Palermo Pasta House - Review - Round Rock - Austin - The Infatuation

"Palermo Pasta House serves fresh, handmade pasta and thin-crust pizzas with lots of flavor and no pretension. The white stone building located in the middle of Round Rock's downtown strip is always buzzing with tourists and repeat customers downing reasonably priced plates of bucatini, taglierini, and fettuccine. Pick your pasta type and select from a variety of red and cream sauces, or go for a hearty baked dish—the lasagna is fantastic—paired with something off their impressive wine list. The best seats are near the second-story window where you can watch bar-hoppers mill about on the streets below before you join them. photo credit: RICHARD CASTEEL photo credit: RICHARD CASTEEL photo credit: RICHARD CASTEEL photo credit: RICHARD CASTEEL" - Clara Wang

Was in the mood for some Italian food and stopped by here as it was the closest to me. I did not have to wait to be seated and service was friendly and on point. Food was so delicious. I ordered spaghetti and meatballs lunch option which came with a salad, I chose a Caesar salad and because food portion was perfect, I even had room for dessert! I had the tiramisu. All the food tasted great!

This was such an amazing find! So many choices of sauce & homemade pasta. The pasta just tastes so much better when it's made fresh. The lasagna was a huge & we could have shared it. The spinach & ricotta ravioli with the puttanesca sauce was amazing. Also order the side of meatballs because they had such great flavor! The house red wine was delicious. We will be back!

Enjoyed their menu structure of picking the pasta and then the sauce from a list of white sauces, red sauce, and pink sauces. The fusilli with Bolognese was great. The bread that comes with each meal was good for enjoying the left over sauce. They also have baked pasta dishes like lasagna and chicken Parmesan. I look forward to trying more of their dishes! This restaurant is on the Round Rock main strip with free street parking an two sides and on nearby streets.

Absolutely delicious! The spaghetti and meatballs were packed with flavor, and the creamy pasta dish was rich and satisfying. Great portions and cozy atmosphere. Highly recommend if you're craving authentic pasta done right!

We tried to get a table here on Valentines but it was crowded with a wait time of an hour or more. So we made a reservation for March and dined in on a weeknight. Service was polite. The restaurant is set up like a long train compartment with booths back to back. Their fresh bread was good, served with simple olive oil. The cheesy flatbread was fine too. I got the Bucatini with Pink Mushroom sauce and neither enjoyed the pasta nor the sauce (I usually love spaghetti and hoped I’d like the bucatini as well; the mushroom sauce barely had any flavor). My SO got the ravioli with the Pizaiola sauce and that tasted much better. For desert I got the tiramisu, which was served in a paper cup (?) and was very fluid with barely any sponge. My SO got the cannoli which was again the better choice. I wish I could say this restaurant was 5✨and my favorite Italian restaurant in the area, but I wasn’t as impressed with the food as I’ve been at a few other local/family run Italian restaurants in around Rock and Georgetown. Still, glad we tried it.

The atmosphere is very classy as if you feel like you’re in Italy somewhere. House made red wine was crisp to the taste. Delicious. Side salad was great and fresh. In fact, everything was made fresh to order. Got the bucatini arrabiata with meatballs. It was so fresh, the sauce delectable, and the Meatballs tender to perfection. All in all great dining experience.

Great little place with a great selection of pastas sauces and pizza calzone that uses a mix and match style of the different choices. Fun way to do it. Had 3 kinds of pasta and sauces and a calzone and it was a lot of food and the prices are not bad. Woukd highly recommend.

My fiancé and I entered as a walk-in and were greeted by a wonderfully kind host who put us down for a table. There was a 30 minute wait where we walked around the local shops during that time. Once our table was ready, we were greeted by a kind waitress who waited on us patiently, answered our questions, and took swift care of us. The food was excellent, cooked just how requested and was absolutely delicious. My only gripe, coming from the deep south, is that they didn't have sweet tea, but they have many other fabulous drink options as well as some beautiful red wines. The bang was worth the buck and we will definitely be returning!

Im overdue to post this review as this is our go to Italian restaurant in Round Rock. The service and the food are spectacular. The lasagna and specialty pastas are our go to with portions enough for the meal and a take home for the next day. Inside tip, on weekends sit at the bar, typically no wait there and you can see the service as a dinner show. We will keep coming back.

