We went here to dine in after seeing a movie at the MJR Troy. My husband found it online and based on the reviews, we gave it a chance. This little place that has less than a handful of tables, because its carry out business was super busy while our hour plus there, was fantastic. Our meal started with warm, wrapped in foil rolls that were scrumptious. The cream of broccoli soup was delicious. It was blended with carrots (and probably other veggies) and a lot of broccoli. The portion of Eggplant Parmesan served on top of spaghetti that I ordered was huge. Prices were so reasonable, especially for the large servings. Atmosphere was friendly and we spoke to a couple sitting at another table who were also there for the first time, also came in based on the reviews they read, and really liked their food. The employee behind the counter who took our order, brought us the rolls and dishes, was super nice and very appreciative of our tip. We are definitely going back! read more

There is no doubt why this restaurant has such a great reviews, the food is really good. Lots of standouts, but for me sauce is particularly delicious. It's rich and tangy and you can tell a lot of care goes into it. We've tried many things, from the lasagna to the meatballs and it's all outstanding. Everything is very fresh and well prepared. We've only done takeout, but it's been outstanding. Do yourself a favor and give them a try. read more

Have heard a lot of hype about this place and see a long line every Sunday night. Decided to try it for lunch and got a chicken parm sub. It was okay was surprised to find pieces of chicken tendon in it. Overall it was okay, I liked the bread but maybe not the sauce. They gave a random bag of chips but I didn't get to pick the flavor which was strange. It was also a little off putting that the person at the counter was sneezing all over himself. If you work in food service stay home when you're sick. Will try it again sometime for dinner. read more

We ordered 2 pizzas to go so my thoughts on ambiance are non-existent. Service was fine. But the pizzas were bland and worse than cooking a frozen pizza at home. I don't understand the hi ratings for this place. Ate a half of the first pizza and threw out the other pizza and a half. read more

Wow, what a gem. More people need to go try this place, only 90 some reviews is a shock. This place is incredible, very fresh food, serving size is incredible for the price. Hands out best Italian place for a quick bite and much better the local chain or sit down places. Seems most people do carry out, they only have 3 tables for dine in. The owner/ cashier was super nice and friendly. Only down side: given it's not a full dine in place you don't get someone waiting your table. Definitely going again and you should go try it today! read more

Okay, I heard a lot about the lasagna in this place. I went on the app and was able to order for a specific time which was very nice. When I got there my order was ready, nice and hot. For a small to go restaurant is decorated very nicely and I must say that it was extremely clean in the carryout area. Now for the lasagna, EXCELLENT ! LET ME SAY THEY AIN'T LYING.. LOL! It was delicious and served with an awesome garlic roll. I also got a side salad that was delicious, unlike other places, the salad actually had lots of veggies. It isn't just lettuce and a widget tomato, good job. read more

It was not that good, to claim to be authentic Italian food. The tomatoes were not cooked, they were just cut up and put in my pasta. When people make Alfredo with pasta and tomatoes, they normally sauté or stew the tomatoes. Not add them to the Alfredo sauce raw. read more

I came across this spot on Uber Eats. I ordered based off the good ratings and was not disappointed. I've since ordered and picked up several more times. Everything is always very good. My husband loves Chicken Parmesan and says theirs is very good. The sauce is also excellent. As well as the salads. Nice & fresh. The inside of the restaurant is small with only a couple tables but it's very clean. I highly recommend! read more

The food here is absolutely amazing perfectly seasoned, fresh, and full of balanced flavor. Even the broccoli was incredible, with just the right crunch and seasoning. The fresh house bread melts in your mouth, and the chicken was tender, juicy, and perfectly cooked. read more

Stopped here last night on our way to MJR. Kind of quick order Italian. My husband and I shared the shrimp scampi and some cheese bread. Definitely was more than enough for two to share. The cheese bread had a nice cook/crispiness to it and the marinara was good. The pasta was cooked perfectly and I loved the peppers in the scampi. I did feel for me that the dishes could have used a little bit more salt/flavor. But overall it was good and I would stop in again when in the area. read more

It used to be good but not anymore. The Tuscan soup that used to be wonderful no longer is as they now use hamburger not Italian sausage like it used to be. The Italian sub is no longer on a wonderful bun but some other type of flat bread. Last two times there very disappointed so will no longer be going back. read more

