Great tasting authentic fresh Italian dishes. FRESH is the key word. Everything made fresh daily! Loved the atmosphere and live music. Our waiter (and others) were so helpful, kind and attentive. The owner, Mac, came to our table and made us feel very welcomed. We will be back! We have already made reservations for Valentines. Great place!

This as close to authentic Italian that I have eaten in TX. The food came out quickly and the portions are generous.
Good happy hour specials on drinks. They have a large patio that seems to have both evaporative coolers and heaters, along with the wind blocking vinyl. Prices are little steep on certain things (steak and ‘adding meat’ to pasta). Servers were friendly and attentive. Only thing they can improve on is I have never eaten at an Italian restaurant that does provide bread and butter. Should at least do that for the dinner crowd. They don’t lose a star, we also cannot give 4.5 stars though.

My husband and I stopped by last week for the first time and dined outside. The vibes were so good! The food was fine I just wish they put a little more love into their mocktails.

Went here for our anniversary and the food was pretty mediocre. The steak was over cooked and the spaghetti sauce was basic like it came from a can. The service was exceptional but the atmosphere gives you a bar feel.

I had an amazing experience at this delicious Italian restaurant. I started with the hibiscus margarita, which was refreshing and perfectly balanced. For my meal, I ordered the spicy shrimp pasta, and the sauce was bursting with flavor and had just the right amount of heat. We also shared a brick oven flatbread that was not only delicious but generously sized for the price. Our server Jenny was kind, attentive, and really knowledgeable about the menu. The chef even came over to check on us, which made the evening feel extra special. My friend and I truly enjoyed our time here and we’ll definitely be back.

We went to this restaurant hoping to have an authentic Italian experience. The food mediocre at best , for me the fried calamari was good . The meatballs ordered from the appetizer section were cold and the sauce they were in was tepid and not very flavorful like you’d expect. Nor did they come with any garlic bread. I was charged for flat bread with everything but the bagel seasoning. No stand out garlic taste and it was a bit tough. The fig and pig pizza was good. The table side made fettuccine was a disappointment. You’d expect some giant cheese wheel and a big production, it was a plate of watery noodles on a plate and cheese and I think butter tossed by the server. We asked for 2 limoncello shots and we were served shots of yellow liquid that taste like the smell of lemon pledge. Followed by the worst glass of prosecco. Our bill $172 before tip $200 with.
I’d say our experience was definitely not worth it. I’d say a 2/10. Only because the server was nice.
Save your money and go somewhere luxe, dolce niente is not the spot for true Italian cooking like your nonna makes

Went for the second time on Saturday night and sat on the patio—great atmosphere with live music! I tried the Italian Sandwich, which is served on their famous bread, and I was shocked at how huge it was. Definitely worth the price and very filling. On a previous visit, I had their fettuccine Alfredo, which they prepare tableside, and I’m also a big fan of their meatballs (highly recommend ordering those with their bread as an appetizer). For anyone looking for a lighter option, they also offer a healthy salmon dish—perfect if you want more omega-3s and fewer calories. Overall, a great spot in Spring for authentic Italian food, generous portions, and a fun vibe.

We’ve eaten here several times and the food and service (ask for Abby) are always excellent. Owners, Chef Bob and Mac, always go above and beyond for special occasions (request the Chef’s Table) and catering events. My go-to for lunch/dinner is the burrata salad and chicken piccata. Must haves for brunch are the dolce donuts, dolce toast and the DRUNKEN CHICKEN SANDWICH – there’s nothing quite like it. If you’re a non drinker, not to worry. The bar makes great mocktails and even stocks 0% beer.

First time coming here. The food was decent. I had one of those bolognese, and my son order the chicken marsala. When we received our order, we got the bolognese, and a chicken dish ,that I’m not quite sure what the name was. It was not the marsala. I would have let the server know, put the never came back to the table. The only time I saw someone when they drop the check off the side of my table and walked off.

Booked a reservation for 7 on a Friday at 5PM and the place was hopping! This was after the end of the holidays too, a great sign people love this place. Our big group ordered all different items and everyone enjoyed theirs. Great portion sizes and felt super authentic. Could tell they used fresh ingredients. Their Alfredo was a huge hit and we got cheesecake and cannolis for dessert. If you’re in the area, this should be your neighborhood Italian joint!
