First time visiting. Wish we didn’t wait so long. The 3 course special for $59.99 sparked our interest. Started with warm bread served with a delicious olive oil creation. Chose the eggplant rollatini and stuffed mushroom for appetizers. The sauce with rollatini was excellent. Stuffed mushroom was so flavorful. Caesar salad was so fresh. Dinners consisted of veal picatta and shrimp scampi. Pasta was cooked perfectly. We both thoroughly enjoyed them. Finished with cannolis which were awesome. Presentation in all the dishes were noticeably a special touch. Pics of appetizers shown. Service was perfect. Such a great dinner and will be returning. Also the historic building is charming and cozy.

Birthday celebrations at Villaggio’s was a huge success and so much fun thanks to our server Tim. The early bird dinner for two was a great incentive and the quality of the food, ambience and service did not disappoint. Highly recommend.

Dishes were creative and flavorful. Large portions too. Beautiful old colonial home converted into the restaurant, so many different dining rooms suitable for private parties like ours. Cozy, yet not cramped.
Our waitress was efficient but could have been a bit more friendly…it might have been a bad day for her, so giving a benefit of the doubt.

We decided to try the restaurant again for Valentine’s Day. First of all, there was a weight line going in the door and we stood there for probably 20 minutes before we saw the host and she didn’t even acknowledge us and look flustered it would disappear and we saw her again maybe 10 minutes later meanwhile we’re all standing in a line. Nobody knew what was going on. Eventually, we were seated upstairs where we sat again for 20 minutes. We did see the way to come in once and deliver a check and he didn’t even acknowledge us or say you know I’ll be with you soon. We’re a little busy tonight. Nothing we did see the bus person once or twice with silverware in his hands, looking like he was lost. We didn’t have water. We sat for probably another 20 minutes and decided to leave. It was awful The parking lot was full. I understand they were busy, but it just looked like pandemonium with the weight staff. That was the last time that I will try this restaurant all in all it was about an hour and 20 minutes experience for nothing they have to get together in properly trained the white staff I don’t Don’t know how the kitchen is run, but the front of the house was horrible. I too wish I could rate a 0 instead of having to give them one star.

We have eaten at Villaggio’s many times and have always had a wonderful experience with the staff & the food was delicious. We chose to have our Thanksgiving dinner wanting to have a “special” night and feeling thankful for all we have. Unfortunately, the night went from bad to worse with Tim as our waiter. When I first walked in for our 6pm sitting, Tim was at the computer yelling at the hostess about a 5 top that was sat at the wrong table. After yelling at the poor woman he stormed up and down the stairs not hiding his anger one bit. We had the misfortune of being led to our table, and quickly realized, he was going to be our server. He was rude, sarcastic, and downright abusive to other staff members, which you could see written all over their faces. Our table was mortified at his toddler behavior & I ended up pulling a couple of staff aside to thank them for what they brought to the evening. Shame on the owners for not paying closer attention to this bad behavior.
Things were clearly not going right this night, but you don’t let every customer in the house know you’re having a bad night. I had heard someone say that a couple staff members had walked out that night, and I could guess what the reason was. If it wasn’t Thanksgiving night with our family all together, we would have walked out too.
The food was so so, definitely not the quality we are used to getting from there, especially with the prices being jacked up for Thanksgiving. The turkey dinner was $60 and it was a plate full of shredded meat, which was weird. The mashed potatoes were over whipped which made them pasty, and barely any gravy.
It took an hour before we were sat and asked for a drink order. At that point we asked Tim if we could order our meal at the same time, and he literally yelled at us that he has people ahead of us and no we couldn’t order. Once he decided he had time to take our order my wife asked if now would be a good time to place another drink order, at which point he sarcastically answered, “Well my dear, you can have whatever you want. You’re the customer”. Please, spare me the sarcasm.
We tipped him above and beyond, as it was Thanksgiving and we’re not those people, but we will never be back. It’s sad how many times we’ve been asked how our Thanksgiving was, and how uncomfortable it is have to rehash the experience.
I waited to write this review because I didn’t want to write it in the moment of my disgust, and when I went to read other reviews I see Tim actually has some good ones. I’ll never know if they were the one off, or we were.

Absolutely terrible. everything about it.. wish I could give a zero… from the greeting, the waitress(major attitude),the dirty glasses, the dry, hard microwaved bread that we sent back only to get more dry hard bread(waitress warned us that you have to eat quickly or it will get hard ) the random decor of hearts from Valentine’s Day 2wks ago and old dusty fake flowers… the blaring obnoxious random music. “no specials” “barely any wine”. Spent $6 on a side of asparagus..there were 6 of the smallest asparagus I’ve ever seen and inedible. Not sure what happened to this place because it used to be great. Maybe they are going out of business?? Probably the worst restaurant experience we have ever had and we will never go back!

