Great food and service in a beautiful historic building. Our waitress helpful and very good. They have large portions at a fair price. I highly recommend saving room for the tiramisu however most meals come with a ice cream dessert.

I ate here the last time I was in Louisville years ago and remembered as being excellent. I've literally thought about it ever since -- so I was bound to be let down by the real experience...and I was. But that's mostly the fault of my own very high expectations.I had the spaghetti with Sicilian meatballs and while it wasn't QUITE as good as I recalled, it was still very good and immensely satisfying. The meatballs were very nicely spiced and I really like the sauce.The spumoni that came with the meal was more plain chocolate than spumoni, but really tasty and creamy, so still very good.My biggest complaint is that I was told it would be a twenty minute wait and it was closer to forty -- they texted just as I was about to give up.Still, the food is tasty and the atmosphere is fun. If you've been to other locations, you pretty much know what to expect. I liked it, and I'll go again, either here in Louisville or to one of the other locations.

Decided to give this place a try, needed some Italian in my life lol. Ordered the Garlic Mizithra with no mushrooms. Can’t say I found any garlic in this dish. The bacon has a few burnt pieces in it, I mean they be black and bitter. I assume all of the saltiness in this dish was from the cheese. I added the meat sauce and chopped meatballs to it and it helped. But as I are the saltiness just kept building and building. By the time I finished the dish it was getting hard to eat. It started out pretty good but there was just so much of the cheese to overcome. The bread was just a bread. Nothing special, didn’t seem fresh baked and didn’t come with butter. The minestrone was pretty good, but not the featured dish I ordered. The meatballs were tender and flavorful. Overall I would say things were pretty average. But maybe worth trying something else another time and posting again.

My family and my meals were mouth watering good. Ask for the 3 course meal here and I guarantee you'll get full. Waitress was a superior server.

I had a great time. I whent with a big group and a small group and waiting times were what would be expected. The food was AMAZING, not just the main course but the soup and ice cream as well. The decorations were beautiful and created a lovely atmosphere. The staff was very kind.

So I forgot to take a photo before eating but this was delicious! The portion size was large enough for two people. The meal is a three course meal so it comes with salad and ice cream. The ice cream so very good definitely a nice treat.

Very good Italian restaurant. Only had takeout but the restaurant looked nice on the inside. Food was packaged to keep it very warm for my walk back to my hotel. Had two lasagna orders and was told one piece of bread per take out order. Lasagna was tasty and a large portion. I would try again.

Wonderful place great food and fun atmosphere. Waitress was great, I highly recommend the Italian Cream Sodas.

I called 7 weeks ago to make a reservation for April 15th at 5:00pm for 30 people. They took my name and number, told me they had me down and said if they had any problems they would call me. I called tonight, (April 13th) to confirm my reservation and now they do not have my reservation. They will NOT accommodate my group. The MANAGER (I am pretty sure his name was Scott) was very RUDE and not willing to help at all. Now I have a group of 30 looking for a place to eat.

Theresa is one of my favorite servers she fast and kind ❤️ love this place
