    I see why Luigi's 418 is one of my uncles and friends go to place! Do not let the small sign and…read moredark windows fool you, this is the spot for authentic and delicious Italian cuisine--and in all places, yes, Leavenworth, KS! We had to wait for about 20 minutes for a table, but it went quick. We were sat with the best server that kept our water glasses full and checked on us regularly. I checked out the menu and decided to go with the spinach lasagna and minestrone to start. If I would have known how large the soup was I would have just gone with the lasagna! The minestrone was very healthy on the tomato, but topped with tons of vegetables! It was pipping hot, so it made it difficult to eat right away. Once it cooled down it was so delicious! This was not your canned Minestrone soup! So full of flavor and not super salty. I could have just had this as a meal, so I tried to save some room for my spinach lasagna. Wow and wow and wow! Again a very large portion that did not skip on flavor or seasoning. Every bite was so amazing! I only got a few bites in before my stomach told me to stop! I did manage to try my uncle's seafood pasta which was super rich and heavy; but again super flavorful. I liked that the portions were generous, but they did not skip on the seasoning. Again I see why this is a favorite! I will be back when I am in the area again!! A must!!

    We finally checked Luigi's 418 off our list. After all, how could we pass up Italian food in the…read moreheart of America? I love great pasta and never can pass up delicious bread! The menu had some fun specials like the Luigi and the OBG, and if you leave hungry after ordering one of those, that is on you! The pasta was tasty, although it looked like spaghetti had been promoted to "Employee of the Month" and assigned to just about every dish. They also have a nice bar area and a small outdoor patio that would be a great spot to enjoy a meal when the weather cooperates. Now, the service... the tables around us got the fresh-ground pepper and grated cheese treatment. We just sat there wondering if we had accidentally ordered the "self-serve" package. By the time our food arrived, the plates were hot enough to suggest they had enjoyed a little extra vacation under the heat lamp, and my shrimp had definitely spent a few extra minutes on that journey. With restaurant prices these days, I always ask myself one question: "Could I make this at home?" If the answer is yes, then the service and overall experience have to make dining out worth it. What about you? What makes dining out for you? Overall, I am not sure I would go back for the pasta, but I would absolutely give Luigi's another shot for the pizza. They looked delicious coming out of the kitchen, and we are always on the hunt for a great Italian pie. Who knows... maybe the pizza is where Luigi really shines!

My boyfriend ordered these spaghetti and meatballs, and I ordered the penne Bolognese. The meatballs had lots of flavor and were not very dry. I do believe that the meatballs were used in the penne Bolognese and we're just chopped up finally. Lots of flavor in the sauce as well! The Caesar salad was nice and fresh with plenty of croutons and lots of Parmesan. The bread on the side of the pasta was grilled lightly on each side to add a little bit of flavor and crunch. We ate every last bit of our food! Would highly recommend eating beer!

She tipped herself 20% because she knew there's no way she would get a tip if it wasn't for that. She grabbed the tab and said "let me make sure it's all there"....Even while I was talking to the manager she was rude and kept interrupting. The manager Sabas didn't do much to alleviate the situation. Hope they learn to filter people like this out of their positions so the business doesn't end up paying for their worker's attitudes. Shout out to the chefs that saved this review.

