Lola & Giuseppe's Trattoria

The hype is real!! Fast & friendly service, delicious food, at a great price. Triple crown, 5 stars. Hidden gem! Everything we tried was extremely flavorful! We had the Onion soup, fettuccine Alfredo, and the sampler platter (chicken parm, meat lasagna, and spaghetti with a meatball). Christie, our server, was very friendly and helpful. She also never rushed us, despite the restaurant only having a small amount of tables. Already raving about this place to our friends, and just booked our next reservation to come back!

We came from Chillicothe Ohio we were an hour early and walked in and they told us they could seat us on the patio immediately or we could wait the hour to sit inside we choose the patio! It was quiet and decorated very nicely! Staff was beyond polite and easy to have conversations with! Our waitress was Hannah and she was such a delight! We tried the shrimp scampi special and it was beyond delicious and filling. We also got a cannoli and it was superb! Def recommend and will be making more visits soon!

My husband and I can't say enough good things about this place! It's smaller but cozy and still nice! Definitely a mom and pop restaurant which we liked! The Pasta Fritta appetizer was fantastic. The Ceasar Salad top tier. You could tell the dressing was homemade and fresh! For the main entrees we got the Guiseppe's Trio Platter and the Chicken Marsala. When I tell you, we ate until our stomachs almost exploded, we did lol! We didn't have room for dessert. Our waitress was great...I forget her name, maybe Bethany? And the manager or owner came back to ask how our experience was and he was super sweet. If you are looking for a great Italian spot to enjoy with your partner or friends, you will not go wrong visiting this restaurant! Make a reservation otherwise you likely won't get in...they are busy from open to close...and for good reason. We will be back!

Lola & Giuseppe’s is a Solid 5 in my book. The dishes are amazingly flavorful and generous. The onion soup is a twist on any other onion soup I’ve ever had. The atmosphere is casual but intimate. The staff is friendly and responsive. The owner stopped by the table to chat with us for a moment.

Impeccable. I just moved to the area, my friends eat here weekly, and I see why. Easily some of the best Italian I’ve ever had, it was just amazing. I cannot wait to be back to try more of the menu. Everyone was so nice and service was great. Say hi to Steve!

My goodness… this place gets 10 stars! Such delightful service. The owner came out several times to chat and check on us. The food is absolutely incredible. Best eggplant Parmesan and Alfredo we’ve ever had. The thick basil dressing on their Giuseppe salad is to DIE for (no wonder they sell it to go!) …. And don’t even get me started on the tiramisu. Best I’ve ever had, including homemade by my Sicilian mom. :) Make a reservation and RUN don’t walk to this delightful little spot!

I was so impressed with this little restaurant!! I heard about them through TikTok and the food did not disappoint. It’s a little place - definitely make a reservation. But they also have a little patio. You can tell this place cares about the details. The owner walks around, greets, helps, and is just a delight. Our waitress Chris was awesome, just overall great service. The food was phenomenal, possibly best Italian I’ve ever had. 100000% I’ll be back and recommend to anyone.

Very quaint little restaurant. You feel like you are in Grandma's house. The service was excellent, the quality of the food outstanding. The only flaw they have is the portion size. It is absolutely ridiculous the amount of food they give for such a low price. It's hard to sample the menu when the food is so good but the sizes are so big, you don't have room for everything. And like I said you won't find a more reasonably priced restaurant, especially for the quality of food they provide. And make sure you stop next door and visit their bakery.

Wow! Where do I begin!! I made a reservation for this restaurant after I friend of mine raved about it. Our reservation was at 7:30p and we were seated promptly upon arrival. Our servers name was DJ, she did an impeccable job. Very friendly, answered all of our questions and was very good at her job!) We ordered the Pasta Fritto for an appetizer and it was incredible. Bread service was included with the meal and the garlic bread was good! We both decided to get Alfredo and it was 10/10. Super creamy and rich, noodles were cooked perfectly. We then ordered 3 different desserts and brought them home to try. We got the Cannoli, Tiramisu and Carrot Cake. They're all made in the bakery next door and fresh as can be. The carrot cake was my favorite! I would highly recommend this place! The ambience was quaint and pretty, staff were incredible, food was top notch and the prices were fair. I can't wait to come back!

