I loved it food was amazing and service was impeccable. I have already recommended this place to multiple coworkers

First time here, was influenced by the ratings on google, a coworker and I went for lunch on a Monday. We ordered the following: I ordered: Half Chicken Picatta and Half Champagne Chicken- 10/10 I could not decide between the two, the server came in and solved my problem lol, they had a special where you could pick 2 items to try, best decision ever. Fried calamari- 10/10 crunchy, fresh, tasty, I walkway go for the calamari, did not disappoint. My co-worker ordered: Half Chicken Picatta a half Chicken Special- he said 10/10 same as me very flavorful, fresh. Bruschetta- 10/10 basaltic vinaigrette came in clutch, all of the flavors in the one bite will blow your mind. Overall want to give our experience a 10/10, the server was excellent, knew his menu, I believe he was also he bar tender, would definitely ask for him again, the ambience is chill, feel like home, we felt like we were eating at home. Highly recommend you try it out, thank me later. read more

Martini Monday is one of my favorites. Delicious, cold and refreshing martini's served all day. The price is discounted and the selection is great. I do think it's time for them to mix it up and add some new options. I switched it up today and selected the Raspberry Lemonade. It was perfect and tasted really good. My Sicilian Shrimp and Fettuccine Pasta was amazing as usual. It's well seasoned and spicy, but flavorful. The shrimp are cooked perfectly. Service was good my waitress was sweet and friendly. The manager is always welcoming and helpful. I left feeling happy, satisfied and full. Good food equals Good mood! Martini Mondays is a must and I will keep coming back to eat and drink. read more

Kenny's Italian Kitchen is hands down some of the best Italian food I've ever had! The service is 10/10 & easily comparable to some of the fine dining restaurants in Dallas. The portions are large & every dish is packed with flavor. Without a doubt, the most flavorful Italian food I've ever eaten! Highly recommend! read more

Kenny's martini Monday is still a vibe. The food here is always delicious. I got the meatballs and they were delicious as they always are. I got the gin and Georgia martini. It's my favorite. If you haven't had it, go next Monday! The service here is solid and the ambiance is an Italian dining experience. Kenny's is always great food and drinks. read more

Staying at a nearby hotel. (Hotel Dax is a very nice, new boutique Marriott property.) We found Kenny's via YELP - as always!! The food was outstanding - Caesar salad, fresh- baked bread, meatballs, chicken piccata, fettuccine carbonara, gnocchi and tiramisu. All items were excellent. They do something really cool and unique...you can do a half & half of any entree or appetizer. Allows you to sample more of their terrific menu items. Cali (Calihan) is an outstanding server. She was fun and helpful and very knowledgeable. One of the managers - Libby - even came by our table to chat. There's a "neighborhood joint" feel to this place. We're planning to return in the future!! read more

My friend and I came in from martini Monday and sat in Cali's section. She was super knowledgeable about the menu and gave us recommendations on which she prefers herself and what are some of the more common meals. I ended up taking her recommendation of the mushroom ravioli, which would not have been originally on my list and it turned out to be great. The food is always great here but having great service just puts a cherry on top of the experience! We sat on the patio and the guests were quite loud and there were a lot of kids as well, which increased the volume. I haven't normally seen it this loud. Inside it's much quieter and gives off a nicer vibe. For food recommendations, the chicken scallopini is my favorite, the mushroom ravioli was good as well, and my friend gets a carbonara every time. I also had the pomtini which was very tasty. read more

This was hands down the kindest service received! The restaraunt is so nice for a casual or even a bit dressy date with the dim ambiance and table candle lights. The food is definitely a comfort food spot I would come to when I have cravings or want something homemade! I came here for the first time on my birthday and got a small gift from the manager as well as a free cannoli! Will definitely come back and worth the drive from Austin :) read more

