Ordered snapper which was dry and very overcooked, filet was good, pasta dishes were good but dissappointed in the small portion of pasta on the plates. They also have a 1-1/2 hr time limit and we truly were rushed by waitress to get in and out. Within 15 mins of sitting at table we were asked 3 separate times to place app order and immediately after asked for entree order. It was a Saturday so they were busy but we were annoyed by the constant pressure to order. Maybe they should consider taking less reservations or at least increase time limit to 2 hours to allow customers time to enjoy a glass of wine, app, entree and dessert without such pressure to turn the table over.

We had dinner with friends at Theresa's South last night. We were seated quickly and the first thing we noticed was that we could hear each other! Theresa's South is quieter than some of the other restaurants we have frequented in the area recently. Our server was LeeAnn and she was both very friendly and knowledgeable. Because of her allergies she couldn't recommend many of the dishes first hand, but she told us what were the most popular items on the menu (we appreciated her honesty). For appetizers we shared fried calamari , the crab cake and the eggplant pancake. For entree's we had a crab cake, the salmon, the gorgonzola filet and lobster pappardelle. We all thought the food was very good. That said the desert was to die for! LeAnn recommended the rocky road brownie with dulce de leche ice cream. We shared it and it was excellent. Glad we only ordered one!

Was blown away by the incredible Italian food here. I tried the Linguini Fra Diavolo. The pasta was homemade and the seafood was so fresh!!! Lia was my server. She was on point with everything and was so friendly. Might have to ask for each time I visit : highly recommend this place Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
