Mare E Monte Italian Restaurant (San Antonio)

Sooo delicious!! Our group came here on a Saturday afternoon for a late lunch after a rough morning. Mare e Monte did not disappoint! I had no expectation for gluten free options but yes there are some options. The service was excellent and the staff very accommodating. Everyone really enjoyed their food. All our dishes were savory yet fresh and bright. A very lovely dining experience that made our day. Picture 1- Pollo di Piccata (made gluten sensitive) Picture 2- Gluten sensitive bread Picture 3- Fettuccine di Parma with chicken Picture 4- side of zucchini & carrots Not pictured were the amazing salads we had, ate them too fast!

I normally take better pictures, but I could not wait to eat this meal. How have I missed this place?! We walked in and were greeted by the team, "Welcome home". Such a warm and friendly staff. This meal was exceptional. I'm pretty speechless. We cannot wait to go back.

Definitely one of the best customer service I have ever experienced. The manager or owner is extremely friendly and wanting to create a great experience. Food is very delicious. Food is normal Italian sized, not extra big American sized for those who expect huge portions. Parking can be packed during peak hours.

Only giving five stars for each category because I can't give more. This place is wonderful. We started coming in January and stop by when we can. Food is always outstanding. Service is fantastic and the overall atmosphere is very warm and inviting. I always get the lamb chops which are so delicious and always cooked to perfection. I do recommend them but if you aren't a fan of lamb they have plenty of other wonderful dishes for every taste. I also recommend the cheesecake with blueberries if you have room for dessert. I hope they have many more years of success because they have quickly become one of my favorite places.

My parents saw this place on Texas Eats and we came out to try it. I can’t think of one bad thing to say about our experience except that we weren’t able to try more of their menu! Everything was delicious, from the lobster ravioli to the sole to the stuffed pepper. The blueberry cheesecake was incredible too. The restaurant was on the smaller side but very well decorated. The owner, Prince, came around to welcome everyone personally and after we ate he sat down at our table to visit with us. He was so sweet and you could tell he loves what he does! We are already arguing about whose birthday we will be coming back here for!

I have NEVER written a review whether excellent or not so great food/service. Tonight we dined at Mare E Monte after seeing the food on TikTok. The service was OUTSTANDING from start to finish. Andres was our server and suggested some items for us to try. We had the lobster ravioli and the Alfredo. Both phenomenal. Although it was very busy, the owner came to our table to introduce himself and make sure we had everything we needed. I watched the owner go from table to table to make sure everyone felt like family. I cannot get over how exceptional the food and service was. If you’re looking at reviews questioning if you should try Mare E Monte, do it! You’re guaranteed to be as impressed as we were today.

I love going to Mare e Monte. The atmosphere feels warm and inviting, and the staff are always friendly and attentive, which really adds to the experience. The food is consistently delicious. The Calamari all’Arrabbiata is one of my favorite things to order, crispy and flavorful without being greasy. The pasta dishes are also excellent. I recently had the fettuccine with chicken, peas, and mushrooms, and it was rich and tasty but not too heavy. I also have to mention the complimentary bread and olive oil. The bread comes out warm and fresh, and the olive oil is high quality with a nice flavor. It’s such a good start to the meal. Another thing I appreciate is the personal story behind the restaurant. The “1999” sign on the wall refers to the year the United States helped bring peace to the owner’s home country, Kosovo. He’s incredibly kind and grateful, and you can feel that warmth in how the restaurant is run. Overall, Mare e Monte is a wonderful spot for a meal with great food and genuinely good people running it.

Hands down the BEST Italian restaurant in SA! This may be the best Italian I’ve had in Texas. The restaurant is beautiful, every single staff member was friendly, and the food was phenomenal. Our server Oliver was wonderful, but the manager (maybe owner) Prince has the most genuinely warm and welcoming energy. Highly recommend everyone come try this local gem ❤️

My girlfriend and I visited from out of town for my eye surgery. This place is a godsend. EVERYTHING was incredible!! Prince, the owner, runs the restaurant with flawless efficiency. It's nice seeing him walk around checking up on people and chatting with them! He's hard to miss; he's very tall with a contagiously outgoing and sweet personality. The veal and tiramisu were TO DIE FOR. If you're traveling and get the chance, do yourself a favor and eat here. You will not be disappointed. Ask for Gabriela; she's the sweetest server in the world! We're extremely satisfied with our visit; PLEASE let this establishment flourish for many years to come!

