Cheese wheel pasta? Say no more; I'm there. I haven't been to a Babbo location in about three years but when I heard this location was serving pasta tossed in a parmesan wheel, I had to try it. We started off with the burrata appetizer which was delicious! I had the asparagus and mushroom risotto tossed in the Par wheel for my entree. Service was a bit inconsistent throughout the meal, but the manager was stepping in to help wherever she was needed.

The Food was good. Great value and great customer service. Been there few times past couple months. Service is always great. One of the few place my kid enjoys eating. Will continue to go back.

Food was fantastic and awesome service. Non-typical Italian food and all 4 of us had a different dish and each one was terrific.

Service was terrible. Waitstaff was constantly in the back leaving not just us waiting but other tables as well. Waited 15 minutes for 2 non alcoholic drinks. It wasn’t that busy. Ordered an appetizer and 2 entrees. App and dinner came out at the same time. No plates for the app. Food was terrible. “Roasted Chicken, Broccoli, Asparagus, Yellow Squash, Zucchini, in a Parmesan Garlic Cream Sauce, topped with Carrots. Served on Fettuccine” sounds delicious right? Wrong! The “roasted chicken” was a hideous overly processed chicken like product akin to a frozen microwave chicken. Not 1 asparagus tip but plenty of stalks. Broccoli and other vegetables were raw. The carrot shreds were dried out as if they sat out all day. Pasta was undercooked and tough. The sauce had a watery texture. Overall a horrible plate. With that being said we were there about an hour overall, not 1 drink refill. Considering the bill was over $60 for inedible food and neglectful waitstaff we will not be returning.

Kind of a generic American Italian spot. Meatballs are a good choice here.

No help for the servers. Understaffed. Had to wait 20 minutes to get seated. At night the lights were so bright, it killed the atmosphere. The decor was pretty. Food so so.

My son and I popped in for an early dinner around 3:30/4pm. The place was empty and we ordered two things. The "Scratch-made crispy chicken" appetizer and a kids cheese pizza with fruit. Check out the photos. A very poor attempt and wilted fruit. The service took forever and we maybe saw our server every 10-15 min. A poor experience all around.

Tried to eat lunch today. Was seated quickly by the manager. Languished for about 10 minutes before getting up and leaving. Servers walked past us multiple times. We even asked one a question about the menu which she hastily answered. Never bothered to even acknowledge our presence or tell us they're busy and someone will be by shortly. Manager saw us getting up to leave. Said nothing. Won't be going back.
