I have been here three times. While the food is great; the service is sub par. There is no bell, button, nothing that alerts the bartenderds that orders are ready. I have been here before and watched my food sit there for 15 minutes without an employee taking a look at it. Food so good. Drinks great. Service could get better and this could be an amazing bar in Dallas. read more

We always enjoy the food and can't say we've ever had a bad experience. Servers are always very polite and helpful.

The service was amazing by Dan as well as the food !!!! The ambience was beautiful. They also have many choices of tequila and bourbons.

This is our favorite white tablecloth Italian restaurant in San Antonio! The menu is extensive, the food is authentic Italiano and the service is impeccable! We love the bar area but favor the main dining room as well. Love the music too- Frank and Dino were Italian too! read more

We had a reservation for a graduation dinner of 30. The service was great! there were so many different waiters attending to us and none of our glasses of tea were ever empty. They were extremely polite, brought more bread, checked on us many times, asked if we wanted our food boxed up, etc. Mazi was the lead manager and he was very courteous and accomodating. We had a preset menu of shrimp scuzzi, lasagna or chicken picatta. All the guests raved how delicious the food was, especially the shrimp and the lasagna. We will be back and bring our friends! Scuzzi's did a great job with our celebration, thank you! read more

Nice evening out for group Christmas party. Plenty of waiters to serve us, good food, nice atmosphere.

If I could provide this business with a zero star I would because the customer service was the worse service I've ever had. As a foodie great food but I was over charged on my check the manager gave me the hardest time ever. Happy hour was 4-7 we ordered at 620 because our reservation was at 6pm and they rang the check in at 7:04 per what the check stated! He didn't even want to refund me after over charging me. I wish this was a better experience but it wasn't for all my people wanting the best service and food stick to Pompeii! I should have never cheated on my favorite Italian restaurant in San Antonio for this. 4 shrimp for $17.00 ohh hell no! Please don't ever contact me or any customer for that matter via personal line/text that is just against all ethics to continue to rant about what I said on this site. A customer review is feedback! The thing is I still tipped in cash next time include all the facts! I really would like to know why wouldn't you offer an opportunity to make it right next time, let the customer know you will always provide superb business. Nope that was not the case! This has now become harassment! It just food people! Ps I'm not even a food critic! They are much worse! read more

Excellent service from a very attentive wait staff. We've noticed the restaurant has changed some of thier practices to be more upscale and the results are noticeable. The food is always superb and I personally feel their signature shrimp dish is much better than the other Italian restaurant across 1604 from them. Shrimp is tender and the sauce is thick and flavorful. The manager Mazi always take the time to welcome me and shake my hand. I love this restaurant so much, after I left the hospital this was the first place I wanted to go out to eat at. We've had many parties and reunions here and they've never disappointed us. read more

Scuzzi's 1604 - Italian Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

On Friday May 5th, 2023 Our Aunt and uncle took my husband and I here..... my husband not being an Italian food person I was a tad nervous that he would not like the food.. To our surprise his and mine he enjoyed every last bit!!! Not a bite left on his plate!!!! Even though the Ac was not working ( in Texas) they made our night unforgettable!!! The service was great ( Dan) and the Omar was amazing!!!!! Thank you for changing my husband's mind on Italian food!!!!!! read more

It's the holidays. I want to support local but this business needs to get their act together. I called the night before to order a 12 person lunch. The person who took my order seemed annoyed to have to take the order in the first place. I was put on hold for a long period of time. Hung up on had to keep calling asking for total and please take my name and time I'm picking up Get here they are confused by the order they have the time wrong for pick up. I had a bad feeling about my order. The gentleman at the front was very nice and kept apologizing about the confusion. I do understand sometimes the person hired to represent the business is having a bad day but having the right attitude is a game changer. Mazi who was at the front was terrific. He brought out the food and double checked it in front of me. Labeled the few items I needed. He carried the food out to my car. He opened my car door and handed me his card. This is how you change the customers mindset. The food was hot and delicious. Everyone enjoyed the food. Thank you for the nice lunch. I will have to go back and dine in. read more

