    Tiramisu cake yummy
    Gilberto C.

    Nice,clean,Cousy super friendly close attention. Owner personally attention. The waitress was very nice attentive with a great smile. The food was delicious. My Milano chicken. Don't let the small bowl fool you because it's a lot. The large spaghetti meatballs really two people could eat of it. The egg plant platter delicious. To make the story short everything was excellent!! I must say that I strongly recommend this place. Out of the other two places that I visited this is #1 the best of the 3. Must try place!!

    Bucatini Florentine!

    Shrimp Vesuvius!!

    Shrimp Vesuvius! OMG! I'm from New Orleans, and this is the best shrimp 'n grits ever!!! Rich and creamy, shrimp perfectly done, tomatoes and spinach, a tad spicy but not too much. Everything else was good too! Fantastico! Grazie!

    Yesterday was my first and i will be going here more often. I have been to Italy and it was absolutely amazing and delicious. It felt like a real Italian restaurant, friendly staff and amazing food.

    There is nothing not to love about Pazzo Pastaria. I go, I take visiting family and friends for an awesome dinner. Pazzo Pastaria delivers the ambiance, the beyond phenomenal food.... and great service I'm on a quest to try everything on their menu, one visit at a time. Thank you again, Pazzo Pastaria.

    Lunch is from 11-5 pm!! Lunch specials start at $10 includes soup or salad AND fettuccine Alfredo it spaghetti marinara. $15 has pastas with protein in them. You can add proteins for an up charge. Shelby was wonderful and the owner comes table side to greet you. Impressed with a beyond 3pm lunch cutoff. Take advantage!! I rushed everyone thinking lunch was going to be unavailable. Sweet service and delicious food.

    Autumn Crostini

    we dined in this evening, we made a reservation as it was suggested online. We were greeted by the hostess and seated right away. This is a small but lovely restaurant, mom and Pop Italian restaurant. We ordered the Autumn Crostini to start, and it was very good and flavorful with mushrooms, blistered tomatoes, fresh ingredients. Next, we had a Caesar salad that was very flavorful, beautiful, green lettuce, and Housemade dressing for dinner. I ordered the chicken Diablo, which consisted of chicken, shrimp, vegetable. My dish had a kick, but it was very good just the right amount of spice and the vegetables tasted fantastic. I can't wait to dine in here and try something different everyone at our table enjoyed their dishes, and the service was great! yummy!

    Lasagna Bolognese
    Delores L.

    First time at Pazzo Pastaria...meeting my family for lunch. Pazzzo appears to be a neighborhood restaurant with a warm and welcoming feel. They have a lunch menu, which is reasonably priced. It feels like your at home in your mom's kitchen. Our server Shelly highlighted a few popular dishes and ones like chicken Parmesan and Eggplant Parmesan that can only be ordered at lunch. We ordered the spaghetti bolognese, chicken Parmesan, lasagna bolegnase and chicken piccata bowl. The owner visited our table to inquire about our meals. In unison we said delicious! All their pastas and dishes are made from scratch. The spaghetti was a bit larger than the standard sphaghetti but tasted very fresh. Paz'zo Pastaria was a hit for us!

    Great wine suggestion!
    Tracy M.

    A++ on everything! Met another couple for dinner on a Wednesday night. MADE RESERVATIONS- yes, even on a Wednesday. This place fills UP! We sat in a cozy corner where we could enjoy our evening with friends. Our server was amazing. (I feel bad that I cannot remember her name! ) She made fabulous wine & dinner suggestions- and was so knowledgable on the entire menu. Attentiveness was on point. Everything we ate was delicious! All pastas are made fresh to order and WOW does that make a difference! Appetizers-Calamari with delicious dipping sauce, and Spin/Artichoke dip. Lasagna- huuge! And our friend really enjoyed his Chicken Parm. Husband really enjoyed his Buccatini con Salsiccia (+sausage & red pepper..) Excellent! We'll be back again!

    Alfredo
    Taren Layne C.

    From the moment we walked in, we felt like part of the family. The warm, welcoming atmosphere made the evening feel special and comfortable at the same time. The staff was genuinely friendly, attentive, and clearly passionate about what they do. The food was absolutely outstanding. The scratch-made pasta was some of the best we've ever tasted--fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced with sauces that tasted like they came straight from Italy. Every bite reminded us why authentic Italian cooking is truly an art. This is hands down the best Italian meal we've had in a long time. It's the kind of restaurant that leaves you already planning your next visit before you've even left. Just make sure to book ahead--reservations are a must, and for good reason. Highly recommend to anyone looking for authentic Italian food with a true family touch.

    Do you have a gender neutral restroom or family restroom? An elderly member of our party would possibly need assistance and has an attendant to help in these situations, but the individual is male and the nurse is female.

    We have one restroom that is non gender specific and handicap accessible.

    Hi there. Can we order take out on the afternoon of 31st? We want this for New Year's Eve to enjoy at home.

