Thankfully the food is delicious, because the service was atrocious. And I was just picking up a to-go order. I walked in and stood by the host stand a few minutes while multiple employees looked at me and walked in the back or around the corner. Finally someone asked if I had been helped and she informed me to go to the bar and the bartender will help me. After a few minutes he arrived from the back and had an attitude while I picked up my order. Like I was bothering him or something. The restaurant was empty so clearly they weren't busy. Overall a bad experience, but the food was good so that helped. But most likely won't return if service like this is the norm.

The front of the house was terrible! We have show tickets and were an hour and forty minutes early. The front of the house hold us approx 20 minutes wait. 40 minutes later still not sat and empty tables. We were forced to leave so the kids could eat before the show. We always go here before shows and this is the first time we received such terrible treatment and will seriously reconsider coming back. Lots of great restaurants downtown that are happy to have our business. We ended at Tresettis. They made room for us! Love this place!

Food is great and LEMON DROP & Coconut drink are both my favorite. Service is awesome here. Great place to have a drink and appetizer then enjoy the other in the summer. I love the feel of the restaurant the lighting, friendly people and the Servers & bar waiters are awesome here. The cracker is my go-to. I would give this place

We hosted our daughter's baby shower here in the Firecracker banquet room and the experience was amazing. The room was amazing and well decorated. They even had pink flowers for center pieces at each table. The food was great!!!! Everyone loved it. The service provided by Pete was outstanding. The service at the bar by Carly for our guests was also amazing. From beginning to end the experience was great! I hope the owners and management realize the great staff they have there and treat them accordingly! Thank you Fuzio, Pete, and Carly!!!! My daughter was so happy!

This is one of my favorite restaurants in Modesto... The servers are amazing. I always have a good experience when I eat here... The restaurant is under new ownership as of November so if you've eaten there in the past I would suggest revisiting the restaurant sure you will have a good experience. I came today with my friend for my birthday lunch and Nelly took care of us. She was absolutely amazing and attentive and so sweet she made my birthday lunch. Wonderful... Thank you for your great service.

Great service and the food was excellent! The bread was so delicious. I ordered the Rigatoni Alfuzio and added chicken, my Mom ordered the Fuzio Firecracker Pork Fusili both plates were delicious. I had combined her leftovers with mine which made an excellent dish with a bit of kick! Our waiter was very attentive and service was excellent. We ordered the strawberry cheesecake for dessert and it came out missing a large piece of the cake. Our server brought us out another slice and we were able to keep the other but it was so good I forgot to take the picture before devouring it. Will most definitely be coming back!

I was happy to come to this restaurant since the San Francisco location closed. The Fuscili Fire Cracker noodles are my favorite and it brought back fond memories that I had when I went into the office. The staff was nice and the place was packed for a Friday night. There is validation if you parked in the parking structure behind the restaurant.

Excellent service and food! Bacon wrapped dates have a macadamia inside ! But the salmon and risotto was outstanding! And I'd go back for the shoestring fries and garlic dip!

I have been eating here for the past 13 years. I love their food and their service for sit down eating is great. I do have an issue with their to go service. I order the same chicken salad every week for delivery ($20 salad) and every single time (for the past couple months) the salad is inconsistent. The amount of lettuce is always different. The amount of pasta in the salad is always different. That's somewhat understandable but today was ridiculous- there were little tiny cut up pieces (maybe 5) of chicken versus how it's supposed to be a 4+ slices of chicken uncut. Keep in mind there's not tons of toppings so the chicken is definitely the protein and highlight of the salad. I'm super disappointed and hate writing this review but I truly don't understand the lack of consistency in something as simple as a chicken salad.
Yummy! We came here after watching Dune in theaters, which was nice since it's literally across the street. I got the pretzel and got extra cheese instead of cheese and mustard, lol. The presentation was really interesting and our server was very nice and quick too! They have good pasta, and the tri tip is extremely tender and juicy. Very warm and cozy, with a slightly elegant feel. Casual but sophisticated if you know what I mean.

The food was absolutely delicious! I tried two items by sharing and my family frequents the place for their burgers. We were all happy with it.

My wife and I visited Fuzio's last Sunday (Feb. 18th) for a late lunch. We decided to eat here, having done so a couple of times before, and knew he food was good. The Calamari was good, and so was the Blueberry Lemonade cocktail. Everything else...well, I can say we were extremely disappointed. Just YUCK! I had the Firecracker Pork Fusilli. It came out really dark throughout, and it tasted burnt. Burnt as if the pulled pork was covered with a sauce and overcooked in a crockpot. It was inedible. The burnt taste permeated the whole dish. My wife had the Pink Shrimp Linguine and said, "it tasted like it came from a can and tasted fishy as if the shrimp was not fresh." I also pointed out to my wife that the shrimp were not cleaned (deveined). When I pointed it out to our wait person, she said, "ewww! I can see it." It was as if our meals went from being prepared by a Chef on previous visits to being prepared by a lazy cook on this latest visit. We won't be back.
