I walked in with a $20 gift card about a decade old and if they had told me they couldn't process it that would have been fine. The happy hour menu offered blue point oysters for $1 each so I ordered a dozen. The bartendress brought me the most miniscule oysters you'll ever encounter. One of the shells was quite simply empty. When I tried to tab out my tab included a great deal of liquor I didn't imbibe. I pointed this out. I got back two tabs, one for my two beers at ~$8 and one for the oysters ~$14. I presented the card. She came back and said it ran for the bar tab but not the food tab. I asked her to run the card out on the food tab and I'd pay the remainder and tip via credit card. Much management consulting ensued. Finally she came back and returned my credit card and said "it's all taken care of," inferring they ran out the gift card's ~$12 balance and called it even. I tipped $10 cash. Got home and saw that they ran the credit card for the full balance on the mini oysters. Amounts too small to matter but that's some pretty shitty shuck and jive. Avoid this place. read more

The restaurant is OK. That's it, nothing more, nothing less. The worst thing about the place are the prices as they are outrageous for such an unoriginal experience and location. Again, food, service, and location are mediocre and prices are dumb. read more

Great food, atmosphere and service! We enjoyed our time on the patio. Mark was our server, and he was very polite and attentive. The happy hour menu offered a wide selection of food and drinks. We will definitely be back! read more

We made a reservation to Scuzzis to celebrate my brothers birthday. The food was overpriced, portions were small, and it wasn't anything special. You could get your moneys worth if you just go to Maggianos. We were unfortunately served by a man named Thomas. He was very rude and sarcastic throughout our experience there. We asked him for water and he sarcastically asked "what kind of water" but didn't mention any water options that they offered. He proceeded to stare at us in a disgusted way until he finally got the point we just wanted some filtered water. We asked for a straw and he must have passed our table 5 times before he finally brought it. Thomas also kept repeating "Are you sure that's what you want" in a very sarcastic mocking tone after every order or request we made. Another table came in and he catered to them first. After waiting for a long time we told him we were ready to order, but he told us he had something he needed to do first and proceeded to walk away. We had to keep asking for bread, even after he served bread to the table he was also catering to that arrived after us. His excuse for taking long to bring out the bread was that "he has a process that he follows." Not trying to throw any racist card in here, but we were a table of all Hispanics, and Thomas was trying to speak to us in Spanish. We all spoke very clear English and English is also the primary language spoken in our household. Also, basic Spanish 101 is you don't call a young lady in her 20's a "Senora." That term is used for an older lady. The correct term is "Senorita." In the future, please use the correct nouns or just don't use them at all. Thomas rude behavior was noticed and well known across the table. He spoke to us in a very loud obnoxious tone that he did not seem to use with any of his other tables. He came and apologized to us but he had already ruined our dinner. Thomas brought the checks out and we noticed that he included his own gratuity on everyone's check. Perhaps, that may have been because we were a party of 8, but smart man to do that because he wouldn't of received a penny from us. As a whole family, I don't think we had ever felt so belittled and disrespected. We will definitely not be returning to this restaurant ever again. read more

This dining experience was very good. The chicken Parmesan was excellent and we will definitely be back to try It again.

It's okay. Not memorable. We expected more tasty food. The food was fine. The ambience was more intimate. We were there for an afternoon with a baby. It's a better place for a date; More intimate setting. read more

Went for dinner, the food was very good but the portions were very small, I ate some food after I came home from dinner. If I am going to be spending this kind of money I want bigger portions and a fancier location. The inside of the restaurant is beautiful but for a high end restaurant you kind of want it in a premier location like the Eilan, La Cantera, or the RIM not next to an HEB. read more

I first visited Scuzzi's in April 2016 and haven't stopped going since. From the polite, attentive staff to the truly flavorful dishes, I cannot get enough of this restaurant. The wine selection is also first class. Dining out is always an issue for me as I am vegan; but Scuzzi's is always accommodating with my "special requests" and even offers whole wheat pasta. The food is always fresh and always delicious... so much so that a friend of mine had her wedding reception there. From the exquisite ambiance to the top-level service, Scuzzi's made it a very special night for her. Some of the guests actually asked to thank the chef for their amazing meals (one guest was a chef himself). I kid you not. Mazi has done a phenomenal job with this restaurant! read more

Absolutely love this place for lunch or dinner! I've never had anything I didn't love! But their bruschetta is AMAZING! I love their salads, pasta and their happy hour! Love hosting events in their party room! read more

Won't be going back. Food is just ok. Bread should be better for an Italian restaurant. They advertise $5 martinis all day. We were billed for $11 for the martini. Waiter kept mentioning items without mentioning an upcharge. We mentioned one in our party was having a birthday. We did not order dessert. They brought us a cannoli with a candle on it. How sweet. Then when we got the bill we were charged $4 for it ! Quite the nerve. $4 is not a lot but it's the principle of the thing. read more

The manager is unprofessional and thinks what he says is how it goes. The other employees already said they would mess with our food. And they normally do is the only reason why she said it after our third conversation. I will never recommend or trust this place again. I used to be a consistent customer until this manager said what he said. read more

The eggplant Parmesan is one of the best pasta plates I have EVER had. It was cooked perfectly! The service is without a doubt so great.

