Had lunch in...chicken parmesan was dry, not enough sauce, chicken tasted old, didn't like. Would have liked ice water at table rather than having to purchase $2 bottles of water. Bread was excellent. Paid and tipped, but no table service, so not sure why.Cannolis that we took to-go for a birthday were fantastic. Rosemary focaccia to-go, also great.

Pizza and pasta on the patio - perfect lunch! Can't go wrong with anything on this menu, exceptional every time.

Just got a takeout order. Asked for a sandwich on focaccia bread with added onions, pickles, and hot peppers. These are all modifications that are able to be made online.Was told it would take longer than anticipated when I went to pick it up—totally fine said I would wait. Could hear the staff in the kitchen complaining about the requested modifications. Heard them discussing that I also wanted dressing on the side. Get home to see that they added the dressing on the sandwich, knowing I didn’t want it on there, but didn’t take the time to remake it properly.It’s a shame this is how they conduct business because I would’ve liked to be a returning customer seeing they are so close to me.

Great place to grab a delicious sub. Fresh meats, bread made in house, great service. Go here once and you’ll become a regular, and get to know the other regulars.

This place rocks!!! They have fresh Italian dishes daily. So much to choose from fresh bread, pastas, gravy. Their Arancini's are by far the best around. Perfect size and correct ratio of ingredients.

During Covid, my husband and I were trying to support local restaurants and we came across Faustos Italian kitchen. OMG! What a gem of a restaurant! The food is delicious, very fresh ingredients, great quality food and the desserts are exceptional. I had their eggplant Parmesan, have tried their soup of the day, a few slices of pizza and their pasta salad, all was very delicious and flavorful and very fresh! They have an extensive menu for both vegetarian and non-vegwtarian food. Everything I ate was pleasing to my palate and taste buds. Freshness and the quality of their food is a total plus! Good quality olive oil was another plus in their pasta salad! The place is very clean too! You will not be disappointed. I have got really good reviews of their catering menu and I look forward to trying them out for catering events in the future!Vegetarian options: Lots of options and very fresh good!Dietary restrictions: They have great vegetarian options along with non-vegetarian options!Parking: Easy to find and enough parking available.

My wife and I are so glad that we chose Fausto’s to celebrate her parents’ birthday .celebrations. My only regret is that the place couldn’t accommodate more people. The restaurant can sit around 32 guests with room for dancing.The food was amazing, well presented and served. We had a custom made menu that we negotiated with chef and owner Leo. He was very flexible and accommodating. Appetizers were buffet style and the salads, main entry were served individually at the tables. The tables had nice linen black tablecloths with linen napkins, nice porcelain plates and silverware. The service was outstanding and at the end the staff even joined us dancing. All of our guests complimented how delicious the food was. We would highly recommend the place for parties and gatherings.