This is in the heart of round rock downtown, cute simple layout. All pastas are made in house. As well as the sauce. Everything was subtle, not too much and not too little. The cheese calzone was exactly what I was looking for. Just right! They had a nice wine selection to pair with your food as well. There was a bit of a wait to sit down, but worth the wait.

Friendly service and great food. We stopped in for lunch and had spaghetti and meatballs, and the anti pasta salad. Both were delicious. I'm not normally a basic spaghetti and meatball kind of person, but it was phenomenal. They make their pasta fresh homemade daily and is so yummy. Highly recommend.!

Tried Palermo Pasta House for the first time during the weekend and definitely coming back here. It's a beautiful Italian restaurant in the heart of Round Rock downtown. The place had a very cozy, comfortable vibe. And service was amazing. The food, however, was so good. Tried the meatball appetizers, ravioli pizzaioli, and fusilli scarparo. All 3 were amazing and tasted so fresh and good. You can see them making fresh pasta when you enter through the entrance on Main street. On a side note , this place has many options for vegans and vegetarians.

Pasta made in house. A good list of sauces to choose from. Basically you can build your own pasta. Taste was good and portion was decent. Pizza charges by the toppings. Overall, a good dinner. Expect a wait during dinner time.

My friend and I came last night because Palermo has been in my bookmarks for a long time, and we were both craving pasta! I had no idea Round Rock had a mini downtown, but it's so cute. We came around 7:30pm on a Thursday night, and there was a 30-minute wait. Overall, my friend and I rated Palermo 7/10. We ordered their calzone with pepperoni and fennel sausage, and my friend LOVED their fennel sausage (that is apparently made in-house!). The calzone bread was really nice and thick, and there was plenty of meat inside. We did think it wasn't seasoned as well, but we added red pepper flakes and that made a difference. I ordered the thin pasta noodles with palermo sauce, and I was really not a fan of the sauce. It's hard to explain, but there was an aftertaste that I wasn't used to. The pasta noodles, however, were awesome. You can definitely tell the difference between handmade noodles and boxed noodles. I ended up switching with my friend, and I'm so glad we did because he liked my pasta more. I really liked his pasta with sausage and pepper sauce. Overall, it was a nice experience and we would definitely come back again to try their other sauces.

Palermo Pasta House is hands down the best pasta I've experienced in the Austin area by far. My wife loves pasta/Italian food and already has her go-to spots like Mandola's or Gino, that changed today. The pasta and sauce are stupendous! We got the meatballs and cheese bread for appetizers and that was a positive indicator of what to expect with our main dishes. I highly recommend them as apps. I wanted to try the pizza but that can come on another trip. I got the Pizzaiola spicy red sauce and meatballs on fusilli pasta. My wife got the Ragú Bolognese on fettuccine pasta which was also delicious. There is a display case for desserts, which pretty much was some plain-looking cheesecake. We were too stuffed to think about dessert. Now to get down to it, the worse part of our experience was how long it took for us to be seated and then once we were seated, it took about 20 minutes before we received our main dish. The wait for a seat seems normal and it's a good sign for a busy and popular restaurant, however, the wait time to receive our food might be more of a management issue. Still the food was delicious and the anticipation was definitely building up. Hence the 4 stars instead of 5. I like the layout and interior decor of the restaurant. I'd even remove the dessert display and expand the bar area. Great experience. I highly recommend this restaurant!

So I did takeout because this spot is so popular they couldn't seat us. Having said that, maybe the experience of dining in would have bene better than take out but I really was not impressed with the pasta and flavors so that is why they lost some stars, because I really had nothing else to review. We tried four different pastas and the pizza. The pizza is the best thing I ordered. Pretty pricey but it is homemade pasta so that makes sense. Take out staff are friendly and honestly it is in a great location in downtown round rock.

I've been wanting to checkout Palermo for awhile and my Uncle's recent visit to town seemed like the perfect excuse to have the family meet there for dinner. We went on a Wed and I got reservations for 6 but it didn't end up being crowded so they weren't really needed. Nice ambience in downtown Round Rock; I've been to the previous few restaurants that were there and this was definitely my favorite. We got meatballs as an appetizer with a few glasses of wine and they also had bread with oil for everyone. To eat, I decided to go a little outside the box from what I'd normally get and got the cream mushroom ravioli. I was waivering on ravioli vs pasta and our waitress said the ravioli was really good which made my mind it. They were filled with meat and were so good. I hardly every eat an entire entree and couldn't help myself this time. My fiance got pasta with peppers and meat and it was also really good. All in all, everyone seemed to really like their meal. Service was great and for the food you get, pricing was pretty good as well compared to other similar options. I can't wait to go back!

