This quaint cafe is our favorite "go to" place for a nice bite to eat. The food is always delicious and the service is great. We've been going here off and on for several years and have never been disappointed. Love the ambiance, especially outdoors at Thornebrook Village.

Music from restaurant next door was WAY too loud. I could hardly talk to my friend across the table. Food and dessert delicious. Server was kind but I couldn't understand him we he talked.

I love this family owned restaurant! The menu is dependable, the happy hour is great, and the outdoor seating is lovely. Paul, the owner, cools everything from scratch!!

Atmosphere is nice and the service was decent. I wish they were just a bit more attentive to the surrounding clientele. I had the fettuccine alfredo for dinner. I found it to be a bit watery and the noodles a tad bit underdone. Other than that it was a adequate experience. My girlfriend had the pasta and marinara. She thought it was a bit watery. Meat balls were great.

Disappointed-Outside patio was dirty, vines and weeds etc. The sandwiches were all below mediocre. Waitress was inattentive. The weather was perfect. Shame on management for not addressing these problems. Will not be back.

Had the grilled chicken sandwich that came with pesto, aioli, grilled chicken, peppers and danish havarti cheese I think it was. I got the lunch special so it was 9.99 and came with a soup or salad. I got the creamy tomato soup and it complemented it really well that I even dipped my sandwich in there . Very well seasoned and could make a nice pasta sauce honestly. My mom had the tuna sandwich and soup of the day was canellini (white beans) and garlic. Both were great soup selections. I would come back and try other options but was satisfied with everything.

I had the best take out order ever!! The eggplant Parmesan was delicious and I love the angel hair pasta they use! The caprice salad was delicious nice thick slices of fresh mozzarella and tomatoes absolutely delicious and juicy. The citrus crab salad was so good…and the dressing topped it off perfectly!! I can’t wait to have time to actually go sit down and have a delicious meal there. As my experience is only a takeout order That was absolutely great! I can only imagine my dining experience being even better.

I ordered the vegetable sandwich and pasta salad. It was delicious. I sat outside on the patio. It was quiet and nice. I would have liked a bit more vegetables on my sandwich. But overall a good experience.
I can not RAVE enough about how incredibly delicious the food was!! We had the Alfredo, lasagna and meatballs and we already can not WAIT to go back. Not to mention, the prices were very reasonable and they have a fabulous happy hour. 10/10 recommend!!

It was definitely an experience. The drinks were flat, The food had a weird taste, my Caesar salad was very dry, my lasagna had a hair in it and my aunts birthday was ruined. The service was worse than the food, waitress agreed with us when we told her the food was bad. They was hardly anyone there. I will not be coming back.

We wandered through the Thornebrook Plaza and saw an outdoor dining area that was full of life: light music, talking, laughing, ambient lighting, until we realized that was for Cintron next door. The outdoor dining area for Formaggio's was completely empty... for a Saturday night. We thought the place was closed at first, but we peeked inside and saw a lady sitting at the bar, who ended up being our server. We ordered the chicken parm and chicken alfredo, which were both just disappointingly flavorless. Neither of us finished our food and we left quickly. Very unfortunate, especially seeing all the other good reviews on here. Not sure what is going on, but we've been telling our friends that it was not good.

There were two waitresses, we had the curvier one, I believe her name was Kamil. She was nice, informative, and very helpful. We ordered the spaghetti and meatballs. The sauce was good but the meatballs had no flavor, very unseasoned. Also ordered the lasagna with meatballs. The top layer of cheese was good but everything else was unseasoned and tart. The meatballs were also not good. We pretty much left over half of the food there. We read the bad reviews but just wanted to try it for ourselves and yeah it’s not worth it. Left a good tip just because our waitress was really cool. She is the reason we gave two stars instead of one.
Absolutely delicious! Great service, nice outside seating, we're definitely going back!
