   The food here is AMAZING! I also love the ambience of the restaurant. Unfortunately, the service was less than par. It seemed like the only thing our server knew was the “history” schpeel they give at the beginning of service. Any time we ordered a drink it took 20 minutes and our friend never got her mocktail (initially) because the bartender “forgot”. She also forgot the bread she offered us, so we never got that after our meal as we were enjoying a cocktail and talking. If the service had been better, I would 100% recommend.

   Great for an occasion! The food is excellent and the service is wonderful - just a little more pricey than average. But definitely worth it for a celebration!

   We were super excited about trying their signature carbonara, and ordered it, but the portions were tiny, I felt like they skimped on our food. The server was a nice guy, he offered some desserts after we finished , it took like 3’ for me to eat that really small portion of carbonara. My friend got one of tge desserts but not me because I was still hungry! If giving your guests a poor portion of food so they can order desserts after that, that’s a way to not attract guests that want to enjoy of a good meal and a fair portion at least. I ended up my night going on our concert super hungry and disappointed. I would not recommend it. There are other places where you can pay $30 for a plate (that’s the cost of their carbonara) and get a good mea and a good portion. I paid $42 at the end with the tip, no drinks. My point is, I spent almost $50 for nothing. So sad!

   My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed everything about Sicilia. The staff was attentive, the atmosphere was nice and the food was delicious. It would have been nice to have a little more time between our salad and entree. Felt a little rushed in that area. Overall I would recommend this restaurant.

   Our reservation was 7, and we didn’t get seated to 7:45p, staff apologized and gave us a free appetizer of bruschetta (which was good), we ordered drinks, table side Ceasars salad, and entries (Lasagna, ravioli, seafood pasta, gnocchi, and 3 table side carbonara pasta that they make in the parm wheel. It took them an hour for them to come and do our table side Ceasars…they were good. Then our food came out. Everyone was served their entries accept the table side pasta, (all their food looked good and they said it was hit and tasted good). Now for the 3 of us that ordered the table side carbonara they came out and did the full show in the wheel. Looked good…BUT OUR PASTA WAS COLD!. They apologized took it in the back and made us fresh ones, but not table side which was okay as we already saw the show, we just wanted our food. They brought it out 15 mins later, but the rest of our group had already ate their food, as we don’t want theirs to get cold, so we didn’t truly get to eat together. The pasta was okay but still not steaming hot, we didn’t complain again we were starving. Here’s where the staff did take care of us, the did comp the pasta and the salad, we did not ask for it they did it because they knew.  This is why I rated the service high. They were friendly and apologized. They knew it was not the best night due to the wait of us getting seated, salads taking 45 mins before they started them, and our carbonara was cold. The sad thing is I built this up to my work colleagues and it did not deliver as we were there for over 3 1/2 hours, and the food was okay for some, but others enjoyed theirs. I hate to write a bad review, because they did try to make it right, but I would had rather paid full price for an amazing experience and great food

   Have been here many times before but this was different.. it was extremely busy with big parties for the holiday however they did not have enough staff to accommodate. Our server was Luigi and he was fine however he didn’t have the time to check on us towards the end to where we were going to have dessert but he never came back to our table. I had to ask someone clearing the table next to us to get some to go boxes and ask for the check.. that took some time.. by then we were at a place where we didn’t want to wait for dessert. As far as the price… very expensive for onl ordering entrees and no drinks or desserts.. the value wasn’t there.. $69 for a steak that was mediocre-can get a better steak elsewhere… pasta was good… go being the one who ordered carbonara. They wheeled the station behind me so didn’t really experience preparing at my table.. it was awkward to do a complete 360. Might consider that for others.. again it was busy but you pay for the experience there. I will consider that before returning if we do..

   My reviews of this place are all very similar...fantastic service, food, ambiance etc! We have never been even close to disappointed. Our servers have all been just fantastic and to not play favorites, no names will be mentioned but rest assured they are all just great!!

   The table was ready for us very shortly after our arrival. The service was exceptional, and the food was amazing! I was there with my girlfriend, and the ambience was so romantic and quiet. We had a great experience, and we will definitely be returning again.

    I could go on forever with how impressed and amazed I was by the food, service, and over all ambiance. It was in such an un assuming little strip mall but oh my! Some of the best! The Best! Italian / Sicilian food you can get in Utah for sure! Oh and the tuna belly crudo special! I could eat 12 of those so so good
