Sat at the bar for dinner and drinks. Donna is a fun bartender and everyone at the bar is friendly and talkative. I had the Veal Parmigiana which was fantastic along with the house salad...their dressing is the best anywhere! Prices are reasonable and everything is great. It's not fancy...but it's authentic and cozy. Any restaurant that has been around for 65+ years with the same family must be doing a lot of things right. Owner was onsite and is very friendly as well. Love Villa! read more

Love Villa Restaurant! Food is consistently great, pizza is great, it's old school. Real cheese and great crust. Definitely not a chain pizza. read more

Great family restaurant that has stood the test of time. Huge portions with reasonable prices. An older crowd, which to me is always the sign of good food with great value. We had steak Siciliano, Manicotti, & carry out of chicken parmigiana. Fast & friendly service, as always. Frank Sinatra in the background. Been coming here since I was a kid. True comfort food at a neighborhood gem. read more

Not great, not bad. VERY nice people with great service. Sat on the restaurant side in a booth & probably should've gone through to the bar side because the ambience on this side was quite bright, like a church social hall. I recommend you try the bar side, more conductive to a quiet dinner in our opinion. Pastas were just ok. Wouldn't rush back. read more

Amazing authentic Italian food! Always enough to take some home. Very clean dining area and the service is spot on!

Nice friendly service with seating a great place to eat good food family ownded a good location

What a great family restaurant. The food is good Italian comfort food. They have a bar that offers nice wines and cocktails . The deep dish style pizza is a must try. read more

I am rating first in accessibility then quality. There are a fair number of handicap designated spaces - however there are concrete curbs placed so close together that as a wheelchair use you have to go clear out to the street and come up the side walk- and then that is blocked by a narrowing of the path. So unless someone is going to pick up the wheelchair/scooter no easy entry. Likewise the restroom was completely inaccessible, I am able to walk a bit and it was very tight. We had a very large group and the service was great The pasta not so much. The gnocchi was really chewy and the ravioli also was very undercooked, actually chewy. read more

I have heard rave reviews about Villa for years and I finally stopped in for a carry out order. What I love about Villa is they offer countless fresh and homemade Italian meals at an affordable price. I ordered the mostaccioli with meat sauce, which also came with a garden salad and bread. The meal was $12 and I had enough food for 3 days! The salad was fresh and the dressing was also homemade (I had Italian dressing!) Even my boyfriend was snagging bites of the pasta! 10/10 recommend! My boyfriend had the chicken parmesan, which came with two perfectly breaded chicken breasts. His meal also came with a side of angel hair pasta. The salad options here are also fresh and homemade. He loved his chicken noodle soup! Was so comforting on a rainy day! Everything tasted amazing. The meat sauce here is superb. Can't wait to dine in soon with my family! read more

For the first time I dined at Villa during lunch. My group and I had a buffet luncheon there. WOW! What a pleasant surprise. Not only was the staff superb with their service and attentiveness, but the buffet food was generous and delicious. We had chicken, ratatouille, meatballs, green beans, and a sundae. The restaurant has a great parking lot and the inside of the restaurant was very clean. It was a pure delight to discover this gem from 1956. The portions were generous and I was even able to take food home. I can't wait to go back. Bravo! read more

Old school Italian goodness. Call the basic staples are on the mend your hair. There's at least six or seven different types of pasta to choose from, and you can add grilled chicken, mushrooms, meatballs, etc. They also have things like chicken Parmesan, chicken piccata, ravioli, lasagna, etc. The differences these things are all made the old fashion way, and have an amazing old world taste. Fantastic service with friendly service and horse adds to the experience. It's a relaxed room, feel free to wear your jeans and T-shirts as you'll be very welcome! I love this place! read more

