    Over sauced meatballs
    Barbara T.

    I think Olive Garden would have been better. The red sauce lacked flavor and they smothered it on everything. They are attached to a seafood restaurant which explains why they fail so bad on Italian. The arancini balls tasted like cheese balls and there was no rice to be seen. Was not able to eat the veal Parmesan it was so terrible. I left hungry. The service was friendly though. The smell of the restrooms in front of the restaurant was off putting.

    Our server Tamara was excellent. Answered all our questions, was super pleasant. Very good server. Sweet personality. The sauce wasn't anything special. But the ambiance and atmosphere made up for that. Always makes your meal better having a good server . Give her a high 5!

    We hadn't been here in quite awhile, so we decided to pop in. We wanted to grab a drink at the copper cellar bar before we ate & the bar is just as impressive as we remembered. The copper is gorgeous and the combo with the dark wood just screams OG class. The hosts were friendly enough when we came in & seemed efficient. Our bartenders (Skylar & Riley) were very friendly & Skylar popped right over to take our order. She was unfamiliar with the drink I ordered (Pimms Cup), but she enthusiastically said she'd go look it up to try it make it. Unfortunately, they didn't stock Pimms, but she made me a French 75 instead. We had fun at the bar and our table was ready at the cappuccino side right on time. We started with the orange & white scallops. So good! The special was wolffish with pesto & it was fresh & clean tasting. The brussel sprouts were a standout, too. Our server was nice enough, but definitely could have been more attentive. She did not check in with us very often to make sure we were all good. We enjoyed our food & the wine and when we left, we asked ourselves why we hadn't been there in so long & decided we'd be back sooner rather than later.

    This place was bussin, no cap . My grandughter is my all spirit, laugh out loud. Any ways, this food tickled my taste buds. I stole my daughters pizza, and i dont regret it. However, the gentlemen across from me was rather disrespectful, claiming we have a "reservation". He looked a lot like my fourth son and reminded me of him. Thanks for your quick service.

    Awesome atmosphere really good service. Food was amazing. We had fresh bread and oil, Orange and white scallops, charcuterie board, 16oz bone in pork chop, Baked seafood manicotti and the tiramisu The fresh bread with oil- it was awesome bread was fresh and oil with seasoning Orange and white scallops- they were really good I don't like scallops but I tired them and it was something I would order again. Charcuterie board- this was amazing I would recommend to anyone the cheeses were awesome but the jelly's it comes with to try are amazing 16oz bone in porn chop- also amazing and if you use the jelly's from the charcuterie board it has an even better flavor. This is 100% something I would order again. Baked seafood manicotti- I'm not big on seafood but this was something that I enjoyed. Tiramisu- amazing taste and the coffee taste was not to over powering it was perfect. Overall the service was awesome and the food was amazing.

    I ordered from The copper cellar menu and my wife ordered the wild mushroom ravioli from cappuccinos. My steak was perfect and her ravioli was so unique but delicious! Connor was an awesome server to make everything even better!

    Cappuccino's Restaurant of Knoxville has the best signature dessert menu. I'm a huge fan of their Lemon Mascarpone Cream Cake with balsamic blueberry sauce. The chef at Cappuccino's specializes in creating the perfect dessert for taste and texture.

    Service is good. Table bread is good. The rest is consistently bad. I had the lasagna with bolognese sauce which was supposed to a popular menu item. But it was so gross. It came out watery, flavorless and the noodles were undercooked. And it was huge. A huge plate of yuck. My dinner date ordered a prime rib sandwich and we were horrified at the slice of fat that was served in the sandwich. There was like 15 ounces of fat and 1 ounce of beef in the cut of meat. Who runs the kitchen, man? I would be embarrassed to serve this in a sandwich. It's too bad. The interior is gorgeous. And the wine isn't half bad. No way I'll come back. I'm not paying for bad food again.

    Pork chop - best around!

