    Where's the roast beef?

    Disappointing! Took 30 minutes to get a water & soda. Ordered an appetizer (cherrystone size stuffed quahog) with our meal and it came out AFTER the pizza. Never offered a soda refill, though glass was empty halfway thru the meal. Roast beef grinder was sparse, to the point of having to open the roll to see what was in it. *The Big Mac pizza was very good, the only thing that we would recommend from this visit, but it was $30. Waitress never checked back with us. Had to ask twice for a leftover box, which we packaged ourselves. Then waited and had to ask for the bill. We were given two bills with no explanation until asked - one cash amount, one credit card amount. Again she disappeared and had to be tracked down in the kitchen to be given the cash. I left a tip, which I regretted once I walked out. Tipping is based on service, which I can't say I got. Could have said something, but I would've had to find her first

    1 star -- A masterclass in how NOT to run a restaurant. Where do I even begin with Laurino's? We came in excited to enjoy a nice dinner and left hangry, frustrated, and honestly confused how this place is still in business. Let's start with the service: we waited over 35 minutes just to get our drinks. No check-in, no "we'll be right with you"--we were basically invisible. When the drinks finally did arrive, my friend's Miami Vice was fully melted into a sad pink soup, and not even layered like a real Miami Vice. I don't know what that drink was, but it wasn't what she ordered. Now the food... or should I say, the food that never showed up? We ordered a pretty standard amount--an entrée per person and two appetizers to share--and somehow, items still went missing. Fries and clam chowder never even made it to the table. One salad did arrive, but that was another disaster. We specifically asked for no feta and dressing on the side. What we got was feta on the side (???) and absolutely no dressing at all. My friend had ordered lobster on her salad, and after bringing out a plain one, the server casually mentioned that the chef had said "no lobster," as if that had been communicated at any point. So now we had a dry, plain salad with a side of cheese we didn't want, and no dressing. Oh--and let's not forget the oysters. They came out completely plain. No horseradish, no cocktail sauce, no ketchup, no vinegar--literally nothing. Just a plate of raw oysters sitting sadly on their own like they were being punished. Every part of this meal was a letdown. Disorganized, slow, and unbothered staff, melted cocktails, missing food, ignored instructions, and flavorless presentation--it was actually impressive how many ways this went wrong. The one silver lining? The martinis were so strong, it almost felt like they were trying to help us forget the whole experience. Mission nearly accomplished. Skip this place. There are plenty of better options nearby that won't waste your time or forget half your order.

    I'm surprised by myself for not having written a review about Laurino's Tavern yet. I started coming here about 35-40 years ago. I'm not sure these days who know how the name Laurinos came to be... a Laural and a Mario came together and started the restaurant that is just up the street from Nickerson State Park on 6A. I graduared Nauset Regional High School with one of the second generation and this was well before the bar became the bar it is today. Until then it was just the window in the back of the kitchen. I went with my mom to pick up pizza so I could play the Space Invaders or Asteroid games. At any rate, Laurino's is a lower Cape mainstay Italian restaurant and bar. So... let me put out there that I am biased. Laurino's formed many of my childhood expectations on things like pizza and grinders (not subs, hogies or sandwiches). Their sausage and mushroom grinder is my favorite.... then any pizza. I want to try the Big Mac someday. Today, pepperoni. If I lived closer I'd get satisfied with these and be able to move on to their true calling, Italian entries... especially ones with seafood. BTW, always have a stuffed quohog to get things rolling. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The bar is so comfortable, you can spend hours and hours here[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. I have... we used to call it, "going up the hill." Service, pricing and quality are at a superior level.... always. Again, I'm biased. When someone asks me where my local bar is, it's here. Just have to say I'm ashamed ar those who posted sub 5 stars... sub 4... sub 3... who are you? Probably a washashore from somewhere off Cape... NY? NJ? Quebec? Lol.

    We've been to Laurino's many times over the years when on the Cape. Always a good choice for pizza. This time, my husband had the baked scallops and I had the lobster rolls. He said they were some of the best scallops he's ever had. My order came with two lobster rolls and they were delicious. And the prices were very reasonable for the quality and quantity of the food. Service was also very good.

