" Finally tried out Cafe Italiano after hearing so much about it. The ambiance is so inviting, perfect for any occasion. I ordered their stuffed peppers, which were wholly satisfying. They have a lovely selection of desserts which I regret not leaving room for! Will be returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Cafe Italiano is a must-visit if you're in the area. Their homemade pasta is to die for, especially during pasta nights. I loved the truffle ravioli which was cooked perfectly and had a rich flavor. The ambiance is lovely, making it a perfect spot for family gatherings. My only suggestion would be to improve wait times on busy days, as we waited longer than expected. Overall, it's a wonderful place for authentic Italian food! " (*Curated Review*)

" I wouldn't say this was the best Italian food I've had, but it certainly was decent! My husband enjoyed his ravioli but found the portion to be small compared to other places we've been. The ambiance is nice and family-friendly. The staff was friendly but seemed stressed. " (*Curated Review*)

" The gelato is hands-down must-try! I went just for dessert but was blown away and ended up ordering food too! The penne arrabbiata was flavorful and they serve good portions. Perfect for a casual lunch date or a family outing. " (*Curated Review*)

" Charming cafe with a homey feel. I had their pesto chicken pizza and was pleasantly surprised by the richness of flavor. Each ingredient felt authentic, adding to the overall experience. Highly recommend trying one of their authentic desserts after the meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was a bit let down by my last visit. The food was good, but I felt that the service was lacking compared to previous experiences. I enjoyed my sandwich despite the high cost and didn't feel full afterward. I hope my next visit is better. " (*Curated Review*)

" The Gelato here is fantastic! I tried a few flavors during my visit and was quite impressed. However, I felt that my meatball sub was just okay. It was tasty but lacked a bit of the authentic seasoning I expect from a true Italian deli. The service was attentive, making for an enjoyable experience overall. " (*Curated Review*)
