Cheese pizza - my husband says the best cheese pizza he's ever had
Brooklyn A.

Cute place, delicious pizza (recommend the cheese and the white) and delicious authentic pastas. Everything I've eaten here has been good. The meal begins with bread which taste almost like butter garlic knots.

Shrimp scampi- I didn't think to take a photo till I was done. This is the leftover sauce after eating the nododles

TLDR: The chef sucked today and doesn't rate $17.99 a plate. I am willing to come back later on to see if they improve/the main chef returns. To begin , the original Luigi's was amazing and I can to try their new location. It takes a lot for me to yelp a bad review... I ordered the ribeye ortalano. I was nervous ordering steak from a small town country Italian restaurant. The steak came to the table with nice grill marks on one side and no grill marks on the other side. It was almost a coyote brown color and cooked to well done about 85% through with some red (not pink) on the underside. No exaggeration whatsoever, it was the toughest piece of meat I've had in a long time. I suspect it's freezer burn or they cooked it partially still frozen. I had to send it back and the chef refused to re-cook it because "they said it was medium rare". Ordered the shrimp scampi in substitute. Had good taste but was drowning in butter/oil. My wife ordered the tilapia geneovese and it was delicious. Flaky fish lightly fried and nice sauce. The server said the main chef was on vacation. The building is old but quaint. Hometown feel. The servers are disorganized but friendly. The servers also grab the bread for the bread basket with their bare hands (I find this gross as they're constantly touching customer's plates and then using the same hands to grab bread). Like bro... are tongs that expensive?

Driving back from Corpus to Austin, we found this gem half way for a dinner break and WOW it was…read moreamazing! As a New Yorker I have missed good Italian while living in Austin. Every Italian place I have tried in Austin is a total ripoff - extremely overpriced and low quality. This place was the total opposite of every Italian restaurant I've been to in Austin - it was amazing! I immediately felt like I was back in NY. They were so friendly and gave us warm garlic butter rolls and water the second we sat down. It was the biggest menu - I wanted everything! It was so difficult to choose as I don't see even 1/4 of these options in Austin! I finally decided on the spaghetti and eggplant parm. But how I wish I could also get the baked ziti, the meat sauce, the lasagne, the subs, the calzones and the pizza too as everything looked amazing! The portions were massive - enough for 2-3 meals! Plus you get free salad and bread. And when we were done they offered us even more rolls to take home! Took 10 rolls home plus leftover salad and pasta. It was absolutely delicious, so satisfying. The best comfort food for a Sunday night meal. We paid $40 total for a massive meal that would have easily cost $75 in Austin and been 1/2 the size! Wish I could go back again and again if it wasn't 2 hours away!

Roma's has amazing lasagna and pizza. Their Alfredo sauce is great as well, however, I wish they…read moreoffered a no meat version of anything with the white Alfredo sauce. The chicken is horrible. Inedible. It tastes like a boiled chicken breast. No flavor, texture like rubber. I've tried it several times. It is not good. My daughter likes to get the baked ziti... she really likes it, but often has to take off almost a pound of cheese before she can eat it. There is such a thing as too much cheese. I have heard the owner yell harshly at the weight staff and don't really understand why anybody would work for somebody that screams at them the way he does. Roma's has the potential to be amazing but I feel like the owner is holding himself back. Also, the prices are a little high. If I could sit down and have a frank conversation with the owner, I would suggest dropping the price by a few dollars and cutting the portions in half. I'd come more often if the prices were lower, even if I got less food.

No. Did I know there was a Castroville-favorite restaurant there as well? Also no. We had to try it. Located inside the Alsatian Golf Club's clubhouse is their 19th-hole restaurant and bar: Julianna's Restaurant. Upon entry, you realize the place has been around for some time. It feels very classic San Antonio, with wooden walls accented by tan and white bricks. The restaurant's aged interior gives it a cozy, lodge-like charm. Though the restaurant was pretty busy on a Saturday night, we were seated instantly at a booth that gave me a perfect view of the Georgia-Alabama game on the bar's TV. After nine or eighteen holes, you never know what you're in the mood for. That's why Julianna's has plenty of options: sandwiches, pizzas, pasta, seafood, steaks, and other meat dishes. Our server came by very quickly and got us our drinks, which for me was a tall Saint Arnold Oktoberfest. I had a tough time deciding between two options: a bone-in pork chop or their creamy Cajun pasta. I opted for the bone-in pork chop with a Caesar salad, bacon green beans, and herb rice. My dad got the creamy Cajun pasta, and my mom got the Southwest chicken. It wasn't long until the Caesar salad came out, with huge croutons and a generous helping of dressing. It was excellent to the point my mom wished she had ordered it over her chicken tortilla soup, which she also enjoyed. If you ever order a meat entrée and they stick a steak knife in it, you're in for an ESPN Instant Classic. The pork chop was huge, topped with a house raspberry chipotle sauce. It was tender and cooked well. I'll admit, trying to find the bone versus the pork was a challenge, but I think that was a me issue. I would order it again. As for the sides, the bacon green beans were sneakily running for Sixth Man of the Year, and the herb rice paired with the pork chop quite well. I would go back. The meal was high quality and felt like a hidden gem even for longtime Castroville residents. What a treat. RIYL: Going to golf courses while being very bad at golf.
