Food was okay I guess, pretty bland and uninspired. Management seemed to be the most incompetent of the staff, par for the course when it comes to restaurants. Nothing like watching servers and bartenders running around while managers are huddled in a corner by the kitchen. Kudos to our server(I forget his name sorry) for being excellent.

It's good! Had the meatballs, very tasty. The pizza was perfect, and the 8 dollar Weds martinis are outta sight. Lots of single people, too, if you're into that sorta thing!!
This is our second time going to Bar Italia. Tanja greeted us with fresh water and a great smile. She was knowledgeable on the menu, helpful in making preferred suggestions and we enjoyed her being our waitress. We had the Pig and the Fig pizza, which was bursting with delicious flavors. Prosciutto, figs, jam, arugula and cheese, it is a must get! The left overs were just as good. I did the crispy chicken limone which was delicious and fresh, I did order a side of the potatoes which paired well. We also got the garganelli diavolo with shrimp which was just as delicious. Drinks were great between the peach Palmer, bar Italias Jewel it was perfect. Not pictured is two tiramisu which was fluffy, flavorful and a great sweet ending. We will be back, perfect Saturday spot.

We were very impressed with this restaurant. This used to be the place where Brio was located. I ordered the delicious Lasagna! The other people in our party were very pleased with their entrees as well. Very nice atmosphere and great service. We will definitely be back!

I don't know if they are restaurant policies or what system they have. I was in a group of 7 people today, of course, I told the girl, can you set up a separate account for me and she said okay, in the end I told her, give me my account and she responded, I can't make separate accounts when it's a party of 6 or more. Which made me angry because as a waiter you can't make the customer do the math on her check. The waiter's job is to make sure the customer leaves satisfied and in truth she didn't know how to do it in the end because you can't let the customer do their bills if you don't make it easier for them to pay so I can't be 5 stars For that reason, I have been a bartender and waiter for many years and I know that it is possible. For such a fine restaurant, I don't think they don't have an advanced system to prevent separate bills because that's what she said. Bad experience with that.

I had a tremendous time here on a double date, we went last week before the magic game. The food came out quickly and was delicious, probably some of the best italian I've ever had. The servers were super nice and again, fast. I felt like I was a priority table for them and the ambiance was just very comfortable and fun.
Wasn’t told that for 7-10 over guess at the end the bill was going to be under one card. Our server was rude with a very poor attitude. The food wasn’t out of the norm. Worst choice, is not worth to give it a second chance. Recently on 4/9; my birthdate.

Atmosphere was cool, food was beyond bland though I’m sure they overused butter. Wine list was subpar for the vibe, the waiter also didn’t know anything’s about the wines or how to pronounce them. They didn’t know Montepulciano was a red wine… it’s an Italian restaurant…with 10 wines on the list…come on.

Was brought here by family to celebrate my birthday and had a wonderful time. The food was delicious, the service was amazing and the atmosphere was incredible. Will definitely be back again
Fast and simple. They provide good portion sizes, great place for lunch with the spouse. Service also fast and great attention to detail. Chef said thank you on our way out haven’t seen that in years. We’ve been here twice will come back againParking: Come during lunch parking is tough at night. Valet closes off the lots to try and force valet and create tight parking.
Great happy hour!