Went back for lunch today with my colleagues and we got them all hooked from the moment we walked in the door. Prince, it was delicious and the whole place was flooded with warmth and hospitality! Thank you for the amazing hospitality, excellent service, and loving care with each dish. Melaniaa- absolutely phenomenal service! Truly top notch! You are an absolute rockstar! I asked you to pick my food for me, trusted your judgement, and you did not disappoint! The lamp chops were perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor. Thank you!

This place is located in a strip mall. The parking appears to be sufficient. If you arrive during a busy time, go in and put your name down. They use Yelp to manage their waitlist, and in the mean time, see if you can snag a seat outside and peruse through the cookbooks that they have available. There are some interesting ones. Once you are called inside, go forth, and be seated at the table they assigned you. You'll be offered after and bread, and you'll look through their menu. We opted for: Carciofi al Tartufo -- grilled artichokes with prosciutto, mozzarella, olives, and some white truffle oil. It came as a three set. However, one of the artichokes was inadequately prepared (e.g. the tough fibrous portion was still very present), so presented an unpleasant eating experience. Also, while the combination worked, sorta, the flavor was overall uninspiring. Ravioli Mare e Monte -- lobster ravioli? Don't get lobster ravioli from here. Lacking in flavor and in lobster filling. The meatball was very nice though. Gnocchi Bolognese -- gnocchi had a good soft texture, but the bolognese needs some salt control. This was a salty dish. A burrata is always fun, as are the extra meatballs. Too bad we didn't order meatballs. Their meatballs are quite good. We were here on Mother's Day. So the place was loud and busy. But the decor was nice. And the cookbooks outside are a nice touch. The chef (or one of the chefs) saw us and a few other guests off, and did apologize for the longer time it took for the food to come out. Since all the dishes we ordered had problems with their preparation and execution, including a long delay, I unfortunately cannot provide a middling review to this place.

I came here by myself on a Saturday around 8:30 pm. This place came recommended by the San Antonio Restaurant group on FB, so shout out to them! I was seated promptly upon entering. The service was efficient and kind. There were so many intriguing options on the menu, but I decided to go with the Pollo e Monte. The food was excellent. It had a really nice twist on conventional Italian food, and I appreciated it. The owner came to my table multiple times to make sure I was taken care of. Sometimes when eating alone, I get ignored by the service, but I appreciated that I was getting the same amount of attention as other tables regardless of how many are at the table. I'm definitely coming back the next time I'm in town! I would love to try their desserts.

I really liked this place. Had not heard of it but was then invited to a birthday party here. Very happening place- good energy and flow! People were extremely nice. Wait staff was engaging and owner stopped by! Food was very good! Classic Italian with a twist that was good. TRY THE ASPARAGUS APPETIZER! My steak was good and my wife's ravioli was excellent. Good bread, too. Check it out!

This past Saturday, we visited @mareemonte for lunch. It was nice to see Prince welcoming all the guests as usual. Aram was our server, who cared for us from start to finish. Dad had the Lasagne al Forno. He seemed to enjoy it, though it was tough for him to finish by himself. I tried the Orecchiette Di Terra with spicy sausage and thick tomato sauce. Yum! I also had to take my leftovers home. Hubby had the Sole Oregenata, which I've had before. He finished every single bite. We were full and had no room for dessert. Prince was kind enough to send 2 desserts home with us (Cheesecake with blueberries and Tiramisu). I've been rationing the desserts and slowly enjoying them. Thank you, Prince! Your place always feels like home away from home. If you haven't tried @mareemonte, you should run, not walk, to visit soon!

I watch Texas Eats interview with the owner of this establishment and was impressed. So it was our wedding anniversary and I told my wife we're gonna check out a new restaurant. Let me tell you the waitress Salma was awesome and very helpful. We ordered the calamari and the Adriatic shrimp, oh my that dish is sooooo delicious! The owner (Prince) kept making us feel at home and we appreciated that. We ordered the Pollo Bronx Parmigiana and the Sole Oregenata. Both of these dishes were superb with a tasty flavor. We really enjoyed the atmosphere and food, we will be back for sure!

