Maggiano's Little Italy

Ambiance: Nice-casual Italian eatery in The Galleria area with a large menu and ample seating options. Great spot for a date night, family lunch, or solo dinner at the bar. Perfect for celebrating any occasion given their expansive menu. Highly recommend their crab cakes and house salad! Great portion size for the price. Nicely decorated and good service. Maggiano's is one of the better chain Italian restaurants IMO. Decent wine list and drink options. Parking onsite. Close to many other shops/restaurants.

This family-style meal was a truly enjoyable experience, marked by an impressive array of delectable dishes. As a party of 13 celebrating a friend's birthday, we found the portions to be generous, allowing each guest to indulge in two servings of every dish. Our meal commenced with the chef's signature Caesar salad, followed by an impressive selection of appetizers, including the exceptional Wagyu beef meatballs, which were a personal highlight. Initially assuming this to be the entirety of the meal, we were delighted to discover that the main course would exceed our expectations. Every dish was expertly seasoned, showcasing the chef's skill, from the tender beef tenderloin medallions to the succulent shrimp scampi, which proved to be my favorite. The lasagna, rich and creamy with a perfect balance of ricotta cheese, and the chicken parmesan, cooked to perfection and served with a tangy sauce, were equally impressive. The dessert course, for which we ordered the entire selection, concluded the meal on a high note, with the cheesecake being my top recommendation. I would highly recommend this restaurant to those with robust appetites, as every aspect of the meal was outstanding from start to finish. Our waiter's exceptional service also deserves recognition, as his expert guidance and attentive nature significantly enhanced our dining experience.

Large Upscale Italian Restaurant with a 1940's Theme. Table and booth seating with table cloths and cloth napkins. Long Wood Bar at entrance with Tv screens to watch sports. Gourmet menu starts with sour dough bread and olive oil. Frank Sinatra recordings in the back ground throughout our dinner. I like Frank, but they should mix it up with Dean Martin, Ella, Rosemary Clooney and other 40's singers and bands.

Great Mother's Day experience! It's $48 per person for five appetizers, four main courses, and three desserts. Had lots of fun with the kids and the food was delightful. My kids loved the wagyu stuffed shells, and I enjoyed the Branzino crab. Our overall favorite was the fried zucchini. Our waiter Dupree was FANTASTIC!! Super friendly and accommodating. He catered to our every need and definitely changed this restaurant visit from a "good" to an "amazing" experience.

Love coming here for the Vodka Rigatoni Pasta with extra spice and it is sooo delicious especially since the food is always served hot!!🍝 My family went for my graduation dinner (GO BEARKATS 🐾)and everyone got their food on time and served hot!There were no complaints at all and our waiter was attentive and funny & ran jokes with us (Casey💕)I would most definitely go again and again due to the service-atmosphere-& great food!!

The staff is really good, we are vegetarian so the server called the chef and he spoke to us personally and tried to make some veggie pasta. All I wish they come up with more vegetarian/vegan dishes and desserts.

OMG—Maggiano’s Little Italy is a Must-Try! We came here for Mother’s Day dinner, and let me just say, bon appétit from start to finish! The pre fixe menu was such a great deal and gave us the chance to try a variety of dishes, all of which were absolutely delicious. Our server, Chase, was amazing—super kind, attentive, and made the experience even better. The quality, the portions, and the flavors? Unmatched. This place is definitely a one of Houston staples and the value you get is unbeatable. My husband and I will definitely be back. Hats off to this entire establishment!

The food and service was excellent. Timing and pace were as well. Our server was personable, pleasant and professional. Lastly, I left my credit card and they called me before I walked 30 yards to come back and retrieve it. If I lived in Houston, Id definitely be coming back!

Good good. Great vibe.Went here for the first time with wife and kids.loved everything about it. Service was great

Everything was so wonderful. The atmosphere, the excellent service and the pasta dishes were to die for. We also couldn't resist the Italian donuts to go (not pictured) .