It was a spur of the moment / process of elimination decision for my girlfriend & I to eat here for dinner - Willie's was overcrowded & Freetail Brewing Co had a weird Petco smell inside it. The food was good but definitely overpriced. I don't know if they were understaffed that night (for a medium-sized dinner crowd) but service was extremely slow. We should've had Freddy's Steakburgers & Frozen Custard instead. read more

My partner and I are big fans of Culinaria SA. We've frequented several of the upscale restaurants that participate in this event. Needless to say we were very disappointed when we visited yesterday evening. I made a reservation for 7:30 and upon arrival it was chaos. 1) A drag show was scheduled at this venue and it appears that the restaurant wasn't fully prepared to support such an occasion. 2) The hostess took my name then was rudely interrupted by a staff member requesting menus. She helped him and then about faced toward our table never once asking us to follow. We stood there in confusion not sure if we should proceed to follow her or stay put. 3) Once seated it took several minutes for our waiter to come to the table and took longer than normal to be served our entree's. 4) Our booth was adjacent to the bar entry way and while eating a waitress (dark hair/blonde tips) could be overheard asking a coworker about a "small pee-pee and balls" referring to one of the drag participants. I turned to look her way and she covered her mouth and then asked if she said that too loud. Umm- yes you said that too loud! On another occasion another waiter came to the bar entry way and stated "are you ready for this long ass list"? Definitely not the language one would be expecting to hear among customers. 5) My partner reported that both urinals were covered and out of order and there was only 1 stall to be used. There were open beer bottles sitting in the bathroom and oh yah - he used the last of the paper towels. 6) For the price you pay for the meal while participating in Culinaria the food was no more than mediocre. This place does not compare to any of the other participants such as Aldo's, J Prime, Silo's and many more. Needless to say we will not be revisiting this establishment. Don't waste your time or money. read more

Nice upscale italian. Good wine. Good food. Good service. One of the better italian places in the area.

I had heard of Scuzzi's a long time ago but finally made it in last night. I liked it and would recommend for Italian food. The restaurant was nice, staff very friendly and had great customer service. Food was good we had the cáprese salad to start, I had eggplant parm and my husband the pescatore pasta. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was because my husband's dish which consisted of mixed seafood was a bit overcooked. I would go back. read more

My husband took me here on a date and it was awesome. We sat in the bar area and we're the only ones in that area because my husband is drawn to TVs. The bartenders were very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. We had several awesome drinks. And our entrées were absolutely amazing he had the bass and I had Salmon. We are excited to go back and try something else. read more

I honestly feel like the food is mediocre & over priced. Staff is fairly friendly BUT slow. I can't afford to eat over there again & have to leave to get something else to finish filling me up! read more

A great effort that fell a little short. This was our first visit and we were instantly impressed with the attentiveness of the staff. We were seated immediately, and our waiter appeared shortly after. We were informed about the very attractive drink specials, and I ordered a skinny margarita that was served with no sour mix, but was too sweet with agave for my taste. Our waiter offered to replace the drink, but I drank that one and ordered another without the agave, and it was much better. We ordered the shrimp appetizer that was perfectly cooked and served on a hot plate, but the shrimp was only warm, and would have been excellent with hot shrimp. The house salad was good with mixed greens, and a house Italian dressing. My wife ordered tomato basil soup that tasted sour. The manager immediately knew that there was not enough cream in the soup, and offered to make another, that came out much better. We split the prime ribeye with a side of potatoes, and this was our biggest disappointment. The ribeye itself seemed like a good cut, but the flavor of the steak was overpowered by the heavy char flavor of the grill, and the mushroom gravy poured over the steak. We are not sure if the gravy was mentioned on the menu, but it really takes away from a steak. The potatoes were heavy on the rosemary for me, but it could be a matter of taste. The Wednesday drink specials are a great value, and the service was really extraordinary, the food just was not what it could be. read more