What a fantastic meal!!! We started with the artichokes ( Carciofi al Tartufo ) for an appetizer. I loved these so much. Each bite of artichoke with crispy prosciutto and mozzarella... yum! My hubby ordered the (Bistecca) the NY Strip. His meal had fettuccine with spinach. The steak was cooked to perfection and the pasta was buttery creamy good. He ordered two sides, the mushrooms and the duck fat potatoes. DELISH I ordered the Pasta al Nero! Wow I've never had a black pasta before. I was very excited to try it . This meal did not disappoint. I did add extra shrimp . I will definitely be going back!

Great dinner tonight- I had the Sole and it was amazing! Service was excellent will definitely go back!

The ambiance is excellent. The service was better than perfect, if it was possible. The calamari was delicious and the two dipping sauces were tasty. The Caesar salad was the best I've ever had in Texas. Nice creamy dressing. We had the sole on a bed of risotto, with a couple of shrimp on top. My wife said the shrimp was too salty, but I loved it. The risotto was superb. The bread and dipping oil is what I'm used to at good Italian restaurants. My wife likes buttery bread from another place, but this bread and oil was exactly what I like. The oil was seasoned perfectly. We live hours away. If we were local this would be a regular haunt for us. Highly recommended!

Another 5 star visit. This time for Sunday lunch. We were greeted like family and assured that the team was there to help us have a wonderful meal. This put us at ease and we appreciated the commitment to customer service. Everything was delicious and my partner loved the spicy flavor of the Bronx chicken dish. I took a chance on the Sole, thinking it would be a thin filet. But it was thick and came on a wonderful bed of risotto. This is a great place for a fine dining experience with a heart.

Great food!! Service always good! They took great care of us! Had Sole oregenata amazing!! Highly recommended

Enjoyed my meal at Mare e Monte. The place was beautifully decorated and elegantly lit. Staff was incredibly attentive, and very eager to please. Food was good; a bit on the pricey side. Portions were great. The owner introduced himself, was incredibly friendly, and recommended some good wines. However, I have to say I wasn't blown over. Food was a bit on the bland side, pasta sauce was grainy, and our waiter interrupted our conversation too many times. They also came and saying happy birthday to a friend and offered her a free vanilla ice cream, which was very tasty. I completely understand being attentive to the table, but this was a bit over. Overall, this restaurant left a good impression, and I would definitely come back to try some other offerings.

Another fab meal here!! This place never disappoints.From the moment u step in till the munute u leave the whole staff is amazing. Every dish we have had is perfect. My go to is the chicken parm and hubs is the steak with alfreado/spinach.. and of course have to get the tiramisu..def a must try!!

Beautiful restaurant inside with little lamps on each table to set the right moody setting. The owner made us feel right at home and was very attentive. He worked extra hard to ensure everything was up to standards. Our server was very sweet and changed out our silverware in between appetizers and entrees. There was not a moment that she didn't make sure the food was right, no empty plates were in sight, and complimentary bread was always refilled. Very great service and dining environment. Coming from Houston to check out this place, it didn't really surprise us. The food was decent but not anything to rave about. The mashed potato was a little bland and we wished that it came with a garnish. We had to send a steak back as it was over cooked and chewy. My favorite appetizer was the asparagus fries, it was seasoned and cooked perfectly with the perfect amount of crunch. Overall a great dining experience but the food left us feeling more to desire.

I had came here for my birthday and as soon as we stepped in, we immediately noticed a huge wave of welcoming and positive vibes! The owner immediately greeting us and telling us how grateful he is that we chose Mare e Monte for our special dinner. The dim lightning and cute table lamps definitely allowed to set the mood into a very relaxing and romantic vibe that definitely elevated the whole experience. I ordered the Fettuccine di Parma and it has a really nice taste to it, the sauce was on the watery/thin side but other than that, no complaints! For dessert we got the orange tiramisu (not pictured due to devouring it within seconds) and it was such a unique flavor with a perfect mix of citrusy and the coffee/cream flavor of the tiramisu. Throughout our visit, the owner did come up to us multiple times to check up on us as well as everyone else in the restaurant, that was definitely such a nice gesture and definitely sets this place apart from others in that sense.

Decided to try this restaurant after it was recommend to us, & it was delicious! The staff were super nice & we were able to get seated right away. The atmosphere & restaurant itself is very pleasant. The food was delicious! The artichoke appetizer was different & very good! The chicken Parmesan was cooked perfectly & tender. Will easily be coming back here!