    Outdoor space

    The clam chowder was great, potato skins were great and not too greasy which is good, service was great, [[HIGHLIGHT]]the ambiance was awesome.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall it was a very pleasant experience. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They could buy some citronella plants to deter mosquitos outside but it was fine and that's not worth deducting a star.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Large Pizza (pick your own) with linguica + green pepper + spinach + basil

    Laurino's is a family/homestyle restaurant that surprised me tbh. In first reading the reviews I was a little apprehensive about going there, but my mom lives down the street and was very insistent we go to support a local business. We ordered a large pizza to share, and I really enjoyed it. Obviously it's not NY style pizza - they make homestyle pizza (coming out on a sheet pan) with thicker crust. I liked we were able to pick our own toppings on it, and the linguica is a must have as a topping. I'm really happy with what we got. The dough probably could have gone for another minute or two, but the sauce and toppings were good! Other pros: The outdoor patio was really nice and perfect with the weather. Service (and our waitress) was quick and our waitress was really good. Cons: They charge more if it's not cash(add 3 or 4%) on top of the price - is this legal in Mass?

    Chicken carbonara (with tortellini) amazing!

    So many choices and they are all delicious. We tried the grilled salmon, chicken carbonara, eggplant parmigiana and the pizza. All were 10s!

Although he was busy in the kitchen, I was told he'd be happy to come out during the off-season, which I thought was a thoughtful and gracious gesture. An outstanding dining experience from start to finish. Highly recommended!

We visited Leonessa in 2023 however. We always consider this meal one of the top 5 best meals we ever had, maybe even the best. It may have been perfect timing paired with the kitchen and staff being top notch or just the way the world was spinning that night but it was 10/10. The polenta fries with the truffle aiola was a great pairing with the amatriciana we got for starters. The pork chop is one of the two best pork chops I ever had. I typical order a pork chop when dining out so I have a good list of places to order one and this one sits at the top. My Wife ordered the roasted chicken. Chicken can sometimes be just, chicken. Well, when done correctly it can be a lot more. Best chicken dish my Wife has ordered although, we do tend to stay away from ordering basic chicken dishes. However, it was highly recommended and it did not disappoint. The service was 10/10 and all of their recommendations were spot on, including the wine.

    On our way up the Cape for a little lighthouse-hopping adventure, we made a lunchtime stop at Cibo,…read moreand wow--this place is the real Italian deal. The second I walked through the door, I knew we were in for something authentic. The air was filled with the unmistakable smell of fresh sauce, garlic, and quality ingredients. The vibe? Warm, casual, and confidently no-frills in the best way. When my boyfriend's mom asked for mayo and was kindly offered a side of house-made marinara instead, we knew we had struck Italian gold. I ordered the Caprese panini, and while I didn't love the bread at first glance, it surprised me--it was light enough to let the real stars shine: creamy, fresh mozzarella and that incredible homemade pesto. I actually finished the whole sandwich (a rare feat when most leave me full of nothing but bread). My boyfriend (and his parents) devoured their sandwiches without a word, leaving only a few crumbs and a slightly smug expression. We also split an arancini ball for just $5--and it was hefty. Flavorful and golden, though the cheese inside could've used a bit more melt inside. Still worth it, especially at that price. Cibo offers both made-to-order paninis and a full spread of pre-prepared Italian dishes that looked straight out of Nonna's kitchen. Think: lasagna, pastas, cold salads, and a take-and-bake section with house-made pasta and sauces. The gourmet coffee bar smelled like heaven and used fresh ingredients--no plastic creamer pods in sight. Even the dessert case looked like it had stories to tell. Aside from some Cape Cod chips and bottled Coke, everything here felt distinctly and proudly Italian. This is a spot that knows exactly what it is and does it well. 10/10 would detour for this place again.

Unfortunately I was quite disappointed when I went today for a panini to go. The paninis used to be amazing and a true treat. Today's Italian panini had exactly one thin slice of ham, one thin slice of salami and once thin slice of mortadella on it. For a $17 sandwich, I would have expected way more meat and the bread/meat made me barely taste any protein. Hopefully the new team can adjust and do better in the future.

When I couldn't decide on a cocktail, Sandra readily recommended the Grapefruit Martini -- it was delicious and totally the right call, Hubby's Tito's Cosmo was also well-made. For dinner, Hubby had the Chicken Parm - it was enormous and delicious, chicken was cooked well and the homemade pasta was a perfect al dente. The sauce was very good, but there was too much cheese for his taste, an easy fix to move to the side. There was plenty to take home for a second meal so it was an even better value. I chose the Spinach Salad, which was fresh and tasty with artichokes and goat cheese. Again, it was a generous portion for a very good price.