Review by :Avila.Eats on TikTok, insta, YouTube Service: wait staff and owner are friendly and attentive. Water was never an issue and all questions were answered thoughtfully. Ambiance/Atmosphere: inside is small but well decorated. Spacious although cramped. Nice interior matching the home like exterior. Food: Spaghetti and meatball is alright. The sauce is a strong acid forward sauce and the meatball is tender and well flavored. The noodles were perfectly cooked and it all paired well together. You could take it or leave it. Lasagna was great. Thick layered meaty lasagna perfectly cooked and balanced between all ingredients. Large portion and thankfully so. I'd recommend. Chicken parm was delicious. Crispy well seasoned chicken breast. This is one of the better chicken parm's I've had in central Ohio. Well seasoned and perfectly cheesy. I'd highly recommend. Chicken Marsala was great. Juicy well seasoned chicken breast paired with a Delicious and well executed marsala mushroom sauce. I'm not a fan of risotto but this is was exceptional. I'd recommend. Chocolate espresso cake was good. I could see this being high on the list for a coffee lovers dessert list. Dense chocolate sponge with a delicious espresso frosting. Bread pudding with whiskey sauce was delicious. Soft, warm, well seasoned bread pudding In a delicious cream and whiskey infused sauce. This was the best bread pudding I've had to date. I'd highly recommend. Cannoli was delicious. Crispy shell and a freshly done ricotta mascarpone cream. The cream itself was a cinnamon cream and paired excellently with the chocolate chips. The best cannoli I've had In Ohio. I'd insist on this order. Carrot cake amazing. This is one of the best if not the best carrot cake in central Ohio. Deep orange color and packed with nuts. No raisins but the cream cheese frosting makes up for it with the subtle sweetness. I'd insist on this order.

Lovely locally owned authentic Italian spot tucked away in the back of a shopping plaza. The restaurant itself is tiny, but warm and inviting. They have beautiful artwork and booths and you can see into the kitchen, which was super cool. The food was delectable. We typically don't go out for Italian, but this was legit. Handmade pasta and the best tiramisu I've ever had in my life!!! The wait staff were lovely and helpful in assisting us in making choices throughout the night. Definitely recommend!!

Great service and good. Ended up having to order takeout due to there being to much people but besides the fact it only took 20 minutes for 3 entrees and desert. From that point I drove 20 minutes back to my house and it still tasted perfect would recommend.

Went here for Valentine's Day and just had a great experience. The Caesar dressing was the best I've ever had, the service was so quick and everyone was really friendly. Can't wait to go back!!

It's a sweet little place that serves exceptional Italian food. Eggplant parm is one of my favorites and Lola and Giuseppe make the best I've ever had!

Absolutely I love this restaurant. The sauce is delicious. It is not sweet. The atmosphere is cozy and the owner always comes out to greet and make sure everything is going well. It is my new favorite place.

Lola Guiseppes is truly a hidden gem in a small hidden location at Gahanna. The place is open for merely 4hours for service. They get booked very fast and only allow reservations. There is no chance you can get a walk in as they are booked for days. The food is very good. The onion soup is to die for. The pasta sauce everything is delicious. It's your Italian grandmothers kitchen recipes. The servers and owners are very hospitable and friendly. Definitely worth the visit.

Lola & Giuseppe's Trattoria Meat Lasagna A giant portion! 5 layers of fresh ground chuck, four cheeses, and Anthony's marinar... $16.00

This is without a doubt not only the BEST Italian restaurant in town, but one of the best. Period. It is cozy, the service is perfectly timed, and the food is a pleasure to the palate. Don't leave without cannolis to savor. One of the finest wines in Italy is a Brunello on the menu. Reservations need to be made well in advance. Don't miss this place!

