Bugatti Ristorante

I recently dined at Bugatti Ristorante for the first time after their move from the previous location near Dallas Love Field, and I am thrilled to say that the exceptional service and incredible Italian cuisine remain just as outstanding as ever. My experience at Bugatti was nothing short of perfection, especially since it was a joint birthday celebration. The focaccia bread appetizer was a delightful start to the meal, and the limoncello and aperol spritz cocktails were both refreshing and delicious. As for the main course, every dish we tried was beyond exceptional. The tortellini alla panna, veal parmigiana, manicotti, and spaghetti carbonara were all bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. To top off the meal, the snowball, cannoli, and cheesecake desserts were absolute must-tries and left us satisfied and happy. The cozy atmosphere of Bugatti Ristorante only enhanced our dining experience, and the attentive and friendly staff made us feel welcome and taken care of throughout our meal. I cannot recommend Bugatti Ristorante highly enough for anyone looking for an unforgettable Italian dining experience in Dallas. I will definitely be returning to savor more of their exquisite dishes. Five stars all the way!

SO IMPRESSED!!! I have not been impressed by a new restaurant in a long time. The service and ambiance truly live up to their motto: fine dining on a first name basis. The servers are so attentive and wonderful. The owner came to meet and talk to us and was so kind. The food was delicious and very fresh! I have not had to blow on my food to cool it down in a long time and was so pleasantly surprised. This is a cute little hidden gem owned by a local business owner. it is so romantic and beautiful inside as well so will definitely be back

WOW!!! This was delicious 😋 😍 We started off with being pleasantly greeted by Z. So friendly, he then sat us down at a very elegant table with a beautiful decorative table. The ambiance was quiet yet warm and inviting. We order drinks, and some delicious bread. Then the soup WOW you must try the mushrooms soup. 🍄 yummy. The salads were fresh and so tasty. Love the flavor of the vinaigrette and the blue cheese dressing. The main dishes.... salmon with dill sauce yummy. 😋 The lasagna was great the spaghetti was delicious 😋. We even saved room for the decadent dessert of cheesecake. The service was amazing the drinks were never empty. I WILL DEFINITELY BE COMING BACK Thank you!!! 💚 😍💜😊

One of the area's best restaurants -- and the best Italian restaurant. After being closed because of the Pandemic, Bugatti opened in Farmer's Branch just off 635 and Luna. Look for the large Bugatti flag next to the Stars and Stripes. Bugatti is outstanding because of its tasty cuisine, attentive service from a high energy committed team, and warm hospitality from founder Zee. If you were a regular at Bugatti on Northwest Highway at Bachman Lake, don't be surprised if Zee greats you by your name, then warms says "Welcome home." When many restaurants reopen they lose something. Sometimes the majority of their staff. Or it's the quality of the cuisine. Or the feeling of wonderful hospitality. Bugatti at the new location has maintained its high standard of excellence with many familiar faces and the same tasty dishes from the past. My favorites include the salmon with angel hair pasta and the dinner salad.

I want to give a huge shout-out to Muneer and his brother Zee at Bugatti Restaurant. These guys are the definition of genuine hospitality. From the moment we walk in, they treat us like family — welcoming, smiling, and always going the extra step to make sure we’re taken care of. Their service is truly exceptional. They pay attention to the small details, make honest recommendations, and create a warm, comfortable atmosphere. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers and take pride in what they do. And the food? Amazing. Fresh, flavorful, and consistently delicious you can taste the passion behind it. Thank you, Muneer, Zee and everyone, for making each visit feel special. Keep up the great work