We went here for dinner on a Saturday night and I see it has been more than 10 years since my last review so it is time for an update. We had a reservation because this restaurant gets very busy. It has the feel of an old time East Coast Italian restaurant. The restaurant was clean. There is also a bar with TV and the winter Olympics were on, so it almost has a sports bar feel. But they have only bottled beer, no beers on tap. We are big fans of Kenny's restaurants. The best IMO are Wood Fired grill, Smokehouse, and East Coast pizza. As usual, service was great. We were seated and our waitress Maradith appeared very quickly. She was pleasant and efficient throughout our meal. They start you out with fresh, hot bread with butter. Delicious. While the kid had her usual spaghetti with red sauce, the wife and I split an order of bruschetta. It is very good, but beware of large pieces of garlic! I also had the Blue Cheese salad which is essentially a deconstructed wedge salad. I liked it a lot. For entrees, the wife had the seafood linguini and there were some problems. The mussels were tough and chewy to the point of inedible. They smelled fishy. The clams were also chewy. The calamari was very good though. This was a disappointment given that it was among the most expensive dishes on the menu. The wife regretted her choice. Her general rule is not to order seafood in Dallas and she wished she stuck to her rule. I really enjoyed my Bolognese. It was a large portion with a generous amount of meat. The pasta was cooked perfectly and the sauce was not acidic. I could only eat about half of it. For dessert, we shared a piece of "New York style" cheesecake. It was good, but not as good as in New York. Prices are reasonable in my opinion. Overall, except for the wife's seafood it was an enjoyable meal. read more

This place is incredible! We have been meaning to come here for a while because of all the excellent reviews and I can definitely agree that this place deserves it! I started with an espresso martini without optional burbon cold foam (which sounds amazing). Very tasty and definitely strong espresso. For apps we started with crispy arancini which came with the best red sauce I've ever had at a restaurant. (homemade) pesto sauce it also came with was a little too creamy and I didn't like it paired with the arancini. Our server gave us complementary bruschetta which was by far the best I've had in the Dallas area! Our main was the mushroom ravioli and Asiago gnocchi which was both excellent and for sure would get again. Creamy, flavorful and fresh. The truffle oil on the mushroom ravioli was my favorite. I would for sure come here again but with reservations ahead of time. An hour wait is definitely and hour wait. read more

This place was awesome! I was torn between ordering two dishes and our server recommended the option of getting half of one entree and half of another for the price of just one entree. This allowed me to get a taste of both. I was sooo happy with this because I genuinely enjoyed both meals. Food came out hot and tasted great. Worth the price I loved that the room wasn't so bright so it added to the moody ambiance. The portraits all around the walls give it a very unique vibe as well. Would highly recommend! read more

This was my first time having Italian in Texas! The ambiance was perfection. The Bartender made an exceptional craft martini & the FOOD was delicious. I had the East Coast Linguini. My friend ordered the mushroom raviolis & we shared the crab stuffed mushrooms! *drool* The service from our bartender Jaime and her barback (I wish I would have got her name) was attentive & engaging. They walked us through every question. 10/10 experience over all. read more

Kenny's Italian Kitchen is a long-standing Italian restaurant under the "Kenny" group. Known for great service, good food, and a casual atmosphere, while the menu is limited to popular dishes, you won't go wrong visiting Kenny's. My Overall Rating - 4 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Food, Return) Atmosphere - Kenny's Italian Kitchen reminds of a visit to an Italian Grandmother's house. You're greeted with a smile, there are tons of photos on the wall, and on my Sunday evening visit, it was packed. Kenny's was full of people, tons of energy, and I felt very welcome. 1 Star. Service - "Welcome, family!" were the words out of our server's mouth. While I already felt welcome, I settled in even more. Our server was super friendly, but the entire staff was equally inviting. We asked for extra bread (no problem) and our water was always filled. 1 Star. Food - Kenny's Italian Kitchen has a very good menu - but it's limited. For example, I wanted to order a Caprese Salad (a standard Italian dish), but this item is not on the menu. But that's ok, because what's on the menu is good. Really good. No Caprese? No problem! I started with the Bruschetta but instead of describing it, look at the photo and see the fresh, plump tomatoes. The Mushroom Ravioli was even better. The soft ravioli sat in a smoked gouda cream sauce with hints of smoked ham and white truffle oil. I completely devoured my dish with a satisfied smile. So, while the menu didn't have everything I wanted, what I had was excellent. 1 Star. Will I Return? - Yes. When a restaurant is packed on a Sunday night, it's gotta be good. While Kenny's isn't in my regular rotation, my experience was fantastic, and I would definitely come back. 1 Star. read more

