Rhett and I walked into the surprisingly long, open restaurant and were seated at a
table right inside the door. It wasn't long before everyone made it to the restaurant and we began looking over the menu.
.
.
Our waiter brought out our drinks and a basket of garlic bread rolls for the table,
.
.
and then we put in an order for a couple of appetizers including the shrimp bellissimo
.
.
and calamari.
.
We worked on eating the appetizers for a little while and then when our waiter returned
we put in our dinner orders. Easton started us off with the fettucine alfredo with shrimp added in.
.
.
Rhett ordered the Diavolo pasta with chicken.
.
I ordered the Plain Jane fettucine alfredo.
.
Brittany ordered the tortellini with shrimp added in.
.
And finally Tyler and Alexis ordered a meat lovers pizza to split.
.
THE REVIEWS:
.
Alexis: 7/10
"Pizza was good, but not for the kind of money you spent for it. It did taste homemade though."
.
Brittany: 8/10
Said she has always liked this restaurant and that their wine was on point!
.
Tyler: 6/10
Tyler's rating is a little lower than the others, but we are chalking that up to him not being an Italian food fan.
.
Easton: 10/10
Easton enjoyed this restaurant aside from spilling his drink and getting in trouble. lol
.
Rhett: 7/10
"It was really good. Don't have much to complain about." Although he also agreed with Alexis that it was a little expensive for what you get.

Walking in to Ristorante Italiano it is clear that they are trying to create a nice, fancy Italian dining experience for you with black tablecloths on each table and dim interior lighting. The layout inside is very open with tall
tall ceilings and a long and skinny floor plan which makes table placement difficult, but I think
they did okay with it. Our waiter for the evening was super nice and did a good job throughout the night making sure we were doing okay. Now, on to the food. The garlic bread was pretty good. The calamari was....okay. It was
a little chewier than I prefer without really any flavor, but that could just be me being picky. My fettucine alfredo was FIRE. Definitely a great meal choice and I felt like I got a LOT of noodles. (I made at least 2 or 3 meals out of it.) Overall, I do have to agree with the crew that it is a little on the pricey side, but I
would return to eat here again for sure.
