    Sometimes compliments to the chef aren't enough... I need to go to the kitchen and show my appreciation in a room where there are no others. This might very well be my favorite restaurant in the world. If not, it's definitely top 3. Every single time I come here, no matter what we order, I'm wiping my seat down. It's that good. I live in New Orleans so I know good food. I've even had a run in Europe (with a couple Euro romances along the way). Nevertheless, I know good food and Pulito's can knock. my. walls. down!!! OK!!! Have me in Home Depot asking where the walls are because mine are gone. The flavor, the service, the drinks... I love this place. Bartender's cute too. Bathrooms? Perfect for selfies. 10/10, truly.

    Hamachi crudo close your eyes and enjoy!
    Justin M.

    Fantastic creations with superb attentive knowledgeable staff. Charles took care of us and we left wanting nothing more. Stand out was the hamachi crudo. Wow! MUST ORDER! Burrata was good. The quail was seasoned wonderfully. Bread was cloud soft and flavorful. The oricchetta was just ok to me. That was only miss. The scallops were enormous and buttery. The desserts were heaven. Fantastic end to my birthday dinner. Chocolate torte was not overly rich and the unique tiramisu was hard to stop eating. All of the drinks well curated by Charles. Quality establishment with the best ingredients they can find locally. Well done will be back.

    Scallops in brown butter mmmmmm!

    Elevated. This meal was pleasantly a special experience. Excellent service by Charles, and all hot items came to the table piping hot. The Caesar salad was enough for two, and topped with what I think were panko crumbs, in lieu of croutons--a perfect touch. The meatballs were delicious and not spicy. The scallops were perfect, if pricy, but worth it. Companion had Pepparadelle Bolognese which was delicious. Pasta portion was "polite" -you won't need a go-box. The upside of that, is you'll have room for dessert. Nilla Wafer Tiramisu was delightfully light, not 'too sweet', and not overwhelmingly "coffee flavored" as tiramisu often can be. We savored and enjoyed every bite. The decor is warm, cozy, mix of old and new. We will definitely be returning. If you are in Jackson, Pulito's should be at the top of your list!

    Meatballs in red gravy
    Tanya C.

    always enjoy this environment! we sat in the bar, our favorite! We both enjoyed a cocktail but I didn't enjoy the service as much as Bunny did. when i made a statement rather than posing a question as i said i would but i was corrected by the waiter. not a big deal, i promise ! then i was corrected about a menu item. really, i was discussing a dish with bunny. he overheard and made comment, not necessary! he was, by the way correct. as far as attentiveness he was. just a difference in personality. great food, love the atmosphere, service... you be the judge! ( side note, the other half of my party rated dinner a five)

    Linguine
    Angela H.

    Everything from the service to the food was outstanding! I started with the tuna crudo which was so fresh and clean. It was extremely enjoyable. I also had the linguine which was YUM!!!! I'm looking forward to my next visit.

    Caesar Salad - server announced it as "The best in Jackson". Found it needed a bit more dressing.

    Dropped in, no reservation on a Saturday night, about 7:00 pm. Slide right in to a nice table which I thought would be trouble. It should be trouble, this place is good. Inside had a nice, light, ocean/spanish kind of vibe, maybe? It's well done with lots of attention to detail. Nice chandeliers and some cool old artifacts throughout. We were in a bit of a hurry, so we rushed and ordered everything all at once and just went at it. Our server was really nice, he had a chill vibe and followed our pace. You can tell he is used to providing nice slower well paced service. We had Meatballs, Caesar Salad, Beef Short Rib, and some Crispy Potatoes. Food arrived and as always, we had way too much. The salad was on point, but was just a little dry. It needed just a bit more dressing. We ate that junt though, still darn tasty. Meatballs were scrumptious, my wife liked them more than me. She really liked the gravy and made several comments about it as we ate, and even the next day. Crispy Fried Potatoes is a misleading name. I liked them, but they are hardly "crispy fried". I found very few crispy parts at all. I thought they were good, not great. Should be named "Five Percent Food Cost" at $10, but what'evs. Short Ribs were fantastic! Just might be the best I've had. Soft and perfectly braised. Full of wonderful beef flavor and just an absolutely beautiful reduction! This is one of the few pieces of meat worth paying $50 in my opinion. You would be hard pressed to find any steakhouse putting out anything better in any form including prime steaks. I could go on and on. Do not sleep on this one!! Absolutely coming back asap!!!

    Old Bay Campanelle (Lobster pasta) and butter beans
    Deavin B.