The atmosphere felt very homey and warm. I loved all the pictures and decor. I was really excited to eat here because of the gluten-free options that they had. We got seated right away and within minutes, our waiter came and took our order. At the end the chef gave me a card with a voucher for my birthday. This you really don't see at places! The food was really good and the service was amazing. But I took off a star because the waiter brought out a bruschetta and said we should try it. This is something we did not order and so assumed it was on the house because it was given to us. But it wasn't. We were charged for that and I also ordered a glass of wine from the happy hour menu which was supposed to be $7 but got charged $12. That kinda busted my bubble. I had paid before looking at the receipt, and didn't see her after so we just left. read more

The fact you can get 2 different pastas, half and half on your plate is perfect for those wanting to try something new, going for lunch and saving the rest for dinner, or just craving pasta but can't pick which! My go to is the spaghetti and Italian sausage with vodka sauce, it's not on the menu but ask for it and they will blow your mind! It very rich and delicious. The vibe and atmosphere is very eloquent and has a traditional old school Italian vibe most place strive for. The service is top notch and always good time to be around. Be sure to check out their happy hour menu and schedule they have great deals on wine and other cocktails during the week! read more

The best bruschetta I've ever had, hands down! All of the Kenny's establishments are amazing with allergies and my gluten free boyfriend was able to get bread for this appetizer as well as sub out the gnocchi on our main course. The sauce was phenomenal! If you give them a 2 days heads up you can get anything on the menu gluten free (such as lasagna and fried calamari!) They hire the best servers and your water is never empty. It's not roomy, so expect to be more piled in with the other patrons and it's a little loud because of that ... but overall really nice place with great food! read more

We had a wonderful time with friends at Kenny's restaurant. Service was incredibly slow, but our server was kind! The hostess in the front made sure we got group pictures we liked. It was hustling and bustling inside for a Monday night- we were surprised, but it is a heavily visited area in Addison. Parking was a little tricky. My meal tasted amazing. Gnocci is one of my favorite dishes and the pesto and Asiago flavors paired well together. I chose not to have meat (vegetarian) and the sever suggested adding spinach for free- love that! However, there was only about 10-12 pieces of gnocchi in the dish. I was disappointed, as it was so good! I was delighted there was bread service (2 rounds) and they have oil and vinegar on the table (which was great)! My boyfriend and I split a cocktail , the raspberry lemonade, that was on special for $7 that evening. It was amazing and almost an icee texture! Overall, it is a good restaurant- would just love a little more! :) read more

Our first time going to Kenny's and will be back in no time! We decided to try something new for our anniversary and it didn't disappoint. Nearly every item on the menu could be modified to be gluten free and our waiter let us know next time if we called 24 hours in advance they could even do the lasagna for us. They brought out fresh bread and steaming gluten free bread to start. My boyfriend stole the gf bread because it was so good lol. We then had the mussels with white sauce (10/10). What's pretty cool is you can split the menu items 50/50 to try multiple things! Soooo good. read more

