    Carbonara and ragu
    Holly D.

    I am a stickler for Italian food, so take this with a grain of salt: the food was good, almost like something you'd get in Italy, but it just tasted a little bland compared to real Italian food. However, I can completely understand the appeal of the restaurant. The ambiance was very traditional Italian, the service was great, and we had a lovely time. Pro tip: there are LONG wait times and no reservations. We got there at 4:45/4:50 in order to get seated at 5. The restaurant was full by 5:10. If you don't want to eat at 5, a 7pm is probably your next best bet.

    I'm sad that I was a little disappointed in the experience here. It was way too hot and since the air conditioner at my mom and sister's house was out we were not about to cook in the house. I chose the puttanesca, which I thought was really quote good. The portion size was good as well. I'd wanted the pasta all' Adamo, but as I suspected the sauce was made ahead and they couldn't take out the mushrooms (makes sense, but I had to ask!). My sister had the cappella di vescovo (aka Bishop hats) and I thought it was REALLY good, even if she wasn't the biggest fan of it. Though my puttanesca was good, I would order the cappella di vescovo if I we came here again. I didn't try mom's lasagna, but she was happy with it. They also had a kids menu which I was thankful for given the menu isn't on the cheap side. My favorite part of the meal may actually have been the appetizers. The roasted garlic with cambozola was SO good. I know that people roast whole garlic heads, but I never understood what made that special (or how to do it correctly, obviously) until we had this, and it was so good. Our other appetizer was the bruschetta mista, with which we chose to have all five of the possible toppings. I love tapenade and this was no exception, but the cannellini bean topping may have been my favorite. It was delicious and made me think I need to figure out what I can do to make a some sort of appetizer from the beans. Service was just ok. The server didn't come to check on us very often. We were indoors, which was nice since it was so hot, but it was kind of dim. I think it's been mentioned before but the decor is so outdated; it's like what you might expect from an Olive Garden or something with the wallpaper and stuff. It's just kind of corny. We also weren't offered any bread to start though it seemed like maybe other tables were given complimentary--it's ok, just was weird. Maybe what was the most... odd, I guess, is that they brought a cup of dried grated parmesan, a la Kraft, and that just seemed cheap for a restaurant that's supposed to be this caliber. Parking is not the best, though there's a few along the east side of the building. Street parking and possibly in the mechanic lot to the west of the restaurant (unless my sister was just playing with fire).

    I found Beppe & Gianni's on a few YouTube recommendations for places to try in Eugene. The location is close to the university campus. I believe there was maybe a 30 minute wait so we killed a little bit of time at the cafe across the street. The inside of the restaurant was nice, the decor was like we were in someone's house but with about 20 other tables around. I'd say it was cozy and comfortable set up for a place that was really busy. The food was great so it made for a great date night place.

    Looking for tasty Italian in Eugene, OR? Definitely make a stop at Beppe & Gianni's Trattoria. This cozy, charming spot offers a straightforward yet flavorful menu that gives you a real glimpse of Italy--fresh pastas, rich sauces, and classic Italian favorites done right. Insider tip: Go early! They don't take reservations, and seating is limited. It fills up fast, and for good reason. There's street parking nearby, and the staff is warm, welcoming, and attentive. Come. Eat. Enjoy.

    Wry good food with great service and atmosphere. Establishment was clean and it's always great to have a manager swing by and ask how things are/were. Worth the stop, just get there early and get in line as they don't take reservations.

    Lasagna and carbonara for dinner.

    I had heard all of the talk about this place...so wife and I decided to stop in and try this place on a trip to Eugene. It was pretty busy for a weekend -- but we were able to get a table rather quickly. Service was pleasant and the ambiance is nice..it is an older house converted to a restaurant and very quaint. I ordered the lasagna and my wife ordered the carbonara -- food came out hot and well presented. But the meal itself was not overwhelmingly. Both of us agreed that the hype at this place seemed a bit overrated...don't get me wrong...it was not a bad meal but I guess I had heard so much talk about this place we expected a bit more.

    Utensils touching a table. No table cloth, no napkin underneath
    Victoria R.

    My bf & and I are visiting Oregon for a Theo Von show; so we're trying some food places while out here, we're huge foodies from the bay in CA. The presentation of all our dishes is excellent. The food was just good, truly it didn't suffice my standards. However, I was quite appalled by how the utensils were touching the table with no placement of napkins under them; for the whole restaurant... it's quite unsanitary. The service was mid. My bf and I decided to try 2 appetizers and a dessert dish, with no interest of ordering an entree and our server was openly offended by it; I feel it was very unprofessional of him. The ambiance was quite stale, with no music playing, just overlapping of others talking. Music is a great addition to any restaurant.

    Dessert Menu: Tiramisu and Dessert Special of the night
    Denzell S.