I am not trying to exaggerate here, but this may be the best Italian in Columbus, OH. The food was exceptional! My wife and I came here for my birthday, and it did not disappoint The service is outstanding. The owner walks around and greets everybody and makes everybody feel very welcome. Our waitress was extremely friendly. She kept bringing out fresh bread without any hesitation. The restaurant itself is very quaint. I can't imagine it can hold more than 30 people. There's plenty of parking. The place itself was cheap too! An appetizer, two salads, bottle of wine, two entrees, and two desserts for under $110? That feels like highway robbery! If we lived closer to Gahanna, we would be regulars!

Had a feast at Lola and Giuseppe's! It's a small local Italian place and they also have a bakery! They had lots of choices for noodles and I liked how the noodle choices were interchangeable. We went in without a reservation and were first quoted an hour wait but thankfully a spot opened up out on the patio so we were seated promptly! I recommend making a reservation for weekend nights. We started off with some complimentary garlic bread. The bread was soft and pretty good but it doesn't seem like it's made in house because when we asked for more garlic on it, they said it came pre-packaged so they gave us a little bowl of raw garlic to spread on it. Some more roasted garlic on it would have been great They had a sampler where you could get a piece of lasagna, spaghetti with meatball, and eggplant Parmesan on one dish! The eggplant Parmesan was the best with crispy eggplant and plenty of sauce. My favorite dish of the night was the fettuccine Alfredo. I chose shrimp as my protein. Although the shrimp was just okay, I liked how tender the noodles were and the sauce was creamy and not too salty! The gnocci was also very chewy and tasty, and I did like the addition of veggies, but the Italian sausage made it a bit on the salty side. The chicken parm came with spaghetti and green beans. The chicken was crispy on the outside and went well with the spaghetti. The portion sizes overall were large so there were leftovers! The prices are not bad for the size. For dessert, we got the cannoli. It was filled with tons of filling and chocolate chips. Overall the meal tasted very homey and hearty. Our server efficient and it was a beautiful night to dine outside so we left very happy!

Loved everyone part of it. Was a first date. The sat a cute elderly couple next to us who were super friendly. Staff was very nice and patience with us. The food was stellar. The building is quite small so tall people like me felt in the way if seated in the aisle. Other than that, highly recommend.

What an amazing little place I've found. We had such a good experience here, we came with a couple friends and everyone was delighted by the taste of the food, the only thing I don't recommend to order is the fried spaghetti, yes you read it right, deep fried spaghetti, it didn't tickle my whistle at all, maybe you'd like it but I wouldn't order that again, for the rest of the food no complains, everything was delicious, amazing service and great ambiance who did say good things doesn't come in a small packages? Make reservations before you go.

Nice but very small. Music too loud for such a small place. Played nice Italian music. Mandy our server was very nice but obvious she was new. Bread served was very tasteless. Lasagne would have been enjoyed but served lukewarm instead of piping hot. No excuse for this. The tiramasu was just ok nothing special. When I made my reservation I did put down that it was special occasion- birthday. I did expect anything but to acknowledge my husband's special occasion. No excuse for this.

This was my first visit since moving back to OH. I used to be a regular and now I will be again. The carmelized onion soup was so delicious- I asked for 2 extra spoons so my friends could taste it and they loved it. The chicken marsala was excellent. All the components were melded together for a symphony. For dessert I had a cannoli, the best I've had in years. The portions were so big that I took home half of my entree and most of my cannoli. Trish our server was excellent. Be sure to make a reservation. It may take a while to get one. Totally worth the wait.

It's a cozy little place. An owner greeted us and our server was very pleasant al though she seemed to be dealing with a LOT of tables. We went at 6:45 on a weeknight. The house made Caesar dressing was fabulous although it came on the side & usually with Caesar salad it is tossed with the dressing. It would have been better tossed in the kitchen. My friend got Giuseppe's Sampler and was very pleased with it, especially the lasagna. It was HUGE. I ordered chicken Marsala and I think now I got the wrong dish. The chicken cutlet was breaded & deep fried, the red sauce seemed just like their regular red sauce & I did not detect any mushrooms or wine. It was still good and such a large portion that I took half home. But I won't order Marsala there again. I had an excellent tiramisu for dessert and my friend got carrot cake, which she enjoyed very much.