The food is well prepared. Some dishes: Sole fish-delicate and buttery in taste absolutely delicious Asparagus frites-crunchy and dipping sauce was great very good Salmon generally, a little overcooked, but well seasoned. Egg plant Parmesan plate was average Veal Parmesan-crispy well prepared delicious Crabcakes taste like the average out of the box frozen Artichokes well plated flavors were delicious Restaurant is a little small, but has a lot of ambience We went on a Sunday so the service we received was a little slow. The server made some inappropriate comments to work the tip. I let him know it was inappropriate. This is truly the only reason it got four stars.

The great thing about this place is...no reservations! Went on a double date on a Friday for dinner and the place was lovely and packed to the brim. The owner was there holding the door open for us. He sincerely apologized for the wait but we had much to catch up on with our group. We waited 30-45 for our table but it was worth it. Some couples were dressed nice, others very casual(think hoody with a baseball cap). The food was delicious! Tried the black pasta and had a try of my gf's gnocchi. The waiter tended to us and our every need. He was great even made a great suggestion on the wine bottle we split. There is a TV at the bar if that's more your cup of tea. The blueberry cheesecake is one of the best cheesecakes in town! Come give it a try!

Second visit and it was even yummier than the first. Lots of operational things have improved since their opening and there's a real wine list now (see pic). Ordered the artichoke appetizer, which was so savory. The truffle oil is very light and doesn't overwhelm the marvelous artichoke umami. Beware the addictive complimentary bread and delicious olive oil. It will fill you up. We also ordered an eggplant parmesan for the table. I highly recommend doing this. So good! The sole was tender and moist and luscious. I like mild tender fish. To be fair not everyone at our table likes that type of fish (ie the calamari people) but I loved it. The calamari was well prepared and well seasoned. It could have used more crisp to the exterior though. The chicken Parm was excellent and far more interesting than your typical dish. The service was very attentive. I appreciated our server bringing an ice bucket for the white wine. Not many places still make that effort. Water glasses, ice tea, and wine glasses were kept filled. They make a very nice attempt at fine dining service that is uncommon for a reasonably priced strip mall restaurant. Definitely a dining bang for the buck here. Better service than many restaurants that are twice the price. They make you feel special. Highly recommended.

Two days of visiting.. lunch and then dinner. Yes, it was that good. However, it is an experience. The staff and owner are super nice, very accommodating, and timely. We enjoyed the quaint location decorated for the holidays. The owner is involved and spends time with each table. He was a joy to talk to. The food was over the top amazing. The table ordered lamb chops, Pollo Bronx Parmigiana, Pollo al Marsala, Pasta al Negro and more. Everyone absolutely loved what they ordered.

This is our 3rd trip to this fabulous restaurant. We both had new dishes so I needed to report. Had a doctor appt off Spurs Lane, so this is so convenient for lunch. We could pick our table so we grabbed the table under the moon. Why had all the other people not taken this table ???? They also have a new map on the wall. Great place - High ceilings, quiet, great service. Since we had 1.5 hour drive home, we started with unsweetened iced tea. Very good, crisp, clean. Warm crusty bread with dipping sauce served. Now the new dishes. The wife had the lobster ravioli. A nice taste of lobster and the sauce was not over whelming. She enjoyed 6 or so and took 3 raviolis home. The pork chop caught my eye last time so that is what I ordered. It must have started over an inch thick and butter flied. It was huge so took half home. It was so tender and topped with fig jam and pecans. Served with a greens salad. So good. You need to come and eat this! Service so good. Prince the owner talked to us. So nice. He told us that everything was fresh. No walk in freezer. 4 Sous chefs on duty in the kitchen. Very good prices for the servings. We will have a delicious dinner again tomorrow. Great Italian in San Antonio.

Highly recommend this spot. We came here to celebrate my best friends birthday and immediately felt like a guest of honor with how friendly and welcoming the staff is. It's not on their menu, but my friend ordered the carbonara and it's amazing, ask for it, they'll make you anything. Another friend ordered the Bronx Pollo Parmesan and wow, I was so impressed with the flavor of the chicken. I ordered chicken with goat cheese and red peppers with a side of potatoes cooked in duck fat, guys, everything was amazing, the food was delicious. We also had the calamari, its spicy hut add some Parmesan cheese and it balances it out. It also had sliced garlic and it just added that extra texture plus flavor. For dessert, highly recommend the blueberry cheesecake, one of the best I've had. It's been on my mind since and I will be returning. The decorations inside are beautiful, love the decor.