If you are looking for a great spot for Italian food in San Antonio you need to check out Scuzzi's! The service and food is outstanding! The pasta dishes are amazing along with the pizzas. My wife and I love this place and will continue to eat here when we visit! Mazi and the staff are awesome! read more

Visited on a Saturday evening out with family. Upon arrival place wasn't too busy and we were easily accommodated! The service was exceptional, waiter was very attentive and courteous which is why I rate this place at a four star for the most part. The food was moderate, my wife ordered the chicken Parmesan and I order the beef lasagna. The lasagna was soft, cheesy and tomato was ok no too impressed and my wife chicken crusted Parmesan tasted great the noodles and tomato sauce was ok. Overall not too impressed with the food however they do excel at service! read more

The welcome & service were very good, but the prices were outrageously high! This is not a 4.5-5 star restaurant where dishes are artfully presented with expensive, special ingredients; but the prices for salmon $42, scallops $55, shrimp $32. My 4×12 flatbread cheese pizza $18. Food was just NOT that good! Probably will not return when I can pay those prices at better Italian restaurants in city. read more

The food was fantastic other than the arugula salad being wilted. Our waiter, Rudy was awesome!

Love the shrimp scuzzi!! Try it for lunch because it's a lunch special. The bread is amazing. Minestrone soup is great. The shrimp is my favorite dish read more

Everything was wonderful and the service was excellent. We enjoyed our calamari qpp and pasta entrees

Good enough food, as good as any good Italian restaurant. But this restaurant proves that there is more to enjoyable dining then good food. We just had the most boring dining experience in our lives. The place is dull and lifeless, yes, meaning an almost empty restaurant.. A dimly lit dining room with the lower half being dark brown and the upper half being a medium shade of brown, A really lifeless atmosphere. Setting up a card table in the Sistine chapel would have been more lively. And on top of this, their menu prices are way too expensive. I am not sure how much longer this place can drag on like this if something is not changed, but I know that we will never go back there again. However, I wish all of you would go there at least once to perhaps show me that I am wrong. Although, I have to admit, it would be kind of a waste of your money.

I was not impressed. The food was mediocre and super expensive! I would not recommend Scuzzi's.

The food was excellent, as always. Our server, Dan, was very attentive. The entire staff was very friendly.

This is my third time here and it is always amazing. The bartender Rudy was very attentive and made sure we enjoyed our time here. The service was amazing and the food was delicious and very tasteful. The shrimp and scallops were amazing and had an amazing buttery sauce with it. The happy hour was definitely worth it and I can't wait to come back again! read more

Came here for my birthday. Food was decent and my wife and I said it was worth coming back to try again. As the server was clearing our plates my 5 year old told the waiter I was 44 and the waiter said with a laugh, "I don't care." I looked at him and said are, "Are you kidding me?" He immediately said he was sorry and tried to say he was joking, which he clearly wasn't. I told the manager on the way out what happened and was told he was very sorry about the experience. Never offered to take care of anything. After reading reviews, it is very clear their customer service is lacking and needs to be addressed. Just a suggestion for your first lesson on customer service, How to address kids at the restaurant. read more

Just ordered two kids pizzas. For $8 each, save your money and go to Little Caesars. This place puts no effort into the food you order for your kids. Given the price point, very embarrassing. Take pride in everything you do! read more

Food: to die for. Service: impeccable and consistent. Ambiance: Hello? The facility itself is superb, the location makes for a beautiful scene at sunset. read more

