It is worth the drive!!! All pastas are made fresh. The staff was so friendly and accommodating! They have a piano player as well...what a treat! I sat in the back corner and took it all in! The food was outstanding, I ordered Linguine Frutti di Mare- homemade linguine ( delicious) served with clams, mussels, scallops? Shrimp, cherry tomatoes, evoo, garluc, parsley cooked in a white wine sauce!!! As you can see I absolutely hated it... lol! I has an expression and lava cake for dessert. The lava cake was a little overcooked- that is the only complaint.... Other than the lady sitting across the table from me that talked loud enough for the whole restaurant to hear her conversation. I wish people would be more observant and realize they don't have to talk so loud when they're sitting at their table it made it difficult to hear the piano player and it went from a relaxing stress free feeling to an annoyance. I was so happy when her food arrived. This place is very special. It's very small. I got in because it was very early in the evening. I believe their doors open at 5 o'clock. I would highly recommend reservations, but if you have a special occasion that you're celebrating, and it appeared that several people did this is worth the drive!

But I'm so glad I was hungry and ordered the lasagna. It's a decent amount of food and I think it was the best Lasagna I've ever had. Seriously. Melted in my mouth and the texture and flavor was amazing. All the pasta and sauces are made in house and I could taste the difference. Delicious. My SO had been thinking about their linguine and clams and was not disappointed. There were fewer clams than the last time (granted it's been a long while now) so it's best for a lite appetite. Service was good and the owner stopped by as well ... from Italy and these are home recipes. Looks like they recently installed new carpet which was nice. Love all the framed pictures especially in the back room. This restaurant is perfect for a special occasion, or an intimate dinner, or for just when you want some authentic great Italian food.

Located in the heart of Fortville on Main St., there is a tiny parking lot in the rear but diagonal…read moreparking for a few blocks either way. I had to walk a bit but it was fine. It was hopping on a Friday night. I had been wanting to come here for a long time.. Everyone I know says this place is really good. This is a 3.5 star review. The bruschetta was 4 pieces and soggy. It was also 15 dollars. They don't serve table bread for free so I ordered some for $4 and it was about 5 1/2 slices of the same bread they used for the bruschetta. It was served with a bowl of oil with balsamic vinegar. I also asked for my pasta to be saucy and the waitress looked at me and she said, do you mean you want extra sauce? So for $2 extra I feel I got a normal amount of sauce so I'm not sure what a regular amount looks like. Unfortunately the pasta was pre-denté. Everyone else's dishes were steaming hot and the pasta was visibly able to be twirled around a fork. Mine was warm and I had to cut it with a spoon and fork just to get it separated for many bites, which were very chewy, almost hard. The ragù was fine. The atmosphere was nice for dinner. I read some other reviews and they are definitely mixed. One of my friends who had been before warned me after I was excited to initially try the cheese wheel pasta, to be careful. She said hers was wet and vodka flavored, so I didn't get it. Similar reviews said the same. I will say the calamari was some of the best I've had lately. Not chewy at all and a lovely light batter, served with tomato sauce. I did find it odd that the sauce was cold. Everyone else seemed to really enjoy their meals so this gets the 3.5 stars.

I Ordered two large 16" pepperoni & cheese, pizzas and 12 bread sticks two additional cheese sauces, which were extra cost. $53.00+! ??? The crust was good, but the pepperoni was ridiculously small about 1/2" , or the size of a quarter About 15 burnt pieces only on each pizza. I assumed they burnt so easily because they were so small because the rest of the pizza was not burnt. For $53 the value is not there and quality. Suggest getting larger & thicker pepperoni and putting enough on there to make the person buying the pizza feel comfortable with the purchase they just made.

I would be like the…read moretwo older ladies who came in while I was there for lunch: They strode in and each picked a white wine from the wall of wines to take home, then sat down and each ordered a chilled bottle of white to drink with their meal. I loved their vibe. Two bottles of wine with lunch! How luxurious. It's these little things that we do for ourselves, while the world crumbles around us, that matter the most. Anyway! A friend turned me on to this place. I love wine, and red wine specifically, so I made a point to visit. I'm so glad I did! 305 Wine Garage is a gem. Like I mentioned, they literally have a wall of wine in the restaurant. Each bottle is labeled with the price, and they have so many different varieties. I sat near the Italian wines because I love Italian wines the most. I treated myself to brunch, which they only offer on weekends. During the winter, they're only open 50% of the weekend (Saturdays), but talking to my server, it sounds like they will open on Sundays starting in late March and through the summer. I got the Smoked Salmon Everything, which is smoked salmon, cream cheese, red onion, capers, chopped hard-boiled egg, grape tomatoes and crostini. I didn't know what it would look like before I ordered it, but I knew I liked all of the components and only wanted a little something to nibble on. This sounded like it could look like anything: Will all of the ingredients be topped on the crostini? Will it be presented as a dip? But it came out like a piece of art. They really pay attention to details here. You can order wine by the glass, by the bottle or by the flight. I got a glass of Malbec, and it was delicious. One thing to note is: This joint is 21+ only! But the server said that he sometimes sees people come in with kids, and in those cases, he will seat them in a different room. Or, if the weather is nice, families are welcome to sit at the outdoor patio. This is definitely not a place that would appeal to kids, though. This is a place that you visit to get away from kids.

This is my first Yelp review. A new friend (who also happens to be Yelp Elite) encouraged me to…read morejoin the conversation and start writing reviews. So, this review is dedicated to her. Thank you for inspiring me to stop being a spectator and start contributing to the community. Now, on to the review! 305 Wine Garage (also known as AJ's Wine & Dine Garage) has to be one of the best kept secrets in Fortville. As this area continues to experience growth, 305 Wine Garage will remain a gem. The Garage offers an inviting atmosphere with a great selection of wines and a surprisingly delicious food menu. For me, a nice glass of dry red and the Caprese salad are always a great combination. The staff are knowledgeable and always helpful. And the last time I visited, she gave me a heavy pour to finish off the bottle. If you ever find yourself in downtown Fortville, look for the train mural and stop in at 305 Wine Garage. It is a great destination for a night out. Or, like me, use it as the perfect first stop to begin the evening.
