Maggiano's Little Italy

We hosted my daughter’s graduation luncheon here and the food was absolutely delicious! The staff were amazing and the atmosphere was top tier. All the food that was left over was packaged for us to take home and our guests are still talking about the experience. We haven’t lived in Charlotte for long, but know that this will be a return restaurant for my family and myself.

UPDATED 2/19: Maggiano’s General Manager as well as Brink Guest Relations have reached out to resolve this issue. General Manager have issued a refund to us for the 12 adults that did not show up and very much appreciate this gesture. Overall still receiving great customer service from this restaurant. Celebrated my son’s first birthday last 2/8. We got the Signature Family Style Lunch. I have 12 adults and 4 kids that did not show up that I still paid for on the day of event because I didn’t realize how many were not able to come. I feel like the food served on each tables weren’t enough for the headcount I gave considering lots of people did not show up. Pictures I got after event shows that they may have only counted heads per table. Been wanting to get clarification from Maggiano’s management. I have Manager Brice called me once that I was not able to answer. Been sending emails and calls but couldn’t get a hold of Management to resolve this issue. I feel like management is not trying their hardest to resolve this. I also have other complaints that I detailed on email I sent but haven’t heard back from management yet. Example, I asked for a to go box for me and photographer friend that was included on the count because we were not able to eat as much on the day. Been told they will check kitchen and that we should split the food they packed. I also have a friend with 3 kids that were all counted on pizza that came in late to the party. She asked server for pizza but was told they can only give her 1. We paid for all 3 kids. I gave 2 stars to get attention but honestly the food and service on the day was good. I just really did not feel it was enough for what we paid for. Attaching photos of food that they served on tables to feed 9-10 people.

This review is from my visit with my cousins who I have not seen in 30 years. We are Italian American and thoroughly enjoyed this restaurant. The atmosphere, food and music were excellent. The manager and waiter were very friendly. They were so sweet and hands on. I highly recommend a special evening out here for adults. The Alla Vodka one of the best I ever had!! My cousin had linguine with white clam sauce, she raved over the dish. I had one drink which was swanky and delicious. All around a winner! 🇺🇲🇮🇹

We had a lovely graduation celebration here. The best dishes were the salad... Some of the food came out at luke warm temperature. Extensive time between courses for service made the meal less enjoyable. We made a carry out request at our table for the leftover crab cakes that were purchased and we were told "there are no left over crab cakes." This was not true, they took them away from the table. We did receive carry out containers for the left over steak and pasta.

Great Italian place with a nice atmosphere! Our server visas very friendly and took great care of us. The food was delicious as well! I got the Rigatoni D and my wife got Fettuccine Alfredo.

This was our first visit to this establishment. We loved the family photos throughout the restaurant, as they reminded us of our visit to different parts of Italy. 🇮🇹 We ordered the Wagu meatballs as an appetizer and the Lobster Carbonara which was accompanied by fresh warm bread and dipping oil. The food was delicious. Our server, Oscar was delightful and well versed on items on the menu. We highly recommend this restaurant.

We visited this location to celebrate my wife's birthday a few days ago. We were looking forward to ordering the Marcos Meal for 2 which is non-existent. The menu options, including the family meal, changed. Why? The menu options were great, the restaurant was packed, and having the 2 meal option was slightly more budget friendly which is not the case anymore. It appears the change of leadership at the corporate level changed becuase of a famous chef. Who cares? Make the portion sizes smaller, promote "better" meatballs, and make upgrades for a restaurant that already looks great. This is the typical corporate mindset when a new sheriff starts, and makes unnecessary changes, and it makes it a lot worse to increase thwir profits. My wife really wanted a salad and the chicken piccata, and I ordered the lasagna. The salad tasted the same, but the chicken piccata was missing the usual taste. I was appalled the portion size of the lasagna. There's a place in Concord that makes much better lasagna for a lot less, and the postion size is appropriate. We didn't order any beverages and thankfully we didn't when we got the bill which was over $60 with taxes. Our plan was to return with family, but with the family feast changes made, we'll go elsewhere. We won't return any time soon. 👎

My server Danny was phenomenonal he was very knowledgeable and professional. I ordered salmon with shrimp magnificent and fresh. The atmosphere is electric. Thank you for making my birthday special before traveling.