I chose Lola & Giuseppe's for my birthday dinner after hearing the hype for years. Reservations are hard to get, so I snapped one up when I saw it. The food was... Fine? I was expecting super authentic but it tasted like any other Italian restaurant. I was a big fan of the free garlic bread, but not a fan of the cramped quarters or the bathroom that butted up against a table. (Imagine being seated at that table? Ew.) The service was SO great, though. Altogether, I'd say it's a middle of the road option. Just come with realistic expectations.

Small and intimate restaurant, took a bit to finally be able to get in with a reservation but well worth it. Food was all delicious, and will definitely return. Service, everyone was very friendly and outgoing.

Lobster and shrimp ravioli and sampler were TO DIE FOR!! Great service and lasagna was absolutely amazing!

Been meaning to come here for years, but basically working second shift did not mesh with their hours. Now I can finally enjoy actually doing things in the evening. Met Mike, Anna, and a couple other Yelpers here. We had a reservation, which is a very good idea. Even on a Tuesday night there was a wait, and the place is tiny so the waiting area is pretty much in the dining room. As is the kitchen, right around the corner. But once seated it didn't feel cramped, and the noise level was decent, with easy conversation. There is a small outdoor area but it was rainy. Very pleasant environment, somewhat old-school Italian-American. As was the food: perfectly-done versions of lasagna, Alfredo, Parmigiana, etc. I got the lasagna, a big portion with very good sauce, perfect pasta, a load of excellent meat, and good cheese. Very enjoyable. Took home some gnocchi for Sweetie; she liked it but wasn't completely impressed. Loved the sauce, liked the gnocchi. Baby K got her new favorite, Alfredo, also on her new favorite, rigatoni. I tasted it and it was very good. She loved it. The kid's portion was more than enough for an 8-year-old, and really enough for an adult. Plus, hers was brought out first, a nice touch for parents. And it was not served hot- just right for a kid. Our meals were a bit warmer, again just right, and the one I got to go came out piping hot. They are on top of many little details here. There was plenty of garlic bread for the table, also good. I tasted Mike's artichoke-spinach dip: great dip with perfect dipping wedges. Stuffed, we passed on desserts, but they sounded good. Service was superb. There when needed, but not pushy, really on top of things for a kid, which I didn't expect from a fairly adult-oriented place. And on top of things in general. The owner checked in on us, and talked to Baby K about what she liked. Prices were better than I expected, well worth it for the quantity and quality. We will definitely be back.

This was our first visit to this restaurant. The website and the reviews were accurate. The place is small and busy. Every seat was taken. The room looked like a classic Italian restaurant with checkered table clothes. The service was excellent and the portions are huge. We were visited at the table by the owner to introduce himself. The only disappointment was that they ran out of lasagna by 7:30. I had the onion soup. It was thick and filled with onions and it seemed to have mushrooms. Very tasty and filling. Imagine a bowl of soup these days for $6.00. The other items on the menu were very reasonably priced as well. The veal Marsala was good as well. A little different-the sauce was a little thinner and sweeter than I've had previously My wife's eggplant parm was tasty as well. Also a large portion. In summary, a good place to have dinner. Be sure to get a reservation well in advance.

Always very good food & service! Hard to get in without an advanced reservation but that is a very good sign. And now you can stop by the bakery next door after dinner for a take home treat!

I've been here before and had a lovely experience. This visit wasn't quite as great, but the food is always top notch. I made a reservation for 7:30 to celebrate my husband's birthday. We were seated quickly and our waitress quickly brought out some waters. I did feel like they rushed us a bit, you could tell they wanted to close for the night. Each course came out before we had finished the previous. However, they have a nice and inexpensive wine selection! We had a bottle of wine and started with the spinach and artichoke dip which is probably the best I've ever had. The hot pita they serve it with was awesome too. We both got a salad as well and they were great. I wanted to lasagna for my main course but they ran out, which was a bummer. I ended up getting the spaghetti and meatballs and it was awesome. My husband got the gnocchi and it was tasty too. We finished the night with a cannoli and the carrot cake, both of which were delicious. This little spot is so cute, very mom and pop style Italian restaurant. Definitely a must try!

