    We grabbed take out but the dining room looked like a great place for a date night! Have to keep that in mind! I only ordered the cannoli but I would come back for it and order 2! The filling is exactly what you expect even if the shell tasted mass-produced. Definitely coming back for dessert yall!

    Good Food

    Food is amazing, as well as the atmosphere definitely recommend! Service was amazing and they definitely deserved the tip!

    We've order takeout, delivery and dined in here before. Each time did not disappoint, the food is always fresh and the service is quick and friendly. The large pizzas are huge, we eat them for at least 2-3 days lol. The baked Mac and cheese is a hit it was my fav until I had the lasagna, it was so so good! I didn't care for the mozzarella sticks though that's the only thing I would say to pass on. All the pizzas have been great you can't go wrong with any of them. If you dine in they allow you to bring your wine/alcohol it's byob which is nice! I want to try the other pizzas in the future, definitely recommend this spot!

    this place is right down the road from where I work. I caught a break and looked at their menu and was drooling over the BBQ chicken pizza BUT their CLASSIC with garlic and fresh basil caught my eye; so I got half-and-half... BRO The CLASSIC was SOOO good that I ate the entire half in one sitting. I want MORE. The flavor made love to my mouth! I'm not even being paid to say it! it is AMAZING! Do yourselves a favor and try it - half-and-half if you mus, but trust me when I say: you will order it again

    Really decent pizza! They specialize in thin crust, it seems? Which is fine by me. Family of 4 adults and 2 children shared 4 large pizzas and since they were so thin, we actually only left with a med size box full of leftovers, surprisingly. We had the scorcher (highly recommend), the Hawaiian (another favorite), the classic (subbed pepperoni for the chicken, definitely suggest that), and cheese for the kiddos. The scorcher was the favorite all around, it sounds...interesting; spicy red sauce, chicken, corn, jalapeños, red onion, and cilantro. But, man was it delicious! The Hawaiian is not typical either, in addition to ham and pineapple, it also had dried cranberries and cashews, unique and full of flavor! The classic was my husband's favorite, he's a simple pepperoni guy so we subbed the chicken with pepperoni, perfect amount of roasted garlic and basil. Really enjoyed the food, the ambience was very casual, order at the counter, get your own cutlery and drinks (do I need to tip if all you're doing is bringing my food out?) overall would recommend.

    Copy of Order received by Palio's thru Yelp and bottom of order clearly says "no cashews"

The atmosphere is bellissimo--luxurious yet relaxed, with chic décor and whimsical touches like sculptural trees and delicate birds that add unexpected charm. The menu is consistently excellent.

The Caesar salad is simple, fresh, and impeccably done. Make sure you save room for dolci--the dessert bar in the back is both stunning and indulgent. The bar is equally impressive.

This wasn't black polish, but whatever it was it looked scary, and not hygienic! The mushroom Alfredo pasta was just okay! The large oversized sliced portobello mushrooms thrown on top of the pasta just didn't present well, and not to mention that my salad had a piece of black hair in it...by the way my hair is blonde. When it comes to food, presentation is everything, even down to the person serving you your food and drinks. I know we live in a society where, sadly, it seems like anything goes, but I think restaurants need to maintain higher standards than a fast food place. Don't get me wrong, even fast food places should do the same! Final note: I just can't get over being served by Dracula, even though he was very nice!

When they hit, they are genuinely enjoyable. That said, the menu is uneven. Some dishes are just fine, and a few were disappointing enough that I would not order them again. The bigger issue is value. The pricing feels aggressive for Frisco, especially given the portion sizes. Three small meatballs for $23 is hard to justify. The seafood risotto is $37, but the seafood itself feels underwhelming: very small shrimp, tiny scallops, and a few clams and mussels. It does not feel like the quality or quantity of ingredients matches the price point. Maybe they brought California pricing to Frisco, but at these prices, I expect more: better ingredients, more generous portions, and flavors that feel memorable rather than just decent. Overall, there are a few good dishes here, but the value proposition is difficult to defend.

The hostess added us to the list and said they would send a text once our table was ready. She even read our phone number back to us. We waited outside and 30 minutes went by before we went back inside to see how much longer. Yea, they somehow didn't actually add us to the list. There were plenty of tables available by then and they gave us a table immediately. We placed our order and after receiving everything except the penne alla vodka and waiting almost 20 minutes after we'd gotten everything, I asked where our pasta was. Our waiter said it should've come out long ago and he would check. Somewhere along the line, it was forgotten. Either it was never put in or the kitchen staff lost it. It ended up being on a completely separate bill because they had to put it in again. By this point, we were over this dinner experience. An extra hour had been added on due to no fault of our own. So why am I giving it 4 stars? Because the manager made it right. Patrick, the manager, came over to our table to talk to us. We politely explained how this evening was a failure across multiple points and he was very apologetic and comped our entire $50 meal. I wasn't expecting that as I had already given our waiter my credit card and he already ran it. We weren't looking for a free meal, we just wanted to give him honest feedback about how things went wrong. Because he took the time to chat with us, I wouldn't hesitate to return. This experience had never happened before there so I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and say it was just a rough night for folks. As for the food, the pepperoni pizza and chicken soup were delicious. The short rib comes pretty much comes in soup, but it was fall of the bone tender. The penne alla vodka that we waited so long for missed the mark. It was incredibly sour and mushy. We've gotten the bolognese and pappardelle pastas before and those were both excellent.