My experience at Bugatti Ristorante was truly one of the best I’ve had at any restaurant in Dallas. I hosted a client dinner for a group of 15, and from the very beginning, the team went above and beyond. They graciously arranged a private section in the back of the restaurant overlooking a beautiful water feature accented with soft lighting. It created an elegant, intimate atmosphere that felt special without being overdone. The service was outstanding. Our primary server, a gentleman with a full beard whose name is Giorgio, was exceptional. He was warm, thoughtful, and incredibly knowledgeable about every aspect of the menu. His attention to detail elevated the entire evening. He paced the meal perfectly, suggested ideal appetizers and drinks, and guided us seamlessly through the dining experience. What truly set him apart was his depth of knowledge. From explaining how the mineral and sparkling waters were sourced and processed, to walking us through wine selections in detail including grape varietals, flavor profiles, and why each wine would pair well with our dishes, he made the experience feel refined yet approachable. Thanks to his guidance, we selected two bottles of wine that paired beautifully with our meal. The overall experience genuinely felt like dining at a Michelin star level restaurant, largely because of the service, professionalism, and hospitality of the staff. The Food was also amazing! The place settings were beautiful, the timing was flawless, and everyone on the team made us feel genuinely cared for. To top it all off, I was greeted at the front door by the owner himself. He was kind, welcoming, and humble, with no sense of entitlement. Just a genuine desire to ensure every guest had an incredible experience. This dinner left a lasting impression on both me and my clients. I will absolutely continue to bring clients here and will make Bugatti Ristorante a go-to destination every time I’m in Dallas. Highly recommend.

If you want to to have a true experience of what old world america was like. Come here. Relive what it was to be american.

Theres are very few restaurants I can recall with service like Bugatti Ristorante. Its an old school service that doesn’t exist anymore. The owner Zee and bartender Jesse made sure I was taking care of and provided excellent service. I got the Risotto Chilean Seabass, which was recommended by Jesse, and was amazing. If you’re in this area around Dallas, I highly recommend this place!

The restaurant and decor were amazing. This is a new location and they spent a lot to make it beautiful. The service was attentive and they always topped off our water. The crab cake was different from the transitional way of cooking. I didn't think it was fried enough but it was unique. The pasta was delicious and same with the dessert

Ordered chicken parm and it was served to us without cheese. The restaurant is in a new location with no ambience. It was impossible to have a conversation without yelling at each other. Wasted an anniversary dinner on a place that used to be charming in its old location. Save your money!!!

I have to say, we're so happy we found this place... what a gem. The staff are wonderful, the food was outstanding, and the bartender was truly five-star. I even tried to stump him with a drink request, and he knew it (and many others) perfectly. We'll definitely be back. This is now our go-to spot for a great evening. Truly felt like i was on a cruise ship with the 5 star service.

We're staying at the Renaissance Hotel and the front desk gave us a list of restaurants and none were close. Then I went on Yelp and checked on what was close & found this gem. Very good cocktail (old fashioned), crab cakes, cream of mushroom soup & split gnocchi. All very tasty and lovely dinner. Our server (Michael) was great & supported by a very nice gentleman (??) who made sure we had water & fresh/warm bread.

Continuing the tradition, the new location is every bit as good as the old NW Highway spot. Salads, veal, service, and the owner is checking in with all of his guests. The new location is quite a bit further for us East Dallas folks, but it's worth the occasional drive. Owner told us they're opening a pasta/pizza only place close to the old one, this should be pretty good, too.

The best service with great food A++++. Always good. I try to come every time I'm in Dallas.

This is everything you want in a neighborhood Italian restaurant: great food, relaxed setting, and high-quality service. My wife and I have been looking for a go-to Italian restaurant that's easy to get to and we love Bugatti. It's so rare to experience service anymore from a staff that genuinely cares but that's exactly what you get at Bugatti. That starts with Z, its owner, who comes by the table to say hello and make sure everything is just right. And it is.

Discovered this gem of a restaurant and I can't believe it's been in Dallas all of these years and I hadn't heard of it. Impeccable quality and great service. When the owner greets you and comes to your table to check on your order well it doesn't get better than this. It's truly like dining in Italy or our old Italian neighborhood in Chicago where you feel like family. This is their new location and it's gorgeous. We ordered their famous mushroom soup (to die for) lasagna and I ordered their Lemon Chicken piccata which isn't on their menu but the owner Zee, heard my request and placed the order. Their limoncello mmmm, the desserts delizioso! - Crème brûlée and their homemade Bugatti snowball. ci vediamo la prossima volta.

