    We went to The Italiano for the first time last night and it was SO good! We’ve been looking for a great Italian spot and we’ve officially found it. The food and the staff were both fantastic. We’ll definitely be back!

    Chef Joey has done it again!!! This place was amazing. Great staff, great decor, great flow and FANTASTIC FOOD!!! Every bite was amazing. My fiance had the bolognaise and I had the Italiano Mare. Both dishes were so full, we had to take home leftovers. We started with the grilled octopus and that was stellar too. The staff was so friendly and made suggestions based off of their likes and not just off of highest priced items. The restaurant is beautiful inside with lots of light, art and decor that really feels like a top notch restaurant. I cannot wait to go back and try the charcuterie cart!!

    Excellent service! The waiter Nate was great! Only issue I have is the portion size on the Lobster ravioli. It was 5 ravioli and that’s it. For $34 that is all you get, 5 ravioli in some sauce. Won’t be ordering that again. Tasted good but nothing special.

    Did not like the table location. We sat where everyone lines up and waits for tables. Will ask for a table in “main dining” next time. Food was great.

    Ok so I do not write reviews often but this was SO disappointing. What kind of Italian food is this? You can tell chef Joey has never had good Italian before. I’m an Italian foodie from NY- I KNOW good Italian. Who mixes mint with ricotta and zucchini? Eggplant parm? It was oily mushy eggplant with melted mozzarella on top and the skin was hard as a rock. But the worst part was this short rib lasagna- which honestly sounded good- but WOW. First of all this thing must have weighed 15lbs, I kid you not. I needed a steak knife to cut through it. It was like 20 layers of pasta, blah short rib, dried out bechamel sauce (which was an ingredient I was looking forward to), no ricotta even though it said there was- and did I mention it weighed 15lbs? The only thing we liked was the bread. I honestly felt bad that I didn’t eat the 15lb lasagna that I asked for a box- which I “conveniently” left on the table only to have the waiter chase out after us and hand it back to me, so I guess you can say the service was good. That’s about it- I enjoyed my Coca Cola and bread.
