We were at my fiancée's house during the week and decided we wanted to try something different to…read moreeat, so she recommended this Italian restaurant that she tried before with one of her best friends and said it was good. We were going to try a pizza but we went with pasta dishes instead. She already had the lasagna before and ordered it again, I went with the chicken parmigiana. Both dishes were great, but I think I liked her lasagna better. Neither dish felt heavy even though it looked heavy. The food was just delicious. This was a pick up order and as soon as I walked in to pick it up I was immediately greeted at the door with a friendly smile. This is a place we are going back to for more great food and hospitality.

This restaurant, located in a nondescript strip mall in Garland off NW Hwy, is truly a hidden gem…read more The ambience is nothing to write home about, but the food is outstanding. The chef is obviously trained and talented. We went here for dinner on a Sunday because the kid wanted pasta. The menu actually is quite diverse with some Italian, Mexican, vegetarian, meat, burgers, and flatbread. Usually or often when a restaurant tries to do everything it ends up doing nothing well. That is not the case with the Italian that we had here. We started with a Caprese salad and it was pretty standard. The wife had lamb chops and they were cooked perfectly. Great sauce. The spinach and mashed potatoes were also perfect. I had chicken piccata. It was one of the best, if not the best, I have ever had. Chicken was tender and the sauce was excellent. The grilled vegetables were cooked perfectly. We had fruit tart (excellent), cheesecake (excellent) and chocolate cake (excellent) for dessert. We want to come back. If the Mexican is as good as the Italian food, this place is an all-time winner.

The quality of food that you are getting and the level of service you are getting is not what you would expect from the looks of the outside.

When I entered, I was rather uncertain. The space looks like a stereotypical pizzeria. I wasn't impressed at all, but I was too tired to leave. HOWEVER, my attitude quickly changed as I was greeted by the outstanding wait staff. Over the course of my visit, I was checked on several times by what seemed to be either the owners or managers. In the heart of a busy city, these men went the extra mile to make me feel like a welcomed guest in their home. It was a very nice experience. I ordered the lasagna on the server's recommendation. What a plate of food! The meat sauce was not skimpy at all....lots of beef and flavorful seasoning. The noodles were soft while still firm enough to maintain the shape. The generous portion and the really soft bread were a great dinner to bring a long day to an end. As a lover of Italian food, I plan to visit several area restaurants over this weekend. I have to admit that I'm thinking about returning to Besa's to try out some of the delicious pizza I saw during my visit. Excellent experience! I'll definitely be back.

So this is the first time coming here came for lunch we ordered the fried ravioli and I have to say…read morethey are just sad they tasted ok and were placed on wilted mixed greens which was brown and made it look unappealing. Also had some of the bread that they bring which was meh not a very flavorful now my sister had the fettuccine Alfredo. I asked her how it was. She said it was decent not one of the best service was OK. We went there during lunch and it was probably about six people there including ourselves. The area gave a vibe of like elegance, nice restaurant and everything but the food just did not match on point. Everything was very mediocre. Kind of sad. I mean this was the lunchtime so I don't know. Maybe dinner is different but yeah, I will not be going back to this place. There are way better Italian restaurants in Garland and DFW area but we wanted to try this one. I think what needs to be improved. In my opinion is that appetizer baby figure something out because everything was store-bought. You could tell you could taste it. Everything came out of a package. I'm not gonna lie the meatballs I had tasted like the meatballs, my mom used to buy from Walmart from the bag and I was like these taste familiar and it clicked in my mind so maybe making stuff and everything and all that stuff from scratch

They have valet parking which is always nice when I am out with my wife. 2. Their location is easy to find one block from beltline and I-75. 3. The restaurant is cozy and felt authentic with Italian vibes. 4. Service was polite and engaging. Our waiter spoke excellent Italian. 5. We went for Pizza and were not disappointed. I love wood burning oven because I like the Burt edged crust . We also had chopped salad. Our guest couple had the calamari and shrimp appetizers that were very good too. They decided to have shared a pasta dish, carbonara that they raved about. Our drinks were standard beers. All in all and very nice meal that we are happy to recommend.

The restaurant has a more upscale feel without being stuffy, with a warm ambiance, attentive service, and plenty of nearby parking, which makes the whole experience easy and enjoyable. The food was excellent, and the atmosphere struck a nice balance between casual and special occasion dining. My only complaint is the kids' menu. They offer kid-sized pasta options but surprisingly no kid-sized pizza at a pizza restaurant. It would be nice to have a smaller pizza option for little ones. Otherwise, a wonderful experience and definitely a place I'd return to.

Our visit to Vitto's began with a nice warm welcoming from the person who would also be our server…read more She was pleasant and really made the experience a great one. The ambiance was very pleasant, with chandelier lighting. The place was spotlessly clean. While the music was easy listening, it did not really match an Itlalian restaurant, but I won't criticize them on that. For Dinner we ordered a Tortillini Alfredo and a Chicken Parmigiano. Both were freshly prepared and executed perfectly. I honestly intended on eating only half of my Chicken Parmigiano, but it was so good I could not stop myself from eating it. The rolls served with it were pretty amazing as well! My only concern is that on a Saturday night at 7:30 we were one of only 4 tables in the place. Seriously, food this good is something everyone should experience, so I am hoping my fellow local Yelpers will come out and give this place some well-earned business!