Excellent attentive service. We were a couples group catching up and service was perfect. Drink orders taken immediately and great timing on taking our appetizer and main course orders. Not rushed or forgotten. Everyone loved what we ordered. Husband and I ordered shrimp scampi appetizer. Delicious with the awesome bread they served. I ordered spaghetti carbonara and Husband ordered veal parmesean. We both lovedr our entrees. I will go back for the carbonara, it's some of the best I've ever had. Can't wait to try everything else! Wines by the glass were excellent quality and try the Bugatti spritz. Refreshing! We'll be back!

This place was amazing! From the first encounter with making the reservations and creating a personalized menu for my husband's Birthday, I felt like family. The atmosphere ambiance was so welcoming. The service was premier, fast, and friendly. The food, I tilt my hat to the chef. I ordered lamb chops and they were cooked and seasoned to perfection. My husband's pasta was perfecto, he especially loved the personalized menu and the dessert. I had the creme brulee which were delicious and he had the snow ball, which he finished without me. We really wanted to have and order of canolis to take home but they were out but that's okay we will be back with friends.

I can't say enough great things about Bugatti's. From every meal offering that we have tried, to the excellent service, Bugatti's is one of our very favorite restaurants. We attribute this excellence to the owner - we call him "Z" With the utmost class, yet so down to earth, Z will visit your table making sure all is well. For special times, like a birthday dinner, Z goes out of his way to make you feel special. For catered parties, we always order from Bugattis. From appetizers to desserts, you can depend on Bugatti's offerings to be a hit at your party. For me personally, I also love that Bugatti's offers gluten free and vegetarian meals. Like my first line states... I can't say enough good things about Bugatti's. You'll enjoy every minute you're there and every delicious bite. And you'll have a new friend in Z. :))

The staff were very attentive to all our needs and the food was perfect! The ambiance was on point and restaurant was clean. Friendly service and delicious options.

Best restaurant I have visited in years! The food was amazing and the staff was absolutely unforgettable! It was such an enjoyable evening. Giorgio, our waiter, was absolutely charming! Telling us stories and so personable. And this bartender is unmatched! A true mixologist! You have to try the Lemoncello!!! Highly recommend!! You will thank me!

That's the best Good service Nice people And the owner take care everybody And the food is phenomenal Pretty good dessert

NEW RESTAURANT PREVIEW Bugatti Ristorante plans to open in this new restaurant and entertainment development, Mercer Boardwalk, at I-635 and Luna Rd. in Farmers Branch. The owner Zee, who has made the previous location a delightful experience for me for several decades, has selected a great spot as you can see in the pictures. Bugatti's is known for authentic Northern Italian cuisine with in-home-crafted recipes, and attentive service where every customer is made to feel like a long-time regular. I can vouch for that claim. In fact, Zee's oversight and attention to detail is exemplary. Rare, in fact. You'll notice the walkway and waterway just outside the yet-to-be-completed restaurant. It has the makings of a perfect environment. Speaking of that, previously announced restaurants in Mercer Boardwalk include the Barrel & Bones Craft Bar & Smokehouse, now open Black Agave Cocina y Cantina, now open Dough Bro's to Go Copa Club Drunken Oyster When will Bugatti Ristorante open? I emailed Zee, and am looking to hear back, but peeking through the windows suggests it'll be a while. But worth waiting for.

Great food and the wait staff made our meal special. There is a private room for larger groups and beautiful patio.

Its a very special place. My wife and I were engaged there and had our rehearsal dinner there. The menu is incredible and the food is amazing. The staff is second to none. I give it my highest recommendation!