Ok, there was 45 of us gathered to send my husband's boss off to retirement. That on of itself could cause service to not be so smooth and it wasn't. It was hard to tell how many servers were assigned to our group. We did have a private room. Taking our orders went well and they would keep track of separate tickets. The 20% gratuity would be applied to all. Started off well we got our drinks, but refills were a challenge. The better places have people dedicated to just taking care of drinks and refills. When the food finally started to be delivered, it was sporadic. A few dishes came out, then a period of wait time. It was hard to adhere to the 'don't eat until more than 50% are served' rule. We didn't wait. Don't want cold food. The food is pretty good. Giving everyone their bills went swimmingly. Ha, ha. read more

Updated from a previous 1 star rating: The manager called us and apologized for the lack of service. They made good on the situation and we did go back tonight for a meal. The food was absolutely excellent. Sausage cacciatore, different pastas, fried ravioli, bread and cannoli were all excellent. The manager, Mazi, was very attentive and apologetic for our experience last night. I have to say that although yesterday was a bust, tonight was a win and I think this is a management team that does care. Only negative from tonight was again... the silly valet service. Not necessary and the service takes up the prime spots for valet parking. Usually valet parking is in the back because the valet brings the car to you. Why would you choose valet just to have them park 20 feet from the door? Again... silly and a small complaint compared to the quality of the food and the excellent service inside. Precious 1 Star rating: What a huge disappointment. We had reservations on Valentines Day at 7:15. When we arrived at the parking lot, they had a make shift valet service set up that caused a huge traffic jam in the parking lot. Obvious money grab. No need for valet in that tiny parking lot. Then we went inside and the lobby was absolutely crowded. We waited in a large line with others who had reservations. When we got to the host, they told us it would be 30 minutes to be seated. Apparently they don't know how reservations work. Thankfully the evening was saved. We left and went next door to Free Tail Brewery. We weren't alone. Quite a few well dressed couples made there way over. read more

Scuzzi's 1604 - Valet parking. Not really a big benefit. I understand going for the high end service but the location doesn't work. - Italian Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

I've been here twice it's always hot, the drinks are good, the service is okay and the views are nothing special. It's not bad per say but not my favorite at all read more

Service on a Friday evening was excellent. Ask for Rudy, has your waiter. Eggplant was awesome.

Scuzzi's 1604 - Outdoor dining with the fam - Italian Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

The restaurant itself is very pretty inside. Our servers were attentive and friendly. As for the food, it didn't meet my expectations. I got the rainbow trout with vegetables (it came in a bowl with the vegetables on the bottom and fish on top), and unfortunately, it was just a very small, thin fillet covered in butter. My vegetables were at the bottom swimming in a pool of butter too. I asked for extra vegetables when I ordered yet hardly got a serving's worth. Overall, food was too buttery and heavy for me, but that seems to be common at Italian restaurants. I did like the sweet tea at least - I got countless refills during my time there. read more

Scuzzi's nicely accommodated our walk-in party of 10 and we had the pleasure of being served and attended by the best. Daniel was very attentive throughout our dinner, he provided excellent service. Dinner was quick delicious too. Will be returning soon. read more

One of the BEST Italian food restaurants i have visited, i had capellini crudo w Grilled chicken (chicken just melted in my mouth), For the finale i had an Italian pistachio creme cake slice, it was "perfection " i could've ate another slice because it wasn't rich, you could taste the creamy Ricotta. Great place to catch a ball game at the bar and great food. Staff (JR and Mazi) very friendly, polite, and welcoming. I will be back Boys... read more

Went on Valentine's Day with no reservation. We showed up at 8 (Still peak restaurant hours) and sat immediately. However, our server seemed annoyed he got sat because his personality was dry and when I made the comment " Did you get sat right before your getting cut"? He shook his head in annoyance. So we were rushed through the dinner. My bar drinks came out fast and the food was fast as well. I got the shrimp scuzzi with 5 shrimp and a little bit of dry spaghetti underneath. No lemon butter sauce was present. My friend had the Lasagne. It was not good. For $25 you should get a big square piece but this looked small and thin. The meat inside was mushy like imitation meat or mystery meat. It wasn't beef, it was more like skillet meat. After eating he pre-bussed quickly and dropped the check. He "lurked" around our table until I was done filling out the check and he swooped the credit card receipt off the table like a Hoover vacuum cleaner. Pricey and lackluster food. read more

