    I last came here in 2017, but I came for Valentine's Day with my boyfriend, and we had an amazing night. Our server, Sloan, was accommodating and kind! The rigatoni was amazing, the ambiance was warm and inviting, and the drink list was excellent!

    Chicken Tortellini Soup
    Becca W.

    Came for a date night on a Monday night. Place was not too busy. Food I also absolutely delicious, I got the chicken tortillini soup and it was so authentic I did not like it unfortunately they may have put cinnamon in and I was looking for more savory and not sweet tasting. But of course my filet was cooked to perfection, absolutely filled with delicious flavors and just overall gourmet. We also ordered the shrimp for the first time the grill taste on the shrimp was to die for. Love the food here.

    Drink

    Perfect place for a date night!! I would highly recommend the dark Manhattan!!! The steak was super good as well.

    Seasonal gnocchi & lasagna

    Food is always amazing here especially their seasonal items! The fig appetizer is 10/10 and the seasonal gnocchi never disappoints We also got lasagna The service is great too!

    Back in town celebrating me and my Hot girl anniversary 15 years. In the Washington area (Hi rent) Where Italian food with an Bangladesh fusion Nasty. Atmosphere 1-10 a 10 Food well go eat first then go there and have a salad. Ordered Crab cakes (which was dry nasty) but when you hungry. Sausage and peppers (sausage was made a week ago) Need less to say, Yew stomach started to rumble both of us. Heavy flatulation (Farting) then (sharting occurred. Let me tell our car was smelling wicked. Advice this place is a joke . confronted the owner . I quote " To bad for you" Get some dog food instead.

    Made with bottles.

    Well, this is my third try here. I WANT to love it here. Unfortunately, I just don't. First, it's in a strip mall. This always surprises me. Why would you put a more upscale type of restaurant next to a 7/11? Well, it seems to be the trend, so I'll give it a pass. The parking lot is not very big, and it needs some repairs, but all Michigan parking lots do this time of year. Once you step.inside, the atmosphere is warm, cozy, and upscale. It gets very busy, so reservations are recommended. Even the bar fills up quickly. Their wine and cocktail list is impressive. Beer list was ok. Not a huge selection, but a big enough one. Not a huge menu. But a fair selection. You get soup or salad with your entree and a bread basket. I found it odd that you had to pay extra to add pasta to your meal. What? I ordered chicken Saltimbocca. Had I not paid extra for angel hair pasta, it would have been two pieces of meat on a plate with some spinach...uhhh..ok. Pretty expensive for two pieces of chicken. He ordered chicken. Marsala and same thing. Had he not paid extra for linguini noodles, it would have been chicken and mushrooms on a plate. Service was great. Loved the atmosphere. The food was just ...meh. It didn't excite me. I want food to make me happy and release endorphins. This did nothing. It wasn't bad. It just wasn't anything terrific. I would come back to sit at the bar and have a glass of wine and maybe an appetizer... But I won't be back for dinner.

    Absolutely amazing experience! The food was delicious from start to finish. I had the cheese…read moreravioli with palomino sauce, and it was perfectly cooked and full of flavor. My husband ordered the spaghetti and meatballs, which were just as incredible--classic, hearty, and done right. To top it off, we had the tiramisu for dessert, and you can truly tell it was made from scratch--fresh, rich, and the perfect ending to our meal. Everything we ordered was outstanding. We will definitely be coming back! Highly recommend! Service was amazing! Definitely will come back and get the same server to our table! As for the ambiance, it's somewhat outdated.

    There was three of us that came to celebrate a birthday on Saturday 1-24-26. We had made…read morereservations for 6 PM but had to wait over 30 minutes for our table to be ready. It was packed inside and when we inquired on the wait time the hostess mentioned people were staying long and they were very behind. Once we finally got seated we got a private booth with curtains. A warm bread basket (very delicious) quickly arrived and our drink orders taken. The drinks here are quality pours and they brought us extra olives and cherries which we thought was a nice touch. We started off with calamari and escargot for our appetizers. Calamari was plentiful and had big meaty pieces. The breading was a little too salty though. I'm used to calamari coming with a side of marinara but this came with cocktail sauce. It was nothing special and probably wouldn't order it again. The escargot, normally a favorite of mine, was to rave about either. The sauce it came in was very bland and my girlfriend ended up adding salt to it to make it taste better. Main courses were a better choice. I had the gnocchi with Palomino sauce and it was excellent. They give quite a big portion so I had enough leftovers for the next day. The birthday girl got the Veal Mamma Assunta my other friend went with the shrimp Casalinga (their house speciality). They both said they liked their choices but it wasn't anything exceptional. I think depending on what you order certain dishes are better than others. We had a good experience and the portions are large but it just seemed there were a few things lacking that could have made it a great experience. I would still recommend Luciano's but I would come here when it wasn't a busy weekend or during lunchtime.

The atmosphere was lively and welcoming ... it just felt like a place where everyone was genuinely enjoying themselves. Our drinks and meals were an easy 10/10, and the leftovers were just as delicious the next day. We devoured them! The only downside was that they had already sold out of desserts by the time we were ready to order. We settled for a dessert martini instead, and it was excellent. (twist my arm ya know?) Buon Appetito exceeded our expectations in every way, we will definitely be back!

    2020-10-30 TestaBarra. Macomb, Mi…read more The first time we came here was for their happy hour, tonight we came for dinner. Menu are both physical and virtual via QR code to access their website menu. There is definitely too much to talk about here so be sure to look at my pics as I've provided a quick summary in the captions. J Baldwin's famous calamari. After receiving the dish, I think I've had it before at J Baldwin's in Clinton Twp. The calamari is not your typical calamari and is sauced with his Beurre Blanc famed on the Food Network. While it's still breaded, the Beurre Blanc is enough to soften it completely while adding an explosion of flavor. The Beurre Blanc is made with olive oil, shallots, peppercorns, bay leaves, lemon juice, wine, and cream. Personally I think this dish was way too sauce heavy. There wasn't a single crispy bite. While flavorful, I was looking forward to a light and crispy texture, but didn't get it. I think this could have been accomplished with going lighter in the sauce, maybe just drizzling it on, and providing a serving of it on the side. 3,5 stars. Truffle Sausage Pizza. Tradition hand tossed dough that's not too thick and not too thin. Italian sausage, truffle oil, parsley, Gouda, Mozzarella, and Parmesan cheeses. The Italian sausage was not what I expected. Rather than slices or tiny meatballs, it was ground up. I kinda liked it to tell you the truth, but it wasn't evenly applied. It was more densely populated in the center, which left the perimeter sparse with toppings. While the truffle oil sounded good, it didn't work for me. Here's the thing you need to know about truffle oil, it's not made from truffles (mushrooms)! That's right, truffle oil is typically made from extract, which is why the flavor is so intense and a little goes a long way. Local Carbonara Bucatini. Made the traditional way with cuts of pork cheek (guanciale). The bucatini pasta was nicely done and not overcooked. The guanciale was also nice and crispy as it should be. It was lighter on the cheese than I would have liked and none was served on the side, but it was Pecorino Romano and it was shaved from a block. Did I ask for more on the side, of course I did! The black pepper wasn't also as prominent as it should have been, but the server did have some fresh ground at the ready when it was served. 4 stars. Overall, I would have to say that I'm still a fan of J. Baldwin's Testa Barra. The food is prepared fresh with quality ingredients, and the dishes are inspirationally classic, and sometimes with innovating or modern twist. I've consistently never been disappointed with every visit. If You would like to experience more, come dine-with-me.yelp.com I'd love to have your company... Bon Appétit!