We went to Villa Restaurant for my husband's birthday. The service was fine, but not outstanding. At one point the waitress asked a question which showed she thought we'd been in before, because she never asked us anything about ourselves or why we were there. It suggested a lot of new people aren't coming to this restaurant. We ordered bruschetta as an appetizer, he got chicken Parmesan and I got villa chicken, and we had a piece of tiramisu for dessert. The bruschetta was really tasty, but nothing special. Just slices of bread with garlic and cheese and tomatoes. My husband liked his chicken Parmesan, but we were surprised about the bread basket he was given. It just had two slices of regular white bread in it that appeared store bought and two things that looked like pretzel sticks. The villa chicken comes with breaded eggplant despite the description not identifying the eggplant as being breaded. Further, I was given a choice of three sides: pasta, vegetables, or fries. I was thinking I wanted a potato on the side so I went with the fries. They were possibly the worst fries I've ever had. Just no flavor or texture. Finally, the tiramisu tasted good but we were told it had been frozen and then thawed in the microwave, so there were some cold spots in it. Overall, this place is definitely home style - nothing fancy to be found here. read more

The food was good! Not a bad little place at all. The restaurant was clean and they had the Lions game on. The waitress was ok and the beers came in massive frosty glasses! We would come more often but they don't open till 4pm. read more

Love Villa! Outstanding food, decent pricing, and excellent service... What more could you ask?

Went here for dinner this past Friday night on an invitation from our nephew and his wife along with there little girl. Small, cozy, nicely decorated. We each ordered our food and drinks. Enjoyed some very good salads and then came the food. Looked so very good and tasted great. We enjoyed a nice night out here for the first time and we will defiantly return. The food is that good. read more

We always wonder after visiting a restaurant for the first time how the next visit will be. So many times it has been what we refer to as "one and done. " Not Villa. Food and service were just as good if not better than the first time. From the garlic bread to the calamari (best we've ever had) to the pizza special and cannoli everything was perfection. Love that they use wood burning ovens. The owner came over to speak with us and we let her know this was our second visit and we are not from the area. We will definitely be back. read more

Great food, great service and friendly staff. You must eat here. This place has been here since the 50's. Still going strong with the same people. That speaks tons of their longevity. read more

The Food was 100% awesome and I have been going here since I was born, and I love the Owner she is so friendly, my family has been going here since 1986 or something. The food, the service and atmosphere was great! read more

My first time here was for dinner and drinks tonight. Wonderful Italian food. Excellent service by Stacey. It's a must visit. I'll be back!

Food was fantastic and the staff was very attentive. Have been there numerous times. Will be back soon!

5 stars damn straight! I take comfort in food and this place meet my needs. If your Italian grandmother is no longer with us, God test her soul, come here. You'll cry. It's like going to your Italian grandmother's house for dinner from the music to the food. It's good it's simple. The bread is Italian and soft. The dressing is special. I bet they make it in house. The salad not fancy just a simple dinner salad. Some ice berg and shredded cabbage. Now for the gnocchi. It's dense and the sauce just good marinara. I love it. I'm positively CHARMED. read more

One of the best restaurants in Michigan with Pizza that tastes the way Pizza is supposed to taste! Delicioso! I have so many wonderful memories of this restaurant and I have nothing but good things to say about it! Great food! Great service! Long live Villa! Thank you for being such a gem! read more

Went here on a weeknight with some friends. Old school, good and proof service. The soup (chicken noodle) was so good- unfortunately filled me up a lot and was hard to eat all my pasta. I had the linguini Romano and it was a healthy portion that I could not finish. They have a wide menu of pasta and pizzas. Definitely an affordable and tasty option for out to eat. read more

We love this place! I went with a group of friends and the waitress was super accommodating with our requests to split things/get separate checks/etc. We also had a toddler with us and everyone was so nice and patient with her. The food was very good and the portions were very generous. Everyone took home leftovers for later. If you're looking for a cute, family oriented restaurant with quality food and service this is your place! read more

We had a huge selection from this restaurant as carry out. We really enjoyed most of the food. The minestrone soup, linguine with clam sauce, and fettuccine Alfredo were very good. We also enjoyed the garden salad and Caesar salad. I didn't get to try the meatball sub but my nephew seemed to enjoy it. Looking forward to our next visit read more

It's my best friends favorite place and we go there a lot! I absolutely LOVE their chicken Marsala he gets the baked mosticolli --- usually good service! Tonight had a great server but there's one we will not allow to Serve us but hopefully she's better than she's been to us before! Owner walks around and greets everyone- she's a very sweet woman. Before going with him I never been there but I won't go anywhere else for pasta - my absolute favorite Italian spot in the area! Prices very reasonable ans a full bar! read more

