Loved the atmosphere and food! Staff was friendly and welcoming! The Italian grooms cake is amazing!

Restaurant is outdated. Partially in the cool old way and partially in the cringy way. The eggplant was oversaturated with sauce and your option of either pasta or salad is odd. read more

This was my first ever Italian restaurant as a little girl and now that I am almost 40yo, it has maintained its low prices with its fantastic charm! They have the candles in Chianti bottles with multilayered colors of wax with the red and white checkered tablecloth to make you feel like you are in that scene in Lady and the Tramp! The food is affordable yet classically delicious. Their marinara sauce is perfection and makes their simple spaghetti something you will crave late at night for years to come! However, the real magic is in their spumoni! If you leave without trying some, you are truly cheating yourself out of something special! read more

We are from out of town and wanted to eat at the local place. Fettuccini Alfredo with seafood. Because the price was inexpensive I should have known. Crab was the imitation crab but I didn't mind. Sauce was very creamy and rich but I like that. The most I liked was I LOVE temperature hot! Bubbly and kept it warm till last bite!!! Go early because it fills up fast! read more

My wife and I visited Luigi's in Midland on a Thursday night after hearing good things from friends. I want to start by saying the staff was genuinely friendly, and our waitress in particular was kind, attentive, and handled an uncomfortable situation with professionalism. Unfortunately, the food and overall quality of the experience fell far short of expectations. I ordered an Italian margarita, which was extremely sweet and noticeably weak. My wife ordered a glass of wine and the outside of the glass was sticky, which immediately raised concerns about cleanliness. For dinner, I ordered the cannelloni, but the meat filling tasted old--so much so that I couldn't continue eating it. I had to send it back, and while the waitress was very understanding, the fact that it tasted that way was unsettling. Wanting to play it safe, I switched to a pizza to go, only to discover that the Italian sausage on it also tasted old. At that point, we were honestly just hoping we wouldn't get sick. My wife ordered Luigi's Favorite (spaghetti with meat sauce topped with onions and bell peppers). The issue wasn't the concept of the dish--it was that the onions and peppers were almost completely raw, not sautéed or softened at all, which made the dish unpleasant. The atmosphere is cozy and candlelit, but the food quality reminded us of a dimly lit Fazoli's rather than a restaurant with this reputation. With the concerns about freshness, flavor, and basic kitchen execution, it's hard not to imagine this place appearing on an episode of Gordon Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares. We really wanted to like Luigi's, especially given the warm service, but the food simply wasn't fresh or well-prepared. I hope the restaurant takes steps to improve, because the staff deserves better and the potential is there. read more

Love the food, service, and ambiance!! Parking can be challenging...but a great date night spot!!

This place has nostalgia. The food for one is amazing and second to none. From the cheese pizza to the spaghetti deluxe no one comes close. This place is full of memories and great midland history. Run by the most professional manager I've ever seen. And the staff treats you like family. read more

Came in on a Saturday night and we luckily got a parking spot, very difficult parking situation. We walked in through the front, many people were sitting in the bar waiting area and standing between the host and front door. After a few minutes, we realized they were takeout orders waiting so we walked up and put our name down for a table for 2. Then a couple behind us put their name down. Well they bring out a bunch of to go orders and let a large Prom group sit, then like 15 minutes go by and a family walks right on in and asks for a table- the other host doesn't even look at the list and seats them immediately. I brought it up with them and they apologized, sat 3 more groups then us and the couple behind us. Smh. I was going to give one star just for that. Waitress was awesome, food was great. She made up for the unorganized host and hostess. Just have one person up there? And make to go orders wait in the bar. read more

I have been wanting to go here to eat many times, but never did, and I talked to a coworker who said he'd like to place. So tonight I went, the parking is extremely limited, but you can still find lots of parking in and around. That's pretty accessible. The place is very quaint and warm feeling, it remind you of a really nice authentic Italian restaurant. Service was great and the food was just as good, I had the stuffed manicotti with a side of spaghetti with marinara sauce. And then for dessert I had tiramisu great place can't wait to go here again. If you like good Italian food and atmosphere then try it out. read more

First time trying this place. We ordered online. The pizza and cheese bread were cold even after waiting an extra 5 mins on the food order. Both looked and tasted mediocre. They forgot the chicken on the Chicken Caesar Salad. The 1/2 spaghetti 1/2 Ravioli was flavorless. Drenched in a tomato sauce. The beef filling in the ravioli was more of a soggy mush. Really had high hopes for this place. Might give it another try and Dine in. read more

I enjoyed the Spaghetti on top of the ravioli, half an half. Definitely will be ordering from them again. Good pasta and sauce

Luigi's is a fabulous family restaurant. The food is delicious! The staff are friendly and welcoming! We visited on a recent trip through Midland with a large group. It was a wonderful experience. I will definitely visit again when traveling through Midland. read more

The service was great. I received a large portion of spaghetti. I had to take half of it home! The staff is friendly.

