" I had my birthday celebration at Taste of Italy and it was a hit! From the delicious seafood risotto to the attentive service, everything exceeded my expectations. The owner even gave us complimentary desserts, which was a lovely touch. The only downside was the lighting; it felt a bit too bright for candle-light dinner vibes. Nonetheless, left extremely satisfied and happy with the quality of the food and service! " (*Curated Review*)

" Amazing Italian food, but I had a hard time with the tables being spaced out so widely and the loudness of the restaurant environment. The staff was great, and the food was even better! The lasagna was packed with flavor and huge portion sizes. Definitely still worth the trip, but I would suggest going earlier to avoid the crowds and noise. " (*Curated Review*)

" My family and I had a delightful time at Taste of Italy! The menu was diverse with a lot of choices. I ordered the lobster ravioli, and it was delicious—just the right richness! The atmosphere was great for families, but it could be improved for a romantic dinner. Service was good, but sometimes they seemed a bit rushed on a busy Saturday night. Nonetheless, I look forward to coming back. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have to share my experience at Taste of Italy—it was incredibly legendary! Everything from the moment I walked in was magic. Friends told me about this Italian gem, and it did not disappoint. The seafood pasta was sensational, with plump shrimp and fresh basil dancing exquisitely in the sauce. And let me tell you about the garlic knots! I could eat them every day! Our waiter even brought us extra glasses of marinara to perfectly complement them. Each bite was a taste of Italy! Can't wait to return next week for another round! Also, do save room for the cannoli; you won't regret it! " (*Curated Review*)

" Taste of Italy was a good dining choice for a family outing. The kids loved the pizza, and I enjoyed the lasagna which had a rich tomato flavor. I wish I could say the same about the ambiance; it felt very casual and slightly noisy. The service was decent with friendly staff. Overall, solid food and decent service, but it may not be suitable for special occasions due to the environment. " (*Curated Review*)

" Taste of Italy is a must-visit! The garlic knots were the best I've ever tasted, and they paired perfectly with marinara. As for my entrée, I had a seafood medley that was absolutely delicious! The vibe of the restaurant had a family-friendly atmosphere, and I enjoyed chatting with the chef about the dishes. It's nice to find a gem like this! I've already told my friends to check it out. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved the chicken piccata! The balance of capers and lemon made every bite a treat. The waiter provided good service, and the restaurant had a lively yet warm atmosphere. It was a busy night, so the wait was a bit long, but it was worth it in the end. What a fantastic dining experience overall! " (*Curated Review*)
