    Reviews were great so had to go. Jennifer was my server and she opened with a huge smile and was super friendly and attentive. Walked me through the menu. Nice setting and cute spot that was a repurposed Victorian style home. Super cool with great mood music in background. Started with olive and parmesan focaccia with a cesar salad. The focaccia was so good. It was warm, crisp exterior and nice soft and moist in the middle. The olive and parmesan paired very well. Excellent Cesar. The romaine was slightly roasted. All the toppings were moderate and all the moderation resulted in a great combination. The mix of the tomatoes, cucumber, parmesan chip, anchovies and cesar dressing combined perfectly. Nice job. Entree was the ricotta gnocchi. Freshly made, asparagus, tomatoes, mushrooms and spinach and shrimp swimming in a yummy white wine butter sauce. It come topping with fresh parmesan. I asked for a bit of fresh pepper and red pepper. What a treat. I skipped the dessert but I'm sure it was yummy. Ok Huntsville is on a roll. 3rd 5 star and second in a row. Great Job Mazzara

    Mussels with chorizo
    Emily E.

    Amazing! So happy I found this place!! Hands down the best shrimp scampi I have ever had. Pictured also is the mussels w chorizo, fried artichoke salad, homemade onion bread, and veal Parmesan. Has a great ambience and our server (sorry I forgot his name) was amazing and gave us great recommendations. My husband and I cannot wait to go back to this restaurant

    ABSOLUTELY one of the best experiences I've had at a restaurant. First of all, they were busy so make sure you book a reservation! My friend and I were lucky enough to score a bar top as a walk in. Our bartender, Pita (I hope I spelled that right) was such a joy. It was my first time so I told her to just surprise me the entire time. She gave me a wine spritzer to start off the night, recommended the mozzarella and meatball appetizer. She then told me that the veal Parmesan was to die for so naturally I got that AND the tiramisu...holy moly!!! Melted right in my mouth. There were a bunch of regulars there which means they have really mastered their craft of customer service and experience! The vibe of the place truly feels like home (literally because the building is a house!) you walk in and you instantly feel like part of the family!

    Fettuccine Alfredo

    Different take on Italian food. It was really good. Free street parking after 5 We had Fettuccine Alfredo which was fairly typical of all the higher end restaurants in town. Enjoyed a YELLOWFIN TUNA CARPACCIO appetizer. Caesar salad. Interesting in that they appeared to have grilled the lettuce. The dressing was good. The anchovies were white and whole. Shrimp Scampi appetizer was good. (I got charged for the scampi dinner but it was good so I didn't want to make it an issue. ) Neat old house. A lot of the dining is upstairs and they don't have an elevator.

    Ceaser salad .
    Shannon J.

    My food was good the pork cheek on the ragatoni was a good Touch to the meal and the ceased salad Is really good and beautiful . However not the biggest fan of the masala not sure if I understand the brussel sprouts In a cream sauce i think maybe capers or pancetta would be a better decision but it's a personal preference . The historic house was beautiful and the music in the back ground was a great to have in the back ground .

    Lemon cheesecake & tiramisu
    Erica D.

    A fantastic selection of authentic Italian dishes. The customer service is always impeccable. For lunch or dinner, you will always find something delicious to enjoy. Located downtown in a Victorian house, it's a great place for a special occasion, business meeting or a casual lunch. Also a wonderful space to hold a rehearsal dinner or bridal luncheon.

    Homemade pasta....wine flights for $18...SIGN ME UP! Nothing bad to say about the Huntsville gem. The service is great, the establishment provides a cute and calm ambiance and the food is amazing. I'd definitely come back when I visit for work.

    Chicken Alfredo

    Food needed a touch of salt but was great. Great atmosphere and staff! I would go back.

    Picture speaks for itself!!! Delicious!! Visiting from California and found this gym near my hotel! If I ever find myself back in huntsville, I will definitely be back.

    We are new to the area and so glad we found this place. Everything was so amazing! Our server Patrick made my birthday extra special. Food was so amazing and so was the service. We got to meet the general manger who was so welcoming to us. We have definitely found our new place to go. Already looking forward to our next visit.