Because we were here drop early the other half of our party was not here, but their policy is as long as 50% of you are here they will see you. So we were seated immediately. We were offered water I requested that we go ahead and order our beverages and they were fine with that, the menu is awesome!! So many fresh pastas! Lots of specialty plates too. Cream sauces,, red sauces and pink sauces galore. At our table I had ricotta and spinach stuffed ravioli in a rich red sauce. My son had tagliatelle with a creamy Alfredo mushroom sauce and chicken. He said it was molto delizioso! My grand daughter had bucatini and bolognese and my hubby had spaghetti bolognese. He also said it was a good thing he didn't order extra sauce like he always does because there was absolutely plenty available on his plate. This is the man that never eats all of anything, and he ate the whole thing!!!!! I was stunned. We were served four rolls before our meal came. I didn't ask, but they appeared to be ciabatta. Everything was so fantastic that I didn't detract any portion of a star, but they don't serve butter with the rolls which I found kind of odd. I know there was Parmesan cheese on the table and honestly I was chatting so much it's possible maybe they had some olive oil and I just didn't see it so next time I'll check. Service was very good-diligently checking but not annoying. I very much appreciated the recommendation for the ravioli as I would not likely have tried it on my first time dining there. They have an extensive wine selection. Desserts looked amazing but we were just too full ! We will definitely be going back. I see why this is my son's favorite Italian place. The public parking garage is half a block up Main. There's lots of angle parking but if it's full the garage is very convenient. This is a very nice corner restaurant that is family owned and operated, and I felt like I had experienced a little bit of Italy while dining there!!

I LOVE this place..The red mushroom sauce was the boom. The sauce wasn't sweet, wasn't tart wasn't bitter.. it was just right.. I'm still trying to figure out what made it so good .. best homemade food outside of your own kitchen and not all kitchens but the best. Service was outstanding. I had my 2 schnauzers with me so I sat outside which I would have done with or without them.

Not an authentic experience. Traditional dish I ordered typically has a thicker sauce with an al dente consistency. The sauce was salty, runny, and pasta soft. The portions are small for such a high price and poor quality. Service is intermittent at best. I would categorize this place as a neighborhood Olive Garden.

Sooo DELISH! I was craving authentic Italian food, not just from a chain & Yelp led me to this place. On a side note: if you have not been to downtown Round Rock , you should! It's so nice! Love the vibes. Back to the restaurant: it was so charming. My sister and I will definitely be back. I got the pink pasta with mushrooms. Insanely good. My sister for fettuccine alfredo. Neither one of us got any meat. Then we also shared a calzone with pepperoni & ham. UGH SO GOOD. Our server helped us pick out our dishes. Food: 1000/10 Drinks: I wish they had Italian sodas! Or sparkling grapefruit! Parking: street parking (I found free spots) Important: double check your bank account. We got charged over $100. They quickly fixed it and I'm so thankful. WE WILL BE BACK!

Fresh handmade pasta - need I say more? Their portions were very satisfying and you could tell this was no Olive Garden with its fresh homemade pasta. We didn't get to try it but their calzones looked HUGE as well. Surprisingly, their creme brulee was actually very good with delicious vanilla flavor and a great way to end the meal. Not pictured are the bread and oil they served at the beginning. The restaurant itself had a very calm and casual vibe perfect for a chill date night or dinner with a friend. Free parking can be found at the city hall parking garage only a block away.

Had an amazing time here for dinner. The food was delicious and incredibly well made. i could taste the freshness of the noodles, it made a huge difference. The large salad was a great size to share with my husband as a starter. We sat at the bar to eat and our server was attentive and never let the bread stay empty for long. overall great vibes in the restaurant and can't wait to come back here again!

