    Eggplant Parmigiana
    Monica G.

    Blink and you might miss the driveway since restaurant is set back away from the street. Small dining space with clean large windows inside. Ordered the lunch special eggplant parmigiana: excellent price, delightfully delicious while the prompt service was friendly, efficient and kind. Had a wonderful meal with plans to return soon!

    Salad served with entree

    We made a reservation but the restaurant wasn't busy on Saturday at 11:30. Pasta entrees served with choice of soup or salad. The fresh salad tossed with homemade Italian dressing was the highlight of my lunch. The generous portion of pasta primavera , penne with a medley of broccoli, squash and carrots mixed with a thin butter garlic sauce, needed more flavor. The sauce was so thin it seemed like broth. The thin breadstick, cut at an angle, adorned the plate. I usually enjoy the bread when dining at an Italian restaurant so this was a disappointment. I guess they want to sell you an order of garlic bread. My friend ordered a slice of cheesecake and tiramisu to share. I preferred the cheesecake over the tiramisu. Service was attentive.

    I had reviewed this little hole in the wall before and I still think this is special Italian cuisine. Excellent food. Excellent service. Everything is superb. If you want to eat here you must make reservations and I assure you that you are making the right decision!!

    Breading all just falling off.

    Ordered a quick appetizer the fried calamari over the phone was curious asked how many does it feed is it enough for 2 people I was never once told it came with HOT marinara sauce took one bite and my mouth was on fire. I was very disappointed also I went 30 minutes before closing and the calamari was very hard and the breading coming off not even sticking to the calamari. Called back lady didn't even care told me they only put a little bit of red pepper flakes

    Our waitress was delightful and very attentive. I truly wish I could give this locally owned restaurant 5 stars, it certainly has the potential. Tortellini soup was overpowered by too much black pepper. Chicken Francese was overpowered with way too much lemon! The Chicken Pizzaiola was inedible. This dish had so much red pepper poured on to it that it burnt my lips and tongue. Tiramisu was great (but not made in house) and garlic bread was superb. The restaurant is very small and requires a reservation. Hopefully these issues will be addressed. Surely they are very capable of doing so much better.

    This restaurant is super cute and cozy. The food here is amazing! The garlic cheese bread was so good! The staff were super attentive for having a full house. My husband actually forgot our to-go container on the table and the male server came out to the car to give it to us

    We got lucky as we showed up on a random Thursday and were immediately seated with no reservations. This place is small but charming. Feels like you're in someone's house as there is maybe like 4 or 5 tables total inside. I could see why you would need a reservation or order take out. Our server was pleasant and the prices were very reasonable, especially for their wine selection. We started with the fried ravioli since we had never tried before. It was crispy, hot and filled with ricotta. Delicious and very filling. It was hard to stop eating them to save room for the actual meal. I ordered the eggplant parmesan and my partner the chicken alfredo. They took approximately 20 minutes to come out and they were both served really hot and seemed made fresh and from scratch. The eggplant parm was good but not the best I've had. It could have used more seasoning. The chicken parm I tried tasted too watery and soupy for me and was also lacking seasoning. The tiramisu, however, was really good and a great way to end the meal.

    Chicken Francese

    Food was so good. Fresh. Good price and not a long wait for food. I got the chicken Frances. Came with garden salad or soup. Staff was friendly.

    Italian fare isn't easy to find in San Antonio; however, La Sorrentina is an exception. I found this place courtesy of a Google review and wanted to try it as I was craving pasta - as I always do! I arrived at a smaller, moderately busy restaurant with a dimly lit dining area and cloth covered tables. I was seated and after briefly looking over the menu, which had a decent number of classic options, I opted for a plate of Spaghetti Marinara. The server was pleasant, and Bread was brought out as well as a house salad, both of which were appetizing and paired well. When the spaghetti arrived, I was ready to enjoy it. The sauce was rich, and the pasta noodles were properly cooked - al dente! Overall, I enjoyed my meal and thought the service was acceptable! This place is kind of a hidden gem - so don't miss out!

    If you happen to stumble upon this hole in wall, just know you've stuck gold. While tiny and tucked away, the food packs a punch. The pastas are rich, delicious and flavorful. I have not been disappointed yet. The servers are always willing to help with any questions and are very helpful!

I started with a Hugo spritz, which was light, refreshing, and exactly what I wanted to kick things off. Later, I had a carajillo, and it was just as perfect--smooth, rich, and a great way to wind down the night. We couldn't get enough of the burrata... so much so that we ordered two! It was incredibly creamy and paired so well with the fresh toppings and bread. Definitely a must-order. And of course, we had to end with dessert--the tiramisu was unbelievably creamy and indulgent, with just the right balance of sweetness and espresso flavor. Absolute perfection. Between the cozy atmosphere, great drinks, and delicious food, Renzo's is such a gem. Highly recommend for a chill night out or happy hour with friends!

Coordinating a big table can be tricky, but the service here was *outstanding* from start to finish. Our server kept everything organized, drinks refilled, and plates coming out smoothly without anyone feeling rushed. Everyone in our group felt really well taken care of, which made the whole evening relaxed and fun. The food was just as impressive. Truly every person at the table seemed to love what they ordered -- we had a lot of "you have to try this!" moments being passed around the table. One thing I especially appreciated was the Caesar salad. I noticed another review mentioning the anchovy flavor in the dressing as a negative, but in my opinion, that's exactly what made it great. For me a Caesar should have that briny anchovy depth, and this one tasted freshly made and perfectly balanced. It felt authentic and thoughtfully prepared. Between the warm atmosphere, truly fantastic service, and food that everyone enjoyed, it made for a really memorable evening. We'll absolutely be back! Thank you Renzo's for taking such great care of us!