    I thought calling my local Pizza Hut would be enough to file a formal complaint and get some kind…read moreof resolution--but it didn't go as planned. So, here we are. Let me tell you about my experience today at the Blue Springs, MO location. It was as disappointing as ordering a pizza and only getting the box. Honestly, I might have preferred that. First, the pizza itself. It barely had any pepperoni or cheese on it. I've seen crackers with more toppings. When I called to address the issue, I spoke with Kayla, the manager on duty. Unfortunately, Kayla seemed more interested in laughing and chatting with her coworkers than actually helping me. When I brought up the lack of toppings, my ongoing frustration with this location's consistent issues, and the fact that I had told my husband we shouldn't order from here because well the pizza is always disappointing. Kayla seemed to find the whole situation amusing. Spoiler: it wasn't. She offered no solutions--no refund, no credit. Instead, she pointed out that since I had given my 3-year-old the smallest piece of pizza to calm a meltdown, where she was screaming "I love messed up pizza," when I was trying to explain it needed to go back... I wasn't eligible for anything. When I asked for the corporate number to escalate the issue, she claimed she didn't know it and wasn't motivated to find it. She eventually mentioned it was online but admitted she wouldn't even know where to direct me. The only real help Kayla gave me during the entire call was spelling her name correctly. That's it. Beyond that, she sarcastically offered to remake the pizza, adding that she didn't know how many times she'd have to remake it since I "clearly don't like the way they make pizza, their crust, or their toppings." Not exactly the customer service experience I was hoping for. At this point, I'm not picky--I'm just looking for someone, anyone, from Pizza Hut to step in and Make Apizza Great Again. Please let me know how we can resolve this. And maybe consider a refresher course in customer service for Kayla--because sarcasm and dismissal shouldn't be part of a manager's skillset. There are two other Blue Springs Pizza Huts that have both provided pretty consistent and excellent service. It's this location that consistently disappoints. Thanks, Jen

    Delicious! We ordered two pizzas and a Caesar salad. The Carne pizza and the La Rughetta pizza (we…read moreadded balsamic glaze and goat cheese). Here's the run down, the crust was thin, but still had a soft chew, which was the perfect bite every time. The Carne pizza had plenty of meat with an excellent tomato sauce.This is a crowd pleasing pizza pie. I'm a sucker for prosciutto and goat cheese so when Hannah, our waitress, recommended adding the goat cheese and balsamic glaze to our pizza, I absolutely did. This was a smart move. The hubby and I opted to share the Caesar salad while we waited on the pizzas. The timing of the pizzas was perfect as we had just finished our salad. The staff was friendly and kept busy. Our drinks were refilled timely and they checked on us without being interruptive. Since yelp likes when we share tips, here's one, they have an awesome happy hour menu with great pricing. Super excited, we found our pizza spot!

My work colleagues and I got sat and were informed of a long wait as there was only one server - cool. No problem. It happens. We are sitting about 20 minutes when a table of 8 gets sat next to us. The cook immediately came from behind the counter to bring water for them. We were still sitting there with nothing. Our server came over - apologized and got our orders and brought out our drinks. Our salads came out and all was well. Then we waited and waited. We were informed that one of the potato pizzas we ordered couldn't be made because they were out of potatoes. No big deal. We changed the order. Then the group next us - who came in 20 minutes after us and ordered after us all got served their pizzas(including a few potato pizzas). While we waited and was not served. Finally realizing that our diverse group of 5 was being shafted for the very non-diverse group of 8 we asked for our pizzas to go and we left. So if the intention of Il Lazzarone was to make us feel sidelined and "othered" - congratulations. Job well done. Because we left there being reminded of just how how bigotry feels. The pizzas was still great in my hotel room. But you will never see a recommendation from me or dime of my money again.

Sadly, the overall visit was very disappointing. House salad was great, Sicilian garlic dip was great. Beef spiedini tasted charred and was overcooked enough to be dry. The amogio tasted imbalanced and was finished with a soggy wad of parsley. My side of Capelli D'Angelo was actually great. My wife's Chicken Spiedini Garozzo was also overcooked. The 2 end pieces were dry and crusty. Before tonight I've never had a bad meal at Garozzo's. We know the recipes are great. The execution was the problem. To make matters much worse, our waitress was not good. Would disappear for a 10+ minutes at a time. We saw the neighboring table's waiter over twice as often. She started off our visit by bluntly interrupting my wife while she was talking to me. She took away my Old Fashioned without confirming I was done. I wasn't. Usually the service and the food are fantastic, so tonight was a surprise and a disappointment.

You may go back and forth in your mind on what you want. Look at the pictures to this review. My friends and I each enjoyed our food! If you can't handle spice don't worry about the Chicken Vincenzo being too spicy. To me was more on the sweeter side. My friends had the Chicken Spiedini (Samantha) and Eggplant Parmagiano. I will definitely go back and order different dishes! The ambiance is nice.