Our friends brought my daughter and I to this restaurant to celebrate her graduation from high school. The place is nicely decorated and cozy. I ordered the vongole which surprisingly did not look appetizing when served. It looked like they were left over and the pasta was over cooked and soggy. Disappointed. But the mushrooms ravioli that my daughter ordered was delicious! I ended up eating most of hers! We have to request for bread and the server did not give us any dips and I have to get it myself.

OK, let me start with this first. My family and I have been going there for more than two decades. The place was very special to us, and it wasn't because of the specials they ran (though they did run some awesome specials). Now they are under new management, and it does not feel the same, not to mention they made a bunch of changes. To me the most glaring is they do not have angel hair pasta anymore. They used to have the best chicken piccata in town, now it's just chicken with vaguely piccata flavored oily spaghetti noodles. I know this is a small thing, but it goes to the many changes that I'm not a fan of. Sorry, chicken piccata has Angel hair pasta, not lemony oily flavored spaghetti pasta. Anyways, it's still a "good restaurant", it just doesn't reach above three out of five stars for me ........anymore. Also bear in mind we live in Houston, which is the land of restaurants. Most likely the next time we go out for Italian, we will be looking for another establishment.

Everything was delicious: G+T, Tiramisu Martini, Veal Parmesan, Lobster Carbonara. The presentation of the veal was fire. The bacon in the carbonara is smokey, and they load you up on lobster.

Huge family friend restaurant that's perfect for nice celebrations or just a regular night. I'm a big fan of the family style options, but all of the food here is really good. Also, I've never had a bad experience with service.

Galantine Luncheon for large group at Maggiano's Little Italy at Galleria Uptown was a hit! Hosted by financial and architectural groups Calamari Fritte was one of the appetizers we liked best, but all were outstanding. Roasted salmon on a bed of tender spinach Was superb along with rigatoni and chicken Marsala! We tried everything. The sumptuous chocolate cake and tiramisu put the finishing touches on a delicious and informative luncheon- The waiters were carefully orchestrated and efficient in both serving and getting dishes on and off the table speedily and effortlessly! We never waited to be served or for dishes to be cleared, since all worked beautifully and in harmony!! Amazing . Well done, Maggiano's Little Italy and JLK Financial and RD Archtecture! Your Galantine luncheon for clients was a huge success from beginning to end! !! Thank you!

Just ate a family meal and wow this place sucks, the pastas came out in less than 5 minutes after ordering come to find out their frozen and just heated up and added meat. chicken no chicken or any adjustments. The place charges an average of $25 minimum for a pasta that's frozen and heated up. Service was fine but this is strictly about the food and specifically they're sucky flavorless pastas

Over the past several years I have become a bigger fan of this chain. I was disappointed that they no longer have meat sauce or angel hair pasta, but at least the other items I get here are consistently tasty. I ordered the Shrimp Fry Diavolo with grilled chicken added the other night. It was very well-made, soft in every bite, moist in every way and very delicious. The pasta was great. The tomato cream was really balanced in prep with a good savoriness to it. The shrimp n grilled chicken were all tender and good too. Great, friendly service as well. I also had the Pasta Bolognese awhile back n it was also very delicious, meaty, moist and contained good noodles. That's normally hard to pull off in a more American Italian restaurant like this, but I certainly enjoyed it. The dine-in service on that visit was very attentive and great.

We hosted our Christmas office staff party here of around 150 people. We have had many events here in the past. We are never disappointed with the food and excellent service at Maggianos! Such a beautiful restaurant and in a gorgeous location! As always, the family style entrees are perfect for the large tables. And the desserts were over the top this year! Butter cake with strawberries (the table went crazy) and how can you go wrong with a rich chocolate cake? (Picture below) Keep on keeping on Maggianos! We love you!

We sat in the bar area which is first come first serve and it was a good vibe. Could still watch college football and food came out super quick. Overall service was also great! We shared the crab cake appetizer which came with two large cakes - super tasty, that sauce was really good with it as well. Moist inside and crispy inside. The spaghetti with meat sauce was pretty affordable ($19?) and they split up for us on two plates and was a great dish to split for the size. Flavors were pretty basic on this dish though.

