of the best I’ve had! Highly recommend! Side note: to the people who have scored this establishment very low...shame for not using common sense! The place is new the previous establishment Which was a pizza place moved out Phillys took over and if you get lost it’s your own fault if you don’t look at the street number which is clearly on the door!“

“A hidden gem!! The food is amazing!!!“

“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!“

“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.“

“When I moved to Arlington I created a post on the Community Facebook page requesting recommendations for pizza in Arlington. I got a lot of feedback, but nobody mentioned Zio Al’s. My girlfriend told me it was by far the best pizza restaurant in town, and tonight she drug me in to try it. I was very skeptical because of the FB post, but I’m never eating at another Pizza restaurant in town again. I absolutely loved their supreme cheese stuffed crust pizza. However, I really wanted to do this review because of the service here. I have never in all of my life seen a more polite respectful and caring server. Diego was answering the phones and greeting customers by name and had an incredible personality. We were originally going to get our food to go, but the atmosphere was just the right tune for my girlfriend and I on our night out.“

“Thank you Joe’s, for taking our parties at Premier Martial Arts today to the next level with your pizza!!! We love being your neighbors… best pizza in Southlake, hands down!!!🙌“

“Moni's pizza is the very best in town. I ordered my pizza through the Slice App and they messed up my order. When I got home with my pizza and realized that it wasn't what I ordered, I contacted them and they we so nice about it and did everything to correct the problem. They went over and beyond to fix the situation to my satisfaction. I will never use the Slice App again because they only credited 30%of my money back. They made sure they kept their portion. I just sliced the Slice App from my phone. I will never order pizza from anywhere else except Moni's. Staff are wonderful and the Pizzas are delicious!“

“I took my nieces and nephew here, and they were so kind. Our waitress was so sweet and patient. It was a normal wait for food but it was delicious. Of course I couldn't finish my food so I had to take it to go, so it is worth the money. Overall experience was very pleasing, all the waiter and waitresses were super friendly. They gave the kids stickers and extra chocolate at the end.“

“This is not the closest Olive Garden to my home but I will always do the extra drive to come here! Ramiro took care of us today and service like his is the exact reason why I will continue to make the drive! He is such an AMAZING waiter! I recommend this location as I’ve never had a bad experience here.“

“Amazing service ! Thomas is amazing!“