EDIT TO ADD – the chef/owner is a liar. He screamed at me over the phone, called me a pos and hung up the phone on me. All of which I have documented for OpenTable, and the Attorney General. He claims to have had 180 people coming for dinner, despite max capacity of his building being 146 people. He claims we could have left a cash tip when we were told specifically by the server that we had to fill out the cc slip tip portion prior to running, cash was not accepted. He claims that forcing customers to fill out the tip portion prior to running the credit card is because he chose to give his servers their tips at the end of day… Despite it being Massachusetts law that servers take their tips home same day.
If you look past all of the dishonest five star reviews that are made from disposable accounts, you will see that our experience was very consistent with the service provided at Villagio. As a matter of fact, there is a review from someone who went there for Christmas 2024, who had almost the exact same experience as us.
Go to McDonald’s, the food will be better, and the service will be much better!!!!!!!!
Went to a buffet that was 135 dollars PER PERSON. Our server attempted to rush us out after one plate of food. We were served warm and melted desserts, had to listen to the host and waitress argue over seating more people in the room (was told that was okay by the owner because apparently they are dating) and then the waitress forces us to fill out the tip portion prior to her running the credit card. It was very uncomfortable and inappropriate, and other tables had not been asked to do that. The owner claims this is policy despite being potentially illegal as he has to provide them with all tips earned by end of day. When I left a review with opentable, the owner called me and left two very aggressive voicemail messages. When I called back, he screamed at me and hung up on me. I would recommend going anywhere else!!

Edit to add: I left the same review on open table, which is where we booked the reservation. I received two very aggressive very scary voicemail messages from the apparent chef/owner. I called back today to ask if it truly was policy to have all of your patrons fill out the tip prior to a card being run for the total of the bill. He screamed at me, and hung up on me.
We went for the Christmas buffet. It was $135 PER PERSON. Our server tried to give us dessert after one plate. When we told her we wanted to get another plate, she took our dirty ones and never gave us fresh plates (there were none at the buffet) and we had to take plates off of another table. Our server was inattentive, argued with the host about taking more customers in the completely empty room we were seated in, and ignoring the table in the room behind us who had coats on when we got there and waited over 30 minutes for her to bring their credit card back. According to the “chef” who replied to my open table review, the host and server are dating and “he talked to her the way I talk to my wife” which is completely ridiculous and a huge assumption to make. I guess he must be mean to his wife so he thinks it’s normal. Dating or not, the behavior was inappropriate and made us extremely uncomfortable.
Our server brought over desserts on a tray she had been showing all night…when we picked she gave them to us straight off the tray, otherwise she “would have had to go down to the bar to get more.” The desserts were warm and melted. Mine was supposed to be lemon jello I believe, it was completely liquid. We asked for the check when we picked desserts.
Twenty minutes after giving us warm and melted desserts, she finally brought our check. She requested that we fill out the tip portion prior to her running it. Very weird, awkward and UNCOMFORTABLE. It felt like she was holding our tip ransom, if we had given her the 20 dollars that we wanted to (which still would have been extremely generous for the service provided) that we would be stuck there just like the other table – their tip must have not been enough.
The “chef” who responded to my review claimed that it says on the bottom of the check that tips go directly into the bank account of the server. Why he thinks that is appropriate to put on a check, or has anything to do with asking your customers to fill out a tip prior, I have no idea. I have worked in many restaurants in Mass and other states, and never have I had tips go into my bank account OR asked customers to fill out their tip prior to running the card. There is something very suspicious about that. Especially because it was to “save time” according to the chef, but the POS machine was literally five steps away from us. And the other table waited over 30 minutes to get theirs back, so it’s clearly not policy.
The fact that instead of a phone call or an apology, I got a nasty note about how their workers are dating so it’s okay to make customers uncomfortable, and that it’s policy to have tips filled out prior despite that not happening to all tables, shows exactly what kind of people run this restaurant. I would be MORTIFIED to know my employees acted that way, and I would certainly not defend it.
I would recommend going to McDonald’s over Villagio Prime. The food and service will both be better, and that’s really saying something.

We were able to catch up with an old friend on our 12th Anniversary this evening. Our Server Tim took great care of us tonight just as he did on our first Anniversary dinner. He made our night special then and he has done it many times since when we are lucky enough to have our anniversary on a night he is working. He was there when we brought our 3 month old daughter in for our Anniversary when we were too nervous to leave her at home. He’s always a delight, and is one of the best at his craft. The food and wine selection has always been amazing! We have tried many different menu items, and have never been disappointed! Year after year we always leave incredibly impressed with our entire experience! We don’t go just on our anniversary, but it is truly a special night when we do!

Last week was visiting family on the cape and decided to get quick dinner.
Ordered on Doordash, was notified the food was ready, proceeded inside. Ended up waiting close to 30 minutes or so for the order to actually be completed.
Staff were rude, pretend they didn’t see you, and when asked the response was “whenever it’s going to be ready”
Will be avoiding the place during future visiting to the cape.
Food. Chicken parm, portion was great and had great flavor.
Sauce very watery.