Maggiano's did not impress me very much. It was okay, but I was definitely expecting more. There was a lot going on here lol some people were dressed super fancy with long gowns, and others were in shorts and and baseball caps. So if you're thinking of a nice place to get dinner and dress up, this is probably not the place. Let me start by saying the hosts were sweet and our waiter was nice too. My favorite thing of theirs was the drinks. The mojito was so refreshing & the frozen peach Bellini tasted like a peach smoothie, both very good. My chicken Alfredo although did not impress me :( I was expecting more flavor and a nice grilled chicken on top of the fettuccine pasta. But I instead got little bits of chicken on some overcooked, hard fettuccine. The grilled chicken plate was better, the asparagus was wonderful and their fries were pretty good too.But for an Italian place I did want more from the pasta.

My family and I used to love this restaurant, and over time as they've increased the prices we were okay with it because the quality stayed the same. Low and behold, they just recently raised the prices again but lowered the quality too. No more olive oil, cheese, or balsamic at the table. No more large portions - now they're smaller and in different plates. No more meat sauce - now everything that used to be part of the meal is an extra charge. To say we were disappointed is a huge understatement. A hefty bill for worse food and service (waitress had a huge attitude). We will not be coming here anymore.

Had a great time at Maggianos for a birthday dinner. The service was really great and the host was very attentive. The food was good nothing to amazing but the atmosphere was very cozy which I loved and made up for the price. There was also plenty of parking when we went which is great.

So, my family had a Christmas get together dinner on a rainy, humid night at this location in the Galleria area. There were so many people with big parties so getting the food was a struggle at times. Our server sporadically appeared but it was obvious that they had more customers than they can handle with their wait staff. Food wise, it was good, not great. Luckily, their complimentary bread was hot and delicious so we ate a lot of it. For a party of 12, it was great to share dinner with the family. We were allowed to visit and catch up but after almost 3 hours of sitting around, we were ready to leave. I understand the issues that the restaurant has to deal with this close to Christmas. However, it is a disservice to us paying customers when we get frustrated with the service. Overall, this a good place to come and dine but probably not during the holidays. Nevertheless, a good time was had by the family as we were able to get together.

We went to Maggiano's for a late night dinner and wow!!!! It was amazing! We had the stuffed mushrooms and I had the fettuccine Alfredo with Parmesan crusted chicken and my husband had a lobster and shrimp pasta. Food and drinks were delicious, and the environment and service was great!

Our company ordered Maggiano's for lunch today and everyone enjoyed. The menu included chicken parm, ravioli, pasta, salad & desert. Our food was fresh and flavorful. My favorite was the chicken parm, ravioli & CHEESECAKE. I did not care for the crème brûlée

I ordered to go, because I was in a rush. My lunch break is limited. I was torn between the ravioli special or chicken parm. For $26 I got the parm. Everything was fresh & the portion were good however it hardly had ANY cheese. I didn't realize how much of a difference the mozzarella makes, but it did not taste good enough to finish without it. I should've gotten the ravioli