    We open at 11:30. The size of your order and when you place it will effect how we can accommodate it. We will definitely not be able to do any to-gos after 5pm.

    Is there delivery for this restaurant?

    No delivery, we offer pick up to-go on Tuesday-Thursday

I started with a Hugo spritz, which was light, refreshing, and exactly what I wanted to kick things off. Later, I had a carajillo, and it was just as perfect--smooth, rich, and a great way to wind down the night. We couldn't get enough of the burrata... so much so that we ordered two! It was incredibly creamy and paired so well with the fresh toppings and bread. Definitely a must-order. And of course, we had to end with dessert--the tiramisu was unbelievably creamy and indulgent, with just the right balance of sweetness and espresso flavor. Absolute perfection. Between the cozy atmosphere, great drinks, and delicious food, Renzo's is such a gem. Highly recommend for a chill night out or happy hour with friends!

Coordinating a big table can be tricky, but the service here was *outstanding* from start to finish. Our server kept everything organized, drinks refilled, and plates coming out smoothly without anyone feeling rushed. Everyone in our group felt really well taken care of, which made the whole evening relaxed and fun. The food was just as impressive. Truly every person at the table seemed to love what they ordered -- we had a lot of "you have to try this!" moments being passed around the table. One thing I especially appreciated was the Caesar salad. I noticed another review mentioning the anchovy flavor in the dressing as a negative, but in my opinion, that's exactly what made it great. For me a Caesar should have that briny anchovy depth, and this one tasted freshly made and perfectly balanced. It felt authentic and thoughtfully prepared. Between the warm atmosphere, truly fantastic service, and food that everyone enjoyed, it made for a really memorable evening. We'll absolutely be back! Thank you Renzo's for taking such great care of us!

    We were a group of 10 looking for a last-minute dinner spot, and a coworker mentioned they had…read moreeaten at Tre Trattoria the night before and enjoyed it. So we went online and made a reservation. Upon arrival, we had a large round table set for 10 ready for us. Our waiter, Rami, was really nice and worked hard all evening to take good care of us. The restaurant itself is along a quiet area of the River Walk in an old stone building with tons of charm. The ambiance was relaxed and inviting, perfect for a group dinner. As for the food, it was good but not exceptional. I was excited for the Goat Cheese Pizza with balsamic onion, pistachio, and saba. The thin crust, however, was almost too crunchy and a bit tough to eat. The toppings didn't stand out as much as I had hoped, likely because they were overbaked together. Overall, we had a lovely dinner with great service, a charming atmosphere, and good - but not great - food. 4 stars for now. I would return and try again.

We arrived…read morelate 3 minutes outside of our reservation grace time so we had to wait outside for a while (this part was fair). However we realized quickly EVERYONE was waiting outside and they had clearly overbooked or had some issue. Finally, after waiting 20 minutes we were sat. The waittress was kind and let us know the kitchen was having some issues so food would be a little delayed between courses. It was about 60 degrees outside and we kindly asked to turn off the outside fans which were on full blast. Once. Then again, and again, and again. After 5 attempts asking various people we gave up and the waitress let us know she couldnt turn them off because their iPad control died. We werent upset at this we were just upset we kept getting different answers and no explanation for our entire 2+ hr meal. We finished the entree and were waiting for the dessert for about 15 minutes until we finally just flagged down a waittress and asked to get the check and desert to go because we were ready to leave. We waited another 10 minutes before someone else brought us our desert but no check. We asked them for the check and then the original waitress came back with our check and another set of deserts. At some point I saw another server who seemed like the manager or supervisor telling another worker to straighten the tables outside so the corners were aligned... needless to say the table alignment was not the issue. Overall just seemed like the restaurant was overwhelmed and there wasn't alot of communication between tables and the staff. It seems the staff was trying their best but the management wasn't handling it well. Would have appreciated more effort into making sure we were taken care of considering the meal for 2 totaled almost 300$. The only reason this isn't a one star is because of the kind waiting staff.

We got an avocado salad and split it as well. They don't make their dressing homemade, but the ranch wasn't bad. Our Alfredo was dry, and we asked for more sauce, we didn't receive it. My brother in law got the spinach florentine. He said it was great and big portions. My sister ordered the chicken picatta with veggies instead of pasta. It came out with pasta. She sent it back. They should have let her keep it, and brought the veggies on the side. By the time her food came (20 min later) we were almost finished. She didn't want it. We had to ask for a manager, (she should have come over anyway) she wasn't told what happened. We filled her in. We did end up getting the chicken picatta to go and a small order of fettuccine Alfredo. She also offered a free dessert. I'm not sure who needs more training. The cook, server or manager. I don't know how the chicken picatta is, but the rest of the food is pretty good. Large portions and competitive prices. If I'm in the area, maybe we'll go for lunch.

These are a must try! We then enjoyed Ceasar salads before our entrees and really enjoyed the balance and flavor they offered. Simple and delicious.