    There's a moment when you sit down at Paesanos River Walk where you realize you didn't just pick a…read morerestaurant... you picked front-row seats to the whole show. Perfect day. Not too hot, just that easy breeze rolling off the river like it's got nowhere else to be. I'm there with my daughter and family, and the world's walking by boats cruising, people laughing, a little chaos, a little charm... dinner and a show, no ticket required. Now the food real Italian food. Not the kind that just throws red sauce at you and hopes for the best. This is layered. Garlic that actually means something. Rich, buttery sauces clinging to perfectly cooked pasta like they're in a lifelong commitment. You taste herbs, you taste depth it's the kind of Italian food that makes you slow down mid-bite and just nod like, "Yeah... they got this right." Drinks? Smooth enough to keep ordering, strong enough to make you question your life choices in the best way. Service was dialed in. Nobody missing, nobody stressed just right there when you needed them, like they were reading your mind or watching you a little too closely... either way, it worked. And the atmosphere? That's where it gets dangerous. Because you sit there watching the River Walk roll by, the noise, the laughter, the movement... and suddenly two hours disappear. You're ordering dessert you didn't plan on, another drink you don't need, and nobody at the table's in a hurry to leave. I came for Italian food... ...and ended up staying for everything else.

The ambience within the premises is also lovely with that of a cellar vibe, low lighting (at night) and of course the water which works well. The staff were professional, friendly and attentive. Menu-The menu was quite extensive. However, would not normally attend a place this pricey, but it was a special occasion & you tend get what you pay for. Meals- We ordered the Capellini Pomodoro Crudo & the Spaghetti ( Spicy ) The red sauce is delicious on the spaghetti.The Crudo, it was a little disappointing. It hardly had any roasted tomatoes in it and large chunks of mozzarella that never melted. The olive oil was very present & not much else. Would have been better tossed with some of that spicy tomato sauce! (see pics). Note-Advise you to make a reservation! We were fortunate: as we went late in the evening, no wait time, seated outside & they were still fairly busy. The restaurant offers a private cruise dining $ experience. Check their website for details.This Italian cuisine is catered aboard a floating vessel while surrounded by the historic scenery of the river.

    We were a group of 10 looking for a last-minute dinner spot, and a coworker mentioned they had…read moreeaten at Tre Trattoria the night before and enjoyed it. So we went online and made a reservation. Upon arrival, we had a large round table set for 10 ready for us. Our waiter, Rami, was really nice and worked hard all evening to take good care of us. The restaurant itself is along a quiet area of the River Walk in an old stone building with tons of charm. The ambiance was relaxed and inviting, perfect for a group dinner. As for the food, it was good but not exceptional. I was excited for the Goat Cheese Pizza with balsamic onion, pistachio, and saba. The thin crust, however, was almost too crunchy and a bit tough to eat. The toppings didn't stand out as much as I had hoped, likely because they were overbaked together. Overall, we had a lovely dinner with great service, a charming atmosphere, and good - but not great - food. 4 stars for now. I would return and try again.

We arrived…read morelate 3 minutes outside of our reservation grace time so we had to wait outside for a while (this part was fair). However we realized quickly EVERYONE was waiting outside and they had clearly overbooked or had some issue. Finally, after waiting 20 minutes we were sat. The waittress was kind and let us know the kitchen was having some issues so food would be a little delayed between courses. It was about 60 degrees outside and we kindly asked to turn off the outside fans which were on full blast. Once. Then again, and again, and again. After 5 attempts asking various people we gave up and the waitress let us know she couldnt turn them off because their iPad control died. We werent upset at this we were just upset we kept getting different answers and no explanation for our entire 2+ hr meal. We finished the entree and were waiting for the dessert for about 15 minutes until we finally just flagged down a waittress and asked to get the check and desert to go because we were ready to leave. We waited another 10 minutes before someone else brought us our desert but no check. We asked them for the check and then the original waitress came back with our check and another set of deserts. At some point I saw another server who seemed like the manager or supervisor telling another worker to straighten the tables outside so the corners were aligned... needless to say the table alignment was not the issue. Overall just seemed like the restaurant was overwhelmed and there wasn't alot of communication between tables and the staff. It seems the staff was trying their best but the management wasn't handling it well. Would have appreciated more effort into making sure we were taken care of considering the meal for 2 totaled almost 300$. The only reason this isn't a one star is because of the kind waiting staff.

As far as the food, we had the fried mozzarella, which was essentially a log of cheese deep-fried and served over sauce. It was delicious, but the cheese-to-crust ratio was a bit heavy. The Caesar salad looked better than it tasted. It was very wet, if that makes sense, and the lettuce seemed soggy. Now for the Wagyu ragu. This almost made me have a seizure, and not in a good way. It was extremely salty and completely inedible, so we had to send it back. The waitstaff was very accommodating and agreed that the salt level was way off, so we replaced it with the carbonara. I'm not sure if that's what authentic carbonara is supposed to taste like, but I did not enjoy it. It tasted burnt to me and had too much pepper. I also didn't care for the shape of the noodles. Last, we had the Americano pizza. It was decent, but nothing to write home about. I just think that if you're going to advertise a pizza with meat on it, there should be more than one piece of sausage per slice. As far as the service, our server was fine. Not particularly friendly, but straightforward and efficient. The manager (or another server) was helpful when it came to replacing our dish. Overall, I would not go back. The location is great and the vibe is nice, but the food was a miss. Save your money and go somewhere else.