We were excited to try a new Italian restaurant and give my husband a change from the typical eateries around where we live. Let's just say we were thoroughly underwhelmed with the food this restaurant had to offer. The staff are very friendly and shaky/nervous. Our waiter actually stabbed my chest while cleaning the bread crumbs from the table and dropped a spoon on our friend's head. In the future for the hiring manager, servers with steady hands might help. My husband's dish would have been better at olive garden, which neither of us are fans of. The chicken in my dish seemed to be anorexic. I would expect higher quality and/or larger portions for the price of admission. Sadly, this is not the case at Scuzzi's Italian Grill. read more

It has been a while since we've eaten at this restaurant. My family and I went for my birthday and we were so disappointed! The food was way overpriced! The portions were small and our salad was drenched in balsamic vinaigrette dressing! Yuck!! Although the entree was flavorful, it was truly not worth the price! I was so unhappy with the overall experience and we will not be going back. Think twice when the parking lot is empty and only two people are in the entire restaurant! read more

This place gets 1 star because the service was good but the food was so bland and the sauces tastes straight out of the can. I'm not sure why the prices are so high when you can get better "Italian" food at Olive Garden. Sadly disappointed. read more

We had a wonderful dinner with several of our church friends and the food and service were memorable! Scuzzi's is on our favorite restaurant list for dining with friends and catching up conversations. read more

Mediocre at best!!! Wish we had gone to Paesanos. Piatti, Carabbas or Magiannos!!!! Bread was nothing special, salad was bland and eggplant tasted like it was a day old and reheated! read more

The service was pretty good. Not a long wait for food, but not very tasty. For the prices, I want food that is at least seasoned. The bread was like plain dough with no type of flavor. I literally almost spit it out because it tasted like what I think cardboard would taste like. The eggplant parmesan had flavor but was super mushy. I also had roasted potatoes with it, which were extremely under seasoned. Just garlic on them and pretty much nothing else. I will say that dessert was really good. I had the creme brûlée with a coffee and kaluha. The creme brûlée was brought out and set on fire, which was pretty cool. It also tasted amazing. Overall this place was just okay, nothing to rave about and just underwhelming. read more

This place is definitely my #1 pick for Italian food in San Antonio! The Bruschetta, Calamari and Shrimp Scuzzi are some of my favorite to start off with but their Eggplant Parm keeps me coming back every time! SO GOOD! Happy Hour here is also a must, from the ambiance to the wine and cocktail selection. Definitely, an awesome little gem. The service is great and the food is even better, makes it my go to for dinner and date night. Highly recommended. read more

My husband and I stumbled upon this restaurant. The sign is misleading, as the restaurant is nicer than the exterior leads on. It was fine for us as it was date night and we were dressed from work. We started with mussels as appetizer, and they were great. We both enjoy seafood, and this was no exception. My husband had a sampler of sausage for dinner, and I had pasta. Both were flavorful, but not knocks out of park. We would definitely return, but as the price point is a little higher this is more of an occasional restaurant as opposed to a spot we would frequent often. read more

Best Manicotti ever!!! Nice atmosphere and the wait staff was very attentive. My husband had the salmon with capers and said that was one of the best pieces of fish he has had!!! Definitely going back!!! read more

I am continually impressed by Scuzzis. We went for Fathers Day and service and food were excellent. I am continually amazed at how wonderful the food is. Ambiance is quiet and relaxed. Prices are very reasonable. Calamari was amazing. I can't want to go back. read more

First time dining here and the experience was superb. The food was delicious and every person we encountered was polite. Our server was Blanca and she was awesome; attentive, courteous and very professional. She made the experience a unique one because it's hard to find good service these days. And her attitude said she enjoys what she does. The ambiance of the restaurant was nice, as well. It's dimly lit and cozy, with tasteful jazz music playing. I loved my visit and I can't wait to return. read more

I took my granddaughter to this restaurant today with 3 other tables being served to be greeted by the waiter rather rudely and untimely. He snobbishly responded to me when I asked what the chef recommendation is .. that they do not do specials, and that they are a high end restaurant... nor did he offer any suggestions to choose from. In addition, he then royally screwed up my order as well as continued to treat me and my granddaughter as an inconvenience. Service was horrendous.. food was good... attitude unacceptable. Overall, I can not recommend this restaurant! Very sad, I have spent a lot less for a definitely better experience by staff as well as service and food for much less. Many lessons are needed at this establishment. Will not be returning or recommending to anyone. read more

Felt like royalty here. Im not used to fine dining so i was very impressed. The grilled chicken was so delicious! ! And the bread..omg! Yum! great for a date night! read more

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

My parents go to this place for date night, and today me and my mom decided to go and get a salad to go. We drove almost a hour to get these salads because my parents had a great experience the first couple times. When we get home, we open the salad and my salad has two dead flies in it. Their bathroom was also nasty, but great service that is my only reason for giving them 2-stars. I won't eat there again though... read more

