Called at 2pm to make a reservation for 8:45pm. Confirmed multiple times that 8:45pm would be okay as they close at 10pm and was told it would be alright. Drove to restaurant (20 minutes away) just to be told that they are closed even after mentioning a reservation for 8:45pm being made earlier. Had to find an alternative restaurant to go to so late in the night on a Sunday. Inconsiderate staff.

The food is very good and so is the service. I don’t drink and was only charged $2 for a soda. My pasta dish that came with eggplant (Rigatoni alla Norma) should have had more than two small, thin slices on top. Eggplant is one of the cheapest vegetables out there - no reason to skimp on that !

Very good authentic Italian cuisine and the best option by good measure in the royal oak area. Owner was attentive to our table and service was impeccable- food came quick and tasted fresh! The ambiance was nice and perfect spot for date night!

This place is amazing. The food is great the polo Tosca I think that's how you pronounce it. You have to try it, the service, the waiters and waitresses the owner and his son they take care of you like your their own if you've never tried da Luigi you don't know what you're missing out everything on the menu that I've ever ordered is great authentic Italian will definitely be back many times

Their calamari is great, other items were good and very well prepared.Service was overall good.Their space is small, so table spacing is limited; be prepared for that and a higher ambient noise level.

My sister and her boyfriend went to dinner here last night for Valentine’s Day and had a terrible experience. My sister’s boyfriend went ahead and made a reservation for 7 PM and went to look at the website and pictures of the restaurant weeks in advance. When he called yesterday to confirm the reservation, they said that they had lost the reservation and they had to get pushed to 8 PM. In addition, they said that the restaurant did not look like the pictures, and that they had Clearly added more tables for Valentine’s Day. Not only did the restaurant lose the reservation. They were also put near the door where it was freezing cold. On top of that they were sitting next to someone that the workers clearly knew and employees were constantly shouting over their table to talk to their friends and getting in their personal space. They said it was so loud they couldn’t even hear themselves talk. When the food came out my sister said her Gnocchi was FROZEN COLD in the middle and they only gave her 7 tiny pieces. They left still hungry and very disappointed. They are way too nice and didn’t want to say anything, but I’m sorry this is ridiculous and I hope no one else has this kind of experience. I understand that Valentine's Day is the busiest day of the year for restaurants, but adding more tables should not sacrifice good service.

My absolute favorite place in Royal Oak! The best gnocchi and rigatoni in town. The service is incredible, ask for Ashely or Mike! They make you feel like family, and there is no better feeling. If you are celebrating something or just going out for a Tuesday (half off wine) night out, go to Luigi’s!

I went here for a date because we had just walked by, it looked nice, and we hadn't been before. We went and were sat quickly and our waiter was excellent, but the food came out very quickly and was cold and appeared microwaved. The meatballs and gnocchi seemed frozen. We asked the waiter to take the food back because it was disgusting and allow us to finish our wine. The manager came out soon after and comped our food, but was quick to inform us that he needed the table to be vacated in twenty minutes (by then we had been seated for no more than twenty). We left and went around the corner to little bros burgers and had an excellent time.

We had a great time at Da Luigi's and will be back. The staff and owners make you feel like family. All the food was delicious especially the gnocchi, sausage & peppers, and tiramisu. The espresso martinis are labeled as "the best", and they did not disappoint!!! I'm looking forward to my next visit!

Luigi's is fashioned after a chic bistro but they suffer from having a lot of the food premade and when you have an allergy, it makes for not the most pleasant experience. I like Italian restaurants like Bacco and Mare where everything is made to order. The vibe is cozy, but don't expect anything special from Luigi's.