Outstanding service and delicious food. Excellent price-to-portions as Mare e Monte strives to satisfy your appetite. I had to try appetizers, main course and dessert. Their Italian cuisine is delicious and gives me a sense of fine dining... but with bigger portions. They' were in the process of getting their ABC certification so bring your wine until then. They'll pair your wine with their menu items. 4 stars for my initial experience here. Their 5th star is coming as soon as they offer their wine selection... of course this is after they get the ABC certification. The owner takes pride in his business. I'm sure his wine list will not disappoint.

Outstanding! This has become our favorite dining experience to share with our friends and visitors. The wait staff is uniformly friendly and attentive and the food is amazing!

Went for lunch with some friends who were craving Italian food. Had heard about this place and decided to give it a go. Service - Excellent. Checked up us often and quick to refill tea, patient while we visited. Didn't feel rushed at all which was nice. Ambience - clean, comfortable with linen and cloth napkins. It's always the little things that make a difference. Not noisy so we didn't need to shout at one another. Another little thing! Food - I got the Sole served over an asparagus and spinach risotto. Fish was excellent but the risotto needed another 45 seconds to finish. A bit too al-dente? Wife got the Caesar salad with shrimp and loved it. Friend got the chicken parm and loved it. Owner was social, interesting and very pleasant! Definitely will go back again to try something different!

We went on New Year's Eve and there was a wait, it was so busy, however hostess and even owner touched base with us on several occasions to make sure we were up to date with parties that were leaving! Chicken Parmigiano is my go to, and I was hesitant on the "bronx" style but this dish was Exquisite!!! Absolutely my new favorite!!! Bread was fresh and warm! Potatoes were so tasty!!! This is smaller, quaint restaurant perfect for date night or friends wanting to catch up!

4.25 stars. I'm with the Yelpers on this one; Mare e Monte is fantastic. In fairness, I've been all of one times but that visit was enough to convince me that had I continued to live in this city, Mare e Monte would be on the short list for semi-casual favorites. I say semi-casual because the dining room has white cloth and the servers dress up really nice but you really don't have to follow suit. I was in my regular short sleeve dress shirt and jeans and definitely did not feel out of place. The location itself is a bit off-putting as it's just a random strip mall center. But come inside and you'll immediately forget that. Initially, they give you some bread and olive oil like many Italian places around San Antonio, and like most of their competitors, it is quite good and difficult to avoid if you happen to be cutting carbs. You've been warned. We dove into with the shrimp oreganata for an appetizer which is essentially Mare e Monte's version of the classic "shrimp Paesano" at Paesano's. It is tough to pick a favorite between those two dishes although Mare e Monte's version features a little less acidity than the locally famous dish at Paesano's. Appetizer versions are about a dollar difference so it's really kind of the same experience except I like the ambiance and service quite a bit better at Mare e Monte. While I liked the shrimp oreganata enough on its own, it was my main dish that was truly the star of the show. I ordered the "Pollo Scarpariello" which also features butter and wine (just like the shrimp oreganata) but instead pairs it with chicken, sausage, and some spicy red peppers for good measure. Want to cut through some of that flavor? Mare e Monte has you covered by smartly pairing this dish with a roasted vegetable medley. I would definitely order this over and over again. It was absolutely delicious. Reasonably priced places with excellent Italian food like Mare e Monte don't tend to exist in big cities across the country. San Antonio is blessed with more than a handful of these excellent places, and Mare e Monte still manages to shine just a bit brighter than almost everyone else.