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

Horrible place. Asked to be seated in the patio area because they had heating lamps and then it became a little too cold so I asked if I could have the lamps turned on. I was told there was no propane. We moved indoors and I asked to speak to the "manager." I told him politely that I had been to his location several times and always happy w/ the service, but was quite disappointed today that they had the equipment to provide heat, but did not have the resources to sustain it. He said "sorry, if you'd like you can go to Academy or Heb and purchase one." I was wondering where that comment came from. When my husband heard him he told him there was no need to give me attitude. He said, "Im not, you are welcome to leave. Better yet, leave." Never once did I raise my voice or did I say anything inappropriate. It was merely a few words. I did not make a scene, kept my voice minimal because we had a table of folks sitting close by. When I asked to speak to his manager or the name he said he was the "owner!" Wow! I understand places are hurting, but not here apparently. What a way to take in constructive criticism. Never mind we were dropping over $100.00, however how much you spend shouldnt matter. Never again will I support a business w/ such rudeness. read more

Had our first visit to Scuzzi and I think this is a great place. Excellent tenderloin scuzzi ( special) and my wife had a great salad w grilled shrimp. Nice folks and manager/ owner. Make sure you specify that you want your sambuca neat and separate from your espresso!! No complaints, though. read more

This place is always delicious! The service is wonderful and the staff is always friendly. I really love the relaxing setting and music. If you love sports the happy hour at the bar is always satisfying! Love this place! read more

I made an online reservation via open table and was successful in my attempt. However, when I got to the restaurant, we were there were no tables available. We were asked to sit in the bar area. While not exactly thrilled, we accepted because we were hungry. While waiting for our waitress (at least 15 minutes), we witnessed several parties being seated in the dining area, as well as at least 3 parties being serviced after we were seated. When I made eye contact with a male server, we were told that the waitress was on her way. Finally, after another 10 minutes, the waiter noticed that we still haven't received drinks, so he took our drink order. After another 10 minutes and seeing several others getting drinks, we decided to leave. The waitress never came to our table. Warning: Don't go to this restaurant if you want service..You won't get any! read more

My husband and I decided to try this restaurant because we had a $10 off coupon. We went on a Wednesday evening and there was live music and all their cocktails were just $5. The decor and lighting were very romantic and the music added just the right touch to set the mood. Russ, our server introduced himself and took our drink order while filling us in on the evening's chef specials. We were brought warm fresh bread to enjoy with the high quality olive oil with fresh garlic that was already on the table. We ordered the Penelope cocktail, which is a tasty concoction of coconut rum, pineapple juice, fresh basil read more

I have been to both locations and my favorite dishes are the Shrimp Scuzzi with it's signature sauce, the lasagna, and for dessert their Tiramisu. Quality and taste is the same at both locations. The staff is amazing, their Manager Mazi is very attentive and on top of everything. I've attended several events hosted at Scuzzi's and they have all been very well organized and ran smoothly. I give Scuzzi's 5 stars!! read more

I came here to celebrate my birthday with my parents. The service was okay, and the entrees were pretty good. We did enjoy the live music! They should give more oil per table, as we only got one small amount, that would be sized for one person. I let the waiter know that i had a milk allergy, because I'm still nursing my daughter, and she has a severe milk protein sensitivity. Apparently there was milk in something, because my daughter was up all night and morning screaming from abdominal pain. I ordered the salad with no tomato, and the pasta with no onion, sub squash. It came out unmodified. We ordered the apple torte (w/ caramel and ice cream on the side) and it was terrible. We would have told the waiter if he would have asked, but he didn't, and we had already paid the bill. The apples were not cooked through, it wasn't sweet enough, and there was raw dough on the inside. They use bottled caramel, which surprised me. Later on, my mom said they were supposed to add a candle and sing to me, but that didn't happen. The bill came (around $68) and my dad didn't really look at it (his mistake), sent his credit card back, and then signed it. I happened to look at it, and was thinking it was too high for what we ordered. What he signed pre tip was around $100, so he went back and compared both receipts later on. It in fact did not match up. He tipped based on the $100, not the $68. When he looked at his credit card statement, his card was charged over $100. He called and spoke to the manager, and he was refunded the amount he was overcharged. I had been here a few times before, but won't be returning after our experience. Also, overall it's overpriced for the quality of food. If it's one or two things, no big deal, but when there are multiple issues, you will lose customers. As a response to the response from the business, saying that my dad miscalculated the amount is simply not true. The amount charged pre tip was incorrect, otherwise there wouldn't have been money to refund. Again, definitely skip Scuzzis, and hit up Freetail next door. You won't regret it. read more