Wife and I went to the "new' location for a good friends 83rd birthday party. The host had thoughtfully selected several options for appetizer, main course, desert and wine. My wife and I each got different items and ALL was DELICIOUS! We enjoyed it so much we are taking our birthday friend back as our guest. We haven't eaten at this or the old location in probably 15 years and had just forgotten about it as I haven't worked in Dallas for years. Service, food quality and experience were excellent. New location doesn't have the old location's "charm" as it is in a new brighter/lighter finished out space. Again, we ARE GOING BACK!! Sorry no photos

I've been enjoying Bugatti's since the Mid 80s. I've always found outstanding food and exceptional service. Zee and his team make you feel like family. It is great for VIP business meeting, and has become our personal favorite for special occasions. You can count on the best here. Check out their new location on the Boardwalk.

The most delicious food I've had in a long time. I got the Chicken Francescana and it melted in my mouth. My husband got the Mushroom soup....yum and also the chicken. The complimentary bread is so good. I highly recommend the Cappuccino pie for dessert, I crave it. The owner Zee and staff are so friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. The restaurant is lacking the warm cozy feeling. It's a nice place, but could make it a little more cozy. This is my new favorite place.

Bugatti Gold! We went to the new Bugatti's for the first time since they moved, and found some changes, but everything important was the same. It was so comforting to have Zee greet us, as he used to, and take such lovely care of us. Our server and everyone else on staff we encountered were so welcoming and took perfect care of us. The new space is quite different from the original - lighter, updated, a little louder, but very comfortable. All we ordered was spot-on delicious, exactly as it has always been. We sat down to personalized menus on our table, commemorating our anniversary, and the cappuccino pie was the perfect way to celebrate. Going to Bugatti's makes dinner special for everyone - go there and celebrate!

SO IMPRESSED!!! I have not been impressed by a new restaurant in a long time. The service and ambiance truly live up to their motto: fine dining on a first name basis. The servers are so attentive and wonderful. The owner came to meet and talk to us and was so kind. The food was delicious and very fresh! I have not had to blow on my food to cool it down in a long time and was so pleasantly surprised. This is a cute little hidden gem owned by a local business owner. it is so romantic and beautiful inside as well so will definitely be back

This the most disappointing place I have eaten at in years! The wait staff was pushy, delivering two bottles to the table asking which one we wanted--and we wanted neither! They took our salads away almost mid-bite before we could stop them. One entree was delivered 15 mins after the others. In addition the poor service, the food was terrible--gritty escargot, pasta sauce the tasted as if it were from a supermarket. So disappointed, we will not return! If I could give it a zero, that would be my rating.

Great atmosphere..great food and amazing service! Owner waited on us at the bar. Great bourbon selection and the barreled Old Fashioned are the best!

My wife and I celebrated our 25th Wedding a Anniversary with 250 family & friends at this wonderful restaurant in 1995. We have returned many times to enjoy another delicious meal and to see Zee our friend and owner. Now we are looking forward to another wonderful event as we celebrate our 55th Wedding Anniversary next week at the new Bugatti's location on LBJ Frwy. The food is awesome and the ambience is perfect. I highly recommend Bugatti's to all my family and friends as "the place to go"for all special occasions.

Dinner last night and catering to go today. This place is hard to describe. Service: Outstanding. Food: Outstanding. Prices: Super reasonable. That about sums it up. The owner, Zee, knows how to run a restaurant, plain and simple. Go there. You won't be disappointed.

Food was great. Service was great. Ambience was great. The Bugatti's restaurant started at the corner of Shady Trail and Walnut Hill Lane in Dallas. From there, it moved over to the Bachman Lake area. And now they're most recent location. I married an Italian and her critique of the restaurant was very good as well.

Went in after a long trip to town, the restaurant is very nice, and the staff is great. Z and Jessie were both very kind and their food recommendations were on point.