I've been here a few times in the past (we're talking over a decade ago) but not recently. We finally did it! Background: we're allium-free vegetarians. We can only go to a handful of restaurants in town and eat freely - and they're all of the Chinese-Vietnamese and Indian variety. Needless to say, though good, it does get boring. I looked into Maggiano's again for my VEGAN sister's birthday. However, due to inclement weather and the fact that my sister didn't want to pay for food that she can make at home, we cancelled. They can do a simple pasta with tomato sauce and veggies for her, but they don't have vegan cheese. Dessert? They suggested fruit. So... if you're vegan, you can eat, but your options are severely limited here. When I inquired in person about the possibility of celebrating there, Chef Charles made it seem promising if you're not vegan, so I kept them in mind. My extended family are in town and I decided to bring them here. We were a party of 9, including 3 kids, but one of them is a huge eater. We all share the same fairly restrictive diet. Made reservations online and even called in to confirm our diet wouldn't be a huge problem. The person at the front said it was fine to just walk in and tell the server our restrictions when we were seated. In reality? It's not as simple. Chef Pedro was the chef this time around and he said all the sauces were allium-free; all the alliums were added in during the cooking process. Then the regional manager, Andy, stepped in. He said ALL their sauces contain garlic (probably powdered) but they can best accommodate with advance notice (ex: it takes 1.5 hours to make Alfredo sauce from scratch). As it was, they made a batch of red sauce (and Mac and cheese sauce) just for us from scratch and we got the zucchini fritters, 2 spaghetti with marinara and veggies, and 2 eggplant Parmesan... plus kid pasta and Mac and cheese. One of which was for a toddler with multiple food allergies. No allergy symptoms from him and we didn't detect funny smells - win! It wasn't bad at all with how we essentially just popped up. I was happy we weren't stuck with salad or flatbread. Because of our diet, we mostly spoke with Andy but our waitress was really nice And checked up on our table multiple times but without being overbearing. Everyone enjoyed it and the food loving kid had a bowl of the pasta all to himself - and the portions are shareable. I was in awe. I remember they used to give you an extra, frozen portion to take home with the purchase of a pasta, but that's apparently a thing of the past. Even so, these are big portions so the price isn't unreasonable. Does add up fast though! Maggiano's is a chain bordering on fancy. This location is in the Galleria area and has a shared parking lot. However, I saw people in all sorts of attire. The place was clean and it was a little slow going to get to our table, but once seated, things went fairly smoothly after the manager and chef made it to our table. The place is loud though. On a Monday night, there were many occupied tables so they're doing well. It is dimly lit for that intimate atmosphere and doesn't skimp on the AC, so bring a light jacket if you get cold easily. Overall, I'm glad I can add this place back to the list. I was impressed at how much they put into getting us substantial options with minimal warning. Definitely recommend Maggiano's for those who find it difficult to find a place to eat out at. You'll need to go in and talk to a chef ahead of time to get the best experience, but I don't mind. It's nice to not cook all the time. Perfect for special occasions and dates. And premeditated meals out of the house. Thank you!! Note: they offer gluten free pasta but it only comes in penne shape. Oh, they also have delicious, chocolate covered butter mints you can grab on the way out. Yum!

The food here was just nasty, and to make it worse, one of the server's hair was in the food. My actual waiter was nice, though. Definitely not a great experience overall.

It's been a while at Maggiano's but today dined here for business luncheon. The lunch menu did not disappoint. Everything we ordered was delicious! The waiter Ashley was excellent and very attentive. She checked on us every 5 to 10 minutes to check our orders and any concerns. I was truly impressed as I saw some newer items I haven't tried. We ordered multiple appetizers and main entrees. I ordered the Grilled Salmon Caesar salad and it was delicious. It's an old favorite I've dined at for years but a goodie! Must try if you're in the Galleria area.

I truly enjoy coming here for just a quick dinner, its casual, laid back, and I have my go to food choices which makes my life easier.

Our company holiday party was held here last night. We had a private room with a terrace. All the food was amazing from the crab cakes, spinach dip and calamari that were served buffet style. One of the best Caesar salads I've ever had. The entrees were served to each table family style. Desserts in large portions cut up to share. Everyone was truly happy with our selections and the premium open be option. Keshon was our gracious bar tender. Mario the event manager was also a great help. Would use again in the future

My recent experience - I had organized my birthday party at Maggiano's to which I had invited 35 friends. Maggiano's called to tell me the event could not go ahead an hour before the event. The excuse being due to road closures because of the houston marathon ... something they would have known a week before . You can imagine the distress this caused me . I had to call all of my friends to inform them the lunch party would not take place, despite most of them being well on their way. Many had bought flowers, cakes, helium ballons etc already. Mostly all perishable. As a gesture maggianos only send 100$ gift card. If I had cancelled my event an hour before they would have charged me the full amount Most disappointing

I'm not sure why it's only a 3.7 star rating some people are just hard to please. The service was excellent, cleanliness is great, food, beverages and desserts are amazing, and the overall experience was excellent! Kid friendly and super attentive. Great presentation on the food didn't have a chance to take pictures just wanted to enjoy our family meal. Definitely have no complaints!

