    Sir

    Our server and hostess was one of the friendliest people I have ever met! She was kind and patient and gave us great recommendations. We had strings ten years ago and it was bad lol. But the food was great! Pasta was creamy and delicious, bread had a nice crunch and the salad too! Definitely worth the money.

    Chicken Masala is a nota
    M H.

    I ordered chicken masala it came with old ass throw in the garbage how dare they serve it broccoli and mash potatoes not pasta what kind of Italian restaurant is this. And NO!!! it was not good at all. The waitress was Devine and very pleasant to talk with the cook well he did not speak so I can't say. The ambiance was peaceful but it should be the restaurant was completely empty. But I'll let the picture do the talking the proof is in the photo you know how old vegetables look. Oh did I mention the chicken was very over cooked. I'm calling chef Ramsey

    Fiance and I are new to the area and were craving Italian food, despite the not that great reviews we decided to give it a try. The restaurant was completely empty on a Saturday night at 6:30pm. That should've tipped us off. I ordered the salmon which definitely tasted frozen, smelled and tasted very fishy broccoli on the plate had no seasoning just steamed placed on the side. My partners meal was okay but again with the seafood, the shrimp tasted frozen and rubbery. We also ordered the bruschetta what was soo garlicky was almost not edible. Overall wouldn't come back, the only nice thing was our very sweet waitress. We aren't the type to complain to wait staff so we paid and left but won't be returning, I would advise to save your money. Price of food doesn't match quality.

    $18 for this ? I can get a full size large for that price & it would feed more than 5 adults .

    Seems like it's going down hill. The prices of food do not match the quality. We got a pizza for $18 and it looks like it should be for a child. My husband ordered Alfredo & it looks like plain noodles with a slap of sauce ? I thought this was supposed to be an Italian restaurant... Not worth the money .

    Spoiled spaghetti w/meatballs and soup both trashed $50 bucks via Doordash in the trash.

I skipped adding protein (meat has just not been it for me lately), and honestly, it didn't even need it--the flavor carried on its own. My only tiny complaint? It said it came with sun-dried tomatoes... and I think I counted three. But even with that, the dish still hit. My wife ordered the chicken parmesan and said it was bomb. Of course I had to try a bite--and she wasn't lying. The flavors were all there, no notes, no "I wish it had this or that"--just solid. I also had the white sangria and let me tell you... that alone is worth coming back for. So good. We sat out on the patio, got greeted right away, and our waitress was attentive, kind, and just added to the whole experience. She even offered dessert, but we were so full we had to pass--and that's saying something because banana cream pie is one of my favorites. Bonus: she's the one who makes it. I love a good family-style spot like that. We'll definitely be back... and next time I might just order a salad so I can save room for that pie

    Really enjoyed our first experience here! I've had it on my want-to-visit list for a while and…read moretonight was the night!! It did not disappoint. We started with the burrata. It was delish! Creamy and served over arugula with grape tomatoes. I thought it was perfect. I ordered the casarecce gamberetti. The shrimp were cooked to perfection. The veggies fresh and crisp enough. The pasta yummy! The sauce light and not overpowering. My husband ordered the eggplant Parmesan and it was so good!! I really enjoyed the thick rounds of eggplant. It was served with the casarecce and marinara. My husband got a cannoli to go. No picture there - he inhaled it before I got one. He said it's in his top three and he's tried many!! I look forward to our next visit.

    Came here for a special occasion and made a reservation for dinner. Definitely out of the way and…read morein a pretty random spot, a true hole-in-the-wall kind of place, but we were seated immediately and the inside was much more charming than the outside. Very family-owned vibes while still feeling nice and welcoming. Service was great throughout the meal, and our waiter gave us some really good recommendations and information about the menu. They also corked our wine and kept it on ice, which was a nice touch. To start, we ordered the fried stuffed ravioli and bruschetta. We were also given complimentary fresh bread with olive oil and balsamic, which was a great addition. The fried ravioli was very good, kind of like a fancier mozzarella stick, and the marinara it came with was flavorful and balanced. The bruschetta was perfect: crusty bread topped with sweet, fresh tomatoes. So simple but so good. For mains, we ordered the carbonara and the wild mushroom ravioli. The mushroom ravioli was excellent, meaty and earthy in an addicting truffle cream sauce where the truffle flavor really shines through. The carbonara came out extremely hot, so it was initially hard to fully taste the flavors, but once it cooled a bit it was delicious. Maybe it could've used a touch more salt, but still very good overall. The pancetta was nice too, maybe just a little crispier and more rendered would've taken it even further, but it still brought that fatty, salty flavor I love. For dessert, we ordered the tiramisu along with the chocolate and caramel cannolis. The cannolis were good, not anything especially memorable, but still a nice treat. The tiramisu completely stole the show. It was made fresh, which I was initially unsure about since tiramisu usually sits for a while, but the texture was amazing because the ladyfingers still had a slight crispness to them. We took the rest home, and after firming up overnight it was somehow even better the next day. Honestly the best tiramisu I've ever had. Great food, great service, and I'll definitely be back, even though I'm usually not even a huge Italian food fan.

