" Hands down the best Italian food I've had since moving to Arlington Heights! The food is authentic—it feels like I’m back in Italy when I dine here. I ordered the pappardelle with ragu, and it melted in my mouth. The atmosphere is cozy and perfect for a romantic dinner. I was particularly impressed by the warm hospitality of the staff. They truly care about the dining experience! Fausto's is now my go-to Italian joint, and I can't recommend it enough. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently hosted a small family gathering and chose Fausto's for catering. What can I say? Chef Leo outdid himself! Everything arrived hot and beautifully presented. The highlight was the Zuppa di Pesci, which was an instant favorite with my guests. Each dish was packed with flavor, and no one left hungry! Their service was impeccable, always checking in with us to ensure we were satisfied. I can't recommend them enough for anyone looking to impress their guests with quality Italian food. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a gem! Fausto's is hands down one of the best casual dining experiences I've had lately. I stopped in for lunch and decided to try their seafood salad, which was fresh and bursting with flavor. The counter service was easy and friendly—definitely appreciated! I also loved the warm bread they provided to dip into olive oil and vinegar. The only drawback was the lack of seating during lunch hour, but it's well worth the wait for fantastic food. I can’t wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Fausto's is like stepping into an Italian grandmother's kitchen! The dishes are bursting with authenticity, and you can taste the love that goes into each plate. I had the meatball sub, which was packed with flavor, and the marinara sauce was the real deal! Not to mention the cannolis that we took home—they disappeared in seconds! The service was excellent; the staff made sure we had everything we needed. The only thing I wish is for a larger seating area as it can get crowded quickly, but that’s because everyone loves this place! " (*Curated Review*)

" A little hidden gem in the town! I stumbled across Fausto's while looking for a place to grab dinner. The lasagna was fantastic, layered perfectly with flavors that burst in your mouth. Plus, the atmosphere felt welcoming, even when busy. A special shout-out to the staff who treated us with such warmth. I love seeing owners actively involved during busy hours—this place is clearly a labor of love. I will be returning soon to try other dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was thoroughly impressed with Fausto's Italian Kitchen during my visit! The ambiance was warm and inviting, and the staff made us feel right at home. I ordered the lasagna, which was rich, cheesy, and incredibly flavorful. The portion was generous enough for a meal and a half! Their garlic bread was heavenly—definitely don't skip that! Top it all off with their famous cannoli for dessert; it was the perfect ending to a fantastic meal. I can't wait to come back with friends and family. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently attended a family gathering at Fausto's and was blown away by their catering service. Chef Leo prepared a beautiful spread that included everything from artisanal breads to decadent desserts. The seafood dishes were particularly impressive, showcasing fresh flavors that transport you straight to Italy. Each dish was beautifully presented and served warm, which made the event feel extra special. I have already recommended them for future parties, as I think everyone deserves to experience the quality of food that Fausto's delivers. " (*Curated Review*)