This is one of my favorite Italian restaurants to go to. It seems they always close down the authentic places so it's always hard for me to find someone that makes Alfredo the way I like it! I've been here quite a few times throughout the year and recently was here for my brothers engagement celebration. I tried the crabcakes for the first time they come in a cream sauce and they were so good even the arugula salad that comes on the side was a great touch. As usual I got my shrimp Alfredo's always creamy and plenty of sauce like I like it. The lasagna is my second favorite, but it's huge! You will definitely be taking it home to go my favorite drink to get here is the pomegranate martini which they always bring in the shaker and leave you with the extra. That's my favorite part! You can never go wrong with anything here. I highly recommend this place. I don't know how they don't have a higher rating. They also allow large parties without any additional fees, etc., like some restaurants.

I had a delicious shrimp scampi here and have been craving it since. Many times restraints make a picatta sauce and just add garlic. That's not scampi.

We went and it was very busy, but our waiter did an amazing job keeping track of all the tables despite of it all. Can't complain, the food was great Italian food. Like I said, it was packed but still clean and decorated in the Christmas spirit!

Huge Portions! Time to pack some leftovers! We were here with a big group (30) and we still had food leftover. Food: Started with the bread and white Sangria (both were great). I recommend you get the pitcher, it's worth the price difference. Cesar salad and fall salad with bacon. Both were well dressed and huge portions. I would say they feed 4 people each. Zucchini are very long and lightly breaded. Amazing flavor. (By this time we were already full) Chicken Alfredo and salmon paired well together. The lasagna feeds 6 comfortably. Dessert platter: a little for everyone. I tried the ice cream and apple time. Just the perfect little bite. Service: for such a large group, staff got the food our quick and stayed attentive to the whole party. Location: Very clean bathrooms and the restaurant feels like an old school family spot, even though it's a chain.

We have been going to Maggiano's a very long time. When we go with family we typically get the family style selections. Its our favorite, and the selections are great. I just recently went back, my family and I had our minds and stomachs set on getting our usual. To our disaapointment, the family style menu had totally changed, and not for the better. First, it was more expensive per person, which I wouldnt have minded bc its typically alot of food, but the menu is smaller, the portions are smaller, and there are no customizations. The first selection is a cheese plate with salami and olives, which we don't eat. We wondered why the menu has changed so much, and we read that the resturants hired a Michelin Star chef and they wanted to elevate their dining experience. However, people go to Maggiano's for a specific experience, they bring their family's to enjoy a family style meal. The day we went, we had 4 people in our group. The cheese plate was lacking, even though we didn't eat it. I asked if they could just keep it bc we weren't going to eat it and we were told they need to bring it out bc its apart of the meal. We had chicken parm, it was 2 pieces of chicken cut into 4 pieces. The pastas were bowls that 2 people can split not 4. And for the higher price, I thought the smaller portions were a joke. The food was good as we already knew it was going to be, but we will not be going back to Maggiano's. The new family style menu is what we would go for, and to us, it's not worth it anymore, not only bc of the smaller portions and higher price, but also bc our favorites are no longer apart of the family style menu. Also, we have noticed that the service at both locations, Galleria and Memorial is lacking as well. Servers seem annoyed at times and several times we were waiting for water, for our orders to be taken, and having our checks returned or to be picked up.