The outer seating is…read morein front of the restaurant with a really nice cute patio with table linen and fresh flowers. The inside is really cozy and intimate and quiet. This place is perfect for date night or just trying to catch up with your friends. . The service here is high quality and they are kind of like fine dining where they do change out your plates and they do take good care of you. . Now on to the food I actually tried their spaghetti and meatballs which was really good and it wasn't too heavy. I also got to try out their lamb shank which was a really tender lamb and also comes with a brown gravy and really great mashed potatoes and some fresh veggies. . I really like their calamari which was really fresh and crispy. I also like their salmon Carpaccio which comes with a bed of lettuce which is like a salmon salad and it's very huge portion. . The house spread that comes with it is okay it wasn't my favorite because of the texture. . I really do like their desserts I highly recommend getting the cheesecake and also their original tiramisu. I got the pistachio tiramisu but the original tiramisu taste it better. I hope this review helps and thanks for reading and have a yelpastic day.

    If you're heading to Piatti with a group, skip the individual entrees and go full family style…read more It's the definitive way to experience the menu. We had a reservation and waited a few minutes longer than expected, a small grievance quickly forgotten once they sat us near the kitchen with a sightline to the live music, which was actually good. Meatballs, lemon pizza, and caesar salad to start. The caesar has been better elsewhere, but the other two were excellent. The wood fired pork chop, saffron spaghetti, and radiatore that followed were all really good. We finished with the strawberry bread pudding and aperitifs, staying much longer than we needed to. The room feels like a place people return to, filled with neighborhood regulars, which is always a good sign. But the real story is Claudia, our server. Everything arrived exactly when it should, every question was answered before we finished asking it, and nobody at the table wanted for anything all night. That kind of service is rare and she made the whole evening feel effortless. If you go, hope you get her.

From the moment we walked through the door (which was held open by one of the staff who was arriving for her shift) we were treated with kindness and appreciation! Anthony was our server and he was exceptional! Just the right amount of checking in during our meal and the timing of everything was perfect! We started with cocktails - the Paper Plane for me and the old-fashioned for hubs. Both were delish. We had the meatballs and bread with dip to start! The sauce on the meatballs was deliciously tangy! Next up we split a Caesar Salad. If you like anchovies you are in luck! We asked for them, thinking maybe there would be one, but there were 5 big pieces on each plate - too much for us, but nice to know they don't skimp! I really appreciated that they allowed me to try a couple of wines before I decided which one would be my choice! My original choice would not have been as good as the one I landed on. I got the gnocchi and hubs got the New York steak. His was cooked perfectly and mine was delicious. I brought half of mine home and he brought 1/3 of his steak. Had to save room for dessert! The brown butter pear bread pudding for dessert was the perfect end! We look forward to a return trip!

First, shout out to the server that noticed my fiancé's comfortability in the booth and asked if he wanted to be moved to a different table. We didn't catch his name but thank you for noticing my fiancé being a taller and larger guy. This was the first time anyone has asked if he was comfortable. Our server Alex was great! He was friendly and checked in on us often. I got the pappardelle w/red chile flakes and it was so good! Fresh made pasta is delicious and such a treat! My fiancé got the stromboli pizza. When we tried the bread with olive oil and balsamic, he knew he wanted the pizza. The pizza dough reminded him of his trip to Italy eating pizza every day, and he loved it. Tiramisu for my birthday is a must! It was delicious with enough coffee flavor and cream. We'll definitely be back to try the other dishes. All in all, a good spot for my birthday.

The Naughty Pasta with meatballs and ricotta cheese was just heavenly after a sectionals tennis match at Gold River. Pasta Al dente and chewy. Nicely balanced sauce and not too overly acidic. Meatballs were tasty and tender. Tiramisu was a nice sweet pick me up but I felt the custard filling was just whipped cream light. I would prefer a more richer flavor with mascapone. Friendly staff. Spacious seating. It gave that traditional low lighting ambiance with booths and heavy chairs.
