    Fried fresh mozzarella
    Rachael A.

    Our waitress was friendly and the service was great! The ambiance is good and looked very clean. Some of the food was good. Some of it was just a bit underwhelming. The fresh fried mozzarella has "spicy vodka sauce" on top, but there wasn't much of it, and it didn't taste like much of anything. I tried their home made spinach ravioli and they were just kind of bland, however the walnut cream sauce the ravioli was served with was tasty! The free tomato bread topped in sauce was probably my favorite though.

    Well to tell you the truth we were disappointed. It looked to be a popular restaurant but the culinary experience wasn't that great. There was confusion about seating to start. But once seated our waitress brought us complimentary pizza pieces. It was more biscotti. Stale and hard. I ordered a house salad which came out looking like it should have been from a diner not a fine dining restaurant. And the pizza was just so so. The pasta dish flavor was mediocre but worse was the pasta was over cooked which I consider a Nono. So yeah it was gonna be just a one time visit. I try to write at least some positive things but sorry not here.

    I just asked the waitress what she recommended and this was bomb!!!

    OK, we're from California and we are total foodies. This is probably one of the best Italian restaurants we've ever eaten at! proportions are huge. All of the sauce and marinara are delicious. Even their signature house dressing is to die for.!! All the servers are great and on point asking if you needed to box up food or grab checks, making sure you never waited for anything! Water always full! I give this place a 20 out of 10!! Absolute fire! I just told the waitress I want it really good fruity wine and she delivered on point! My husband got some sort of margarita drink and it was absolutely delicious. Brittney was our server and she is just adorable and honestly super good server.! I paid $132 for dinner, two appetizers, two entrées, four drinks! And we still have enough food for lunch tomorrow!

    We made a reservation for a Sunday night dinner and were seated right as we arrived. They have a great patio and outdoor bar, but we sat inside at a comfortable booth. Service right from the start was excellent and friendly. We shared a Neapolitan pizza as our starter, absolutely perfect way to kick off the meal. For our entrees we had the Chicken Parmigiana and Veal Milanese. Both generous portions served with pasta and a salad. We were stuffed, but after tasting such delicious food we had to try dessert. We took home a cannoli and Italian rainbow cake. Truly appreciated how nicely our server wrapped up our leftovers and dessert. We already can't wait to return.

    I've been wanting to visit Lorenzo's Southside for a long time, and let me just say, it absolutely lived up to the hype! I visited on a Saturday evening around 7:30pm and figured there would be a wait, but fortunately, the place is massive, and we were seated inside right away. There are ample places to sit, including on their covered porch, expansive indoor and outdoor bar, as well as inside. Our server came over to greet us and take our drink order. They have a lot of different wines, cocktails, and craft beers to choose from. My boyfriend opted for the Italian Pilsner, which is a collaboration between the family who owns the restaurant and Artisinal Brew Works in Saratoga Springs. He said it was good! For our entrees, we shared the Americana Pizza, which was fresh tomato sauce, mozzarella, basil, pepperoni, and Mike's Hot Honey drizzle. It was incredible! So fresh tasting and the pepperoni were delicious. We also split the Stracciatella Pasta, which was homemade garganelli pasta with vodka sauce, grilled chicken, and stracciatella cheese. I could eat this for the rest of my life - it was unbelievable! It's so creamy and delicious. I noticed they offer a dessert pizza, so of course, I had to try it! It came with Nutella, berries, and powdered sugar. It was fantastic! Overall, our experience was A+ from start to finish. The waitress was so attentive, and the food was incredible. I will absolutely be visiting again soon!

    Great food, service and ambiance! Waitress was pleasant and knowledgeable about the food. Complimentary bread and butter was delicious. The meals that came with salad came with a whole container of their homemade Italian dressing that you could take home with you! It was delicious. Chicken parm and pizza were both cooked to perfection and super flavorful. Drinks were delightful and reasonably priced. Can't wait to go back!

    I stopped here on a Friday night as it was walking distance from where my wife and I were staying. We requested a quiet location and were seated in the back dining area. The restaurant is actually quite large and well staffed. Our waiter was very friendly and attentive. The food was really good and enough to bring a portion home for lunch the next day.

    Dressing was more of a mustard dressing, not ceasar dressing.  Pass.  Bright side, it was huge.
    Kathryn K.

    I'm torn here. The chicken was good, but my ceasar salad really wasn't. There were not a lot of options on a Sunday night nearby, so they were very busy. Overall, the place was clean, and people were friendly enough but not positive. I would recommend it unless you had no otherreal option like us.

    Expensive and food inconsistent. Do not recommend as a destination restaurant. If it's convenient, then it's ok.

    So I went on a Sunday afternoon during the middle of an event in the mall next door. I know there…read moreare very few places to eat in the mall... only a Chinese takeout place... so I expected a lot of the vendors/exhibitors in the mall would wander over here for lunch. When I went in, there were probably 15-20 people sitting at 4-5 tables and another elderly couple in line waiting to be seated. They had one waitress/hostess for the whole restaurant, and it was her job to seat people, take their orders, get their food, ring them up, and handle any people who wanted to grab slices from the counter. She was completely slammed, but never once lost her temper. The "manager" came out once to tell tell the waitress that she had to call a customer back because they were out of something. Then, I watched the manager retreat back to his hole and just stand around. At the same time, the waitress was literally helping 25+ customers by the time I left. The manager should be ashamed of himself, and the waitress deserved all the tips she got. I forgot to mention the food! She recommended the eggplant/red pepper pizza and I ordered a slice. Once heated, it was good but not great. I imagine having it fresh out of the oven would have made a big difference. But, it was a good taste combination to remember for the future. There aren't a lot of food options near the mall and this place is just okay. The "Fresh" in the name is somewhat misleading in my opinion. Perhaps I came on a bad day, but it is what it is. It really deserves 2 stars but the waitress' attitude made me bump it up one.

    If I could leave zero stars I would. I spent 50$ on dinner for my family tonight and ended up…read moreeating cold food because the delivery driver never called. He just left my food on the porch in 35 degree weather and I didn't notice until 40minutes later when I was wondering why the food hasn't came yet. The manager isn't doing anything about it even though I sent proof that I did not get a phone call. We were regular customers but they just lost us and I csn not recommend them to anyone. Especially because most people order food and want HOT fresh food, not food that was sitting in the cold for almost an hour. Employees and manager, both rude.
