“I recently had the opportunity to dine At Carrabba’s location Leslie was my server, and she was amazing polite, very considerate and concern in regards to every detail of our experience, lovely person, request her if you want an opportunity for a special occasionVegetarian options: The bread and oil dip is amazing for starters and then you have a super salad choice and and then there is Sautéed spinachMushrooms“
“This place has the best- most authentic- tiramisu in AL, no exceptions. Went with my folks tonight and had the seafood ravioli for an entree. Not only was the bread crispy and the (seemingly) infused olive oil to dip with perfectly seasoned, but my ravioli sauce... I tried to pinpoint the flavor profile and never could. It was so amazing, but I couldn't put my finger on what made it that way. Hats off to Chef Andrew. He and Scott, our waiter, made that meal a perfect way to celebrate my parents' anniversary. Absolutely no complaints.“
“This is my favorite restaurant. Visited last night for our anniversary, but have been many times. Service is always excellent, food is amazing, bartenders are on point. When we arrived there was a short wait for a table. So, we headed out to the patio, and grabbed a couple of cocktails from the outside window, a dirty mel'tini, and a brown butter old fashioned, amazing. And cocktails are even better when served by quite possibly the friendliest bartender around. Plenty of heaters, and tables available, it was a cold night. Nice string lights, a great place for pre-meal conversation. Once seated we started with a dozen raw oysters, 6 Bayou La Batre, 6 Murder Point. They were fresh, cold and delicious. Then we had our usuals, chicken francese, and beef carpaccio, both excellent, as always. Ended dinner with the vanilla creme brûlée. I almost forgot, the bread that comes to your table is so good, has just enough rosemary, it's warm, soft, and delectable. We will be back again, and probably very soon.“
“We love this local family owned restaurant! We go here all the time. Have had the keto lasagna, regular lasagna, the lobster ravioli, calzones, spaghetti w/pomadoro sauce w/the meatballs & pizza before & it all tastes fantastic! The owners are authentic Italian Americans & it shows the food is tasty, authentic, hot & wonderful every time we eat here. We usually get take out but have dined in before & the atmosphere is old world, family Italian theme. You can tell the food is made w/love & the owners love cooking & feeding people. The staff is outstanding! Friendly & attentive! When we get take out the food is always hot & fresh even when we get it home! Highly recommend!!“
“Joe’s Italian never disappoints!Great food, great service, and a great atmosphere! Andy was our waiter and he was very attentive and super nice! He also was very patient with us and gave some great recommendations for entrees. I wish other waiters/waitresses would take notes from him because he has great customer service skills!We definitely be back to visit!“
“Wow very happy customers here. We we are visiting for baseball tournament and wanted some good pizza and we got it. Thanks Bryd for the great service and delicious food. We lived the Garlic Knots and the Italian Special was perfect. Thanks again and wish we had your place in Freeport Fl.“
“My handicap dad and I had an after church Sunday meal, and it was excellent!! The service was so good that the food didn't have to be!! But of course, the food and desert were amazing!! Our server was Paige. I'm almost sure, and she took such good care of the two of us!!Great job, guys !!“
“Been coming to this place on our trips to Bham for years. Amazing pizza and pastas! We recently tried their cheesecake and it was creamy & delicious. They stay crowded and you can expect a short wait to get your food, however it’s very worth it. Front desk lady was cracking me up on our last trip. They really try hard to give you a great experience.“
“Tried out Vecchia for lunch today. Located in the Moss Rock area of Hoover it was a little out of the way for us, but was recommended by a friend.At first glance, from the outside, I thought that this might be a nice place. Upon entrance I was shuttled down a narrow hallway lined with drinks and wines to a cashiers desk. We placed our order and served ourselves bottled drinks, from a cooler behind us.The prices for a 10 oz pie were $18 so I was hoping for a great find in wood fired pizza for our area.We then went around the corner to a very table cluttered dining area. After noticing that if you asked for water that it was “self serve” from a high school style water fountain in plastic cups. No wait staff roomed the area, only the cashier and the two cooks.When the pizza arrived it was fresh out of the wood fired oven. Nice char in spots but the bottom was still a little under cooked. I ordered the classic pepperoni but had to search to find said toppings. Scarce and unevenly distributed.Then came the bite; the tip of my slice was soggy and limp. No crunch. The bone was nice and crisp with good flavor. The red tomato sauce was bland at best, no spices, I ended up adding salt to my slice to help the flavor. Cheese was thin but nice flavor and pull.I looked for Parmesan, but had to go to the water fountain to find the powdered cheese shaker. (No fresh Parmesan available)Nothing was on the tables but a beer bucket with plastic utensils and off brand napkins.For what was told to me was a true Italian pizzeria I was disappointed. Pizza wasn’t bad but could have been so much better with somespices and flavor. And charging these prices I would expect some wait staff and fountain drinks. (Ditch the high school water fountain).Establishment was clean and staff was nice. Food was OK, maybe even good had it been a lower price point. But Vecchie has some loyal followers and it was busy for that time of day, so others must enjoy it.Overall 3.5 stars!“
“Tonight, my delivery order was slow to arrive. Upon calling the store, I was told that they were short delivery drivers and that a Door Dasher would be bringing my order. I only live a few minutes away, so I decided to pick up my order instead. It was ready and waiting for me, even though the door dasher had just claimed it. I asked if I could receive my delivery fee/tip back, and though the computer system wasn't allowing a refund to my card, I was offered cash on the spot, which I happily accepted. I totally understand that keeping consistent delivery people has been a struggle, and I was grateful to be offered a refund of my fees without hesitation. I will likely plan to continue picking up my orders, as they are always delicious and ready in record time! I do wish they had contacted me to let me know of the delay, as I could have come sooner, but I was glad it was easily resolved, albeit a little bit confusing there for a bit (the door dasher arrived at the same time I did). Thanks for keeping us full of yummy pizza, Marcos!“
“Stopped at Pazzo Pizza Truck and grabbed this huge slice of pizza. There is honestly not much to complain about here I just kinda with the sausage crumbles had more flavor maybe better quality not sure if they make those in house or store bought already made but man was this pizza soooooo freaking good and hot! The cheese was perfect with a nice sweet flavor just how I like it, pepperoni was huge and delicious could really taste that smoky pork flavor, the cheese was so well cheesy with a light mild flavor and just amazing, and guys that crust it was a perfect golden brown it was a perfect New York foldable slice and that's what I did I folded that bad boy and destroyed it! Please go check them out and if you can't find their truck then go to their brick and mortar at Pazzo Big Slice! They get a 9.5/10 from me great pizza!“
“Olive Garden at hoover, My friends and I had a reservation 2 weeks back when we reached there the person told there is no reservation under our name however after showing the message they told to wait so that they will arrange the table for us. In this situation there was a lady at the reception desk who was so rude and we felt discriminating and disrespectful the way she treated us as we are also customers to the restaurants and we weren’t any free loaders there the attitude in her face showed it all when the restaurant is hiring people at front desk they should have minimal knowledge how the person should greet and treat the customers. Due to such kind of people we do not feel like going the restaurant“
“This is a good little Italian restaurant. It mostly has pizza, but I had lasagna, and it was tasty. The atmosphere is all right, but not great. It was clean, though. You place an order at the counter, and they bring it to your table, so service is not really an issue.“