I'd been wanting to go here for a while, but reservations were very hard to come by (which made me even more interested in checking out this very popular spot!). Finally snagged 8 pm Friday night seats. The place is very small and intimate -- not at all fancy (pretty brightly lit, casually decorated) but it does feel homey. We were seated at a small table, and our server was friendly. We ordered the veal Marsala (served with risotto and green beans) and fettuccini Alfredo with shrimp; we also shared the Caesar salad. Everything was well made and flavorful (though I found the green beans a little bland and boring-- they were just a side, though). We also were served complimentary garlic bread, which we appreciated, and we ordered the tiramisu (which honestly was as impressive as I thought it would be, given the restaurant's bakery business -- the coffee flavor didn't come through as much as I'd expect and the ladyfinger portion seemed surprisingly dry). Prices were all quite reasonable, and portion sizes were large, so sharing was perfect (I felt full pretty quickly, especially after the bread). We also ordered a bottle of wine, and didn't feel rushed -- it was a very comfortable and comforting night overall. I'd like to come back with more people and try some of the other entrees and a different dessert (if I can get a table!).

WOW! I don't ever write yelp reviews but my friend and I stopped here and happen to catch it when a table outside was available. I still think about it to this day! Best Italian ever

I loved this little Italian restaurant! Very quaint with a warm friendly atmosphere. The staff was very kind and the food was delicious (I especially loved the Pasta Fritto) I will definitely be returning!

This is simply one of the most wholesome and loveliest places. So small and intimate, and the owner comes around just to make sure everything is good. The caesar salad was great, it didn't even last long enough for pictures. If you love anchovies like me, definitely get them added! Pasta Fritto was good, but heavy. I barely touched dinner after that! The sampler is great, I was shocked that my favorite was the eggplant parmesan because usually I wouldn't go for it. Bread pudding was so decadent. Book in advance and prepare for a wonderful evening!

I felt a very high level of racism.. The male server had 2 is opportunities to greet me and my husband he never did He spoke to everyone around us at the entrance door but not us. At the end of dinner he checked on the table right next to us but never spoke to us or even looked our way.. One bright spot was our server she was amazing her name is Rihanna.

The food was delicious. I had the shrimp scampi special and husband had rigatoni with a meat sauce and it was baked! Drinks were reasonably priced. I recommend trying the house made limoncello. It was very good! The only thing we didn't like was our waitress kept rushing us. Didn't give us much time to review the order, wanted to take our food order with drinks. We should have said no but frankly I was taken aback by her. Very casual and noisy atmosphere so be aware. I will go back but will avoid that waitress!

One of the best family owned restaurants I've been to. It's super small so reservations are encouraged. You definitely feel at home. The food was absolutely amazing. I had the spaghetti and the meatballs were huge!! My friend ordered a seafood pasta and it was delicious. Also, the basil dressing they use for salad dressing is top tier. They also own a bakery next door. We got tiramisu and a hummingbird cake which was phenomenal. Will definitely be back when we're in the area. I didn't get many pictures.

This restaurant is so over hyped it's ridiculous. Garlic bread average at best. House salad was ok. Actually it was the best part of the meal. Chicken parmigiana and spaghetti a complete disaster. Chicken cutlet was way too thick and greasy. Spaghetti was definitely not Al Dente and the sauce tasted like chef boardee.

My husband has been wanting to try this little Italian place in Gahanna and we finally made it there this weekend. He got the fettuccine alfredo and I tried the daily seafood special, which was seafood linguine with spinach, mushroom, and roasted bell peppers in rosa cream sauce. And of course we had to try the tiramisu. It was a great meal and we'd go back. It's a small place, so I recommend making reservations.

Not our first time here and definitely not our last This place has the best food .. Small, charming and oh so yummy Easy to book a reservation .a must ... booking thru open table .. a Be warned you may have to book around two weeks out ..There are times when last minute reservations also open up recheck open table So far we are hooked on Limoncello... any salad ..best soups wedding and onion cups and bowls .. chicken parm... pasta alfredo add some chicken you will not regret .. Any of the chose your own pasta and sauce .. Daily dessert .. but take my word get the bread pudding .. What are you waiting book now

High quality, authentic food. Small dining area. You might need to call for a reservation. I went early (5pm-ish) so it wasn't an issue for me.