    My waiter was great. The Caesar salad was yummmy. The waiter told me it would be big enough for two, but I must be greedy because there is no way I would share it. I had the red kuri soup, which was good, but it was cold in the restaurant so it cooled off too quickly. I also had the lobster pasta/ old bay campanelle. It had juicy meat and a flavorful tomato base. I would definitely order it again. The location is nice as well. The sign could be a bit more eye-catching. I almost couldn't find it because it's a small appendage compared to the building next door. I hope to go back soon.

    Scallops and polenta with a Negroni
    MikeTammie L.

    We love this place. We can't say enough good things about it. It's one of our favorites to frequent. The menu changes so it's hard to tell you what to get but I will try. The roasted chicken. So tender and moist. Seasoned perfectly. I recommend pairing that with the creamy polenta and their perfectly cooked and seasoned brussels sprouts. The short rib, my mouth is watering. The pizza has the most perfect crust and just the right amount of sauce and toppings. You can never go wrong with any pasta dish. Caesar salad as well as the mixed green salad that has the almonds with a vinaigrette are both so scrumptious. The arancini are wonderful. The meatballs are so good! All of the cocktails are fantastic. I will say that service is huge to me. I want to feel connected with the server but not have them hover. We have only gotten that type of a server a handful of times. We seem to get older guys who give off vibes that they are too busy and we need to make it snappy. We have observed other servers around us offering great service, so we just managed to get the wrong one. They aren't terrible servers but they don't compliment the experience. You have to try Pulito. Go for family style dining. It's the best way to enjoy the experience and get a touch of Italy in Jackson. Speaking of being in Jackson, we have never felt unsafe when we eat at Pulito. That pic is when I dined solo when Mike was out of town. The absolute best scallops ever. Cooked perfectly. The sauce was decadent.

    Appetizers (meatballs, Caesar salad, and arancini)
    Briana O.

    This is one of my favorite restaurants to visit in the Jackson area. The cocktails (I had the Hugo 75) were great. We split appetizers are big enough to split and were delicious. Also, have to have dessert. This is a must visit, beautiful restaurant, and all of the employees are so great. Five stars!

    He had Crabmeat Linguini  and mine was the special can't remember the name but is a butter /truffle pasta
    Mayra G.

    The service was great! Our waiter was very friendly! The ambiance in that first room even though is close to kitchen was romantic . Lighted perfect!! The food was amazing ! A friend recommended I tried the special pasta and it didn't disappoint (not on menu) . We also had the meatball appetizer and it was great!!

    Take out Caesar salad.

    Usually love this place, but recently got takeout. Ordered their Caesar salad and it was $14. Since the dine in salad is $14 and quite large I expected to get a similar sized salad. Nope. It was the size of a side salad from a fast food place. Ridiculously overpriced.

    Pasta with truffles.

    Cool area with great food. Pasta with truffles and scallops with brown butter were excellent.

    A nice intimate space with great food and service every time. Some odd my favorite dishes are the short rib, pappardelle and arancini.

    My friends and I visited the Jackson location about a week ago while we were in the area. We…read morevisited the Ridgeland location frequently, and the food and service there were always excellent, so we were excited to try this location for a girls' night. When we arrived, we waited longer than expected to be seated, regardless of there being several open tables. There was no communication from the staff about the delay, which left us feeling confused and awkwardly waiting. Once we were seated, the atmosphere was cozy and we were looking forward to the evening! After our server was assigned, her attitude was okay, but she walked away quickly after taking our order, which made it difficult to ask questions or make additional requests. The service overall felt slow. When our food arrived, it was lukewarm to cold. We ordered the same pasta we usually get at the Ridgeland location, but it was not the same. The flavor was lacking, and it did not taste freshly prepared. The only dish we enjoyed was the Caesar Salad.... Also, all 5 of us ordered an espresso martini and I ordered mine with Tito's and mine was made differently than the others which was strange. I make espresso martinis at home while maintaining the creaminess and I'm not sure what this bartender was doing. We did askfor our martinis to be creamy. Overall, this experience was disappointing compared to the consistently great food and service we've had at the Ridgeland location.

    I'm a fan of Italian food even if it's a casual dining experience. I love the happy hour at…read moreAmerigo, as it lets me try dishes I wanted to always try but the price vs me liking it was a tough call. I'm always intrigued by lasagna so I ordered the one on the happy hour menu. I also ordered the happy hour Caesar salad. The salad was bigger than I expected given it was on the happy hour menu. It was decent but I could have used more dressing. The lasagna was good with plenty of sauce and cheese. I could taste the various flavors but could have used a touch of seasoning in the meat. I will caution anyone who goes to happy hour. The staff didn't warn me that the happy hour specials were not small portions so order accordingly as I had a lot of food to take home. Staff was sweet and packed my extras up. Made for a great lunch the next day.