Party of two on a Thursday night. We had great service and overall very good food. We parked a block away since the garage across the street was closed, but no biggie. The downtown Round Rock area is great for a short walk. We made a reservation and were seated as soon as we walked in. We started with a pizza - Pepperoni and garlic. This was maybe the best thing we ate all night. I ordered the pappardelle (not available every day, so you might want to call and check if they have it if you are a pappardelle lover like me). I chose the mushroom cream sauce and it was a solid 8/10. My brother ordered the bucatini with carbonara sauce and he wasn't as impressed with his entree as I was. I tried it too and we both settled on a 6/10. We each had a cannoli for dessert and I would give the cannoli another 8/10. Very good overall. Service was great. I had a beer that was good but can't remember what it was. All I can say is that we both agreed we would come back and try other pasta dishes and get another pepperoni and garlic pizza!

Cute little corner Italian place in downtown round rock. I've passed by it so many times and could smell the food and always been meaning to stop in, finally did on a Friday night around 8p. We were seated after a 10 min or so wait and so happy we were able to get in. They make everything there in house for the pastas and breads and the menu is a simple approach with an independent style because you can build your own pasta dish. What you read is what you get from the menu and it's delicious. Simple ingredients and the dish that comes out tastes delicious! They have enough variety for everyone to at least find something they like. Our waitress was very attentive and knowledgeable of the menu. Would definitely try again.

This is the first time at Palermo and will be the last time. Our waitress had the worst attitude and it's because of her I will not go back !The food was decent but not worth to go a second time.

I came to Palermo's with a group of 9 for a Friday dinner. They didn't take reservations so we came early around 5:15 pm and weren't seated until about 6:30 pm. Service was friendly but quite slow. As a big group, we were able to order a variety of things and the majority of what we got was just okay. The quality of the pasta itself was excellent but the sauces were lacking. We ordered the carbonara, calzone, chicken alfredo, ragu bolognese, lasagna bolognese, pizza, and dulce de leche cannoli. The lasagna and the cannoli were definitely the highlights of the dinner.

A favorite for us. Wife recently went for lunch and ordered usual pasta dish. It did not compare with previous renditions. Sauce was bland and pasta was overcooked. Very surprised. New chef? Will try again in hopes that this visit was an aberration.

We visited this place on a night out to see the downtown lights. Service was excellent, very friendly and accommodating. The place had a very casual and somewhat quiet atmosphere that was conducive to conversation and socializing, which is something rare these days. The pasta choices were good and the spinach salad I ordered to share was large and with a very good dressing. The pecans were caramelized to perfection! The pasta we ordered, three different types (sorry, no photos were taken), was good but the portions were very different depending on the type of pasta, my husband ordered Gorgonzola spaghetti and his dish was very small, my child had pink mushroom bucatini and her was much bigger, mine was the scarparo fusilli and it was quite small as well. The sauce was plentiful in each dish but there was no bread to soak it up... bummer! The presentation of the plates could be so much better! They were plain, pale looking. Only beer and wine for sale... they could not fix a peach Bellini for me. I would recommend this place to people with small to average appetite and who do not care about food presentation.

Called to see if we could reserve a table. First call they hung up without speaking. We assumed this was a mistake. Called again. Told that the only way to get onto their list was to stand in front of them (which is perfectly fine and standard) but the person was quite sharp and when my wife went to ask another question they hung up!! Well they lost our business. Rude. I understand they might have been busy on a Saturday early evening but basic common courtesy costs nothing.

This place is fantastic!! The fact you close mid day and make your pasta fresh for each shift is genius and delicious! The service was a little dicey but ended up over all going well. By this I mean we sat for about 11 minutes and trust it was eleven before we were greeted. Crazy thing is we were sitting In front of the kitchen. So , the people exposing food saw us, manager, cooks, and definitely a two servers passed our tables and greeted other tables that sat after us. Long story short our server arrived and took very good care of us. Ambiance is solid as it's a calm cool collective laid back !! Booths and tables with bar seating. Few TVS which is always a plus and music in the background at level that enjoyable! The food hit the spot as we started with the Caprese which was mozz balls tomatoe bombs, fresh basil and balsamic! Always an oldie but a Goldie!! I had the spinach and cheese stuffed ravioli with the prosciutto & mushroom cream sauce! I also three homemade meatballs which were fantastic!! The Rav and sauce where a perfect combination of flavor and taste profile!!! My wife had the fusilli and caprese cream and raved about hers !! She wished she would've added chicken!!! This place is all around fantastic and if your in the DTRR area looking for some great Italian Pasta please check them out !! Oh BTW The in house made Tiramisu is absolute FIRE

Visited here on a Sunday after church. Looking for something to eat with family. Cute place in downtown Round Rock so decided to give it a try. Small but intimate inside. Decently clean. Service was okay. Started with appetizer of charcuterie type items. Didn't love it. Some items tasted good and then others a little too "aged". Had a salad and it was good. The Raspberry vinaigrette has Dijon it it which seems like odd mixture. My Aunt had a pasta with wine red sauce that was delightful. I did see the calzones being served that looked huge and amazing. Maybe that's the way to go. Might try again and eat different items (pizza and calzones). Wasn't great for light drinks and apps. Also doesn't offer sweet tea.