I had been wanting to try this place for a while and was unfortunately disappointed. Maybe it was because I got carried out, but my fettuccine with palomino sauce was incredibly dry, it appeared as if it had been reheated it was that dry. And the chicken parmesan had an unpleasant chewy texture. On the plus side my husband enjoyed his lasagna. read more

I had to carry out, it was for the eggplant Parmesan and their chocolate mousse cake. The eggplant Parmesan you couldn't even find the eggplant in it. There were meatballs in it, which had a very strange taste to them. It definitely wasn't all beef. It was also very dry very little sauce. The chocolate mousse cake does not look like what they advertise. It's a third size and there's no cake to it. It's all chocolate mousse there's no substance. read more

I'm going to make this as short as I can to explain everything. Unfortunately I was very ill on my fiance's birthday. I couldn't drive. I couldn't even get out of bed. So the one thing I wanted to do for him was order him the best Italian food I could think of. The first thing that popped in my head was of course here ... Needless to say, this place will never receive my business again. I had it door dashed and underneath the special request which they include on the bottom and ask if you would like utensils, special allergy requirements, etc. I listed how important this dinner was. I even ordered a cake for his birthday and I even put in the notes that it was my fiance's birthday. Please make it extra special. I will even pay more if I have to. I've done this many times with other businesses and never seem to have a problem before. Usually they go above and beyond to make a special day special. Not here. Not only did my dinners cost over $50 for two people and that's including buy one get one free dinner. That is absolutely ridiculous. The ravioli was pretty basic. Bland and wasn't stuffed enough and drenched in sauce. The roles that I used to love were hard as a rock. I couldn't even bite through them. And the cake that I had ordered never even came. Even though I mentioned several times how important the cake was. They didn't forget about the cake because guess what? They charged my credit card. No problem for it. As soon as it arrived. I called the restaurant and she proceeded to apologize and she said to me that she's staring at the cake right now. Are you kidding me? Nice way to rub it in. I could barely understand her and I requested a refund and told her how important this dinner was and how unfortunate and sad I was that they messed it up and messed up his day because who has a birthday without cake!!! Not only did I request a refund on my cake that I never got but they still haven't refunded my money and I've called everyday so far and nothing. She proceeded to tell me the next day that she told the owner. Well, if this is true, wouldn't an owner of a business reach out to a customer that is absolutely disgusted in their establishment. No not them. They could care less. Not to mention the long hair that has been in my food from them on more than two occasions. They even posted pictures of this lady's hair inside the beef patties as she's mixing them. It was gross on their Facebook page. Not a really good promotion for anybody. This place is nothing like what it used to be. I'm going to stick to what I know.... and that is not here but I recommend Luigi's, Andiamo's and Mr. Pauls some of the best you could ever have. But as for here I urge you to please go somewhere else. They did absolutely nothing to fix my issue. My problem or refund my money. I can't think of anything nice to say about this place anymore. This place should be out of business and I hate to say that but it's true. As for the ambience, I felt like I was doing nothing but inconvenience the staff for ordering food from them. It's really sad when you have a business and serve customers, but you never take care of the customer. read more

Incredible service. Amazing spaghetti I love this restaurant. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Looking for quick dinner after Troy kid state fair. Was in a caloric deficit for the day and wanted something fatty and boy was this great. Perfectly baked chicken Parm on top of a bed of spaghetti with alfredo. Cheesy. Fatty. Savory. Two pieces of toasted bread. Hit the spot. We did eat in but just know if you do that there is only about two tables and depending on the time will be a line of people which could make for a less than perfect dining experience in this small hole in wall Italian restaurant. Service was good given how busy they were. read more

We ordered about $150 worth of delivery from here about two weeks ago and I wasn't really impressed. We have a couple people in our friend group that go crazy over this place and always talk about it so we decided to try them out. Everyone picked out their own meals, some that I remember were: chicken scampi (mine), ravioli, pesto Alfredo, pot roast, gnocchi, and a few sides of salads soups and meatballs. we all sampled from each other and not one dish was delicious or memorable in any way. The pot roast wasn't even pot roast it was more like shaved meat in tons of gravy with the sides of veggies. Chicken scampi didn't taste anything like a scampi and was lacking flavor overall. I had to add salt and garlic to it myself. The pesto Alfredo and gnocchi were the best of everything we tried but that wasn't really saying much. Portions are a good size, food arrived warm and delivery was quick! Flavor seemed to be the biggest issue for me, not sure I'd be back. read more