This exceeded my expectations in every way. The food here could easily hold its own with any Italian restaurant in Boston or NY. The owner Steve was going around greeting everyone and checking on the food. You can tell there is a lot of care and love put into the cooking. They serve complimentary garlic bread and it is old school with lots of butter. The chicken marsala had the most flavorful sauce (slightly sweet) and lots of mushrooms. Loved the cheesy risotto it was served with. The salad dressing is homemade and it is incredible. Marinara sauce is some of the best I have ever tried. Portions are big and prices are reasonable. Cannot wait to come back and try dessert. If I lived closer, I would be a regular for sure. Definitely make a reservation. It is very small inside and fills up fast.

100% positive on food, service, and ambiance. Multiple visits over the years, and never a flutter of disappointment. Let me reiterate my previous reviews. Taste the layers of flavor and texture in each bite. Service is as if each day they strive to do better than the last. Clean petite dining rooms with light music, that doesn't flood your table conversation. Lighting bright enough to read your menu and see the beauty of each plate. *Our best visits have been a party of 4 with 2 apps, 3 entrees with salad or soup, 2 desserts, and a couple wines. Tasting 7-8 wonderful items and still having leftovers is an ideal experience. The lasagna and meatballs are top of my 614 list. *Make a reservation and go for the experience. Carryout and catering is available. Private strip center parking lot with a seasonal outdoor patio that overlooks it.

Delightful little place in Gahanna. Came in for dinner on a Tuesday night, around 5:30. Had a reservation for 6:00, but was immediately seated. Service was fast and food was delicious. Waitress brought a basket of garlic bread to the table, which was delicious, though unexpected. Had the chicken parm which was OUTSTANDING. Not a dollop of red sauce, but a half cup on top of the pasta, very well done. Chicken was delicious, too. Daughter had the baked penne in a meat sauce which was also outstanding. Finished with a cannoli and bread pudding. Both were outstanding. This place is really small, less than a dozen tables. Felt like we were eating just outside the kitchen, because, we were. Owner makes a habit of talking to everyone, most of which I think he knows. Very happy we found the place and will come back again in a heartbeat.

This is a complicated restaurant to deal with. Online orders are limited to practically none. My favorite dish was offered online, and now it's taken off. When calling the restaurant, the blunt response was "sorry, we are not taken online order". So the question is how do I get some food? They are booked consistently unless you book way in advance. I have not been able to sit down inside this restaurant for a meal, and they are only 15 minutes from my house. We had to go inside the restaurant, place the order, sit and wait, and that took several questions to get an answer. Mr. Giuseppe, you need to find a way for this dilemma. So Steve replied to this review with a link for carry out, still no chicken marsala on the carry out order and the carry out option is turned off 95% of the time from this restaurant. I give up!

The chicken Alfredo is absolutely puts Olive Garden to shame. The chicken was perfect and not rubbery and the sauce and noodles were amazing as well!

This is a small, quaint restaurant. The food is delicious. I especially loved the pasta fritto! The staff and service could not have been any friendlier. This will be my go-to Italian restaurant.

If you're wondering if you should try Lola & Guiseppe's, the answer is yes, you should. I had heard about this little gem for quite a while from some colleagues and finally was able to give it a try. Importantly, it is reservation only. It is located in a strip-mall type area in Gahanna with parking right out front. The inside is way smaller than I was expecting, but it adds to a quaint, European feel. There are roughly ~10 tables total, about half of which are for two people. The service was very prompt. We started off with cups of onion soup and wedding soup. They were both good, but we preferred the onion soup. The marsala wine gives it a nice after kick! They also brought out complimentary garlic which was phenomenal. For entrees, I tried the chicken parmesan. It normally comes with spaghetti and marinara on the side, but I switched it to rosa cream sauce (a mix between marinara and alfredo). It also came with a hearty side of green beans. My SO got the meat lasagna with alfredo sauce on top. The chicken parmesan was delicious and had a very nice crispiness. I thoroughly enjoyed the rosa cream spaghetti and cooked green beans. I would get this dish again in a heartbeat. For dessert, I tried the carrot cake and my SO got a cannoli. The carrot cake was huge and I took most of it home. Overall, we were very happy with Lola & Guiseppe's and would definitely come back! For the quality of the food, the prices are extremely reasonable.

