    Alexis our server was awesome! Drinks were reasonably priced but did not have Miller Lite either in bottle or draft. The food came out in a reasonable time and was very good, my wife is Italian and likes the chicken parm, there is lots of flavor in that dish. Pork marsala is, the same thing, I would recommend these dishes.

    I love this restaurant! Food and staff are excellent. I grew up in an Italian home, and the food is spot on. Best Italian in the city.

    I’ve been waiting to try Maialina and it was fantastic! Our table tried: nonna’s meatballs, Parmesan garlic bread, calamari, Caesar salad, arugula with lemon vinaigrette, rigatoni rustica, cacio e pepe, and salmon. All outstanding and delicious!!!! We will be back again!

    We had tried this restaurant out for our Valentine’s Day dinner and was pleasantly surprised by its fairly quiet atmosphere. We walked in and every table was full but the noise level was pretty low. We were seated immediately and we started with an order of the garlic bread for an appetizer which was delicious. I ordered the cacio de pepe with shrimp while my boyfriend ordered the chicken parmesan with a side of roasted potatoes. My meal was ok, it looked as advertised but the fresh peppercorns were a little too strong for me. The shrimp that was added tasted pretty good, they give you 5 jumbo shrimp for an $8 additional cost. My boyfriend said his chicken parm and potatoes were about average but were lacking seasoning which would’ve really made the dish stand out. Overall our experience was pleasant and we may go back in the future to try new things.

    This is now our go to for Italian. Food is great and there is good selection of different dishes and appetizers. In my opinion you get a good amount of food for the price you pay. I highly recommend this place.

    Loved the food and service. However, my mother was in a scooter from a recent foot surgery and we did struggle to get her into the restaurant d/t unlevel concrete. That would be my only complaint.

    Our waiter was attentive and apologetic that things were going slow and off timed (our main course came out at different times). It was really loud. My SO and I struggled to hear one another at the same table which kind of takes away from date night and didn’t match the nice setting. They have tables as close to the door as possible so if there’s anyone waiting for the hostess you basically have a cold breeze and people waiting up against your table. The food was just ok and honestly I wouldn’t choose this Italian place again when presented with some of the other options in Indy. If we were meeting for drinks and appetizers then maybe it would be different but for date night dinner or bringing people from out of town it’s just meh.

    The food was very good. The service by Sam was excellent. And the wine was excellent too.
