Description

In the charming downtown of Buckner, MO, this Italian restaurant offers a mixed dining experience. While some patrons rave about the friendly service and delicious dishes like chicken parmesan and eggplant parmesan, others lament the inconsistent food quality and microwave-like preparations. Highlights include a delightful peach tea and tasty complimentary bread, though a few find the ambiance a bit noisy. The restaurant shines with its reasonable prices and a wide variety of menu options, but customers caution potential diners to approach with tempered expectations. Overall, it holds potential for great meals, but reviews indicate a need for consistency.

Wife and I enjoyed everything we ordered. The food was absolutely spot on and the service was fantastic. Dietary restrictions: Good gluten free options ?

Our visit didn't start on the best foot, when our food arrived, both my main dish(chicken parm) and side(steamed broccoli) were pretty cold and my dish had almost no sauce, The server was nice about it, took them both back, and brought both back out warm. We didn't realize the owner was sitting at the bar right next to our table. Things go far better from there. He checked in on us to make sure everything was good, and it definitely was, the flavors were great, pasta was cooked perfectly as was the chicken. We also had the Tiramisu, and it was spot on, moist, and fantastic flavor! Wish we were spending more time in town to try more things here!!! Parking: There is sufficient free parking on the street in from of the location.

Some of the best Italian food every had. Just like being at home on a Sunday dinner. Wheelchair accessibility: Handicap parking is right in front of the building.

The waitress was incredibly friendly, and my friend mentioned that the raspberry tea was the main reason she chose this place for her birthday celebration. The bread they served was delicious, and my meal was fantastic. Given the atmosphere and quality of the food, the prices are surprisingly reasonable. I highly recommend coming here instead of the Cheesecake Factory—it’s more affordable, tastier, and has a more romantic vibe.

Good...but, average. I had cheese manicotti with vodka sauce. I wanted to try their alfredo sauce, so I did get a side of that to try with bread. The vodka sauce was definitely the better sauce... the alfredo had a very thin consistency. I feel like Italian sauces should be able to hold on to the pasta, just in general. Personal opinion though, honestly, the flavor itself was good. I really wanted to try the bread pudding for dessert but it had nuts (not for me), so I had plain cheesecake that was definitely just basic. If I lived in the area, I would return try some other menu items for sure. The choices were MANY!