Extremely Disappointing Experience at Kenny's Italian Kitchen in Addison We had a reservation at Kenny's Italian Kitchen and ended up waiting 15 minutes past our reservation time before asking the hostess how much longer we could expect to wait. What followed was an incredibly disappointing and unprofessional interaction. Instead of simply answering our question, the hostess responded combatively, stating that other guests had arrived and checked in before us. That was not what we asked. We were simply trying to find out how much longer we would be waiting. Rather than offering a reasonable explanation or any form of customer service, she continued to escalate the situation and spoke to us in a manner that was completely inappropriate for a restaurant welcoming paying guests. We eventually asked to speak with a manager. We made it clear that we were first-time guests, and the way we were treated had already ensured that we would never return. Waiting 30 minutes past a reservation time is unacceptable. Why offer reservations if you cannot honor them or communicate delays professionally? We understand that restaurants can get busy, but basic courtesy, communication, and customer service should never be too much to expect. Unfortunately, our first experience at Kenny's Italian Kitchen was defined by an unnecessarily confrontational interaction and a complete lack of hospitality. We will not be returning. read more

This rating is specifically only for take out order. Kenny's Italian Kitchen is a great restaurant that offers a cozy and comforting experience. Known for their classic Italian-American food items. Had an opportunity to do take out and it came out disappointing during lunch hours. Truthfully not worth $17 for this portion. I suggest avoiding ordering their entrees if they continue to serve this portion for Lunch. read more

I have no idea what took me so long to get to Kenny's Italian when I've been frequenting Kenny's wood fire for close to 10 years now. What can I say? The food is seriously good, period. Italian food is not complicated, simple high quality ingredients shine on their own. The atmosphere and the staff are great. Not only are they warm and welcoming, but the space Itself somehow feels cozy and intimate all while being so vastly open. There is intentionality here, and it works. But what separates Kenny's Italian from pretty much any Italian restaurant I've been to is the flexibility. You can pretty much customize or mix and match any dish you want, without paying a steep upcharge. With that being said, nothing really matters if the food isn't good. Kenny's is pretty spot on. From the warm bread to the absolutely delicious mushroom ravioli. There's not much to criticize here. What else could I have expected from the team that brought us Kenny's Wood fire? read more

A meal so good I didn't even take pictures of the rest of the food I had. The dining area was super cute and made me feel like i was in little Italy and the service was above and beyond. We got espresso martinis which were super strong. Arancini had a beautiful crisp and the inside melted in my mouth. Caesar salad was fresh and had a hint of lemon and the soft croutons were a delightful surprise. The shrimp fettuccine and mushroom ravioli was great too. My favorite thing about this restaurant was that you can get half of 2 entrees instead of committing to a single one. So perfect for people who want to try multiple things! read more

The place gets pretty busy, I highly recommend making reservations. This place is has a very lively, cozy and warm atmosphere. Everybody seemed to be having a great time and was very friendly. Our server (Cassie) was super friendly and welcoming. I ordered the carbonara; it was very creamy. I do wish I could taste a bit more of the egg yolk, but I still enjoyed it. Spaghetti bolognese tasted authentic and hearty. Baked ziti with sausage hits the spot for hubby. We were also given free cannonili for my son's birthday which was an added bonus . I ordered cappuccino pie for dessert which I enjoyed and the espresso ice cream was awesome! I also like the fact that they check if anyone has any allergies, it made me more comfortable since my son has a few allergies. I really love going to Kenny's. I wish it was closer, I would visit more often. read more

Lovely way to spend an evening with friends... Our hostess seated us almost right away. Quite a busy place, glad we made reservations. Beware though that Parking in that area was a mess. Ivan our server was great, checking on us multiple times with refills and wine pours. Food was served promptly after we ordered and was delish as well. After Ivan got us the bread for the table, we ordered the Crispy Arancini, which was just fabulous. For dinner, the Shrimp Scampi and the Mushroom Ravioli were also great Entrees. The Tiramisu was a great portion to share. Glad we ordered it. Although, it is one of my favorite Italian desserts The food and appetizers were priced decently, although the 300% markup on Wine was just ridiculous. May be next time, we'll stick to just water. read more