    Meatballs and pasta

    Food was amazing. Very nice vibe and experience without breaking the bank. Food and service was excellent!! This is definitely a hidden gem.

    Lemoncelli Cake
    Netta M.

    Service and food were great. Our server was so kind and went above and behind to ensure our satisfaction. We tried a variety of things - PEI Mussels, Meatballs & Pasta, Shrimp Scampi, Mushroom Risotto, Tiramisu, Lemoncelli Cake, Lemon Cheesecake, Chocolate Genache Brownie and some wine flights. The only downside of our visit was it was a bit noisey amongst the bigger group of diners that we shared the dining room with. We were a small group, a table of 3, so it was kinda difficult to hear one another and our server.

We were greeted when we entered and were given some instructions but I must admit, I was a little lost. I was told there was some outside seating (all of the tables/chairs were taken inside) so since this was my first time visiting, I wish there were signs or maybe the hostess could have showed us specifically where to go because oops, I accidentally opened a door that appeared to be an office. Someone saw us and we probably looked lost to them and so they were nice enough to show us the outside area which had a singer who sung some Frank Sinatra songs. He was very talented and appealed to the audience. To our surprise, we saw behind us a table for the tastings. I asked the server for a champagne card so I could take notes and view the prices, but she said when we entered, we should have received one. So I went back to the front and asked the people at the door for the champagne card and they stated that they were printing them, and that they will hand them out a little later. Also I wondered about my brunch that was paid for separately and they said they will come and find me when it was ready. I am glad that we were able to find a table because now I am wondering if we couldn't, how would we have eaten our food. In my opinion, tables should have been reserved for customers who ordered food. Also I wasn't sure how they were keeping up with which customer showed up first because we weren't given a number or anything to show that we ordered food and what our number in line was. At first glance, they seemed unorganized. But as the time progressed they did eventually bring out the champagne cards and they apologized for the lateness of us receiving our food. As the event was coming to an end, one of the workers gave us info on future wine tastings and when they have a live band. All in all, we enjoyed the experience despite it seeming to be unorganized at times, but will definitely come back and visit soon. P.S. The champagne was great! Even bought a bottle. Also the brunch tray was delicious. Hats off to the chef! That whipped goat cheese with orange marmalade was amazing!

Sorority sister and I came to Charlie Foster's to get a glass of vino after dinner at El Caz. The majority of wine cellars/wine shoppes/wine centric places are extremely friendly, not tethered to a chair, and very engaging because, it's wine after all, and most wine lovers love nothing more than talking about wines! Rather than look over a wine list, I just asked for a glass of pinot grigio. The young man gave me the saddest pour I have seen in my life, again, in the requisite plastic purple Solo cup, and guess what this regrettable purchase cost me? $12.00. For a little more than double that cost, at about $26.00 I can get an entire bottle of Italian pinot grigio at Nick's ristorante, which is 4 *full* glasses!!!! Originally, I wanted to see what kinds of wines they had for sale; however, after this very transactional and impersonal interaction, I was ready to leave. I would suggest that management/owners train their personnel on wines and have them attend actual wine tastings with a sommelier and learn a few talking points about the various types and vineyards they represent. Staff should mingle with patrons to see what the person is interested in (would they like a dry white wine bottle to drink inside, a purple cup "to go," or several bottles for an upcoming event) and encourage things both that the customer prefers or is just outside the customer's comfort zone and peaks the patron's interest. I would also suggest they select staff who actually have a personality.

