    I wanted to have a fancy dinner with my bestie since it's her birthday. I surprised her by bringing her here. The place looks amazing. It looks newer than before. This is my 3rd time here and the location changed so much. More contemporary style of interior but with a hint of Italian with wine cellar and a big oven brick on the wall. Separated in the bread/pasta making department on the side. While chefs are cooking with each order for the customers. Every staff here are helpful and attentive. Gave recommendation which food is good and our server made my besties custom made pasta with pesto sauce and what ever ingredients she told them to put. It's not even on the menu. I will definitely come back here and recommend this place to everyone. Come check it out and my orders.

    Porchetta for the win

    Pietros is a true beauty. The building and decor is so breathtaking. I love all of the glass and the light. It's perfect. We sat at the bar last night and weren't sure if the service would be the same, but the bar staff was fun and quick and listen to what you like. I had a wonderful experience. I definitely over ate and I promise if you give their porchetta a try, you will too! The best polenta I ever had, the crispy skin of the porchetta and the tender meat was a perfect combination. Squeeze that grilled lemon on your arugula and I promise you will be mesmerized!

    Tried something new today (arancini) and it was amazing! Pietro's never disappoints. Great hospitality, food and ambience. Til the next time!

    We visited with our out of town family for a bday celebration and ran into a snag. Spoke with Valerie and she worked with our party. We had an amazing time over wonderful food, and great wine. Jean and Matthew were great servers. We haven't had bad service yet. We enjoy that simplicity. Our party shared the calamari, arancini and a gluten free charcuterie board. They do have a gluten free menu and they will accommodate other dietary requests. The entrees that were ordered was the steak salad, beer salad, mushroom risotto, gnocchi, margherita pizza and a small bowl of spaghetti with a few loaves of their fresh bread. Our table was quiet for a while because we were in food heaven. They brought out a small slice of tiramisu for our bday member. Overall the visit was memorable and look forward to a return visit.

    TLDR: great food, great service, pricey but worth if for a special event. We have been here several times now for work. Every dish has been delicious. The pizzas were big and tasty with a nice crust. The pasta and sauces were good. The desserts are amazing, especially the butterscotch. It's all good. The service has always been fantastic. They have a good wine selection and other drinks. It has a nice, higher end ambiance, including a heated semi-outdoor patio. It was even busy at 2pm, so consider a reservation to plan to wait.

    Okay so we went to Pietro's and honestly... I'd go back. And that's saying a lot because I'm not even a huge Italian food girl. We started with the mussels in tomato broth and I'm not kidding, I could've just sipped that broth all night and been happy. So good. Like why is the broth the star of the show?? Then I ordered the fennel citrus "salad" (I knew what it was), but my husband did not and was very confused when it came out with zero lettuce But it was actually super fresh and bright, and a nice break from all the rich stuff. For the main, we did the porterhouse for two, medium rare, New York style. It was cooked perfectly, but lowkey needed salt. It was kind of bland for how hyped it is. BUT the green beans??? Amazing. Which is wild because I do not like green beans. The potatoes, on the other hand, were just okay, and I usually love potatoes so that was disappointing. Dessert was the chocolate torte and some butterscotch thing. Both were fine. Not bad, not "I'm thinking about this tomorrow" good either. Service was great. We had a reservation but sat at the bar and it was a vibe. Cocktails were okay--honestly I'd stick to classics. The specialty ones were either doing too little or trying way too hard. Overall though, I'm going back. And for me to say that about an Italian place? That's kind of major. Like it's not perfect, but it's definitely worth it.

    Made a last-minute reservation here for a friend's birthday and was told over the phone there was a special Mother's Day menu for $75 per person. That was fine, but the menu itself and the details were never really explained to me before booking. About 10 minutes after making the reservation, I talked to the group I was bringing and we agreed the menu really wasn't something we wanted, especially for the price. I immediately called back to cancel since it had only been a few minutes. The employee told me I would still be charged a $25 cancellation fee, which I thought was frustrating but I was willing to accept. Then I checked my card and saw I had actually been charged $150 instead. Charging someone $150 after a reservation was made for only about 10 minutes feels completely unreasonable, especially when the menu and cancellation policy were not clearly explained upfront. Really disappointing experience before we even got the chance to eat there.

    Amatriciana with no guanciala sun prawns

    The mussels for appetizer, highly recommend! Tasty sauce and crispy bread. Their ricotta cheese and bread appetizer was ok. The ricotta is sweet. Bread is soft. Amatriciana entree was ok. Hint of spice. Good amount of prawns which I subbed for the guanciale ($10 subcharge). Sauce could have used more flavor. I would not get this again. I've had their eggplant parmigiana before which was good. A little odd it doesn't come with a carb. Only fried eggplant and green beans. The downfall of this restaurant was their service. Their service was very in and out, and I had to ask for many things. I expect a better dining experience for a more upscale restaurant. The parking here is not good. I had to park across the street and walk over.