    If ever you are in Eugene for dinner, definitely try Beppe & Gianni's Trattoria. Definitely prepare yourself for the carb load up. We started with their Roasted Garlic with Cambozola which had a whole roasted garlic, melted cambozola cheese served with their bread. We then ordered an array of pasta dishes- ravioli house special, cappelli di vescovo (bishop hats), and pasta all' adamo. The food was delicious. The pastas were fresh. Definitely order some wine to pair with your lovely entrees. For desserts we ordered their tiramisu and chocolate dessert which I completely forgot the name but both were so decadent and definitely worth trying.

    Like having a delicious Italian meal in a family kitchen. Service was excellent, and the food was delicious.

    Finally had the chance to try beppe & Gianni. Started off a bit rocky when we walked in. There was no host to greet you and the staff were just walking past us. We finally grabbed someone who was the host and got seated. Our server was Jenna she was attentive and checked in on us throughout our visit. The food was delicious, very fresh ingredients and seasoned nicely. We got the Panna cotta for dessert which was a pistachio flavor unfortunately, the vanilla really overpowered the flavor, and I got very little hints of pistachio.

    Spaghetti Carbonara
    Carla M.

    We stopped in for dinner and overall had a good time! I ordered the spaghetti carbonara, and while the flavor was absolutely on point - creamy, well-seasoned, with nice pancetta bits - I personally found the portion of noodles a bit overwhelming. I would've loved fewer noodles that's for sure, and maybe a bit more richness or depth to the sauce to balance it all out. Still tasty, just slightly unbalanced for my taste. My husband had the lasagna, which he enjoyed. It was hearty and satisfying, although the tomato sauce leaned a little strong. Nothing major, just a bit overpowering in parts. The portions overall are very generous, which some may love, but I/we found it to be a little too much - especially for Italian food (pasta coma). Next time, I'll try to go for something smaller or ask if there's a lighter portion available. The service was fantastic - attentive, friendly, and welcoming from start to finish. The ambiance was a bit loud for my taste, and I do wish they offered a broader drink selection - something beyond just beer and wine would really elevate the experience. That said, it's a solid spot with good food, and we'll definitely be back. Just with a game plan for ordering next time.

    We came here on a weekday evening. It was busy but there were still some tables available. Speaking of the tables, they are crammed in there tight. Hard to be comfortable and not be hearing everything your neighbor table is saying, let alone sitting on top of them. The server was super quick and helpful! They don't have a kids menu or kids cups so I probably wouldn't recommend for kids, although they were able to make "kids versions" of pasta dishes and had high chairs. Our kids enjoyed it. We ordered the bread (wonderful but wish it were free), caprese salad (delicious), the Caesar salad (average), and carbonara pasta. We split the carbonara between two adults and it was more than enough- very rich but good. The kids split the butter and cheese fettuccine (not on the menu, but the server said it was an option) and we had a lot left (kids filled up on bread). Overall pretty good but not sure I'd revisit. Husband really liked it though so extra star.

    Special of the day - artichokes, tomatoes, panchetta

Not outdated it's dialed. No gimmicks, no nonsense just consistency that hits every single time. Now let me get this straight the calzones here? Hands down, some of the best I've ever had. Packed right, cooked right, everything balanced the way it should be. This isn't some rushed, thrown-together side item this is the kind of dish that makes you stop mid-bite and go, "Yeah... this is why this place is still around." I'll be honest, I read a few reviews beforehand and thought, "Did something change?" Nope. Walked in and it was exactly what I hoped for. Same classic feel, same solid food, same dependable experience. That's the beauty of Mozzi's it doesn't chase trends, it outlasts them. Value? Strong. Ambiance? Classic, comfortable, no-frills in the best way. Service? Locked in. Friendly, efficient, and they know what they're doing. This is the kind of place families grow up on. Team dinners, birthdays, random weeknights that turn into memories it's all baked into the walls. You don't stay in business this long without doing something very right. So let me make this real simple: If you're looking for an Italian restaurant in Eugene this is the place. Don't overthink it. Just go.

Overall, the ambiance was nice, the service was okay and the food was not completely disappointing. That is about it. I would go back if someone invited me but I will not have this on my list of places to revisit any time soon.

So why just the three-star rating? Lemme tell you about a pet peeve of mine: automatic gratuities. Tips added on to the total without any indication to the patron. Don't get me wrong-- I completely understand for larger parties, like six or more. I've spent months/years as a waiter so I understand the frustration of working hard to please a table only to get a 10% tip. As a now-former waiter, I try to tip generously. What I don't understand or expect is an automatic gratuity for small group, especially when I am a solo diner. Just me. Party of one. With minimal indication on the bill as to the added tip. After my last time at H-N-I-P I got the check, added on my own tip and paid. Then I pondered on the total. It seems funky -- why is it more than just the pizza and salad I ate... there's no tax in Oregon... Whuh? I look more closely at the bill and see that they already added on a tip...? I guess they just got a nearly 50% tip from me. Which might be the last tip because it's seriously irritating. In time I'll probably have a pizza craving that only they can fill, and go back. I'll look more closely at the menu to see if and where the automatic gratuity is mentioned. Enjoy the pizza. Beware the automatic gratuity.
