" Molinari's is fantastic for a cozy night out! Their staff are always welcoming, and the atmosphere is vibrant. I enjoyed the shrimp scampi, which was perfectly cooked and seasoned. I did find some portions to be on the lighter side considering the prices, but I left happy and satisfied overall. I will come back to try their famous pizza next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" Dined solo at Molinari's during peak hours and was surprised at how fast the service was! The ravioli I had was incredible, bursting with flavor and very filling. The ambiance is very cheerful and inviting, a great spot for unwinding. I will definitely make this a regular hangout for myself. " (*Curated Review*)

" When we arrived at Molinari's, we were welcomed promptly, which set a great tone for our evening. The waiter recommended the special of the day, which was a pasta dish with lobster that was to die for! The portions were generous for the price, and everyone left feeling full. The atmosphere is delightful, a perfect night out. Will return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I found Molinari's to be a mixed bag. The service was great, and our waitress was attentive but the food was hit or miss. The meatballs were a highlight, packed with flavor! However, the pasta seemed overly simple, lacking that authentic Italian punch I was hoping for. I’d say it's worth a visit, but I'd steer clear of certain dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic experience at Molinari's! The pizza was truly amazing - you could taste the freshness of the ingredients. We also tried the veal parm and it was phenomenal. The service was impeccable, and we were seated promptly. The ambiance is perfect for date night; cozy yet lively. Can't wait to go back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I love Molinari's and have dined here multiple times. Each dish I've tried is filled with quality ingredients and heart. However, I had the shrimp fra diavolo last week and found it a bit overcooked. Generally, the service is exceptional, and the vibe is very inviting. Still my go-to place for Italian! " (*Curated Review*)

" My husband and I are regulars at Molinari's, and it has never failed us. The food is always delicious, and the servers are incredibly attentive. They have a comfortable vibe that always makes us feel at home. I had the lobster ravioli last visit, and it was spectacular! Highly recommend this Italian spot! " (*Curated Review*)