    Seriously tough call on the rating here. I think I'll settle on a 3 but it was super close to a 4,…read morejust several minor frustrations added up. I came here with one of my best friends who was home for Thanksgiving to have a girl's day out. BeeZr advertises a nice-looking brunch on the weekends so we thought we'd try it out. She wound up not being able to meet until later in the afternoon but I'm not opposed to a late brunch, so we got there around 1. It was a gray and dreary day on Thanksgiving weekend, so I get it being slow, but the restaurant was literally empty except for us and the servers. We joked it was because we'd rented the whole building to treat each other. The vibe is...fine inside. It definitely looks and feels more like a brewery than a restaurant, with large equipment and a sort of dimly lit atmosphere and a few large TVs by the nice bar. They have a small patio on the square which is REALLY lovely and definitely would've been my preference if the weather was nicer. Our server was okay. He was soft-spoken and not unpleasant, but did sort of have a knack for appearing at inopportune times during the conversation. I get that it's not always possible to avoid, but a little more discretion would've gone a long way, especially since we were the only ones in there. Our food and drinks came out in a timely manner. My biggest frustration was definitely the menu and item availability. I pre-read it and came knowing what I wanted (bananas foster French toast) only to discover that they were running a limited Thanksgiving weekend brunch menu and therefore it wasn't being offered that day. The first thing my friend ordered also wasn't available. I had my heart set on brunch so I asked for the breakfast burrito instead. Our waiter had to go check and make sure the kitchen could do it. Turns out they could - yay. But then I asked for potatoes to go with it -- and there were no breakfast potatoes available. I went with fries instead. When my burrito arrived at the table, there was no salsa or sour cream, which was supposed to come with it. Any component part of this experience is not a HUGE deal, but it all added up to be rather disappointing. My friend got the bulgogi tacos, which came in an order of two sort of small tacos. She liked them and said they were really good. She also got first a French mimosa and then a classic mimosa; I also had a classic mimosa. Both were generic but enjoyable. My breakfast burrito was decent, but I really missed the salsa and sour cream. The bacon inside was cut into tiny crunchy pieces, which I liked. The eggs were cooked very well but needed more salt and pepper. I enjoyed the bright burst of peppers and some were even a tiny bit spicy. It was a large serving but I wish it came with some side item instead of me having to order one. The side of fries was generous and they were really good -- super crispy but still fluffy inside. I thought the bill was a little high for 1 mimosa, a breakfast burrito, and fries -- almost $40. The burrito alone was $18, which seems like sooooo much for a brunch entree with no sides. Idk. Maybe I don't do mid-scale dining enough. Overall, I thought the quality of the food was solid enough that I'd consider returning, but I'd call ahead to see if they had what I wanted to avoid frustration.

Staff was very accommodating,…read moreseating us upstairs immediately and making sure we had plenty of tables, chairs, plates, etc. I will note that the upstairs is HOT so they had industrial sized fans (eek!), but I think that's just do to the building.

They have outdoor seating if that's your thing, service is good, and they really try hard. I'd go back.

I thought initially it was the tartar that overpowered the cake and that is partially true. I did try a bite without the tartar and it was still a tad on the bland side. The wings had a great fry and smoke flavor as well. They were a bit overcooked and dry. The Alabama sauce was real good and added needed moisture to the wings.

I decided to give it another shot. Saturday night, 6pm and the restaurant was nearly empty. I asked for a gluten free menu. They didn't have one. But what they had was even better. Emma, our server, went through every menu item and told me what was safe, what could be modified and what to stay away from. Her knowledge of the menu was stellar and something that's lacking in most restaurants. One of my hang ups during my last visit was being served an old fashioned when I ordered a Sazerac. I asked Emma, who apologized as she told me they were out of absinthe. She not only knew the food menu but also the drink menu. Emma, you are a light in a dining arena full of mediocre. I ordered the scallops and risotto. The plate arrived with 4 large scallops. It's not uncommon for large scallops to be gummy with a soapy, not sweet flavor. My scallops were the exact opposite. They were perfect. The creamy, slightly sweet/slightly salty risotto was the perfect accompaniment. The accompanying broccolini was a miss - it was extremely bitter. Unpleasantly so. My husband had the pot roast ragout. He said it was alright - everything was hot but the potatoes. They were cold - he said it threw him off and just wasn't very enjoyable. He did enjoy the cheese biscuits and the bit of mine that I was willing to share. One way I judge a restaurant is by whether I'd come back. I posed that question to him. He said it was worth another try. Service was on point - Emma was a rock star in my book. The wine and beer were at a perfect temperature and the wine pour was generous. Co/Op is in the Embassy Suites. Parking was easy and free tonight; but, depending on what's going on in town, you can't count on that. Two entrees, two drinks and tip was upward of $120. Expensive? Yes, but the scallops and service were so good that I didn't even blink. Will I be back? Undoubtably.
