The two ladies I was dining with still enjoyed the sauce with pesto and they brought me out another... each of the sauces I tried were yummy! For lunch I had the carbonara, I think it was a meat carbonara. Our server recommended it as it was not on the lunch menu. I could not finish it all. I live out of town, if I return I am definitely visiting again and would 100% recommend.

A coworker and I drove through Paris, Illinois and searched Yelp for options. We stumbled across…read moreRocky's Italian Bistro and both said we were very pleased with our lunch choice. The ambience is a mixture of a French restaurant meeting an Italian restaurant somehow looking like an American Diner with a menu that had a little of everything. Our server was very attentive even though the restaurant was full and she seemed to be the only server. She was delightful and gave us good recommendations. My coworker ordered a Caprese Panini and a Caesar salad. Obviously this wasn't my recommendation if you've read any of my other reviews! She said it was a great sandwich but wasn't a fan of the homemade chips. I was impressed that she didn't give me the stink eye when I explained my need to photograph her food :) I had the lunch portion of chicken parmesean that was really good. Nice portion of chicken and pasta and a great flavor - I would definitely order it again. Oddly, this came with a side of my choice just like the sandwich menu. I chose a side of fries and they were ok fries. Nothing Earth shattering but not bad. It's a great lunch option at a reasonable price and I'd return if I found myself in the area. Where else can I get a burger, a tenderloin, an order of onion rings and a fettuccine Alfredo all from the same place!?

The shrimp, fettuccine, chicken parmesan and others items, never disappointed. We have also tried about 4 different desserts and each one was fabulous. They make their own noodles and the Parmesan cheese is shaved and mixed just right. This is family owned and the service is friendly. This is a must try if you are visiting your live here.

I had been hearing about this restaurant since I first started working in Terre Haute so I finally…read moredecided to try it. It was good. I am writing about a delivery, so I can't comment on the restaurant itself. I took a star off because they did not provide any utensils or napkins in the delivery bag which made for a delayed meal since I had to go searching for a fork. The garden salad was very good. So crisp and fresh. The tomatoes were yummy, and I liked the surprise of celery amoungst the greens. The greens were mixed and not just iceberg which elevated the salad quite a bit. I always say I judge an Italian restaurant by their sauce, and this one was ok. Very sweet. Not thick. It wanted for something. I ordered the half portion of angel hair pasta, and it was still a very generous amount. I added a meatball which tasted more like an Italian sausage in a ball with a bit of spice and a chewier consistency. I wasn't mad at it, but it wasn't the seasoned ground beef crumble I expected. All in all, the meal was good, just lacking in some of things I expected from a place everyone seemed to like about it. I would probably go back and maybe try some of the other dishes next time I am in Terre Haute, if only to see if maybe it was just that order.

I ordered the Peach Panzanella based on a recommendation from the server. It was very good. The croutons were like cut up and toasted breadsticks which were yummy. My husband ordered the lasagna which he really enjoyed. My son ordered a pepperoni pizza. The pizza itself was big and shareable. The pepperoni was miniature pepperoni and there were not that many on the pizza, which was disappointing. I liked the idea of the miniature pepperoni but I would suggest more pepperoni. Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture of the pizza. The staff were all very friendly.

I have eaten here literally hundreds of times. The owner/chef is always so accommodating. I usually order something off the menu and he makes it happen. Here are some of my favorites: Shrimp scampi Seafood Risotto Scallops Scampi Vodka Pasta with Steak/Shrimp/Scallops On the menu favorites: French onion soup Tuna Sashimi Beef Wellington Lamb Chops Caesar Salad Tonight we had shrimp scampi and steak vodka pasta. My husband gets it extra spicy. Everything was excellent. As appetizers we ordered the Tuna Sashimi and French onion soup. Husband ended the night with bananas foster. Service is always good and drinks are never empty. We love Shawn and enjoy our conversations with him. This is a place to enjoy a nice dinner out without any rush and hustle and bustle.

The bad: The wait staff was not very engaged. I wanted this review to be about the food but that just wasn't meant to be. The Ugly: I am very well travelled on 3 continents. I've dined elegantly as well as from street vendors and I have NEVER had service that was this off putting to the point of being overtly rude, and I am an American who has eaten in France and doesn't speak much French. When we wouldn't sit at the bar, even though the main area was only 1/4 occupied They moved our party of 2 into the side room with chairs up on tables. It went downhill from there. Due to this, it wasn't possible to really enjoy what should have been a fine meal. I will say it is a wise policy to ask for payment and tip ahead of this type of service before it is provided.