If I could give half a star I would. This is not the owners that were here before. We ordered a pizza anticipating the same hand tossed pizza we had in the past, instead we received a preform Chucky Cheese special. The pizza was tasteless, gummy and just bad. I'm not sure what happened to the other people that ran the place, but it is safe to assume that they are gone long gone. Stay away. read more

Absolutely amazing home cooked Italian food. Ordering from Giuliano's once a week is a must for our family. Their pizzas taste similar to those I tasted in Italy. Love their baked ziti. Service is amazing. You can never go wrong with Giuliano's if you are craving Italian. read more

This was a great food, good quality. We ended up picking up the food and bringing it back home. They packed the food well, flavors were great! And lots of food for the price! The bread was tasty!!! We will definitely be ordering from there in the future! read more

This is a good addition to the area for affordable and good Italian food. I ordered chicken Parmesan with fettuccine in palomino sauce. I also tried the green beans and pesto on penne. The texture is great and the flavor is great. It is way better than maggiano's or Carraba's. The portion size is good and the ingredients seem fresh. I will definitely try the place again! read more

Spaghetti and meatballs is absolutely delicious. Every time I go, i eat lunch out daily in only 2 or 3 spots in my territory, and this joint has got the goods. read more

My wife has been desperate for Chicken Parm since we moved to MI in 2011. Giuliano's gets its right! Other highlights include the pizza, chicken sub, minestrone soup and Italian meatloaf. All flavorful and first-rate. And the staff is super nice. They really appreciate your business and make sure you want to come back soon - VERY SOON! read more

I ordered the shrimp and chicken Alfredo pasta because "who can get Alfredo wrong?" Big mistake! The sauce had broken down and you can see it was separated. I hardly ever give bad reviews but this was not good. Mind you, it was $24 on Uber eats! I was so disappointed. read more

We tried Giuliano's because our usual, family-owned Italian restaurant had an hour wait for carry-out. This place was fast but its food was nothing special. It had a corporate, mass-produced taste. The side salads had lettuce that seemed old, not crisp. The bread seemed dry and tough. Next time, we'll wait for the real deal instead of settling for this. read more

First time getting this got carry out delivered cause I was not ready to leave my bed. First things I will say was this was such an amazing amount of food for the price and the food was still hot when delivered they did not hold back. I ordered the pot roast and this was perfect for a nice cold evening, tasted as good as my mothers. The lasagna my boyfriend got was super delicious the only downfall was we found a piece of plastic inside the lasagna. Overall very good but the piece we found was why the review is only 4 stars. read more

Food was okay, the caprese flatbread was very good. Management might want to change the boxing for a few take out items, the aluminum box with plastic lids become overheated & melt the top plastic into the food so you're stuck picking broken off pieces of plastic from your food. read more

I haven't eaten here in person, however I did order the veggie pizza and baked zitti and I have to say both were incredibly delicious! I was a little conflicted because of some of the reviews on here, but the food was well packaged and tasted delicious. I will be ordering from Here again. read more

How this place has 4.5 stars is genuinely insane to me. It almost makes me think that these are paid actors. My mom and I tried out the place last night after seeing it when we'd go to guanaco for the past couple years. We got the Alfredo and I got a Tuscan soup. The Alfredo legitimately tastes like a stouffer's frozen pasta . The most tasteful part of the pasta is the bacon which I added for 3 dollars. For 15 dollars you could just go to Olive Garden or carabbas down the street. The Tuscan soup legitimately looked like water, had no flavour and was generally unpleasant. By far the worst Italian food I've ever had in the United States. I studied in the UK and had authentic Italian food several days a week, this bastardised version doesn't even deserve the name. Avoid and go to Wendy's or Taco Bell if you're hungry. read more

I've ordered a few times from here, and it's always been great. I recently ordered the spaghetti and meatballs, mini antipasto salad, and carrot cake. All amazing. But, to my suprise, they threw in a free sample of a new dish! How awesome of them! read more

Despite only having three tables, one beside the restroom, I LOVED THE FOOD!! The spaghetti and meatballs with the garlic knots/bread was super great, but the Baked Ziti was the best I've ever had. And the Chicken Marsala was also the best and richest mushroom sauce I've ever had! read more

Quaint restaurant with three tables where you order at the register and it's brought to you. Togo orders and a ringing bell on the door are constant as food goes out the door. And all we talked about was how amazing the food was. Especially the Chicken Marsala and Baked Ziti. read more
