    We had such an amazing experience here. From the moment we walked in, we were treated so well -- the service, the atmosphere, and the food were all outstanding. Jake took incredible care of us and truly elevated the entire experience. I started with a glass of the Cabernet, which was so good that I ended up purchasing a bottle of the Prati. Absolutely amazing. For appetizers, I ordered the scallops and the black tiger shrimp -- both were phenomenal. For my main course, I had the chicken tortellini, which was delicious and comforting in the best way. My husband ordered the fresh vegetables and the chicken sandwich without the bread, thank you to the Chef for the special accommodation, and he loved every bite. He also had an Old Fashioned, and I have to say -- the bartender was completely on point tonight. We sat on the patio, and when we asked for a heater, they brought one out right away. It made the evening so cozy and comfortable. This is officially my new go-to spot, and I will absolutely be requesting Jake again for his amazing service. Also special shout out to Troy who also made sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend -- a perfect experience all around.

    Chicken & Peppers served with Penne Alfredo

    Your favorite Yelp correspondent was, on this night at least, a guest of a guest. Donna and Harold were celebrating their Golden 50th Wedding Anniversary on the delightful patio wing adjacent to the main entrance and my bride, who works closely w/ Donna as an adjunct instructor, received an invitation. Color us suitably impressed...just probably not to the point where WE'D return as paying guests, ourselves. Not because of anything that the Pizzaoili team neglected to do, but solely because we are not the biggest consumers nor partisans of, Italian cuisine. Our dinner party was comprised of 25-30 guests, carefully arrayed around a large rectangular table with big heat lamps strategically positioned. Pizzaoili prepared a Prix Fixe menu for guests of the Spiegel dinner party. We started with baskets of golden, flaky Italian bread dressed with generous amounts of bruschetta then pivoted to house salads which, candidly, would've rated higher had they been sprinkled with parmesan reggiano and/or black/red peppers. Guest then chose from a fixed menu list of four entrees, including: -Salmon with Roasted Seasonal Vegetables -Beef Lasagna -Chicken with Peppers served with Penne Alfredo -Linguine served with two sizable Meatballs My bride chose the lasagna while I opted for the Chicken and Peppers dish. The pasta was prepared al dented, the sauces with rich and creamy to the point of being superbly filling. Our wait staff, a dynamic duo of two ladies, did a masterful job in keeping the wines, coffees and diet cokes topped off. Restrooms were suitably clean and provisioned. If you like Italian, then add Pizzaoili to your collection of standouts. Also ideal for date night!

    Crème brûlée

    What's more romantic than Italian food on Valentine's Day? And there's only one place for us: Pizzaioli. Only the freshest, highest quality ingredients are used and each dish is crafted with attention to homemade, mouthwatering taste. Just look at the ooey, gooey, cheesy, meaty layers in the lasagna! The bread and bruschetta deserves its own bit o' love. The bread here is a softest, spongiest, comforting slice. Add on the bruschetta, and honestly I could just sit and devour breadbasket after breadbasket. Our drinks were romantically inspired specialty concoctions and absolutely delicious. Our server brought the love: friendly, attentive, and timely. We were in good hands under her attentions. We chose to sit outside on the heated, enclosed patio. The candlelight added to the ambiance. Romantic crooners filled the airwaves while we chatted, drank, ate, and enjoyed our delicious meals. Desserts were a sweet end to our lovely evening. The crème brûlée and tiramisu were delectably rich, creamy, and an oh-so-satisfying end to our wonderful night.

    Got invited for my friend birthday celebration here and we really had a great time here. The food is delicious. The pasta is cooked al dente, sauce is on point and the dough is fresh. For those who are looking for gluten free menu, they have some options for you as well. The service is great. The server is friendly and helpful. The ambiance is nice. They have outdoor seating area as well. Definitely will come back for more delicious Italian food!!

    It was our first time here and I right when we walked in the vibe is cozy. Nice jazz music playing. Cute for date night but just wish we got better service: Cons- no more complimentary bread. We paid $6 for COLD bread. We thought okay being an authentic Italian restaurant we'd get fresh and warm bread. Not today. I got the chicken Parmesan. Chicken and tomatoe sauce were lacking flavor. Service was not so great. Waitress and waiter were not very friendly. We kept having to get their attention and they'd walk right past us. Vibe just felt off. The waitress kept forgetting things we asked for. Mind you we went mid-day and restaurant was not packed at all. Customer service was poor! Pros-The lasagna was flavorful. Portions were a good size. Drinks were strong. Overall not sure if we'll be back, really didn't feel welcomed.

    Negroni... delightful

    Delicious Italian Sausage pizza along with a bright and tangy Caesar salad. It was a nice treat and plan to go back during and try their happy hours and brunch very soon! Kayla was friendly and attentive!

    Food here is really good. Thai place has been in business for 30 years. I remember coming here in my 20's for a client lunch. It was great then and it is great now. The service here has always been great. This place gets busier and busier every time I come. It's dark here in the evening gives you a fine dining ambiance, during the day it is brighter. I tend to like this place right before the lunch or dinner rush as it leaves me to sip on my drink and just sit back and relax.

    Linguine & Meatballs
    Maggie C.

    Food was alright -- the Linguine and Meatballs and Tortellini Chicken were pretty salty. I like the fact they have outdoor seating so our pup was able to eat with us. Would've given this place a 4 stars but the suggested tip amount is based on the total not subtotal (see photo). Hate it when restaurants do tip like this because it's always based on the subtotal.

    Isaac V.

    We visited for Valentine's Day with a reservation and expected it to be busy, so there was a short wait before being seated. Despite how busy it was, the food quality was excellent and the service staff were amazing. We'll definitely be coming back soon.

    Always delicious. I haven't been here in over 5 years but I'm glad to know the food is still just as amazing as it was the first time!

The complete menu was next to said employee who stood there patiently while waiting for you to decide on something all while not holding up the line. We settled on 2 taco combos: baja fish and baja shrimp, both on corn tortillas. Then we ordered another set of a la carte tacos, more baja shrimp and fish tacos, but this time on flour. The total came out to $52+ (including CAs seemingly mandatory these days tip). The friendly employee gave us our receipt, order number and beverage cup, and we waited. In contrast to other reviewers apparently short wait times, we sat waiting around a half hour for our take out order to be delivered to us at our table. We headed back home as soon as we got our order and the food held up very nicely. Id say the tacos were delicious and very filing. The battered fish and shrimp in each were generously portioned and the cabbage toppings on each were not only refreshing but eye appealing as well. Although the tacos hit the spot, I have to be honest about the rice and beans, as being an Angelo--if the spot has legit Rice n Beans, then everything else on the menu is spot on. Can't say this holds true for this spot, as it was quite literally the worst rice and beans Ive ever had from an establishment touting Mexican (style) food. I opened the takeout container of rice and was disappointed to say the least, it was just a helping of white rice-- the same as you would get at Chinese takeout. The beans? Even worse than the rice. I sat for a while trying to figure out how to not toss them out, as that would be throwing money away. I'm still pondering.... Go for the tacos, stay clear of the R&B.
