We had our one year old son with us and the service was quick and friendly. The meals come with salad and rolls, which were both delicious. The rolls were hot and approved by the baby. The salad was good and fresh, we both really enjoyed the Italian dressing. For dinner I got the veggie lasagna and the baby and I both really enjoyed it. My husband ordered the chicken fettuccine Alfredo and it was very good! We all liked that the best. The sauce had great flavor so the out being too thick or heavy. For dessert we ordered a crème brûlée and also enjoyed that. It was not too sweet, which we appreciated. We really enjoyed our experience and will be back to try some of the other dishes.

The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making us feel right at home. It's cute inside. We started with the mozzarella fritta, which was absolutely delicious! The marinara sauce accompanying it was bursting with flavor. However, the dinner salad was a bit underwhelming. It only had simple toppings like tomato, red onion, and cucumbers. I opted for the house dressing, which was supposed to be a blend of oil, vinegar, and Italian spices. To my dismay, despite vigorous shaking, all the seasonings remained mostly at the bottom of the plastic cup, with little to no vinegar. It was okay, but not particularly impressive. For the main course, I ordered the baked Italian combo. The lasagna was good, though a bit overcooked and with some crunchy bits. The chicken parmigiana was also tasty. However, the meat ravioli that came with it was a major disappointment. It tasted like a plain noodle with a large amount of unflavored meat. To sweeten the deal, we had crème brûlée for dessert. It was enjoyable, but a bit peculiar. Half of it was piping hot, while the other half was ice cold. Despite the oddity, the flavor was still great. Overall, the food was okay, and I might return to this place in the future.

This was my husband's and my first visit to Testa Barra. We known about it for years and I wish we…read morewould have come in sooner. It was, hands down, the best experience we've had at a restaurant in a long time. We are very choosy with where we go out to eat these days because the service always seems rushed, the food quality doesn't match the price on the menu and feel like we're just a table to turn instead of a valued guest. This was most certainly NOT the case at Testa Barra. Our server, Bradley, was wonderful. He was friendly and personable, gave fantastic food/cocktail recommendations, and was extremely knowledgeable about the spirit selections and food preparations. The atmosphere was elevated and polished, yet relaxed. My husband had the smoked old fashioned (love the table side service) and I thoroughly enjoyed the dirty martini and refreshing "garden of Eden" cocktails. Calamari for starter was crispy on the outside and perfectly tender, cooked just right. The Ragu Conchiglie and Barramundi were deliciously comforting and flavorful. We truly enjoyed our evening from start to finish and will most definitely return.

My husband ordered the spaghetti and meatballs, which were just as incredible--classic, hearty, and done right. To top it off, we had the tiramisu for dessert, and you can truly tell it was made from scratch--fresh, rich, and the perfect ending to our meal. Everything we ordered was outstanding. We will definitely be coming back! Highly recommend! Service was amazing! Definitely will come back and get the same server to our table! As for the ambiance, it's somewhat outdated.

There was three of us that came to celebrate a birthday on Saturday 1-24-26. We had made…read morereservations for 6 PM but had to wait over 30 minutes for our table to be ready. It was packed inside and when we inquired on the wait time the hostess mentioned people were staying long and they were very behind. Once we finally got seated we got a private booth with curtains. A warm bread basket (very delicious) quickly arrived and our drink orders taken. The drinks here are quality pours and they brought us extra olives and cherries which we thought was a nice touch. We started off with calamari and escargot for our appetizers. Calamari was plentiful and had big meaty pieces. The breading was a little too salty though. I'm used to calamari coming with a side of marinara but this came with cocktail sauce. It was nothing special and probably wouldn't order it again. The escargot, normally a favorite of mine, was to rave about either. The sauce it came in was very bland and my girlfriend ended up adding salt to it to make it taste better. Main courses were a better choice. I had the gnocchi with Palomino sauce and it was excellent. They give quite a big portion so I had enough leftovers for the next day. The birthday girl got the Veal Mamma Assunta my other friend went with the shrimp Casalinga (their house speciality). They both said they liked their choices but it wasn't anything exceptional. I think depending on what you order certain dishes are better than others. We had a good experience and the portions are large but it just seemed there were a few things lacking that could have made it a great experience. I would still recommend Luciano's but I would come here when it wasn't a busy weekend or during lunchtime.
