    Beautiful venue and the food and espresso martinis were good. Our server was a grump with no personality so that was a bummer. Maybe he was just having a bad day. Anyway, I hope we have better luck next time in regard to service. We still tipped 50.00 on a 200.00 bill.

    Interested in dining here as it just opened. Open minded. The food was above average. The service was average. And the ambience was mediocre. Hopeful that this will make an upward climb and a place in the local culinary establishment.

    we celebrated a birthday.. I wanted the room with the murals in it.. But it was such a horrible table !!! We were smushed up against a curtain that could’ve been open .. giving more space and room.. My Food Was delicious but came wrong.. then they took it back and Judy put more of the right sauce on top of it.., Asked for no onions and my salad came with onions… ..

    Another fabulous lunch at the Italiano! Had the chicken Milanese salad. It was amazing!! Hubble had the chicken rigatoni with peas and cream sauce. It was outstanding! You MUST have the cannelloni dessert! Such a nice presentation and they are divine.

    Fabulous Christmas lunch! My BFF and I have eaten dinner at Italiano so decided to try lunch. We were not disappointed! Started with the antipasto salad. Perfect! Spaghetti and meatballs were delicious and the perfect amount! Espresso martinis have a twist of flavor like no other! Include a pretty white chocolate flower! George was our server and did a great job! Knows the menu and allowed us time to talk! I highly recommend for lunch or dinner! Cheers!