    Well this is there new location for the restaurant. It was opened last November . The place is bigger but the parking is just as bad. They share a lot with a hotel to. Hopefully the hotel doesn't start tagging people for parking but hey they have a fantastic restaurant next door. We made reservations and I suggest you do too. It is a bigger place but this place was full. The staff jumped to a lot more waiters and managers. It was pretty crazy when my wife and I went there on a Thursday. We had 5:30 PM reservations. Got there a little late and had a hard time parking. They did seat us right away. Their outside area is now roofed so that is good and roof heaters all above. Very big area. They of course had sectioned dinning areas as before but bigger. The bar is bigger too. It was pretty long as you could see in my picture. After we were seated it took awhile for a server to come by. Thanks to our water server she was on top of it. She saved the day by being so attentive , filling our water and my iced tea before it was empty. Now our server is another story. It said on the receipt that his name was Adam S. We barely saw him at all. Only to take the order and one time later. Service was lacking and the non caring attitude was not good. We will get to that later. I got the risotto which had mushrooms and I think bacon and it was good. I liked it a lot and so did my wife. I let her eat some because of her dish, see below. The wife got the special , salmon over risotto. I didn't say anything while she was ordering but last time it was undercooked. This time it was the same but not as bad. The middle was raw. We wanted to say something but the waiter never came by till she was almost done eating. We informed Adam of the uncooked dish and he did say that he would have them make another one or take it away. But my wife had eaten most of it and said that she would just take it home and cook it as left overs. Not picking up on it that she was being nice Adam just said ok and left to get her a take home box. I figured he would take off the item or do something but he just came back with the bill and box. Nothing said or done. I didn't push it. We didn't get any dessert and paid and left. I was a little disappointed . They have been open for two months now and should have worked all the kinks out. Of course we will be back since we loave the food here. Wish it was better service

    Came in on 1/19/2026 which was a holiday to celebrate my birthday. Really excited to see the new place and wow it was amazing. Finding parking was kind of a pain as they share the lot with a hotel so be prepared to leave a little earlier to find a spot and get to your reservations on time. Again, the space was beautiful every corner was so detailed and beautiful to look at. We were seated in front of the kitchen and that was a treat in itself as we always like to see everyone in movement. I know that Pietro's has new staff as this place is much bigger and I am trying to give them grace but man was service painful. We immediately noticed that every table was full and as a family we decided that we would order our drinks, apps and food as soon as our waitress came by. So we ordered and man did it take 30+ mins to get our drinks, once received we were told that our waitress was going on lunch and someone else would take care of us in the mean time. He was great and we even had to tell him that our waitress never brought us bread and he was even surprised. Our food came 70 mins later and even at that some of our items were forgotten. Our waitress also came back over an hour later and took our order for dessert. We also noticed the service difference from our table to the one next to us and it was giving us all second hand embarrassment that we felt she was playing favorites. Like I mentioned I want to give them grace but its a little hard when im watching managers watching the kitchen staff like hawks and missing the whole service going on. We had time to observe and I really hope they fix these pressure points because even the last few times at the previous location service has been far from good. Food: 3.5/5 Service: 1/5 Ambiance: 5/5 Parking: 0/5 The food can't always save the restaurant your service does..

    Came here w a friend's recommendation Very cool environment. Food is tasty. We got the bustini, which definitely has a kick. The chicken parm was okay. Meatball was decent. Drink is tasty but not very strong Parking is a pain tho Definitely would recommend a reservation. We came on Monday night, and there was a wait

    Fantastic food, vibes and service here at Pietro's! Prior to tying the knot, we needed to look for a place to host our rehearsal dinner and stumbled upon Pietro's. The place was packed but we planned ahead by making a reservation to confirm if we liked the food or not. Coming from the Bay Area with high standards (lol!), this place is a solid choice for Italian food! We decided to host our rehearsal dinner with 30 people and rented out the Wine Room to have a private space for our family and friends! It was an AMAZING experience. I worked with Nicholle Hawkins and she really made the experience planning the rehearsal so seamless. There is a F&B minimum depending on the locations you want to rent out. But that just means more food and variety for you and your guests to try! Just to name some of the foods we tried... Woodfired pizza Barbabietola Salad Rigatoni Amatriciana Catch of the day Pork Milanese Budino Everyone was soooo full by the end and we had so many delicious leftovers. We all opted in for the open bar at top shelf which is why we were too full to finish a lot of the food hahaha. Thank you, Pietro's team for helping my husband and I have a seamless rehearsal experience. This will forever be our go to spot when we return to Lodi!

    So this was our first time here and we came for our anniversary and you will definitely want a reservation for this place, it gets BUSY. Once we arrived the host gave us a happy anniversary card which was a nice touch and we were brought to a booth/table which was perfect setting for the night and we proceeded to order a lot of food, drinks, and the complimentary bread. Everything and I mean EVERYTHING was delicious from the appetizer meatballs to the wafer on the gelato. Everything was incredible and our waitress was really nice and personable. Overall I think we've made this place our go to anniversary dinner spot

    States Vegan options on yelp... can anyone confirm they have Vegan options?

    As a vegetarian, my experience has always been positive here with them making accommodations. Swapping out meat sauce for marinara, not including meat, etc. The Amatriciana is really good and can be made vegan, as well as the bruschetta minus the… Read more

    Yes, they have a very good pesto dish! Everything they make is so delicious! I highly recommend. We go every other week at least, and they never disappoint.

    I don't believe there is but just double check by calling but this place is great 1000% !!you won't regret it

    What number do I call to make a reservation? The number on those site doesn't work.

    The number on their website is right, it's just that they closed for remodeling starting February 15. They will be closed for 4 months
