    I do not come here often, but when I do I always enjoy it. I would describe their food as "comfort food." Rich & creamy! Love their pink sauce. The restaurant is homey and relatively casual. Dimly lit inside for the ambiance, but it's nothing fancy! Service was okay the past few times I've gone.

    Free bread and olive oil with herbs

    Dads option for his birthday dinner. This place is a Diamond in the Rough! IYKYK- kinda place. Abilenes little secret. Seriously. Don't judge a book by its cover. Luigi's Little Italy is absolutely fantastic. The service was excellent the food was amazing. Im shocked I went all these years without ever trying this restaurant. It's quaint. Quiet. And pretty perfect.

    Vegi Stromboli is delicious
    Angie C.

    plenty of parking, great menu and the Stromboli was delicious. The crust was perfect and the cheese and vegis were perfect. The marinara sauce is good! It taste homemade, great job! Bravo finally good Stromboli. I look forward to trying another dish. Thank you. I also ordered a side salad, make sure you check because even though she asked me what dressing I wanted, it was the wrong one. Check your order before leaving. Definitley a good spot

    Veal Picatta practically licked his plate clean.

    So let's start a little before we get to the restaurant. I dropped by my sister's house and she asked where we were going. I told her we were going to Little Italy because we've never been there. She actually scowled at me! I said what? She then tells me that she Doesn't like the flavor. I'm like whatevs cause I want to try it. The first thing we noticed were the delicious desserts in the cooler by the register! They were very polite and courteous. Asked if we wanted a table or booth. With 3 men and myself we definitely needed a table. They came and took our drink order, then came back very promptly. She took the appetizer order. Please look at the pictures I posted. There is detailed information on each thing that was ordered. Needless to say, it was a very enjoyable dining experience. I highly recommend trying this wonderful piece of Italy.

    Very atmospheric decorations inside, delicious and fairly priced food, and very polite and welcoming staff. Tried their calzone, Stromboli and their bread with house dressing and it was all good.

    This place is 10/10. Yummy food and the service was amazing. The Restaurants ambience was great as well. I would totally recommend.

    Clam Linguine with wine lemon butter sauce.

    Little Italy's is so much better than the other Italian options in town in my opinion. Very reasonable prices and the food is always very consistent. I love ordering the bread with a side of pink sauce to dip in and the Caprese salad for a start, followed by their very delicious mushroom soup before your entrée, careful though....if you fill up too much on bread, you won't make it to the entrée lol Today I tried their Linguini and clams, and it was very good! I haven't had this dish in a very long time but my first time from here and it was refreshing after all that heavy pink sauce and mushroom soup to have a lighter sauced pasta. Other favorites are the veal cremora, the chicken Florentine, and the marsala, honestly, you can't go wrong with anything on this menu. It's all delicious! We have tried a lot and never disappointed with the food or service!

    Spaghetti with meatballs. This was supreme.

    I had veal removal which was good. My wife was unhappy with chicken marsala. It was changed for to lasagna which was not great.

    Overall meal was good, only complaint was the veal was not lightly breaded and fried, as veal picatta is normally served.

    It's time to update my review again. Brick Oven has made me really go back and forth on my opinion…read moreof them over the years. Is it the best pizza I've ever had, no. Although, it's a unique spot that a lot of people enjoy. A crisp, crunchy crust with fresh toppings! I still love their quesadillas! Really happy with their salad portion size and the almonds as an addition to the house salad. Price for the portion size and quality of their pizzas is still out of range in my opinion. I've had a lot of mixed feeling about their food over the years, and usually don't feel inclined to go back. Our waitress brought our check at the beginning of our meal and to go boxes as well, which is proactive of course, but we felt rushed and confused. We never got to even state that our checks were separate, not together. Our appetizer was brought after we received our meal which was stated to be a mishap with a new chef, but we were not asked if we even wanted it at that point. We were also charged the full price instead of the lunch menu price for it as it should've been. Honestly, it would've been honorary to not be charged for it at all under the circumstances. It was just strange. We all have our off days, but it just added to my distaste for Brick Oven. I wish I had a consistently great experience with them! Here's to hoping for better experiences! Maybe it's just not my cup of tea.

    A hidden gem in Abilene! Never in a million years did I expect to find such great pizza in…read moreAbilene, Texas! We started with the spicy sticks as an appetizer. They were so good that I didn't have a chance to take a picture. These are breadsticks with jalapeños (just the right amount), mozzarella, garlic butter and Parmesan Romano cheese. They are served warm and toasty and with the perfect amount of flavor and spice. The pizza was the "Bubba's" all meat pizza. The crust was a perfectly thin and crispy one that allowed for the variety of meat. Often times, the crust becomes soggy with all the meat, but not here. It was a 10/10 for sure! This was our first time here, so not sure how busy it normally is, but it was very busy this early evening. We waited 5-10 minutes before anyone noticed we were seated and then a few more minutes to get drinks, but nothing to write a negative review over. The food was worth any wait.

    Last night, Vagabond had an amazing win that they weren't even aware of…read more We're friends with a couple who just had their second baby yesterday. The husband is stationed out of Dyess. Neither one of them really knows anything really about what is uniquely available to eat in Abilene. My wife and I were on our way to the hospital after picking up their kid from daycare when we were asked to pick up some dinner. We had offered to get them anything in town to eat while at the hospital. Given how they were new to town, their regular from Dominoes was requested. It was at this point I suggested Vagabond, telling the couple how for years it's been the best. The wife saw the menu and was impressed, eager to try it out. (We ordered 1 Lucia, 1 Carnivore, 2 Crawfish Hand Pies) The order was placed online, right as we left our driveway, I received a text confirming the order, which was followed up 15-20mins later by another one stating it was ready for pickup. It felt fast. As I walked in, I saw the traditional sights: the owner at the front welcoming everyone in, a filled up room with various parties enjoy their food and conversations, a staff working hard and yet ready to serve. I was told by the owner to go up to the bar where my order was waiting for me. I was in and out so quickly that I could feel the warm air coming off the pizza as I took it outside to my car. My one regret was not telling the owner on my way out how this meal would be the first meal for a mom who just gave birth. When I got to the hospital, the food was still warm. When both the mother and father had their first bite of the Lucia, they both had that 'wow' reaction to how amazing the taste was. Everything ordered honestly received a 'wow.' It was perfect. I have had Vagabond ever since they were out of a food trailer. Since then, it has been the place I always bring people to, particularly if they are visiting from out of town. It was the place where my wife and I brought our kid for his first restaurant meal. The consistent experience of it all is simply the best. I don't review places often, but last night was special. Never a bad thing to say thank you to a group of people who unknowingly wowed a father and mother in a hospital room. Thank you.

    Just driving through Abilene and serendipitously discovered this amazing place. I wasn't expecting…read moresuch good and reasonably priced pizza in this little corner of Texas. The jalapeno pepper jelly condiment hit the spot! At least one of the employees here is from the East Bay in California. They have a large selection of Californian wines here. I mean that's all they have on their wine menu - California. No wines from anywhere else. Not that I'm complaining.