First time at Scuzzi's and it was absolutely amazing. Great happy hour, delicious food, and amazing service. Thank you Rodolfo and staff for being so welcoming. read more

The dinner started out well. Nice Ambiance, white table clothes, very pleasant and attentive waiter. He went over his recommendation on the menu and explained the chef special, Chilean Seabass with Shrimp (and crab - that I could not find). Looking at the menu, the most expensive item was in the $40's. Since the waiter didn't give the price of the special and I didn't want to embarrass myself by asking, I figured it couldn't be too much more. The place was empty at dinner time. We were so impressed we weren't sure why no one was there. At the end of the meal the server placed an 8x10 frame on the table with QR codes to scan and leave a review. Pushy, but we agreed and left nice reviews. I waited until we left to look at the check my husband paid. When I saw that they had the nerve to charge $85 for the seabass I was shocked. I have never paid that much for a fish entree in my life. I was sure the waiter had keyed in the wrong amount. What on earth! When I called the manager, he said it was correct and explained they don't tell you the price because once a patron complained they were embarrassed when they were told the price. VERY Poor excuse!! It's more embarrassing to have to ask. And at the price - ROBBERY!! It was served with pasta. No salad starter. It was good, but not $85.00 worth. And this solves the mystery of why it's empty. read more

Came here to celebrate the boyfriends birthday as we wanted nice food / ambiance but nothing too fancy or overpriced. Food was good but nothing wowing us enough to come back. Our server Manny was amazing and took great care of us during our visit and is a big reason for the 3 stars. Drinks: Had a subpar dirty martini and Moscow mules during our visit. Moscow mules won over the martini as it just wasn't tasty or as clean prepped as I've had at other locations. Moscow mules were on the sweet side and could have used more alcohol but it was nice to sip on. Food: Started with the fried asparagus and while they were good, we have just had better. If you've never had them before, highly recommend but if you're trying to fill a craving, I don't think these are the ones. Birthday boy had veal Parmesan and loved it. Said it was some of the better veal he had had since living in Texas the past 8 years. I had the Scuzzi shrimp dinner. Thought it was good but it needed more salt and sauce. I would have preferred the coating on the shrimp to be a bit crispier but that's just me. While we didn't order or request a dessert on our own, they provided the birthday boy a mini cannoli with a candle. Loved the thought and appreciation but I later found out they charged me for it. I didn't bring it up bc I understand businesses are trying to recover but I would have preferred the option to decline if I had to pay for it. It definitely put a damper on the experience so we probably won't return anytime soon. read more

Went to a large Christmas gathering and unfortunately the place was not equipped for a big group even they were aware of the reservation. Chairs were touching one another cause the restaurant crammed everyone together like sardines in a can...no elbow room. Food was lack-luster, bland, frozen Italian food. One waiter working hard, one with an attitude and a brand new bartender that didn't seem to get help from manager or coworkers. He did his best. And the worse part of the whole Christmas dinner was eating off of paper plates. Sad. Won't be back again. read more

Had a dinner reservation for 7:30pm on Mother's Day. A/C must've been out it was uncomfortably warm. No warm greeting at check in and I did have to chase up my table after my reservation time even though we had arrived early. Food was very mediocre. Bread and olive oil was a small dish of olive oil with some garlic sunk at the bottom and a green floating herb. Definitely not high end olive oil to serve just like that. Had spaghetti bolognese just meat sauce. Was lukewarm but wasn't awful though but meh wouldn't leave home for it. Service was good though waiters were super nice. Seems popular though but as a visitor to San Antonio I would not recommend. read more