Our friends and us returned to Polermo's for an Italian fix and we were again impressed. We were seated on the patio and had a great server, Kennedy. She took great care of us. All of our entrees were excellent, especially my lasagna. Portions are generous and flavors are traditional and consistent. This is a family friendly restaurant with a wide variety of pastas and sauces. This is our go-to place for super comfort food. Definitely a repeater!!

My wife and I recently visited Palermo Pasta House for the second time, and once again, we had an amazing experience. This charming Italian restaurant has quickly become one of our favorite date night spots. From the delightful dishes to the excellent service, everything was top-notch. For our main courses, I opted for the ravioli stuffed with spinach ricotta cheese, accompanied by the scarparo sauce. The flavors were truly exceptional, with the creamy ricotta perfectly complementing the earthy spinach. Each bite was a burst of deliciousness, and I couldn't have been happier with my choice. My wife decided on the spaghetti with carbonara sauce, and it was an absolute winner. The balance of salty bacon and rich egg yolk created a symphony of taste that left my wife craving more. It's safe to say that Palermo Pasta House knows how to master the art of pasta. Our waitress was attentive, checking on us regularly without being intrusive. Her knowledge of the menu and genuine enthusiasm made us feel truly valued as customers. To end our delightful meal, we indulged in the raspberry cheesecake, and it was the perfect finale. Overall, our experience at Palermo Pasta House was outstanding. The quality of the food, coupled with the attentive service, made for a memorable evening.

Loved everything about this place! In a beautiful historic building in downtown Round Rock. Tall booths kept your table's conversations private. The pasta was cooked perfectly, the sauce was amazing. The Caesar salad was a bit lack luster, but everything else was delicious, including the tiramisu - wish they served it in glass because I love seeing the layers, but after the first bite I didn't mind so much. Also, our server was incredibly patient with our questions and helpful with the menu. Love it when local businesses higher young kids who are eager to do a great job and are able to deliver! Would highly recommend it!

We tried pasta, pizza, salad there. The quantity of salad was huge. The pasta quantity can be little more. But the sauces Alfredo and Arrabiata were very tasty. Tomato basil sauce was okey. Pizza was definitely tasty. Staff was courteous and nice. I do recommend and will go back.

Stopped in here today since I went to the library, and grabbed some lasagna to go. I gotta say it's not what I expected from a place that not only makes its own noodles but has 10 different sauces on the menu. It's pretty basic. 3 layers of noodles, one of ground beef, one ricotta. Tomato on top. Mozzarella. Very low salt. For 18$ (no breadsticks, no salad, just a wedge of lasagna) I really expected thinly expertly crafted layers of homemade noodles perfectly marrying with a bolognese and a bechamel. Nothing about this meal makes me want to eat here and try something else (and they even have a Gorgonzola sauce). Sad.

I was really excited to go here and try their fresh made pasta but I think it was not the best I have had. I wish I could have enjoyed my dish more but sadly mine was lack luster and my husbands was worse. He tried a strange thick pasta and did not have a problem with it but I did. The service was meh, we arrived and put our names on the list then went to get a drink since it was about an hour wait. I had to call them and ask them to call me when the table was ready. They were great and did call so we went there and the table was ready! The server greeted us and then got our drink order. We got wine and it was great, then we shared the bread which comes complimentary. Then our food arrived. The bread was tasty when you dip it in olive oil and vinegar! The pasta was delightfully fresh but the sauce was just alright. Our friends loved their pasta dishes though. The ambiance was lovely with the restaurant environment being nice and busy. I think I would come back here. Keep in mind that parking is not always easy to find on a weekend and be sure to come with a small party so you are seated fast! Overall it was a nice experience and I would order something different.

