Regina LlergoSeptember 26, 2014The voodoo shrimp are a spicy must, tiramisu and a belli baci to top it up. Live music on weekends and the bar has full table service for a quicker experience. Around 50$ per person, great for a date!
Sarah DrewniakSeptember 13, 2014Good eats. Friendly service. The place filled up by 6:30 on Friday so make sure to have a res. The singing and piano were high quality and not intrusive.
Cady GrovesNovember 12, 2015When you’re here, ya feel like family. The bar is great, opera singers perform in the dining room, and the food and cozy atmosphere are down-home, real-deal Italian. Read more
Trevor KJuly 3, 2016Great ambience. Live singing is fantastic. Service impeccable with some great suggestions. All around a perfect experience!
MorganNovember 4, 2012Food is delicious and comes quickly! A calming dining atmosphere but doesn't require anything more than jeans and a nice top!
David BagwellJuly 21, 2013Great food and very personable wait staff. The manager and chef visiting tables checking on their guests is a very nice touch.
Reithie LeaJanuary 2, 2013Garlic cheese bread and chicken Alfredo are amazing!! Ask for Triston, he's a great server :)
Ann BuchananNovember 4, 2010The spaghetti is $21.95, and doesn't come with salad or soup, you can't have seperate checks, and bread is also extra. Miles the waiter needs lessons in exceeding expectations.
debi stackNovember 29, 2011Chef Duke's Foundation for Kids Gala is Sat. Dec. 3rd & it's always the "talk of the town" for a great cause!
Denny BMay 5, 2013The meatballs are bland at best, only taste the unseasoned bread crumbs. Marinara sauce is Bland and the bread? Come on? Purchased dinner rolls... Wow! Sad excuse for an Italian restaurant

"Some of the best fried chicken in the city."

"The Shrimp Linguine is delicious. The Chicken Rosemarino is to die for (and a large portion too). The Veal Marcella I would pass on."
Luciana Gates - 8.6
"Wow! Definitely some of the best Italian food that I've ever had; and reasonably priced. Service was great. Can't wait to go back for some more brocioloni!"

"Excellent location. Easy access to all the local activities. Hotel is clean and comfortable. Casino is large enough to make all happy."
Frank Caramanica - 8.8
"I am a gin addict and the Gin Fizz was great- not too sweet, strong, or weak. Ambience is great even though it looks stuffy from the outside."
Craig Olson - 8.7
"There is a reason this place is still a New Orleans must. I had the cafe au lait and the beignets - all excellent."
