    Napkins varied...
    Alex C.

    Honestly, save your money and find another Italian place in the area. We came here on a Sunday, so paid dinner prices as it was a weekend. We got chicken parm ($~16), fettuccine Alfredo (~$16), and spaghetti with Alfredo and sausage (~$19). Spaghetti sauce change cost +$2.50 and +$2.50 for sausage... The sauce is WATERED DOWN. No taste, no flavor, which is crazy since they drowned all the pasta dishes with sauce. They claim that their sauce is homemade, but store bought has more flavor than this. The chicken in the chicken parm was so tiny and extremely peppery. You expect more, especially with weekend pricing. Seasoning on that was uneven, and "side veggies" were sad. Pasta had no flavor. Other dishes in my group were watered down too. There weren't a lot of people here. Parking easy and not a busy plaza. Dim lighting inside and random Italian music plays inside. They try to be fancy-looking but it's confusing as they use coca-cola glasses, butter strips, and inconsistent cheap napkins. Waitstaff was very nice at least, and accommodating. Only one waiter today for lunch, but there weren't much people anyways. Overall, I wouldn't come back

    Cold French toast, mimosas and crepés
    Jovita C.

    I was so disappointed with my experience at this restaurant. I heard so many good things about this place. Our server was sweet. Our coffee didn't even smell like coffee, it was extremely watered down. I ordered crepés and they brought them over to me and told me there were no strawberries and the crepés had no filling. I had to ask them to warm them up. We also ordered French toast and it was previously frozen and still cold. I wanted pineapple mimosas and they brought us orange mimosas. Then the waitress said they made a fresh pot of coffee that was a little stronger and brought us fresh coffee. This time, still very watered down, but at least is smelled like coffee. We paid and tipped our server, drove to Starbucks for coffee and croissants. Even though it's beautiful inside, I do NOT recommend this restaurant.

    Burger and yummy homemade chips.

    The new location is very cute inside. The service was great. My daughter had the burger and homemade chips. She said it was delicious and the chips are a must.

    We just got married here shotgun/covid style and Devin (owner) is seriously the best. She took care of everything and I would trust her 1000% to do it all again. She knew exactly what I wanted. Her staff is amazing and treated my family as their own. Everyone loved the food and bar. Love this place and thank you again Devin :)

    We ate there tonight. Excellent food and service. They had our table for 20 set up in the banquet room. Our servers were very attentive. They made a few mistakes but were quick to fix them. I highly recommend the Shrimp Fettuccine Alfredo.

    I have been here three times for dinner since they have opened. Every experience has been awesome. The food exceeded my expectations and the customer service from Jose was more than I could ask for. The portion sizes are good. I left feeling happy and full. I will be back in the future. I plan on trying everything on the menu.

    Just had my beautiful wedding at Ravello's Grand Ballroom. It exceeded our expectations, and it was reasonably priced! Devin, the owner, did a superb job decorating the room and tables. And the photographs taken by Devin were perfect! Liz was also amazing. We communicated our plans and ideas mostly with her. She was always so kind and available for any questions and/or concerns. And the food, well, so delicious! We upgraded to chicken fettuccine and chicken parmesan. There were guests who went up for seconds and even thirds! It was such a magical night. Thank you Devin and Liz for doing most of the work.