The food was fantastic, the vibe is amazing, the waiter was efficient, at times though, we were a party of 13, our waiter was on point, I had the seafood risotto, I think the pieces of seafood should be cut a tad bigger, I had to "fish" around for the seafood, great flavor though, the calamari was perfectly crisp, and very delicious, so meatballs appetizers were good too, great texture and flavor, oh and FYI if you pay with cash it's at $10 less, versus using your card

This is a really enjoyable place to have a meal. This is one of those places that blur the line between fine dining and casual dining. However, when you first walk in, you are welcomed like you were coming home for a meal, which is very nice in my opinion. We chose this place because we were in the area and we were taking my wife's Aunt out for her recent birthday. It was a lunch that was well spent spending time talking and catching up, much like a family meal should be. No electronics and such. The decor is very cozy. The moon on the back wall is super cool and the books make it very comfortable for me. Think of it as a cozy place to have a meal. Our server, Jase, while looked super young was a pro. My wife hesitated in asking him to recommend a wine from the list and I immediately felt he could without hesitation. And he did with flying colors! The wine he chose was very tasty for a Cabernet in the early afternoon. A full body aroma, yet light taste. We ordered our different meals. I had the Bronx chicken parm, my wife had the sole with scallops with creamy risotto and our Aunt had the chicken marsala with veggies. Everything was tasty and the temperature of the food was great. In different types of dishes, it's hard to really keep the temp on certain dishes due to cooking times, but it was perfect. The taste of the sole and scallops with risotto was super light and creamy. Very well done with the scallops, which were perfect as a compliment to the dish. Yes it's extra, but worth it. My chicken parm was a surprise. I am a New Yorker and have high expectations on certain dishes and this is one of them. Very few local restaurants make a good chicken parm and this one was a different version that I actually really enjoyed! I mean jalapenos under the parm?? Oh pleasantly surprised by the pop of slight heat. But be warned for people who do not like spicy stuff. But for me it was very well done. The chicken was lightly breaded, cooked and seasoned very well. I personally would have liked a bit more tomato sauce, but I get the combo of the dish, the creamy pasta under the chicken parm made up for it. So much so, that I want to come back to just have pasta. Dessert is also a thing without family where if the food is beyond our initial expectations, a dessert is a required meal. I had the cannolis and my wife had the tiramisu. We took home a slice of cheesecake for our daughter. The cannolis were delish. I wanted a bit more chocolate chips, but that's a minor gripe and personal preference. The tiramisu was the winner in my book. The light creamy texture with the slight coffee taste was great. I really enjoyed tasting that as well. My daughter had the cheesecake and she enjoyed that as well, but she mentioned it was kind of cakey at the outside portions, but that is what you get for homemade desserts. So all in all, a great time and great atmosphere with great food and service. All the pillars of a great place to enjoy a comfortable meal. We will be coming back!

Don't skip on this place. You have to try it. From the friendly service to the wonderful food, it was truly a five star experience.

It's been months since Ive been. Food is still delicious. Service always on point. If you didn't know, like i didn't until my second order of GF dipping bread, they now charge. The waiter informed me when I asked for a second order of bread for the meatballs I had ordered. Thinking maybe $5 each order, nope $8. I get it cost more to make pizza thin dipping bread. Definitely won't make that mistake again.

Our family visited this restaurant on a trip to San Antonio. The food was delicious. I love eggplant parmesan and have it at many places, but I think this was the best I've had! It was crispy, a little spicy, and the sauce was amazing! My kids had chicken alfredo and the pork chops. They both really liked their food and they can be picky. The waiter did an excellent job and the owner (I think) stopped by the table to welcome us. It looks small from the outside, since it's in a shopping center, but the inside was nice, very clean.

1st time, tried the chicken parm and pollo alla picata , both were very good, loved the kick the parm had, excellent service and fair prices, left stuffed

I've seen this restaurant recommended multiple times on multiple pages I finally tried it out for myself. The food was delicious, packed with flavor. I had the Bronx Pollo Parmigiana, chicken was cooked to perfection.. topped with the vodka sauce... yumminess overload!! Don't leave there without trying the White Chocolate Strawberry Tiramisu, very delicious perfect amount of sweetness. The restaurant itself is super cute and cozy. Very welcoming atmosphere. What stood out the most on this visit was the amazing service. From the moment we walked in we were greeted by the staff and promptly sat down. The owner Prince came over to the table when we arrived and made sure all was ok. He checked on us multiple times while we were there. As we were finishing he came over sat down and chit chatted for a while. Will definitely be back to try out some more dishes. Give them a try if you haven't yet. Other items pictured that we tried : * Ravioli Fritti * Shrimp Oreganata * Pollo Alla Picatta (the lemon butter sauce was so delicious )

Excellent Food, Service and Community. Quaint and Lovely. You won't be disappointed!

