“This was my first time here, and I will definitely be back. The tortellini alla panna was phenomenal. My son's spaghetti and meatball was very tasty, too. The bread with the meal was fresh baked and warm, and our food came out very quickly. They even have Diet Pepsi AND Diet Dr. Pepper. If you drink diet sodas, you know how few restaurants carry more than one diet soda choice. And to top everything off, all of the staff was so nice and attentive. I highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to trying their other menu items.“

“We love waters edge winery. The food is delicious and has a nice theme with shared ingredients in many of the dishes like burrata, and other Mediterranean influences. Our favorite wine is the montepulciano (please forgive the spelling) but the almond sparkling is a very close second. It’s a gorgeous, bright interior, and a perfect place for a date night or an outing with friends. The wine flights have generous pours and are a fun way to sample before coming back to purchase a glass. Also love that it’s an easy place to pick up a hostess gift or birthday present for an Inlaw or friend. The owners are thoughtful and intentional about creating a beautiful and welcoming space and we love this addition to our section of Norfolk!“

Additionally, it's one of those small "mom and pop" type places that deserve good business. Amazing food, friendly staff, and the only reason I gave it 5 stars is because there wasn't a 6-star option. 10/10 recommend!!!“

I loved the plating on the bread and the choice of butter or olive oil but the bread was too dense and over cooked.Chicken parm very good and carbonara as well. Was hoping for a fantastic cannoli but none on the menu! The restaurant is beautiful inside.“

“My boyfriend and I made our first visit here last Saturday evening for dinner. I had a hankering for pasta and almost resigned to [unmentionable Italian chain restaurant name] when he suggested we traverse the tunnel to this revamped fire station spot.The atmosphere is quaint and homey with well-chosen touches. Our server was funny yet very attentive. He opted for the spaghetti and meatballs while I tried the white lasagna. Although higher priced than [blasphemous Italian chain name], you definitely get what you pay for in terms of food quality, taste and value. Everything was super delicious! Also, we do our best to support local businesses. I saved about half of my lasagna portion to reheat in the oven for lunch. Still awesome. I scarfed it down like a guarded submariner who got real eggs for breakfast.We will definitely return to savor more fares from Razzo. Mention [abominable Italian chain name] should you dine there and attempt to compare, and you’ll most likely get slapped by everyone: back of house, front of house, patrons who understand the assignment, probably even the Starbucks workers across the street, too. No comparison. Very authentic Italian food made with love.Go there hungry and enjoy! The bread is also amazing, and try to make room for dessert, all made from scratch.Pleasantly surprised and stuffed.“

“If you need to fulfill your need for some pizza and wings Del Vecchios will meet your needs. No bull pizza with plenty of scrumptious varieties of style to choose from. The wings are true buffalo style in my opinion. Taking down ten of their hot wings is not hard to do, and you might want more. Great blue cheese dip to go with them. Be prepared for a busy take out area if you go at peak times. If you pay before you get there it's more convenient because you can go to the GRUB HUB sign a t the counter. The have a large seating area for dine in at the front of the shop nicely separated from the busy crowded take out area.“

Lesson lesrned on ingredients we don't like. Lol The cannoli was delicious. Boyfriend had a pistachio coffee ice cream w/cookie. Was tasty. The hostess, Caroline (sp?), as also the server. She did a tremendous job working the room & serving. Excellent restaurant. Great food. Great service!“

The dining areas are comfortable and spacious. Definitely worth a visit.Parking: Small lot across the street is shared by this and another restaurant. The lot is free but monitored by an attendant. Tipping is recommended.If it is full, the nearest lot is a couple blocks or you can take your chances funding a spot on the street.“

Not to mention, the food was great! We brought in a homemade birthday cake made with love, but the presentation was horrible. The cake broke apart when it was removed from the baking pan, so we tried to spackle it back together with icing to cover the imperfections. When it was time to bring out the birthday cake, we didn't even recognize it!!! Susan saved the cake! They decorated the cake in the back with whipped cream and candles. We were all shocked when this beautiful cake was brought to our table. It took us a minute to realize it was the same cake we brought in. Kudos to Susan and the entire Gianna's staff for your care and extraordinary service!!“
