    This place is hidden gem! First prices are adorable couldn't believe how cheap the meals were they were so cheap we went with the house made sangria.. wow the rolls and wine so good The eggplant parm was ok not my fav but we also had the chicken Florentine was amazing worth the trip to go back just for this dish

    Meat ball sub with fries

    Wonderful late lunch early dinner. Conor took great care of us. Stopped in 4pm on Saturday and within the hour, they had a wait. Even though Conner got slammed, he still took care of us and made us welcome. . We stick with our favorites, broccoli & mushroom calzone and meat ball sub. Plenty for leftovers.

    FIRST TIME AND THE LAST TIME‼ The wife and I stopped to have dinner today 7/20/25 around 3 o'clock We asked the hostess to be seated at a booth and was denied a booth not by just one of the hostess but also another hostess. With several booths being empty probably 6 or more. We were seated at a table with an empty booth 3 feet away and our server was waiting on us and a couple sitting at a booth 4 feet from our table. I couldn't understand any logic about this so I question our server about the reason we were denied a booth and she couldn't believe that they would not sit us at a booth. We were seated about 4 feet from a table of about 20 people in their party which was very loud. I was ready to walk out and just leave but the wife wanted to give it a try so we sat down, being very frustrated at seeing all of the empty booths... We both ordered the Lasagna and it was very bland lacking seasoning, the wife and I both agreed, Olive Garden has them beat by a long shot... The only thing good was our server (Jenn) she was awesome she kept apologizing and said that was wrong, and I told her that I would not be back again because of the bad experience, and she apologized again and asked us to please come back Jenn is someone that the management ought to recognize how professional she is and with very good people skills. We will not be back due to the unpleasant experience... FIRST TIME AND THE LAST TIME‼ BiBa's Chattanooga, TN. Location.

    Service is always gr8! We love to order the Calzones. This is the Five cheese add pepp! Delicious garlic knots and Greek salad for the win!

    We're visiting the Chattanooga area and we're looking for a place to get some pizza. We went here because the menu was more affordable than the popular Lupi's. Glad we did! The dinner rolls they serve are amazing! (And free). I opted out of pizza and went with the highly recommended Stromboli and was not disappointed. Best I've ever had; hands down! My wife had the chicken Florentine which was also very good and delicious. We had a cannoli for desert which was a perfect was to finish it off. Great service and a decent atmosphere. I would definitely come back!

    When I'm visiting Mom, this is one of our go tos. Great food, huge portions of great food, consistent prices - all the reasons why. For dinner, she loves the eggplant rotini dish. Whether in their cozy dining room or on the couch at home with takeout, BiBa's food is delicious Italian! Last weekend, Mom and I enjoyed huge portions of eggplant over rotini and spinach ravioli in Alfredo sauce. And soft, yummy little rolls! We saved the salads that came with dinner for lunch the next day. And saved room for the biggest cannolis ever! Another easy choice for a great meal experience with Mom.

    Excellent service throughout the meal. Full bat for those that like to nibble and drink. Lot of pasta choices along with pizzas and calzones. Full size booths and several tables to seat four or more. Food was excellent! Cannolis were so delicious!!

    Rolls

    Stopped in for Sunday lunch. Started with some mozzarella cheese sticks which was served with a warm marinara. The cheese sticks were pretty standard, but the marinara sauce was flavorful. I wanted Chicken Parmesan and the waitress suggested I try the alfredo sauce instead of the marinara, so I did...which made waaayyyy to rich! I added some of the marinara sauce to try and cut through the richness. Don't get me wrong the flavor was good and the alfredo had a good consistency, but four bites was all I could do. They also served garlic rolls which were served fairly warm and complimented the entree. Good service and not too crowded for Sunday lunch hour.

    Outstanding salad!

    It is a large open restaurant, so it's a little noisy, but their food is good. The portions were just a little small.

We went on a Monday night and it was pretty crowded but we were seated quickly. They give each table a big plate of bread with butter, which was delicious and a nice treat. I ordered the arancini to start with. I love arancini, and so many restaurants in Atlanta put meat in them. These were SO good, maybe my favorite arancini that I've had recently. Good ratio of risotto to cheese and nice and crispy. The sauce that came with them was really good too. I wish you got more for the cost, but it was comparable to every restaurant. I ordered the Pomodoro al Vegetariana but subbed penne for the spaghetti (just not a fan lol). The pasta was really good and perfectly cooked. The sauce was maybe a little too garlicky? There was a good ratio of pasta to veggies. I don't like mushrooms but they blended in enough that I could eat them. My gf got the Penne Toscana because she's allergic to garlic, so this was one of the few things she could eat. (Side note, one of the other local Italian restaurants we called basically said there was nothing she'd be able to eat there.) Some of the artichoke pieces were really chewy and the dish was very oily, otherwise she enjoyed it. The inside is very nice, cozy and not stuffy. Our waitress was super sweet.

Really enjoyed co-owner Jake stopping by for a discourse on wine and music and the correlation between the two. The guy is knowledgeable and welcoming. He must be swamped but takes a few minutes to talk vino with guests. The wife and I appreciated that. I definitely recommend this place for a classy Italian meal.

    2 Star -- My Lawyer Friend and I Are Considering This a Chargeable Offense…read moreIn the legal world, there's a concept called "misrepresentation." My attorney dining companion will tell you it applies here. I've eaten lasagna on three continents. I've never once feared it. Until now. What arrived at our table was, generously speaking, a flat pancake wearing a cheese disguise -- topped with shredded beef that seemed just as confused about its life choices as the chef who plated it. Green? Green. I didn't order a lawn clipping casserole. I ordered lasagna -- the cornerstone dish, the anchor of any Italian menu worth its salt (of which this dish also needed more). Lasagna is not a canvas for creativity. It is a covenant. A sacred agreement between a restaurant and its guests that says: we know what we're doing here. This dish broke that covenant, shredded it, and apparently used it as a garnish. My recommendation? Locate the nearest Italian grandmother. Apologize to her. Take notes. Start over.

I did not say anything due to the second reason. Server didn't seem to be too keen on giving us top notch service. We have taken note that when we are a table of four, they always give us the rundown of the nightly specials. In. Great. Detail. Every time it is just the Husband and I? Nada. Nothing. Not even an introduction by the server this time. It's not the same server either. Happens with whomever we have. Seems to be something that they need to work on at this restaurant. We love this place! Watchman (our server) did a great job when it came to serving the food. But I should not have to ask about the specials nor ask for his name. We always tip more than expected, but when will servers learn that going above and beyond will get them above and beyond the expected tip? Hopefully something changes before our next visit to Chattanooga.

Showed up about 8:30 PM, had to wait for a table because the place was so incredibly dirty. The whole place looks "worn out"and little remains of its once elegant demeanor. The wait staff was young and more interested in horsing around with each other than taking care of diners. Paid $12 for 4 ounces of a very sour (!) Prosecco with a squirt of blackberry syrup at the bottom, but no straw to get to it. The fried raviolis were just cheese-filled and tasted of old oil. The salad contest consisted of whole leaves of iceberg lettuce, four slices of beets and six garbanzos. (This is for two people.) the salad dressing tasted of nothing but oil. The garlic rolls, for which I had raved to my wife, came out hard cold and stale. I ate a couple anyway thinking that the next batch would be fresh, but was told when I asked for more that they were "out." Since this was formerly a highlight of the Provino's experience this hit hard. My wife's entrée tasted burnt as as the only flavor and she refused to eat it. My eggplant Parmesan was cold inside and gelatinous, although the plate was warm.
