    The meal and the overall experience were fantastic and highly recommended. It’s a large open space so the noise can be a little much if you have a group of people at your table. Service by Kenneth was outstanding. Bread was meh. We had the octopus and calamari appetizers. Cannelloni, Bolognese, Carbonara for main courses. Lemon and chocolate desserts. Food was outstanding.

    Our group had a wonderful time. Everyone took great care of us from the time we booked and had some requests and dietary restrictions to the dining experience itself. We will definitely be back.

    Restaurant Review: Italiano If you’re looking for an unforgettable dining experience, Italiano is the place to go. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, setting the stage for what turned out to be an exceptional evening. The food was nothing short of amazing—each dish was crafted with care and attention to detail, bursting with authentic flavors that transported us straight to Italy. Whether it was the perfectly cooked pasta, the rich and savory sauces, or the indulgent desserts, every bite was a testament to the chef’s skill and passion. The service was equally impressive. Our server was attentive and friendly, striking the perfect balance between professionalism and genuine warmth. But what truly set this experience apart was the personal touch from the General Manager, Michael Kosov. He came to our table multiple times throughout the evening, making us feel like honored guests. His hospitality and charisma elevated the entire experience, leaving a lasting impression. If you’re in the mood for extraordinary food paired with top-notch service, Italiano is a must-visit. We’ll definitely be back!

    What a wonderful atmosphere and the service was wonderful and the food was delicious. They have a cart that comes to your table for charcuterie dish that you can pick 6 items to start your meal out. Staff was very friendly and took great care of us. We were all very impressed!!

    This is my 4th time going to The Italiano. Beware, when you request dining room, they will always try to get you to sit in the lounge and then if you insist, they will offer the table outside the lounge but closest to. Only if you insist will you then get to the dining room! Once in four was wonderful. The other three had great pasta, but extremely mediocre sauces. This is disappointing.

    Overall, we enjoyed our meal. The service was great and the food was very good. The restaurant really doesn’t feel like it’s in a strip mall. Once inside, we got a very “Vegas” vibe. In a good way!