Arrived for an early dinner tonight to find that they were still only offering a Valentines menu. We decided to stay even though the prices were exceptionally high. We ordered Veal Parmigiana and Shrimp Scampi. Both dishes were priced at $49 We also got 2 Ceasar salads priced at $12. The salads were small but good and our main courses also good but not worth the price tag. Staff was

We celebrated a birthday here and truly had a wonderful time! Mr. Bugatti and his team make each person feel special and valued. The food was TOP tier from appetizers to dessert, and the ambience was just the perfect blend of nice but causal. I cannot recommend this place enough!!

Food was excellent, but overpriced. Server was inattentive, but host was very welcoming. Took at least 10 min after we were seated to get water, then another 10 to get a menu. Ordered apps and drinks and apps came out about 10 minutes later, but drinks did not. After another 10 min or so, had to ask flag down waiter to get the drinks and when we inquired where they were, "he said, They are coming." These were not mixed drinks so we were perplexed. Waiter never offered the complimentary bread--again, we had to ask for it.

My husband and I had a wonderful experience at Buggati's. The service was excellent and the food was delicious! We will definitely be back

Very enjoyable evening at Bugatti. Service was fantastic: friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. The Chianti by the glass was excellent, as was the Pinot Grigio. We began with an order of the stuffed mushrooms with crab and hollandaise sauce. I don't think I can describe how good it was. Definitely the best stuffed mushrooms I've ever had. Dinner salads were OK but nothing special. The rigatoni with sausage was fantastic as was the carbonara. We probably shouldn't have, but we had dessert and tried the snowball. Unfortunately, we ate every bit of it. Simply delicious. Cannot wait to go back.

Great food FANTASTIC service! I greatly enjoy this hidden gem. Amazed at the astonishing high and consistent level of personal service.

We have been going to Bugatti's for over a decade. The old location still holds dear in my heart but the new location (just opened Feb 20245) is just as wonderful. If the old walls could talk, it would be to share all the love, celebrations of family and friends who gathered together for great food, service, and sincere heart that goes into each person who walks in the door. The food and service are impeccable. We have celebrated holidays, anniversaries, date night, business meetings, and at times just to go in and enjoy seeing our extended family. You can go in shorts or decked out for ball; the white table clothed tables, fresh flowers on each table and the smiles of each staff member greeting you like family is unforgettable. Each time we visit, it feels like we came home. We cannot say enough about Bugatti's. GO AND EXPERIENCE the EXCELLENCE of Italian cuisine and the Bugatti family. Go see the owner Mr. Z. Tell him Michael and Denice Zanella sent you!

I would give this place 10 stars if I could! I ate here a few years ago while I was in the area for work and loved it, so I went back to experience their new location on this trip. Fabulous all around. I was in town for some training and dined here three times. Zee was so warm and welcoming, after the first day I was greeted by name and shown to a table he saved for me despite not having a reservation. He took the time to sit with me and asked how my training was going in between managing a busy dining room. I truly felt like family the moment I walked in the door each time. Tony took great care of me twice, his service is absolutely impeccable. Friendly, knowledgeable and incredibly attentive. I enjoyed my third time at the bar with Jesse, so fun! Tell him your "poison" and he'll create an amazing craft cocktail for you on the spot. My favorite dish hands down was the cannelloni manicotti combination, the tortellini and carbonara were also amazing. Don't skip the mushroom soup or the house salad- I wish I could have taken some of their house made vinaigrette home to California with me! I will never forget how cared for and welcome the Bugatti staff made me feel during the most stressful week of my entire year. I'll be back every opportunity I get!

This place is Amazing everything you would expect from.an Italian Restaurant from the Wines to the Pasta and array of meals on the Menu. Unfortunately I didnt get anyone else's meals due to being hypnotized by the bread that's like biting in to a cloud and the taste buds reaction of glorious food in your mouth. As for my meal it was devoured as fast as the Calamari was however I was able to snap a pic of the two mentioned. I will definitely be visiting this restaurant again as long as I'm able to. You owe yourself the best meal you'll have and an atmosphere that matches with the hostess and waiters.

