" Had to wait to get in but once we did, it was worth it! The food exceeded my expectations. We tried a variety of dishes, and each was delicious. The staff treated us kindly, but I felt a little rushed towards the end of the evening. Overall a solid choice. " (*Curated Review*)

" Dined on the patio at Giuseppe's, which added to the lovely experience. The staff was friendly, and I had the caprese salad which was fresh. The only downside was my pasta was a bit bland. I'd definitely give it another try though. " (*Curated Review*)

" The pizzas were good but a bit overpriced. The flavors were nice, but I was hoping for more variety in toppings. On the other hand, the dessert was heavenly! The staff were accommodating, but definitely be prepared for a wait at dinner. " (*Curated Review*)
