Caio from Grapevine Texas!
Background, I’m Italian heritage and I don’t like eating Italian food at restaurants.
Tried this place and the food was very very good. I’m thinking my mama would like it here. Besides good food another highlight is it’s BYOB. That alone saves u BIG money.
Okay here we go… Service was good and food was good. Several traditional items on the menu plus they have daily specials. One of the few Italian restaurants that have veal (if that’s your thing). Portions were a good size so you don’t get super stuffed and have no room for dessert.
Let’s talk dessert, black coffee was good and the cannoli was just so so. Filling needed to be a little thicker and richer, it was ok if u don’t have any Italian blood in you. You gotta look at the pics. Yum.
P.S. yes I would differently be back, but next time I’ll bring more wine .

the calamari at this place was delicious. however, their chicken fettuccine alfredo was just okay. the pricing for the portions they serve is incredibly high. they also charge $4 for splitting a plate, and they only bring one salad, even though they charge to split a plate.

I want to start with the most relevant point.
The service was terrible, I have visited alot of restaurants.
(MR Nicky) your service was terrible and he was rude. Bad attitude, he ignored us, and we even had ask for simple things to attend to us. He was nice when I paid the check . He is friendly with other costumers ,it was probably the color of my skin.
The lobster ravioli dish was 5 stars, but the lasagna had no flavor, the tomato looked like it was from the can ! I give it 0 stars.
The bread look nice, but had no flavor and was dry. And the mozzarella sticks looked like they were from the freezer store bought.
I don’t know how they have a 4.6 star reviews. I would give them a 3.5.
Please check the service .

The Italian here is well done, with rich flavors and very fresh. Starting with the hot fresh bread that comes out with butter. I prefer oil to dip it in over butter, but its tasty. The house sauce has a lovely tomatoes and basil flavor. The lasagna is amazing! The veal is also well done, with tender cuts of meat and both the Piccata and marsala are delicious!
The service is very good, the brothers are attentive and kind. Its BYOB, so it’s nice to be able to bring exactly what you like. Since we’re craft beer people, we can bring a perfectly paired beer. We tend to get here on the earlier side so that there is no wait, its a busy and popular restaurant for a reason! You can’t go wrong here!

Y’all, an incredibly high-priced menu does not automatically mean good food. Worst Italian I’ve had in a while. Truly, Olive Garden is better than this.
The clam linguine only had 5 clams yet managed to have sand grit in every single bite. I’m really not sure where they got the rest of the cut up clams that they added to the sauce; that’s a really cheap move for such a high priced dish. The sauce was so incredibly watery and bland, and they just shaved a whole garlic clove into it. What?? I kept imaging how Gordon Ramsey would put them through the wringer for that dish.
The house salad dressing sounds good, but it’s just a weird tomato sauce (I was imagining a hint of tomato but it is full-on sauce). My husband got a tiny bowl of spaghetti on the side of his veal dish (weird, he didn’t order it), but the tomato sauce tasted straight from a can, no seasoning whatsoever, kinda like the pasta from CiCi’s Pizza. Also, BYOB might save money, but it’s very annoying when you are trying a new restaurant and can’t even order a glass of wine. How the heck was I supposed to know to stop by the liquor store beforehand?
Sorry I would have let this experience go without reviewing, but I genuinely don’t believe this restaurant deserves anywhere near its current rating. The prices are ridiculous.

This restaurant in Grapevine offers a good dining experience. The menu features a variety of Italian classics, each prepared with fresh ingredients and well-balanced flavors. While most dishes shine, there’s room for slight improvement in flavor in the pasta sauces to reach perfection. The staff is friendly and attentive, ensuring a pleasant visit. However, during busy times, service may feel a bit slower during peak hours, but the overall professionalism and warmth make up for it. The ambiance is the highlight. With cozy lighting, elegant decor, and a relaxed vibe, the setting is perfect for a romantic date night or a family gathering. Overall, wonderful spot, decent meals, attentive service, and an unbeatable atmosphere.

Best bread and butter in the world. All of the Italian dishes are ridiculously amazing. The red sauce is maybe the best I’ve had in a restaurant in my life. Every time we are near grapevine this is our splurge. You will not regret it. It gets super busy, so be prepared. It’s worth the wait.

Can’t believe I’m just now getting around to reviewing this place. My family and I have been going here for years. We come for every special occasion, every time we have friends or family in town we bring them here, and we come on random Tuesdays when we’re craving good Italian food. We always go to the location off Northwest Hwy. Never been to the other one.
1) They are BYOB, which is a real plus for saving money, and they never judge how many bottles we drink!
2) The service team is fantastic. They have treated us like family since our very first visit.
3) The atmosphere is that of a cozy, intimate, family-run Italian cafe.
4) Now, I say this as a born-and-raised Texan and not an Italian, but their food is awesome. Between me and all the friends and family I’ve brought here through the years, we’ve made our way through the whole menu and haven’t had a single bad thing. The worst we’ve found here I’d call just “good” (chicken Parmesan, fettuccine, the house salad) while the best we’ve found are really delicious show stoppers that keep us coming back hungry for more (the house dressing, chicken arrabiata and chicken Jerusalem, filet mignon opua and Madeira, any of their veal dishes, the mussels marinara and the seafood combo). My biggest issue with this place is always deciding what to get because everything is so good!
5) Save room for dessert y’all! The cappuccino pie and limoncello cakes are the show stoppers for anyone with a sweet tooth. Their cannoli is just “good”, but their tiramisu is great. I haven’t tried their coffee myself but have been told it’s pretty good as well.
Thank you, Cafe Italia, for all the delicious food, wonderful service, and precious memories over the years! I’ll be back for many, many more.

Food was good , every dish served with a salad to start with, salad was meh .. just ok. The house dressing taste like ketchup, we enjoyed better the Italian dressing. The food was good , the salmon was a bit over cooked and cover led with lots of good sauce.

We had lunch at Cafe Italia while visiting Dallas. I was deeply disappointed. The spaghetti and meatballs were disappointing. The meatballs had no flavor. It needed additional seasoning. I had a few bites and left the entire meal to be thrown away. I expected more. I would not be back. My sister did enjoy her lobster ravioli.
