We hadn't eaten in all day as we had taken a red eye flight and fortunately able to check in early…read moreso we settled in and took a nap before heading out to linner. Initially we went to a Puerto Rican restaurant but it had closed so we decided on Italian and found this place nearby. Honestly, we weren't expecting much as we had previewed the menu and I expected it to be a lower quality restaurant but I was wrong as the food was excellent. We were so hungry so we started off with the caprese (7.99). This was the least fave of what we had. It was ok, not much to it though. I love pizza so I ordered a med veggie pizza and added pepperoni (17.00 + 4.00 for pepperoni). BFF ordered the chicken portobello which was served over a bed of fettucini. Both the pizza and pasta were excellent. My eyes were bigger than my tummy as I only ate 2 slices of pizza and took the rest back to the hotel. Our server was very attentive and provided excellent service. The only thing I did not care for was there was a 1.93 diff between the cash price and the card price and I hate when businesses charge that cause you know they're still making money as they are charging more than what the service is charging them for the point of service. Unfortunately/fortunately, I just deducted that amount from the server's tip.

Tuscany is a neighborhood Italian restaurant that my family has enjoyed for years. Our most recent…read morevisit was this Sunday, Mother's Day. A local musician we enjoy was scheduled to play during dinner hours. I called the day before to try to make reservations, but they don't take reservations on Mother's Day. First come first served. As we assumed it would be very busy, we arrived at 4pm. We were seated promptly, given menus and our drink orders were taken. Our server was wonderful. Warm, knowledgeable of the menu and quick with accurate answers to questions. She also provided quick, accurate and friendly service. We ordered the spinach dip and chips appetizer for the table. It was fine, but not super flavorful. I'd say it was just ok. The chips were quite good. Bread and marinara was brought to the table. It was warm, fresh tasting and flavorful. We enjoyed it. I ordered a side garden salad with ranch and the shrimp casserole. The server made a point to let me know there was pasta in the casserole which I thought was nice. I wish she had reminded me there was Italian sausage in it. I'm not a fan of Italian sausage in anything. There was nothing wrong with it, I just don't like it. I ate around it. The shrimp, pasta, broccoli and cheesy cream sauce in the dish were cooked and seasoned to perfection. Very tasty. My salad was pretty good. The blue cheese dressing was delicious. My husband got the sampler and I tried a bite of his lasagna and it was delicious. Our daughter ordered shrimp diavolo. She enjoyed it and there was enough for her to bring a big portion home. My parents got the fettuccine Alfredo as they always do and enjoyed it as much as ever. We ordered some desserts and coffee so that we could linger awhile to hear the live music. Jeff Rehmet is a great entertainer. His beautiful playing and witty banter added a lot to our Mother's Day celebration. He took some requests which was nice. Our desserts were very good. Between us we got tiramisu, lava cake, cheesecake and biscotti ice cream. Everyone loved their desserts and ate every bite. My only complaint was that my coffee was not hot. It was lukewarm. That was a bit disappointing as it was chilly in the restaurant. Still tasted ok and not enough of a big deal to take the shine off of a wonderful evening and meal with family. My parents picked up the tab so I'm not sure about the bill. Tuscany is not cheap but not outrageous. Prices are fair for the quality and amount of food. All in all we had a great experience. We will always return to Tuscany.

The ambiance is clean, minimalist, mature with a menu that speaks to a tenured chef. I had the pate charcuterie and the creme brulee. Ill be honest. I was just messing around with the pate.

I dont like when a restaurant overs does the brulee... umm, mill 4 iron . You'll like this place. The pizza was yummy and the noodle dish was cheesy and creamy.

Barchetta di Pane - this was the next actually which surprised us all. The bread, cheese, and sauce were all so flavorful, fresh, and complimented each other. TS Farms Chicken Quarter- this was very good. My friend who got the branzino ends dip likening this more and I ended up liking the branzino more. The chicken was definitely more filling than the branzino. Branzino- this was light and refreshing. It's a small portion but very good. I would order this again for sure. Rhubarb Pastry - fantastic. Maybe a touch sweet for me but everyone at our table loved this. Service was great. Very knowledgeable of the menu and kind. Everything came out at a good speed: not slow and not too fast. (I hate when things come out too fast). It's a NY style atmosphere with lots of natural light in the front from windows and darker in the back. There is also outdoor seating I have yet to check out cause it's been too hot.

