I ordered Chicken Parmesan from the restaurant. It was dry and had no cheese on it. There was not nearly enough sauce on the Chicken nor the underlying spaghetti.
I met one of the owners, Renee, while I was there. Unlike the predecessors of the property, she was very professional and genuinely cares about the customers. She wanted me to tell her about anything that I did not like about the food that I ordered for carryout.
I would have preferred to talk with her by telephone or email her, but there was no phone number or email address on the Website. I am hoping that she responds to my review. I would like to revise my review with a more positive one. I will be glad to do so if I could speak with her and/or email her to set things right.

New Italian restaurant! Meatballs were very yummy! The pasta with white sauce was not exactly Alfredo, but similar! Very unique and delicious! The noodles were fantastic and obviously made from scratch! The best part is that everything was very affordable! Staff was as nice as can be! Give this place a try!

WOW! What a fantastic addition to the Cleveland Foodscape! Can smell the yumminess from the parking lot <3 *So many options* to choose from _GREAT PRICES! _too; for great portions of delicious, truly Traditional ITALIAN <3 You WILL have to ask for a To Go box & have some left over for Lunch tomorrow :) I loved the personal touches for family: there is a little section of toys on shelves near the Take Out window. Our server brought some of them out for our little one to play with @ the table, keep her occupied while we ate! The wait & bar staff is so super friendly & very attentive, impeccable service! For such a quaint little spot. Really beautiful, warm & inviting dining space - with natural wood walls and shelves, gorgeously placed wine rack adorning the room - just so cozy! & a natural heavy wood butcher block @the far end, for some reason, gave an inspired Old Tuscan Country feel ! Was a very cool, very pretty touch! Looks like could do gourmet classes or some other food inspired events over there, on that side ! There was live *fresh aromatic herb on each table as a centerpiece. Thoughtfully, there are changing tables in both male & female restrooms and the considerate gift of diaper wipes tucked inside :) What a pleasant surprise--> of hospitality, kindness! Have never recieved anywhere else. All of these amazing things are nothing* compared to the food ! Fantastic presentation & even better taste – savory, sweet, spicy heat, if wanted – and everything in between; from 5 star stuffed hungarian hot peppers, balanced with tender& sweet italian sausage, smothered in a pork roasted family recipe tomato sauce & mozzarella bake (just AWESOME!!!), warmed whole olives to crushed tompanade, delicious focaccia starter bread, sprinkled with rosemary leaves_ an innovative risotto & parmesan “little bites” appetizer w neapolitan tomato sauce – the appetizers hit every note! Salads were ample & dressings delectable, such a wonderful wedding soup and lemon/piccata on my pasta with the tenderest melt in your mouth veal! Tastebuds coming alive, mouth watering as remembering, such a flavorful memory/treat 🙂 There is a generous host of fresh in-house made doughs, used for the huge sammies and gourmet pizza choices. Every pizza created , then cooked in a traditional Bakers’ oven! A special mention for the inventive KIDS MENU ! My personal favorite : Char CUTIE board, with your choice meats, cheeses and grapes for your Littles ! Last but not least, an outdoor patio where your meal can be enjoyed in the open air. This cozy nook filled with made from scratch italian victuals will surely not disappoint : family & friend filled fun, having great food – or a quiet romantic evening out, with international imported beers and wine & sweet treats for dessert – ItaLEEs is a sure winner !!!