Lasagna, chicken Parmesan, eggplant parmigiana, fettuccine Alfredo-all deliciousness with excellent meat sauce. All meals included salad with the best house dressing and Italian bread basket. Amazing food and wonderful service. read more

Doesn't look like much but the food is fresh and authentic. The bread taste like it's made daily!!! Fair prices and definitely I am going back again Amazing food for great price!! read more

This is truly a Eastpointe classic. Top notch Italian food at a reasonable price without compromising quality or flavor! My wonderful Aunt worked here almost 30 years and still dose!!! Now that's family style! So what will it be pizza, antipasto? Maybe the chicken parm or the Tuesday and Thursday specials? Whatever you may of had in mind or have your italian taste buds craving this Eastpointe staple is the spot to satisfy all your needs. The sauce... the sauce... so good. Promise just like your little old hypothetical italian grandma makes!!! I like how it has the back seating area that makes this place ideal for family gatherings or events. I grew up coming here celebrating so many things with family. Authentic Italian food in an old style Italian restaurant. Nice vast selection of beer and wine they have to offer as well. come see what its all about for yourself! read more

This place is the real frickin' deal! Find it when you are in the area. We were totally out of our stomping groungs and I turned to YELP for recommendations on where to eat. Unassuming exterior, small parking area and rear door entrance, had me uncertain we would stay, but we decided to give it a try based on the 4+ stars from each reviewer. With a warm greeting from our server, Val, we quickly settled and dug in. Ordering the fried cheese raviolis for an appetizer, Veal Parm dinner, and Lasagna for my husband. FAB-U-LOUS! The cream Italian-type house dressing on the dinner salad is as good as everyone says it is. The entrees were spot on - well done. But I still can't get over those frickin' fried raviolis! They had to be handmade and were perfect. I am about to drive out to Eastpointe again, just for the raviolis! Saying that service was great is an understatement. I play a little game with my husband, of what waitstaff I would steal and from where if we ever opened up an eatery and Val is now on my list. Professional, attentive, personable, and she clearly loves Villa and the restaurant family. I sent the poor woman on an impossible mission when I asked if the Italian Lemon Ice I wanted for dessert was dairy-free. (I was just curious) It was the perfect topper to an excellent meal. My husband loved his strawberry cheesecake. Can't wait to go back. read more

One of my favorite local Italian restaurants. You cannot beat a good family owned place with a great pizza, especially if you like deep dish. They have a fantastic and generous antipasto salad and you can upgrade the dinner salad to this for a small price, you should definitely do that! I'm also a big fan of their chicken Marsala and chicken piccata. Not a veal eater so I can't speak to it. And their lasagna is to die for! Please support this family business if you're in the area by buying some carry out so they're still around when we have the pleasure of dining in again! read more

A local gem! If you live in the city of eastpointe and you haven't tried this place you are really missing out. It is delicious. I ordered the ritoni joes. The Italian sausage was on point. It was really an excellent dish. The portion size was very generous and you get a soup or a salad as a side. My wife ordered the manicotti and she said it was very good also. I ordered take out and the staff was very friendly. Food was ready real fast. The price was fair and it's what you'd expect to pay at a place like this. Excellent experience overall. I will definitely return. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a good meal. read more

I had heard great things about this place, decided to stop in. Hoping it was an off day for them. I'd recommend you skip the Steak Scilliano, it was gross: flat and dry, the owner/manager saw I didn't eat it and took it off my bill. Dinner guest had Tony's Trio and it was pretty good, average Italian food in my opinion. I doubt I'll give them another try as there are some great Italian places out there. read more

I fulfilled a longtime need to finally eat inside. Not on the Eastside as much as I used to be, but had the tasty pizza back in the 90s. I added a photo but had the Tony's trio. Which is helpful to get a taste of 3 dishes. Most places only have two combos. Loved the presentation of it. Plus a salad, so nice deal and price. Could use a touch more flavor and food wasnt as hot as expected but enjoyed all three dishes nevertheless. Service was nice. Definitely would be here more regularly. Nice no frills coziness. Someone mention the dimmed lights which adds a nice romanticism for daters. Two sides of the room to chose from with a bar and TVs on one side. Enjoyed the ranch/house but not as much as people hyped it. It has lasted this long so must be doing something right. Family owned still I believe. read more