Great food and friendly service. Not crazy about the faux wall divider being pushed towards our table every time the other party moved their chair, lol. But sauces and salads were all fresh and on point. Service was very good as well. Disappointing to find pieces of a scrub brush in my meal but they were very attentive about that issue and handled it professionally. Overall we'd go back for the fresh and delicious food, and good service Also, would love to see them expand their space.

This cozy trattoria seats only about 30. You're met with friendly staff and familial energy upon stepping in. While the tables and booths are close together, there are choiceful partitions to make your experience more intimate. The restaurant is decorated with European art, family photos and hand-painted Italian landscapes. You immediately notice the red and white tablecloths, akin to the ones you might see at a busy strip of restaurants in Rome. I had heard all about the meatballs so I knew that was a must order. I was set on ordering the spaghetti and meatballs but then saw the Giuseppe's sampler which would include that, eggplant parmesan, AND meatball lasagna. As someone who likes to try a little of everything, I could not pass up the sampler. Zach and I ordered that to share and coupled it with shrimp and lobster ravioli which is topped with a creamy sauce and more shrimp. While we enjoyed everything, I have to say the meatball lasagna was my favorite to my surprise! Of the three dishes in the sampler, I thought that was the one I would like third best but it came in first. We bookended our pastas with salads, which all come with house-made sauces, and the tiramisu. I wouldn't skip either of these courses, especially the tiramisu. The consistency was perfect, spongy but not too much. Rich in flavor but not overly sweet. Overall the food and value are both top notch (you'll probably have leftovers), and I quite enjoyed the ambiance. As a bonus, several of their wine pours were under $10. When you go, you'll want to book a reservation ahead of time given the restaurant size.

Tiny dining room, but awesome Italian food and great service. You'll need a reservation. If you can't get one, consider them for takeout! Really good food!

Can't say enough positive about this place. You will need a reservation just due to size of restaurant and how popular it is, but it's worth it. We went for our anniversary, the food was great. I got the lasagna and my wife got the baked ziti. We got tiramisu for dessert. The service was fantastic, our reservation was for 8 and they close at 9, but never once did I feel rushed or that the late reservation was a burden on the staff. The owner was checking how our food was and chatting with tables. We have been in Columbus for a long time and just now tried this place for the first time, can't believe we waited this long.

I had been wanting to try this place for a while and so excited I finally made it! The inside is so cute, they have red and white table cloths and lots of nods to Italy. The staff is also so kind and I was sat right away. For the food we ordered a bottle of red wine for the table, pasta fritto, bruschetta, and insalata caprese. The pasta fritto seemed a little strange to me but it was AMAZING. The caprese was also so flavorful and fresh. For my meal I ordered the chicken Marsala. The vegetable it came with that day was green beans they also were so delicious and fresh. The portion size of the chicken was HUGE and I was able to bring almost half of it home! It was some of the best Marsala I have ever had. For dessert we split tiramisu and carrot cake. I cant decide which was better they were both so amazing. The carrot cake was so flavorful and the tiramisu was fluffy and the best I've ever had. Can't say enough good things about the food! When the bill came I was shocked by how inexpensive it was. We ordered so much food, the portions were so large, and the pricing was so good! I will 100% be back.

My husband loves Italian food and he kept talking about this restaurant, so I had to try it! It was very nice! I really like their Pasta Fritto, the crispy and everything was so good. My husband got Chicken Marsala and he said it was the best one so far! And you can't miss their Garlic Bread, it's the beeest!!!! I want to keep eating their garlic bread all night :D The restaurant was very cute, the owner was very nice, he came and said hi us. If you plan to go, you should book the table in advance!

First, make a reservation. Second, get the bruschetta. Everything was wonderful and tasted spot on. I had feels like I was sitting in my grandma's house eating a Sunday supper. It was that good. Popular small place and has a bakery a few doors down. Don't skip dessert.