Our family of 7 New Year's dinner experience this evening. The good: 1. Casey, our server, was friendly. 2. Except for the filet mignon, the other food items and the 2 Martini's my family ordered were delicious. The bad: 1. We arrived promptly for our new year's dinner reservation at 5pm. The restaurant was generally empty. After ordering, we waited over 40 minutes for the food to arrive (excessive) and it came only after we inquired. 2. There was no Italian seasoning to go with the bread. The server said they had run out of it. 3. I requested to have the filet mignon prepared medium, but it came out well-done. Our server offered to have the kitchen prepare me another filet, but after the long initial wait, I was unwilling to wait again (and unwilling to ask my family to wait again) while the kitchen prepared another filet. 3. The server appropriately apologized for the kitchen's delay, and the overcooked filet, but offered nothing more. I never requested, and the server never offered any price adjustment and no complementary dessert (as one might have expected). All items were charged at the full menu price.

Attended a work event here and had a fabulous lunch. The event provided a family style lunch and the starters and desserts won me over. The calamari fritte and zucchini fritte with lemon aeoli soo crisp and good! The chopped salad was very yummy too. The mains were eh, the chicken parm was ok, rigatoni was tasty as was the cheese ravioli but I wasn't too impressed. The real winner was the apple crostada with vanilla bean ice cream and caramel sauce. It was warm and comforting but elegant at the same time.

Food is good, however the staff is very rude. We made reservations for my sister's birthday and when we told them that out of those 9 we can replace with 1 high chairs. The young girl and guy who worked at front rolled their eyes at one another and proceeded to take us to our seats. Never coming here again. Thanks for the horrible service.

Chain restaurants like this usually get a bad rap but we actually had a great time here. My dining companions asked for butter for the bread and it was actually really good. The food is a bit pricey for what you get but the portions are large enough to get a second meal for us. I ordered a wedge salad and it was really good. We ordered the fried appetizers mixed to share and we loved the fried zucchini. Calamari was ok. A bit clumpy. The bruschetta topping was much liked by the table. Everyone enjoyed their pasta dishes. Not mind blowing but definitely satisfying nonetheless.

Man I am so disappointed with this place. I came here specifically for their Baked Ziti Pasta. The disappointment I felt as soon as I took that first bite was soul crushing. I expected a lot from a $23 plate. Imagine my shock when I realized it was just canned tomato sauce and mozzarella cheese. They couldn't even bother to season the sauce. It was bland and watery. I was excited to try it because I had seen pictures of it on yelp and it looked appetizing. But don't let the picture fool you. You could make it at home for free. I guess I expected more, considering every pasta I've had from the neighboring italian restaurant was amazing. ill Bracco for example. Their pastas are $25 and worth every dollar spent. Same goes for North Italia. But Maggianos is a little lazy. Canned tomato sauce sans seasoning. This is not what baked ziti tastes like.

Had a nice dinner there the other week. Went with 4 other people. Service is good and attentive. They serve large, family style portions. We 5 shared 3 and it was plenty of food although the portions weren't huge. The bread and oil on the table was really excellent and they kept the bread coming. All three of our dishes were quite good also. We'd eat here again as everything was quite good although there wasn't anything that was fabulous.

I used to love this place one of our go to for Italian. We went last week and the food now is so bland. My husband ordered the meatball with spaghetti the sauce tasted like it was poured straight from a tomato sauce can and heated and poured over the spaghetti. I ordered the mushroom ravioli that was ok but no taste of the wine they usually use to make the sauce. Very meh food for $24 an entree. Probably to going back.

Yummy Italian food, some dishes seem truly authentic. Nice and welcoming staff and servers. Very romantic inexpensive place to take your date on a weekday or weekend.

