I come here each year. The garlic knots are 💯! The pizza is great. If you get a large it’s huge amount. This one is original. It taste better than the other one in town and has servers. There’s outdoor seating by the stream which is lovely. The decor is it’s own and makes you feel like you’re in a unique Italian restaurant. Gilbert has been favorite server but on his days off Chad is also excellent.

First time eating here and definitely won't be our last!! Garlic knots were hot and delicious! The pizza was amazing! The crust was thin but just thick enough on the edges and had the perfect amount of crunch! And oh so much cheese! Yummm! And let's not forget all the super friendly employees!Thanks for the excellent review, Julie! It warms our hearts to hear how much you enjoyed your experience with us, from our tasty garlic rolls and crunchy, cheesy pizza crust to our super friendly staff. So glad we could get you taken care of, and we hope you'll join us again next time you’re in the area. -All the Best, Best Italian

This place is phenomenal!!! The general manager, Daniel, was our waiter and he was great. The wait time was a little longer than normal but overall fantastic experience. The dough is made in house and the calzones are massive! We also ordered a pizza, fried mushrooms, and the garlic rolls. Everything was fantastic. I’m so glad we found this place. I would give it 10 stars if I could!

It was good. But not great. The lasagna was 80% cheese and like 5% meat and sauce and 15% pasta. I was literally eating spoon full bites of just cheese. And for $17! Yes, $17 for a bowl of melted cheese and a tiny bit of pasta....So, yes, …Rachel, we're grateful you and your family gave us a try, but are saddened to hear your experience didn't quite live up to your expectations. It's always our wish our guests leave satisfied, so it's a little disappointing to know your lasagna wasn't to your liking and your daughter's Alfredo looked pretty bland. We're glad your son's pizza hit the spot for him (even if it was on the greasy side!) and that the garlic rolls were a hit for the whole table. Our prices directly reflect the quality and quantity of the items on our menu, so we are a bit surprised to hear you felt our food was overpriced. We hope you and your family will offer us another opportunity to impress you again in the future. -All the Best, Best Italian
