Luigi's Italiano - Mason

It was a pleasant evening, beginning with our waiter, who was also the cashier. He provided us with excellent service and my meal was delicious.

This restaurant is excellent! I really enjoy the variety of entrees. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to try something new. The Lobster Ravioli was absolutely delicious. However, my cocktail was a bit too strong, and I had to request it be diluted. The service was great—not too hurried and not too slow.

We made a reservation and noted that it was for a birthday, but there was no acknowledgment of it during our dinner. The atmosphere was quite noisy, and the waiter didn’t seem very attentive. We had to wave him down just to get wine with our meal. The food was decent, but overall, I don't think we’ll be returning anytime soon.

We were eager to try the new Italian restaurant nearby, but unfortunately, our experience left us disappointed. The tables were cramped together, making it quite loud, and the service was very slow. While the menu was fantastic for meat lovers, it didn't cater well to vegetarians. Even when we ordered a dish without the protein, we were still charged the full price. Overall, everyone found their meals to be only average. Given the high prices these days, we expected a lot more.

The quality of the food, the pace of service, and the warmth of family and friends all felt incredibly authentic. It made us long for our time living in Italy.