    1/2 My fiancé and I…read morerandomly decided to try Altruda's for a date night, and I wanted to love it so badly because the atmosphere is absolutely a 10/10. The second you walk in, it feels like you've stepped into a little restaurant in Italy. It genuinely gave me Lady and the Tramp sharing spaghetti vibes. Cozy, romantic, intimate and completely my kind of atmosphere. Unfortunately, the food didn't live up to the setting for us. We both had water, so I can't speak to the wine or cocktail selection. My fiancé ordered the lasagna, and I ordered the rigatoni with basil. I'll admit I didn't realize the rigatoni was literally pasta with oil and basil no marinara, no cheese, just a LOT of basil. And when I say a lot...I mean a lot. Neither of us really enjoyed our entrées, although we did eat them halfway. The salad was a disappointment. The lettuce seemed old and was extremely limp, and the chickpeas were soggy and tasted like they had been sitting in the dressing for quite a while. Nothing tasted particularly fresh. Overall, I'd give Altruda's 2.5 stars. The atmosphere alone makes me want to love this place because it is SO my vibe, but ultimately I'm going to a restaurant for the food, and ours just didn't hit. Maybe we ordered the wrong things, but based on this visit, I loved where I was sitting a whole lot more than what I was eating.

    I'll be altruistic and give Altruda's 5 stars for the overall experience. We had great service and…read moreI love how the tables are segmented off into different "rooms" which makes the ambiance more intimate and quieter. The meals came out with a family style salad, which included neat toppings such as beets. The rolls doused in cooked garlic might be some of my favorite bread from any restaurant. Our server was prompt and did a great job anticipating our needs. I ordered the veal canzanese, which is breaded veal in a red wine sauce with mushrooms, ham, and cheese. My mom ordered the same dish but with chicken. Literally could not tell the difference between the chicken and veal. While the sauce tasted fine it's not a good idea to dowse a breaded meat in sauce because they were extremely soggy. I probably wouldn't order the veal again. I enjoyed how the meat sauce for the spaghetti had parsley in it - made it taste different from other bolognese. However, the meatballs, though large, were dry and bland as all get out. Some of the driest meatballs I've had in a while. Altruda my word, I'll give them 5 stars for the overall experience. Service 5, ambiance 5, and food 3.5.

Highly recommended Pulpo (grilled octopus) - a tad overcooked but not too bad. Focaccia bread w/ Ricotta cheese - yummy. The only sad part was when our waiter took the Ricotta away before we can scraped off every little bit of cheese from the container without us realizing it. Pasta carbonara- barely any pancetta but yummy. Pasta bolognese- I am not a fan of bolognese. Gnocchi- soft and fluffy pillows but sauce is alright. Desserts: Pistachio gelato- homemade and delicious Tiramisu- ok but I personally prefer ones with more espresso and alcohol.

At no point was this communicated during their reservation confirmation call and in fact, the corporate manager, Monica Green, actually explicitly directed her staff NOT to tell diners of the AC not working (as told to me by an unnamed employee). You can imagine our surprise, and sweaty discomfort, as my group of 16 showed up for our reservation and the internal temperature of the restaurant easily exceeded 85 degrees, making dining there completely out of the question as the heat/ humidity was unbearable. What a slimy bait and switch tactic and talk about an unbelievably shortsighted business mindset. I organize dinners, meetings and events for a large company in the Eastern Tennessee area. Not only will this restaurant never make a dime from me or any of my colleagues, but we will tell everyone we know about this horrible experience and the deceitful tactics of management. We completely understand that the AC going out is out of management's control but intentionally not informing diners of the intolerable temperature was a calculated and deliberate choice. What a shame. Best of luck to you, Monica, you're going to need it if this is how you run a business.

We arrived on a Sunday evening and were promptly seated. Our waiter was friendly and attentive. We ordered a deep dish pizza with pepperoni and bolognese for entrees. For appetizers we ordered fried ravioli and garlic knots. Mysteriously, I am the only one in my family that appreciates a good garlic knot. The waiter voiced his approval of the order for the bread. He was right!! The garlic knots were great. They were light and fluffy and so delicious. The ravioli was good but not a stand out. The entrees were a mix. The pizza was outstanding. The pie was not heavy and the ingredients were top notch. The bolognese was another thing entirely. It was brought out soupy. We have had bolognese in a lot of places and they are different to a degree...not soupy like this. The pasta was out of a box. Once you have had homemade pasta, factory made pasta is easy to tell. Finally, Gavino's did not have cappuccino or any coffee at all!! We were surprised...we looked around at the wonderful Italian decor, the red and white plaid tablecloths, the full Italian dessert menu and could not believe the restaurant did not have some kind of coffee, Italian or otherwise! To our waiter's credit, he did offer to make some especially for us but that's not the point. An Italian joint should have some Italian coffee. We left without ordering dessert, which is a rarity. But the lack of coffee killed the vibe. We did bring the pizza home and we ate every slice of it over the next few days. So, go for the pizza and garlic knots and bring your cappuccino with you. ;)