Checked out Palermo Pasta House for dinner and it was pretty good. We tried their homemade pasta, veal short ribs, and fennel sausage. The pasta was fresh, ribs were tender, and the sausage had a nice kick. Solid place for some Italian grub!

Found this restaurant through several Google searches. It always came up the highest rated. I was impressed with the quality of the pasta and the way it was perfectly cooked. The sauce (gravy to some) had a very balanced flavor. I agree with another reviewer, Azul is perfect at her job and knows a-lot about the items on the menu. Trust her, she knows her stuff.

A hidden gem in downtown Round Rock. We came here to celebrate my 2 year olds birthday with the family. Arrived with 15 minutes of opening so we didn't have much of a wait. I'm not sure if they take reservations but by the time we left it got busy and had a bit of a wait at the front. The ambiance inside is very pleasant and the service was great! Now to the food, as soon as we arrived we got fresh warm bread rolls. They were absolutely delicious and hit the spot while we ordered. The pasta menu looks quite daunting but in reality it's like a make your own dish! You get to choose the sauce and the type of pasta...sounds simple but once you realize that there are tons of cream sauces and tons of red sauces it gets more complicated. It also sounded like all the pasta is made fresh in house in the morning which makes this even more fun experience. I enjoyed the pasta carbonara with taglieri, it was not as thick of a sauce I typically have had in the past but it was still very tasty. The ravioli with pink sauce was awesome too. We ordered this for the kids but the entire table took bites and loved it. if you are celebrating a birthday you can get a mouthwatering cannoli!

Wow, what an amazing experience. 3 adults and 2 kids - total bill $110. We had 2 small portions of the butter and parm sauce for the kids, the creamy pesto with chicken, ravioli with Alfredo and chicken, and the chicken Alfredo. It was the best pasta I've ever had in my life. We had wonderful service from start to finish. We gave back clean plates all around bc we didn't leave a single ounce uneaten. Didn't have to wait long for the food - maybe 15 min. Impeccable. Would recommend 10/10!!!

Our first time trying Palermo. They have moved to the space previously occupied by Ajo and now have a patio! The service was fine, no complaints. Our waters were filled and we were given bread, oil, and vinegar to start. We ordered the appetizer order of meatballs. 6 meatballs in sauce to start. They are small and definitely one biters so order accordingly. It's 6 for $7 For our entrees we tried spinach cream, which lacked flavor in my opinion. I did not enjoy it but our 10 year old ate it. Pink mushroom (with ravioli) was enjoyed by my 6 year old. I thought it was the best of the three pastas that we ordered. Prosciutto, mushrooms, and peppers was what my husband enjoyed most. The ravioli was not very filled so I didn't notice too much of a flavor difference between it and the regular pasta. Our final dish was the 12" calzone. We added sausage and garlic to it. I was really excited to try the house made sausage. It was wafer thin and I couldn't really taste it. The calzone tasted like garlic bread. We enjoyed it but it was $18 for this and to not even taste the sausage is sad. I was exited to try this after learning that it was the Argentinian version of Italian food. We really enjoyed eating Italian food in Buenos Aires but I did not enjoy this as much. My family family liked it better than I did. Solid 3 stars for overall experience. Yelp says 3 stars means A-Ok.

Great place to have dinner. The process is fresh handmade inside the restaurant. Highly recommend if anybody enjoys the Italian food.

Dinner at 5 pm last night with a group of 4 of us. Server was friendly. Drinks came out fast. It took 50 mins to get our food way to long my wife order Chicken Parm they ran out so she had to choose her second choice. How can you be out of a menu item at 5 pm. I ordered Chicken Alfredo which was a small portion taste was good though.

The food was great! The service was also good! The vibe was very soothing. The only thing I wish is that they had more appetizers. They have more salads instead, which is fine! But I wish we had a little bit more options!

Yum, yum, YUM! Looking for good Italian food? This is the spot! Homemade pasta for the win! Delicious plate options and so much to choose from. We've been here a few times. The service is hit or miss unfortunately. But definitely worth checking out. Save from for dessert! The tiramisu and cannolis are amazing!

5/5 Was craving Italian and this was the spot. First time visiting and was amazed. The service was incredible. The food was delicious. There was a four cheese tortellini special YUM, they also have fresh baked bread. I also have the chicken artichoke with bucatini pasta. The restaurant is family owned and you definitely feel the love inside. They make all their pastas fresh from scratch as well. Will definitely visit again when I'm back in the area.
