    Made reservations for a party of six. Was sat a little late. Server was fantastic. Ordered the calamari which was a little chewy and needed seasoning.we also got garlic bread which was very very good. We got an assortment of things. Pizza, salad, pasta. I got a mini pizza. It was so so good. Very pleasantly surprised. Salad was HUGE. All 6 of us enjoyed our meal which is a feat for 4 adults and 2 kids. The ambiance in the grotto was quiet and cute. Loved it.

    Place has a nice look and friendly staff but the food was very underwhelming and tasteless. Chicken parm tasted like the chicken as well as the sauce had too much water. Pizza was just okay. Three of us in our party and non of us finished our meal or wanted to take it home. Not bad enough to complain just to not want to come back.

    Dropped into Guiseppe's Pizzaria and Ristorante for a quick lunch while touring Meredith, NH, with our group. The restaurant was well-attended, but we were nonetheless seated promptly. The environment was cozy and comfortable and the service was friendly. For food, we chose the Pollo Florentine Alfredo pizza and a cup of Beef Minestrone Soup. Both were super delicious. The pizza had an abundance of spinach hidden under the mozzarella cheese. That was a bonus, no one had ever done before! We were unable to attend the advertised live music and didn't taste the beer, but it seems like a good place for both. The restaurant was housed in a larger, modern building with interesting shops. The restrooms, were just the next door, outside the market, indoors. There are shops across from the restaurant, and stairs.

    Giuseppe's is so good! The staff are always super friendly and helpful with the menu. It gives a real homey, rustic vibe. The restaurant is surrounded by shops, book stores, candy shop. Super cute area of Meredith, NH!

    We were visiting friends who suggested this spot for our dinner, and it turned out to be a nice evening. We were quickly seated and had a friendly server. We chose the fried ravioli appetizer special, which was very good. Hot, crispy and delicious. This and the entrees were reasonably priced. The dinner entrees come with a salad and a big basket of dinner rolls was brought to the table at no charge. Entrees were huge and big enough to split for those with a smaller appetite. Overall, we thought the entrees were good. We were so full, there was no room for dessert.

    Heard about this place so had to try it. Was very busy, suggested wait was 45 minutes to an hour. The restaurant was cute, cozy and fun. I ordered Chicken Marsala, and it came with salad and bread. My meal was tasty and the price was reasonable. My friend had the pizza, not the best pizza around but was fine for a late lunch. The view outside is pretty, it's at the Mills Marketplace which is very cool. Lots of shops there, other eatery places. I would come back because the ambiance is very nice and the prices are fair.

    Went in sunday , it was steady busy! We were seated asap and greeted! Had drinks ordered and apps. Stuffed mushrooms and a salad & lg X cheese pizza. Mushrooms were good , but disappointed in the pizza is was ehhh and way over cooked!

    The pizza here is worth the drive from anywhere!! The food is delicious and the ambiance is cozy. It's worth the wait! Prices are incredibly reasonable.

    Penne Allá Vodka

    The place is super cute but the penne allá vodka is not good. It's basically just pasta with light marinara sauce. The pasta was cooked way too much. It doesn't taste like penne allá vodka at all. The pizza is really good though! Just don't get the vodka pasta lol. The waiters were great!

Was told it would be 30 minutes wait but it was more like 10 minutes. Started off with the espresso Martini, the marshmallow cold foam on top was to die for. I literally dug in the jar with my knife to eat it (they build the Martini in front of you). Special app was the curry mussels, these were delicious. Could have done without the roasted red pepper though. We literally we pouring the sauce over bread, our salad, and down our throats. At one point BF looked at me and said would it be trashy if we asked for a straw haha it was that good. He got the bolognese and added the chicken parm chicken to it. It was delicous as is, the chicken parm enhanced it. The meat was so tender and pasta was so fresh and cooked perfectly. Portion was HUGE. I enjoyed his a lot. I had the porchini ravioli with lavender cream sauce. It was good, but definitely for an adventurous eater. There's a lot going on with the carrots, added mushrooms, micro greens, and spinach mixed in, I could have done without the carrots. Sauce was not too flowery tasting, I liked it but at that point I was so full I couldn't enjoy it as much as I would have liked to. Ravoli was good sized, you get 5 big ones. Ceasar salad was decent but I've have better elsewhere. Waitress said dressing was homemade and it had anchovies on it which I love. Wish it came with a lemon wedge. It was a good portion for $8 side salad. They start off the service with bread, olives, cheese, and olive oil. That alone is a fantastic app! Bread service was excellent. There is also cheese and crackers at the front but we did not partake. We got the chocolate cake for dessert. It is literally the same chocolate cake that you can get at cheesecake factory. It was dry but the ganache frosting was fantastic. This was the most lackluster part of the meal. It was such a sad note to end such a good meal on. They end dinner with a complimentary shot of lemoncello and espresso beans which is a really nice touch. Atmosphere- we were seated on the indoor patio next to the windows overlooking the lake. Love the string lights out there. I think the main dining room had a little more to look at but where we were seated it was kind of plain, like it couldn't decide if it was a porch or old Nonna's dining room with the mismatched furniture (which did give it a little charm in a way). Price is in line with what you get. Drinks add up but the crafted cocktails are worth it. One bottle of wine was $40, which arguably was not worth $40 but that's how they get you at restaurants. He had the merlot and said it paired nicely enough with his pasta and chocolate cake. Pros: bread service, attentive server, food is decent, price is adequate for what you get Cons: chocolate cake, atmosphere is meh

Excellent! so when we had an appointment in Laconia I was looking forward to the rich full bodied Americano decaf we always get. I added a bit of half n half and tasted. Found them to be luke warm, and also weak as dish water. I think the cool temp of the brewing water prevented the coffee beans from giving up their flavor. I brought back to the counter where the barista warmed them w the frother. btw, no apology. I thought I could drink it but it was awful. So I asked for a splash of regular coffee to be added thinking that might fix the weak flavor. She told me she'd have to charge me for a small coffee. Really? Didn't I already spend almost $5 on this bad coffee? So, that was it, I declined the additional cost and left it on the table. My husband brought his home where he promptly threw it away.
