An elegant Italian dining experience with a great ambiance and outstanding service. This restaurant is an excellent choice for groups and families looking to share a memorable meal. The portions are incredibly generous, so be sure to arrive hungry or plan to share--or take home leftovers, as we did. Every dish, from the appetizers to the desserts, was exceptional. Highly recommended!

Food was delish! I had chicken and for dessert the cookies hit the spot. The service was fantastic.

I'm Italian from NY. I've lived in Ohio over 10 years now and this is the only place I got for Italian food, unless I'm cooking it at home. Waited about a half hour for a table for 2 on a Sunday at 7. Not a big deal. Worth the wait. Not a very loud place. Average noise level for a restaurant. Not a bad date spot. You can still hear the person across from you without any issues. Sat upstairs, which I wasn't too fond of (yes, it has 2 floors), but the restrooms are upstairs, so there ya go. Dave was our waiter. He's been here a good 10 years and knows his menu. Ordered the calamari and the truffle garlic bread. The calamari was cooked to perfection. Not chewy or rubbery. It's as if my grandmother cooked it. Just perfect. Truffle garlic bread was crunchy, yet soft on the inside. Four pieces was just the right amount for me and my guest. The cheese was fantastic. Paired very nicely with the truffle. Got a bottle of the Oberon. Great tasting. Pairs nicely with just about anything. Great sipping wine. Not oaky. Veal and the linguine di mare were ordered. Wow. The portion of veal was a generous portion. Veal was pounded out nicely. A little light on the sauce, but that's a matter of preference. Lots of mussels, clams and shrimp in the linguine. You will have to remove them from their respective defenses. Not a lot of lobster, but it's there and it's real. Linguine is done al dente. If you eat pasta any other way, you can't sit at my table. No dessert. If you have room for it, you should have finished your dinner.

Quick greet at the door, we stopped for lunch, immediately sat at our table for six. Server was at our table instantly to take our drink and appetizer orders. He pointed out the lunch menu that was currently available and recommended the tomato soup when we inquired to the soup of the day. We were in the area to shop, so we all went with the lunch menu. I had the Caprese salad and the Margherita pizza. The salad was fresh and the pizza was outstanding . It's a beautiful restaurant, with outstanding ambiance. I'm sure an evening dinner would be a great experience. Highly recommend this restaurant, we only had a short amount of time but the menu looked amazing. Definitely a reason to return to Cincinnati!

First time eating here and was surprised how delicious their food wine and dessert's were! Great dining experience. Staff was great so nice patient and knowledgeable recommend a few menu items to try! We will definitely be back for another date night! 5

My family and I went here yesterday for lunch. The ambiance was really peaceful, and the staff was welcoming. Our waiter was good. I couldn't decide between two entrees, and he helped me make the decision. Wow, was he spot on! He suggested the Chicken Francese, with grilled asparagus, seasoned fries. It was exactly like he described! It was light, flavorful, and so delicious! The chicken had a Parmesan crust with lemon and butter sauce, the asparagus was grilled to perfection, and the fries had some garlic, lemon, and Parmesan cheese. Wow, it all was so amazing! My fries came out cold, and the waitor got me a fresh batch of fries, and they were perfect. My husband got the Eggplant Parmesan and Spaghetti. The eggplant was so crispy, flavorful, and delicious! The spaghetti had garlic, olive oil, and Parmesan cheese on it, and it was delicious and flavorful! Our son got the Spaghetti Meatball entree. He said it was really good. It only had one meatball. It is an upscale restaurant with upscale prices. We had water to drink, and our bill cost $72.00+ for the 3 entrees. The servings are huge, and we all 3 had leftovers. I would definitely recommend this place. We hope to go again.

The bread was good. The Maggiano's salad was top notch. They forgot the butter for the bread. The Chicken Parmesian was good portions and tasted great. My son had the Doke and loved it. My daughter-in-law's Eggplant Parmasian was good. My grandson's cheese pizza was great. No pictures today. We were too hungry and had to eat. My son had apple pie a-la mode. My grandson and daughter-in-law shared Strawberry Shortcake. I skipped dessert, but the wife had chocolate cake a-la mode. The bomb.