Came here to celebrate my girlfriend's birthday. My second time, her first. First off, every employee I saw was wearing their mask and properly. So kudos to them. Well when we first arrived Mr. Zhee greeted us and asked for our reservation. He showed us to the bar where we could wait until our table was ready. After that he personally showed us to our table. From the moment we sat down to the moment we left the entire staff was amazing!! We started off with the calamari, it was great especially with the sauce. One of the waitresses told us to try the sauce with their bread (she brought is some chili flakes to add to the sauce) and it was delicious too. I had a cup of minestrone soup as part of my entree. It had so much flavor and it paired great with the bread they give you!! I decided to step outside of my comfort zone and ordered the Seafood Belleze. It had clams, mussels, squid, shrimp (2 types), crab claws, and bell peppers over a bed of penne pasta. I would definitely order this again and highly recommend it to others. There was so much food I had some to take home too!! My gf ordered the grilled chicken, she expected some small piece of dry chicken with some veggies. She said that it was really good and would eat it again. It looked really good and if I didn't love seafood and Italian I might order it lol. We ended dinner with cappuccino pie and tiramisu. The tiramisu is hands down one fo the best I've had and could eat a whole plate of it. The cappuccino pie caught our eye while we were looking at the menu, so we had to try it too. It was a good choice, because it was absolutely delicious too!!! But I'm not surprised, everything here is amazing! The price is a little up there, but definitely worth it. The restaurant itself has a great ambiance, and the employees are super friendly and add to the experience! Can't wait to come here again!! Oh almost forgot, they brought out these little homemade cookies along with our dessert. And they were delicious as well!!

Wow, this restaurant was a treat! My coworkers and I went here for dinner at 7pm and were seated quickly. Service was great and the employees are friendly. It is a classic Italian restaurant. The food was great, one of the best pasta restaurants I've been to. I got the Rigatoni with Italian sausage with marinara sauce (not pictured) . The flavors and spices were perfect and tasted great. Seasoned perfectly. My coworkers got the fettuccini alfredo and the classic spaghetti with meatballs. They enjoyed their dish as well. Dessert is always my favorite part of the meal! I got the Creme Brule (pictured). It is one of the best creme brulee that I've ever had. It was mixed with strawberries and had a yummy crust around it. Texture was great, so delicious! Overall a wonderful restaurant! Service is great, food is yummy, classy atmosphere. What else can you ask for!

Amazing dinner. Greeted warmly and seated with the class of a fine Italian restaurant. If you are looking for Olive Garden Italian you are in the wrong place. The menu is extensive and includes many of my favorites from growing up in an Italian family. My wife had the Linguini Pescatore, which had more melt in your mouth shrimp than a normal shrimp dinner plus crab claws in such a light sauce it was barely noticeable. I had the gnocchi, my go to and how I judge Italian restaurants. It was cooked to perfection, the marinara was very tasty but not overbearing or sweet like some others restaurants. Our waiter was fantastic and on the spot. Finally the prices were good for this quality of food and service. We highly recommend trying this gem, and if we lived here we would be regulars like obviously many dining were.

This was a great restaurant to come eat at with friends or if you were to go on a date. The restaurant lives up to its name of Bugatti with its service and food. A few friends and I came here for a birthday party and we were not disappointed at all! Service: As soon as you walk in, you are greeted by the owner. As I mentioned we came here for a birthday celebration and had a reservation. The restaurant was very accommodating to our needs. They even surprised all of us with a small personalized menu with the birthday girls name on it. The waiters were very kind and helpful, always checking on us to see if our needs were met. Food: This may not be the best Italian food I have had. But it was pretty decent food with good portion sizes. The meals are served with bread that has pesto spread on the top. - Stuffed Mushrooms: These are stuffed with crabmeat and seasoned very well. I'm not a fishy taste person so I was not too thrilled to eat this as you could really taste the crab in this. Although the rest of table seemed to enjoy this appetizer. - Pizza Margarita: This is your typical margarita pizza with tomatoes and cheese. This didn't stand out in particular to me. But overall it was still delicious to eat. - Shrimp Scampi: The shrimp was sautéed well with olive oil, garlic, and this creamy white sauce. It was very delicious to eat and recommend ordering this an appetizer. However, beware there are only a few pieces of shrimp. - Spaghetti Alla Carbona: This was probably the best dish out of the others entrees that was ordered. It was tossed in a creamy sauce, with bits of bacon, egg, cheese and green peas. I would say they overload on the green peas. But other than that the entree was really good. The flavor and portion size of this dish was perfect! - Tiramisu: Wowww just wow!! This was one of the better tiramisus I have ever had. It basically just melted in your mouth. I would not mind going back here just to have this dessert again. If you are in the area, I would say this place is worth checking out!