We just pulled into town last night and decided to get takeout. Between the 4 of us, we tried the lasagna, manicotti, spaghetti, and the chicken alfredo. All in all, it was an adequate meal. Portions were good. The garlic bread tasted stale and was hard as a rock. The red sauce was lacking in flavor, but overall, it was not bad. The alfredo sauce was super watery and lacked flavor. The lettuce in the salad was half brown, which was a huge turn-off. I think we would give it another chance dining in-house, but none of us were thoroughly impressed. For a $70.00 meal, I expected more... read more

This restaurant is an Italian icon. This family's dining experience is impeccable, as is the service. The very best that Midland has to offer bar none!!! Highly recommended to locals & visitors from any part of the country! read more

4.5 stars This place has gotten some mixed reviews on here, but it was recommended to us a local favorite from a lady that worked at the George W. Bush childhood home tour. (Little did I know, it was also touted after the fact by a friend that used to live in the area). And, it did not disappoint! This place was buzzing with lunchtime patrons last Wednesday and had the authentic red and white checkered table cloths. The single use restrooms were clean. Our waitress was super sweet and kept calling us "sweet hearts". My friend got the cup of minestrone and chicken parmigiana, other friend got the eggplant parmigiana, and our other friend the cannelloni. It took a little while to get our food, maybe it was the pizza oven or the busy-ness of the restaurant, but the fresh bread was a nice added touch. But, as soon as the food hit the table, there was silence (maybe it was also the fact that we had gotten an early start and had only had Clif bars for breakfast). I had gotten the build your own half pizza for $12.69 (and my tiny appetite) with sausage, pepperoni, mushrooms, and black olives. The kind waitress even asked if I had wanted a side of ranch when it was brought to the table (mine took a bit longer than the others). She must've been reading my mind! The cheese was melty and there were only a few pieces of (thin) crust left on my plate when I was done. 2021 #26 read more

This is an amazing Italian restaurant. We love the Alfredo sauce it's to die for. Our family also likes the meat lovers pizza and many of their soups as well. Had the manicotti a few months back and it was great as well. Simply one of the best in Midland. Parking is a challenge, but it's worth the hassle for the quality of the experience. read more

I ordered a chicken Caesar salad and close to the bottom of my salad. I took a bite and something was crunchy and tasted nasty. I spit it out and there's a whole lady bug in my salad. first of all, salad and dressing was bland and my company wasn't too happy with the food. added so much salt and nothing happened. also, packing for to go ordered need to be better, they're cardboard and sauces leak out. service was okay but it's pretty disgusting to have bugs in your food. read more

I'll try to summarize quickly -Ordered 6 pizzas at 6 PM online for my family that was in town -Said they would be ready at 7 PM -Got to restaurant at 6:50 PM. -Had multiple parties come in, eat, and leave while I was standing and waiting -Now 7:30 PM -Got offered a margarita (since I had been waiting so long) that was sent back to the bar by someone at a table that was eating. I passed on that extremely thoughtful gesture /s -Got pizzas in my hand at 7:45 PM. -Didn't even get a 5% off coupon for next time. Just a 'sorry for the wait' -Pizza was fine, but I can't go back here because of how bad of experience it was. read more

A great place for a pizza. One of these days I'm going to sit down to eat. Then I'll give my full review. """""""UPDATE"""" I have to go from four stars to three. The food was good. I ordered the spaghetti and meat balls. The spaghetti was cooked the way they're meant to be cooked. The sauce was lacking flavor. But, you can taste the hints of the spices. The bad thing was the meatballs. I don't understand why store bought meatballs are used. You can taste the distinctive freezer taste. I highly recommend finding someone who can make fresh noodles to go with the sauce y'all use. read more

I was expecting better food from a "hole in the wall" but I did not get it. We stopped in on a Friday evening around 630. Had to park across the street. No wait fortunately and our server was pretty good overall. But the food was slightly above average at best. My wife ordered the spaghetti and meatballs. It came with a big heaping plate of dpaghetti and a pretty tasty, slightly sweet spaghetti sauce. The joke was it only came with two smaller than golf-ball size meatballs. And they weren't that good either. My entrée was the chicken Parmesan. I just thought meh. It was only slightly warm. Really tasteless. Our miniscule dinner salads were okay. The house vinaigrette dressing was a disappointment. I could swear they get their breadsticks from Olive Garden. My nine-year-old had the cheese pizza. It was thin crust and I like the one at Carraba's much better. I don't think will probably go out-of-the-way to eat here again. read more

We're new to Midland and ordered curbside from Luigi's. First time customers. Pickup was a little confusing, as the parking lot is small and just off of a busy road, but the pizza and salad made it all worth it! We ordered a cauliflower crust pizza and chef salad with ranch. Both tasted great. Will be back to dine in! read more

We have eaten here every month for years. The food is good but tonight I was overcharged and I questioned the waitress and was told that I was wrong. I ordered the manicotti with a salad. I was charged $15.30 which should have included the salad. She said no. I looked at the menu after I left and I was right. She overcharged me. We decided that we will not return. My wife and I are teachers and don't make the big bucks like oilfield. It's a shame you lose business over the cost of a salad. Jennifer in station...you can cheat me once but never again!! read more

Place was too cramped. I ordered a salad with thousand island- it was more like thousand island with a dab of lettuce. Literally was swimming in dressing, i couldn't enjoy it. Their margarita pizza was tasteless and needed more sauce. The only reason I ate was because the spaghetti wasn't half bad, but nothing special. The staff was extremely nice, but I would not come back here just because of the food that I experienced. read more

This place is downtown Midland. Its old school charm all the way. It almost feels out of place in this day and age. Its dark and aged, pictures on the wall are yellowing, but tne customer service it bright and friendly. The food came out REALLY fast, so if you get an appetizer, eat it. No time to chat! Like.. GOGOGO!!!!! The portions were small compared to what Im used to getting from an Italian restaurant, but the prices are very reasonable. I thought it was just OK, but my wife said the manicotti was the closest to what her mother makes that shes ever had outside of the home. So I gave it 4 stars based on her dish, that was high praise indeed. Since her mother is an Italian immigrant and makes every dish from scratch. read more