Two words. Family style. Great place for a special event or a business meeting. Meeting rooms are quiet. Good acoustics for presentations. Lots of free parking in a convenient Galleria location. The family style menus are the way to go for pleasing a large crowd. Check out the menus on line for options for breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner. Choose a couple of appetizers and salads to start the event. The balsamic tomato bruschetta are so delicious. The Maggiano's and chopped salads are so fresh. Ask for the bacon and cheese to be served on the side to accommodate vegans and vegetarians. The fried mozzarella dipped in marina is such great bite. For entrees, choose from a variety of chicken, meat, and vegetarian options. The eggplant Parmesan is a classic. The chicken Marsala is a family favorite. Add a salmon entree for a balanced selection of options in the family style menu. For pastas, the rigatoni D is amazing. Finish the meal with a couple of sweet treats. The tiramisu is so rich and creamy. The Apple crostata is delicious when served warm. The chocolate layered cake is so decadent to satisfy a chocolate craving. Brunch options include an omelet and pasta bar as well as creme brûlée French toast. Great place for a shower, brunch or a dinner meeting. Hint: ask them to pack the leftovers to go for later.

Service was great , portions are large , coffee/ expresso was delicious and hot . I personally don't like the size of the chicken cutlets that came with my chicken parmigiana. The cutlets were too thick and my food was cold once I received it . I in return asked for mom's lasagna, it was ok but I prefer the lasagna from The Grotto . I see myself returning for coffee and dessert the location was clean and cool

I attended Maggiano's on Valentine's Day, and it was SO GREAT!! I got a rose while we waited for our reservations, it was the sweetest ever. Our server was amazing.. I loved his vibe. We only ordered appetizers. The crab cakes, and meatballs were delicious. They came out in a great and timely manner as well as the drinks we ordered. I'll definitely be returning to try the entree side of the menu!

Went here Saturday night for dinner. The food was great and we celebrated our anniversary.

Great location, enjoyable atmosphere, tasty food selections, and top notch service! We took afternoon stroll from JW and decided to try some Italian lunch out! Jon was our server and recommended excellent choice of cocktails, meals, and dessert! High recommend and ask for Jon!

Came in for our fav flat bread pizza. We loved to get it during the Happy Hour. It was just the right amount of crispy, with a nice mix of cheese and basil. Today the waiter brought us a smaller oval very thick dough with mostly sauce and some cheese mixed in. Very heavy. Please bring back the light and tasty original. NO TASTE. My husband ate it because he was hungry. I bit into one piece and was done. Completely. Will never order this again. Nothing special anymore. If I want bread. I will just order some on the side.

Meh, typical chain restaurant. Service was spotty at best. Didn't get my iced tea until the meal came out. Ordered the meal deal for 2 (two side salads, 2 classic pastas, 1 dessert). When we got the bill (after we gave credit card -- my bad, I know) they had charged the dessert separate.. went to get it corrected and they said they adjusted it but didn't give a new print out? It was just kind of a mess. Haven't been in here for YEARS but the place we wanted to go to was closed for a private event so this was a last minute pivot later on a Sunday night.

While visiting Houston, we went to this restaurant. The ambiance is very rustic but nice. Our waitress was amazing, wish I asked her name. We went midweek & the food showed up hot. The bread was delicious with the olive oil dip. I had the stuffed mushrooms for my appetizer which were plentiful & delicious. That, I could've had as an entree. For my dinner, I had veggies served under a cod fillet. The cod flavor was very good. My only issue was that is was sadly overcooked. That was my only gripe. If in the area, not sure if I'd return only because there're plenty of eateries. That's the only reason.

I was in the mood to try some Italian food while in Houston for a business trip and this place came up as one of the top Google results for "best Italian food in Houston". Do take note that I ordered Uber Eats delivery from here, so this review will not cover what the overall dining experience here is like. Apologies in advance for that. This place rocks! For context, I ordered a calamari appetizer along with some lasagna and a Caesar salad. I wasn't so sure what to expect as this was my first time visiting Houston. Wow - I'm impressed with how high quality the food was! Loved how bread was also served, that's always a must. (That's not pictured in my review, unfortunately.) Portions were huge which is definitely what you want when you come to a restaurant hungry, and the food is prepared fresh. I'd definitely eat here again.

They had a kids cooking class that we signed up for for Thanksgiving weekend and canceled other plans to make it, just for them to cancel the class 30 min before and not even explaining why, just refunding. So annoying and unprofessional.