We always love coming here and have never had a bad meal. Today we sat at the bar and had the pleasure of chatting with Tony. What a wonderful time. As always the food and service were impeccable.

I'm so disappointed with the taste of such an expensive restaurant.There were only four tables of guests among two waiters, and I had to call the waiter who came to the next table to refill the water. I think it took about 7 minutes to refill the water. As I kept looking around to finding waiters,the customer sitting at the next table kept looking at me. The tiramisu I ordered for dessert was dry and twisted, and the plate lost its appetite as shown in the picture,it was so dirty and has lots of scratches . The waiter said the tiramisu was originally like this. Haha When I go to a restaurant, I only eat tiramisu and cream brûlée for dessert, and I have worked at a bakery for more than a year I didn't expect it, but when I left the restaurant, I couldn't see the any waiter, so I couldn't even say goodbye. I regret that I should have come out without giving them any tips. It's a restaurant where I can't even give a star rating. If you don't want to throw away your money, don't ever go.

My wife and I come here every year for our anniversary. This place is absolutely incredible. The food is great and the service is world class. Every time we come in it, the owner makes us feel like he is lucky to have us there. The staff is so well trained. We never feel rushed. They make the visit an experience. Best Italian I've had in Dallas.

Amazing food and service! Went here to watch the super bowl and had a great time with Z, the owner!

I was stuck at my hotel without a car so I ran/walked a quarter mile over here in the rain looking for a place to eat before dark. I was greeted warmly by the Maître d', then decided to get something to-go, as I wasn't sure if it was going to rain even harder. So I went to the bar to order. I wasn't in a particular talkative mood, a little wet from the rain, and tired. Tony, the head bartender was super friendly and struck up a conversation and got me to lighten up. Then, once he learned I had walked through the rain, he offered/insisted to personally drive me and my food back to the hotel. Of course we always see people going above and beyond, but his positive energy and genuine good will was unbelievable. The local folks at the bar said proudly, "that's our Tony!" I regret that I'm from out of town, otherwise I'd eat here more often. It's people like Tony that remind you that for everything bad, there is always more good out there. Oh yeah, the food was great. I'll spare the food pics as it was to-go and eaten in my hotel room and wouldn't do the presentation justice. Every box was also wrapped carefully in plastic wrap to prevent spilling in the bag. The salad dressing, olive oil based, was especially good. Chicken Marsala was excellent. I'll be back.

I visited on a weekday night when the restaurant was mostly empty. I chose to eat at the bar, which may have to led to a more rushed service experience than I otherwise would have had. Entrees come with a choice or soup or salad and garlic bread. The bread was so-so. I ordered the chicken parm, which is usually a safe bet in most places. The food was good, if not the cheese-laden, pasta accompanied arrangement one might expect. Not sure the prices justify a visit, but it was a serviceable meal if not particularly inspiring.

Support local! This is five star service in every sense. We felt well taken care of without feeling rushed or smothered. The food is fantastic, and all is reasonably priced. Perfect for a special occasion!

Drove all the way to Bugatti to find them completely closed. They said the lease expired so they are now ONLY catering until spring. So disappointed.
