“Excellent food! Awesome staff! Wonderful atmosphere!“

“Best Italian food in Carmel. Everything is made from scratch and the service was amazing. Very friendly staff. Will visit again before heading back to Phoenix. Thank you for a wonderful experience and evening.“

“Pamela R. is a blessing. She recommends and describes specials, makes us feel at home, is so positive and upbeat. We really enjoyed the lasagna, fettuccine, and spaghetti and meatballs, and fresh salad. Thank you for a fun night out!!“

“I had the opportunity to speak with someone name BOB when I ordered my food in the crazy time of 5:30pm. Yes, he put me on hold immediately when my call went through, but he asked to put me on hold (me knowing it’s Saturday and work is crazy atm) , I waited.

You have some good ‘HOLD’ music! Bob, talked to me about my order (because I don’t normally eat restaurant foods. HOME COOK, but I was tired).

Bob was kind and was kind enough on the last few minutes to get a couple more items in (desserts) before I arrived and was so nice about it.

I cook and if I had to look for someone who kept their cool.. I would choose Bob.

Thank you Olive Garden for having a very nice person to work with your public at this location. GOOD JOB!

I had to come in and see who Bob was.

The gratuity I paid for on a pick up was because of Bob.

I have you a 2-star, because I’m a home cook. I’m a kick ass cook. Just hungry and tired tonight. Simple Alfredo seemed reasonable.

Atmosphere was zero because it was a pick up BY ME.

Service 5 is because of Bob“

“Christine made the most incredible Italian Millefoglie dessert for 180 guests at my daughter’s wedding. It was a beautiful attraction set on on its own table at the reception. Guests raved about its freshness and taste. I highly recommend Stacco House if you are searching for something unique as well as delicious. Christine created a masterpiece with her attention to detail, and her professionalism was extraordinary.“

“I’m never disappointed with the food or service!! Top notch place!!“

“We love Pizzology! Good food and drink. The staff are friendly and keep you updated on your meal. Pizzology is our neighborhood go-to.“

“everything I've had is good, I ordered the wrong thing by mistake tonight and didnt want to wait for a remake. tastiest mistake I've made in a long time the power bowl is really great.“

“Came here after the Indy 500 after we realized the sports bars were packed because of the Pacers game. We love our Jets at home and really just wanted to eat some warm good food after being out all day long.
THIS PLACE WAS BUSY. Wait time said 25 minutes and it was just about right on. The guy at the counter asked everyone who came in what they were waiting on, checked it, and gave an update. The line was working quickly and you could just tell everyone in there was ON IT. Bake, toppings, and accuracy were just as good as we get at home. A nice finish to a long exhausting day. Good management and good staff are refreshing to see - keep up the good work guys :-)“

“Delicious food, from the salad to the spaghetti. Shared a Tiramisu and it was the best we ever had! Friendly staff and great service.“

“I recently dined at puccini's and it was an incredible experience! The pizza and pasta were absolutely delicious—authentic flavors, fresh ingredients, and cooked to perfection. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, making it the perfect spot for a great meal.But what really stood out was the exceptional service. Our server, a lovely young woman whose name I unfortunately didn’t catch, was outstanding. She was attentive, friendly, and made sure our dining experience was top-notch and even gave my kidos stickers at the end of our meal. Her recommendations were spot on, and she had such a warm and genuine personality that added to the overall enjoyment of our meal.“
