   Very very garlicky and not fresh food. Service was horrible and messed up 2/4 orders.

   I am of Italian decent, so I don’t find much pasta edible in Dallas. The pasta here was cooked perfectly al dente, the sauces were good…not great…but def better than most. The service is a bit unattentive. The space is sparse and not well decorated and there are areas of oddly empty space.

   A minor suggestion - the to go boxes are quite tiny and it took a couple of them to get my wife's meal home (which was quickly devoured by my teenage son). Great food otherwise. We will be back.

   Best Italian that we have had in Dallas metroplex. Excellent service, spacious dining area and great location. Parking is tricky, if space in the parking garage is unavailable.

   Great service from Jose. Good food and value for meal. Tables a bit close and noise was an issue.

   Hi Jason, Thank you for your feedback! We’re so glad you enjoyed the food and found the service from Jose to be great—he’ll be happy to hear it! We completely understand your comment about the seating and noise. For Valentine's Day, we had to adjust our usual layout by separating tables to accommodate more date-night parties, which made things a bit cozier than usual. On a regular night, our tables are more spaced out for a more comfortable dining experience. We hope you’ll join us again soon when things are back to normal—we’d love to provide you with a more relaxed visit! Best, The San Marzano Team

    All pasta dishes were flavorful! Calamari was delicious and crispy. Caesar and wedge salads were awesome as was the tiramisu which had great espresso flavor!
