    This was the shrimp and fake scallops entree that I ordered that was extremely fishy. Disgusting
    Shari H.

    I'd give it a negative 5 if I could! I ordered a shrimp and scallop dinner. It was extremely fishy tasting and I told the owner Jason who said he wouldn't do anything about it! Wowza!!! I would never eat here again. Then on top of it they charged an $8 fee to use our credit card! Cheapo! Disgusting I will never eat here again EVER!!! Unbelievable! I eat at very upscale restaurants and this one is an absolute NO!! Yuck he said I ate half my entree. No I ate most of the noodles and left the majority of the shrimp and fake lobster. I tried to be polite and not say anything initially but it was so disgusting I would never have brought any of the leftovers home. I eat shrimp and scallops all the time at fine dining restaurants in AZ and this was disgusting. Shrimp is always my favorite but I would give a negative 5 for taste and poor management by the owner Jason! We spent $163 at his restaurant and he wasn't willing to do anything about his disgusting shrimp/fake scallops entree! Beware of this place! Ugh

    We went here for our anniversary dinner and we really enjoyed it! The flavor of our dishes really stood out to us! The waitress was nice and service was fast! I also liked how it felt nicer and was busy too! Will go back again soon!

    Excellent customer service and the food is always amazing. I've been to Bello Cucina occasionally and their menu is very expansive with something for everyone. I have gone for date nights and love being seated outdoors when the weather is nice, it's a really nice seating area. I highly recommend the Lobster Mac N Cheese (I order it with no bacon), their Bang Bang Pow and Chicken Parmesan are also both delicious. If you like pizza, they make a great margherita pizza as well. The customer service has also always been really great, with very friendly staff. From my many experiences at Bello Cucina, I have nothing but positive feedback from me and my family members. Give it a try for a delicious Italian dining experience!

    Food was fabulous! Atmosphere was great but the food!!!! Our server was attentive and very helpful when I was having a hard time deciding... (typical) The owner/Chef takes great pride in what he serves.

    This place had a great $ 11 All you can eat pasta bar with fresh salad and garlic bread . It was very good mostly loved the rigatoni boulanaise in red sauce had a black pepper kick but not over powering. The decor was very comforting like walking through the Tuscany landscapes with terracotta reds . Red encourages appetite btw.... Waitress was very helpful but not overly in our face etc . Will be going back but getting something from the expansive menus. The owner is also the chef ....

    I went here with 3 friends on a Friday night a couple of weeks ago. We arrived earlier than our reservation and were seated promptly. The bar to the right looked really nice and fancy. The restaurant side isn't too big but you don't feel like you're sitting on top of your neighbor. I look forward to the outdoor seating area to be opened with the warmer weather. They brought fresh bread and olive oil to our table. I ordered a pizza and my friends got various pasta dishes. Overall, everyone enjoyed their meals. I will say though that I'm disappointed in the vegetarian pasta dish options. I only saw the tortellini as an option. You would think there would be a veggie pasta dish but everything seemed to have chicken or bacon. I enjoyed the pizza but would have preferred something else. We were celebrating my birthday which was the best day but they said they could only give a dessert on your actual day so I was bummed. I also think our waitress was annoyed that we stayed so long after our meal was over. I would give them another chance but the prices are pretty steep and that's something to consider.

    Burnt ciabatta but was told by the server that I obviously don't understand cooking because that's what it's supposed to look like

    Poor service, hostile environment. We ordered the artichoke dip with ciabatta bread. When it arrived 3 of the 5 pieces were burnt. I requested the 3 pieces to be remade and that was when I was told by the server that I obviously don't understand cooking because that's how it's supposed to look. 3 out of 5 pieces burnt? If that's how it's supposed to be why are not all 5 pieces burnt? Sorry I didn't order charcoal flavoring with my artichoke dip. When I asked for the 3 burnt pieces to be remade it became hostile so I said we're done. Please bring me the check for the drinks. She tried to charge me for the appetizer we never touched and threatened to call the police if I refused to pay. So I looked up the number and called them for her. Never tried any food. The drinks were delicious but I would not recommend this place due to the hostile attitude of staff. If you look at other reviews it seems to be hit or miss however tonight was all miss.

For this reason, even though DiMaggio's was about a half mile from my hotel I decided to get it delivered. Usually when I order pizza delivered I expect it to be lukewarm or even somewhat cold, but that was not the case. My pie was piping hot. So hot it scorched the roof of my mouth (my fault). But I do fault DiMaggio's for having such delicious pizza that I couldn't stop eating or even slow down. The toppings were all fresh and bountiful. Not just a sprinkle here and there, the toppings were enough to give you a taste of everything in every bite. And I'm not a single, two or three topping kind of guy. I had Italian sausage, green peppers, mushrooms, onions and black olives. I cannot remember when I had a better pizza as of late and I had pizza in New York three weeks ago. The pic I posted only shows what is left after I inhaled the rest. I believe this will be a delicious cold pizza breakfast in the morning. I don't know if you guys are related, but DiMaggio's sure hit a home run with my order!!

It's a bit hard to see as it's tucked into a corner behind a parking garage. Follow the signage for parking. It's a nice concept - having a nice restaurant near senior housing, apartments and assisted living, so that family members have a place where they can take their loved ones for a decent meal. The atmosphere is warm and inviting with wood and stone. There are a couple of televisions, above the fireplace. There's a bar. There's a separate room, if you want a gathering space for your family for a special event. The menu is pretty extensive - burgers, wraps, breakfast, steak, chicken, salads, sandwiches, soup, and more. We ordered a Rachel sandwich and a breakfast wrap. Both were tasty enough. My fries were a bit soggy, and the crust on the marbled rye bread was overly crisp. The hashbrowns served with the wrap were nice and crisp. Our server provided attentive and friendly service. The restaurant is small and intimate. This is nice, unless you have some loud talkers seated near you (as we had). Their loud talking made it very difficult for my beloved and I to have a decent conversation and be able to hear. All in all, Drakes is a nice option to have. The food was better than I expected. I'd certainly give it another try. They do offer daily specials, and on occasion, have live music.