    Everything! Last…read moremonth I enjoyed dinner here with while catching up with a long "lost" old friend. I ordered something delicious off the dinner menu. I can't remember what it was, but I know that he had the pasta. And we shared the calamari and it was absolutely delicious! The service was amazing, and everyone here feels like family. They greet you at the door they treat you like, you're a cousin that came over for dinner, and the vibe here is always amazing. Whether you come for lunch or dinner or happy hour, you'll always be welcome and greeted with a smile. A couple of weeks ago I came here for early lunch and I enjoyed their pizza and side salad. I love meat pizza, and I added pineapple and jalapenos and it was absolutely fire!!! I had to take half of the pizza to go, because I already filled up on the salad and then I enjoyed the rest of the pizza for my dinner at my hotel and it was perfect. This time I enjoyed their pastrami sandwich and a cup of soup and salad and all I can tell you is that homemade ministry soup was the best soup. I have ever had. I highly recommend it!! I had to take the sandwich to go, because I filled up on the soup and the salad, which worked out perfect for my evening dinner. I love that the owner Tessa no, is her customers by name and treats them like they are coming over for lunch or dinner at her home. The staff that work at the bartender are amazing. They make you feel like family as they greet. You, when you walk in whether you sit in their area or not, everyone is welcome with a hospitable vibe that you don't see or feel just anywhere. That's a shout out to Andrew and Nikki! And when I had lunch with the pizza and the salad, I was able to meet the manager Amanda, she is so humble and kind and she has worked there for quite a while working her way up to the position that she is in now, and I love her leadership style and that she is a total team player! I also want to give a shout out to the people who cook in the back. I know one of the days. It was Aiden, and another day, someone who served my lunch also made the soup that morning, so this is a shout out for Madison, and Rudy for being behind the scenes, making the magic happen in the kitchen. Anytime I visit Merced, i do my best to stop by for lunch or dinner! Spread the word you won't be disappointed. And they have the best lunch and happy hour specials!

    Our go-to when we want to treat ourselves to a delicious pizza and not a commercial made one. So…read moregood!!

The salad is nasty. I got the chicken scampi pasta - it was not good and had pretty minimal flavors. My friends got the spicy meatball and rigatoni pasta, which was much better. Breadsticks were also great as always. I'm pretty sure it was our server's first day because she seemed very overwhelmed, but she did a good job overall.

We had Marie Callendar's and Olive Garden. In the 90's the food was good. I always opted for Marie Challedar's for the vast variety. As the food declined at Olive Garden, I would go with friend and have ONLY the soup, salad, and breadstick. Then The Soup Plantation showed up, and I would opt to go there. The last time I voluntarily went to Olive Garden was 15 years ago. About 10 years ago, my cousin wanted to meet up with us and Olive Garden was closest to his job, and we all met there. Again, I only had soup, salad, and breadsticks. I never had plans to return. I don't care about the good-looking food on the commercials or promotions. The food sucks. I'm going to try and make a long story short... yesterday, I wasn't feeling well at all. My husband has some workers near-by the Olive Garden, and he asked me what I wanted, he was going to pick it up. We both ordered a pasta dish, a soup, and breadsticks. I ordered Shrimp Scampi, Zuppa Toscano, and of course the breadsticks. Simple... right? The first thing I did was look at the bill it was almost $75.00!!!!! Knowing my husband, he over tipped. I first noticed that my serving was only half of what it should have been. I wasn't feeling good and didn't have much of an appetite anyways. I don't know where to start, but the pasta was almost SAUCELESS and STUCK together. What little sauce was there was BLAND. The shrimp weren't cook toughly, the asparagus was over cooked, and they gave me mostly the woody-splintery ends. The tomato chunks were mush, and I just couldn't eat it. So, I moved to the Zuppa Toscano soup. The broth was white colored, flavorless water, big slices of potato, and the roughest kale pieces ever. Yall should have just left it out or raw. Who???? Can jack-up a breadstick??? The breadsticks were BLONDE, FLAVORLESS, DRY, BRICKS. My husband ordered the seafood pasta. What a joke. It had small marble sized scallops and a few shrimps; but the kicker was the MUSHY OVERCOOKED broccoli. He couldn't eat it either and he abandoned the whole eating activity. He didn't even open the soup. I just threw everything into the trash; there was no saving that meal. This question is for general management Marci Anaya. Do you monitor what's happening in the kitchen? Do you see the food before it's packaged and sent out to the consumer? Do you care if we actually get our money's worth? Do you really understand how much pasta, shrimp, veggies, and soup with breadsticks I could have actually bought with $75.00??? I could have invited over 10 people and fed each one until they were full. This is a disgrace. I WILL NOT EVER, EVER, EVER, EVER return. I don't care who's inviting me, my answer is NO! If anything, I would like my money back!