Food, Service, Ambiance were all wonderful. So relaxing feels like we were cared for and served at our own home. Went on a whim to this delightful restaurant and it's now going to be our go to whenever we want good Italian food. Prince is the owner and makes it a point to visit all tables to ensure everyone is pleased. Great experience.

I'm a frequent traveler for work, spending over 100 nights/year in the road. I came here mainly as it was one of the closer restaurants to the hotel and I'm glad I did. Service was exceptional. From the hostess to the server to the owner who greeted and spoke with everyone in the restaurant at least once. Food was fantastic. I had the steak which was tender and cooked perfectly. Presentation was top notch as was the taste. Finished the meal with the blueberry cheesecake. Great choice! Do yourself favor and stop in and give this place a try. You will be glad you did!

What a gem! I am glad I discovered it. The customer service is superb. The owner came to our table to greet us. The waiter anticipated our needs. The food was delicious. The prices are reasonable. I started with a Caesar salad. I didn't realize it was shareable. It could have been a meal. For my meal, I had been craving eggplant Parmesan. I was surprised this was a side item and not a meal, but with the salad and that, I was full. The portion size of the eggplant Parmesan was a good size. The sauce was so good, I scooped it up with the bread provided as an appetizer. They currently don't have a liquor license. They do offer you complimentary wine. That is a nice gesture. The restaurant is located next to other businesses and has a shared parking lot. The inside is very pretty and modern looking.

the food is really good, the customer service is top notch! we enjoyed our entire experience and we will definitely be back!

We spent my husband's 58th birthday here last night and the food and service was impeccable! The owner, Prince, is a whole vibe! He makes you feel like family and shows so much gratitude for your visit. The food is next level, I mean everything my lips touched was amazing! My husband had the lamb chops, seasoned to perfection! My sister n law and myself ordered the Sole. The light & crispy seasoned fish is on a bed of the best creamiest risotto you will ever taste! My brother had the chicken or veal (forgot the name) with a huge meatball on top that was gone in a blink of an eye. We also had the Calamari all'Arrabbiata, I didn't get a pic but just order it and thank me later. You MUST try this restaurant, even if there is a wait, it is worth it! 10 out of 10, wonderful experience!

Come eat here.... Seriously! I came in hungry and left feeling like family. The pasta and atmosphere were perfect. I often dine alone but this is one of those rare restaurants that I never feel lonely. The staff are so knowledgeable and professional. A classy find near the medical center with a fresh many and a decent wine list.

The owner is so nice and greets every table. The food is great and unique to the restaurant. We always enjoy it here.

We have been here several times and each time it just gets better. The food is delicious. The service is on point and outstanding , and they are very attentive to your needs. The wine is very reasonably priced and pairs well with the meals. We will definitely be back !

Yesterday we met some friends at this adorable restaurant. The owner greeted us as we walked in. Super friendly and very nice. We had not seen our friends in a while so I forgot to take pics of the starters. We started with the special of crab cakes and grilled artichokes. They both were really delicious. I got the shrimp Cesar and it was great. Just the perfect amount. My husband got the sole with shrimp and asparagus risotto. It was so good. I'm going to have that next time. Our friends got the chicken parmigiana (Bronx) I didn't read what they called it on the menu and they loved it. My husband had a bite and he thought it was great. The service was fantastic. Our waiter was very attentive. The restaurant had a really bright atmosphere. I loved the decor. We will definitely be back.

The food here is amazing!! A must try if you have no idea where to go. Service was perfect and the ambience was nice. Nothing to fancy just perfect.

Came here on Saturday night for birthday celebration with a bit of wait for 6 but the owner, Prince, was so nice and brought us from waiting outside in the rain to the bar and kept checking on us. Food was worth the wait. We started off with shrimp appetizer which had a spicy kick, fried calamari with nice, light batter and 2 dipping sauces. For meals, we had salmon, lobster ravioli, bolognese gnocchi and lasagna which were all excellent as well as warm complimentary bread. It was worth the wait.

Great ambiance, Customer Service excellent. Food was incredible. The entire staff is committed to making you feel welcome and apart of their family.

TRY THIS PLACE OUT!! it's so good and such a cute little space. the servers are so nice and go above and beyond. the owner came and thanked us so many times and called us by name. the food came out so hot and tasted very fresh. this is one of my new favorites.