Delightful experience all the way around!…read more We (party of 3) dined early @5pm on a Saturday night and had no wait for a table. Adam, our server, was an absolute gem when it came to suggestions for food and drink! We took every one of his recommendations and were very happy we did!. The Tuscan Ribeye, Peach Pork Chop, and Pasta Rosa were all delicious! We each had a cocktail and a Caprese salad. Delightful beverages and salad! My Pasta Rosa was everything I had hoped it would be... bright, creamy tomato vodka sauce with grilled chicken and pasta. My husband's Tuscan Ribeye was done perfectly. My stepson's peach pork chop was seared beautifully and the sauce was fantastic. We dove right into the food (which was terrific) so I forgot to get pictures. By dessert, however, I controlled myself long enough to take pictures of our Tiramisu and Crème Brûlée -- both as tasty as they were beautifully presented. The ambiance is loud and lively (even early in the evening) so, if you have trouble hearing you might want to request a quiet table, if they have one.

We all drank water, soda or tea and they kept our glasses filled. We ordered the pork chop dinner that came with risotto and vegetables. My husband loved the veggies and risotto but was not thrilled with the chop. He wishes he would have asked for a steak knife as it was difficult to cut with the butter knife provided. It was tender enough but neither of us cared for the flavor. I had the Primavera. It was a bit bland. I had to salt it several times. Our favorite part of the meal was dessert. We had a piece of lemoncello cake that was flavorful, creamy and light. We both thought it was great. We had about $20 left on our gift card and were disappointed we couldn't use the balance as the tip. So we ordered two more desserts to bring home to use the balance of the gift card. We brought homemade a piece of Italian cream cake that was as good or better than the lemoncello cake and it was a huge piece of cake. We also have a piece of caramel sea salt cheesecake which was pretty good. It was loud in the small space and a bit difficult to have a conversation across the table. The background music did not help with this issue. The staff were friendly and helpful boxing up our leftovers. Tables have white cloth tablecloths and the owner was making rounds to greet all the patrons which was nice. We discovered there is parking in the back of the restaurant, as so many of the spaces in the area have signs indicating you will be towed if you park there. We had to park on the street about a block down.

Next, the drinks...I had white sangria and my sister got the limoncello spritz. Both were delicious, well served, and generous pours. For appetizers, we got the goat cheese spread and garlic butter mussels. This is where we learned about the BREAD. I could survive on this bread. Thank goodness portions are large. My brother got a cup of the tomato bisque, which is served with puff pastry on top. For dinner, we ordered carbonara, jumbo shrimp limone, and lasagna. Everything was delicious and came with MORE BREAD. YAY! Much came home with us but it all was enjoyed by lunchtime today. Delicious. For dessert, my mom will always bring something from her own freezer. Some restaurants may frown on this, but our server brought us plates and forks, a knife for cutting the small cake, and even 2 little candles to blow out and the lighter to light them. So sweet. She also brought us a happy birthday decorated plate of little canolis, which were much better than that store bought cake. Lol Can't wait to return, especially for drinks and appetizers. There is a beet and burrata salad I've got my eye on! (I can't believe I didn't take any other photos)

They said they were pizza (made sense since it was NYE) and I waited to pick it up. Now, I'm born and raised in the Bx, NY. Home of the best pizza in the world. The pizza here at Palermo's is good. Too thick for me; but they have a nice flavor profile in the sauce. I'm sure the pie is even better fresh out of the oven. The cheese lovers calzone tasted even better. My only issue with that, was the crust was too thin. They mixed the two up. Haha. They could have put two containers of sauce in the box with the calzone so if you order it to take home ask for the extra sauce. I look forward to going back and dining in. Eating the pie fresh out of the oven and some of their other dishes as well. Definitely recommend.

Fortunately, our grandson had a soccer game in LaGrange and that put us right where we needed to be. First impression? Waite staff was wearing white shirts and black slacks. This ain't Fazoli's. Our waiter, Robert, took our drink order and brought us freshly backed cheese bread served with a side of marinara. The bread was excellent (almost too good) and the marinara was full flavored without the heavy sweetness so many sauces rely on. My wife ordered cheese ravioli and I went with an Italian meatball calzone. Both dishes were beautifully plated. The Stromboli was almost intimidating, so I immediately split it in two knowing half was heading home. My wife couldn't finish her serving of ravioli. The ravioli was well filled and the sauce was outstanding. My Stromboli was heavy on the melted cheese to the point it was difficult to find the meatballs. But what really stood out,aside from flavor and sauce (on the side) was the dough. Light, just the right amount of crisp without reminding you of a burnt pizza crust. Service was outstanding. Robert was attentive without being obtrusive. Pricing is reasonable, with a nice mix of prices for any budget. Palermo's is upscale dining at modest prices and well worth a visit.
