Customer Reviews

This place is fantastic! I've eaten Italian food all over the US and the world. This place is in my top 10. Fresh pasta, fresh bread, and the Alfredo sauce is made to order. This place is authentic and frankly, I don't think the people of Cuero Texas fully appreciate this place. You're getting great food from a wonderful family and your money is not going to a big corporation. It's going to help a local business and your own community.. This place should be busy night and day!

My husband and I took a day trip from Leander, TX and found this amazing restaurant. We got there about 2:00 pm and were greeted and quickly seated by the hostess. The young gentleman who was our server was very warm and friendly. I asked for his recommendation and he knew the menu well. We had a fantastic lunch and even took home a pizza for dinner! It just looked too good not to try. Wonderful atmosphere with soft music playing in the background. We will definitely be returning to this gem of a restaurant.

Food was so great. One of those few time you feel like it's home away from home, the presentation, aroma, and taste all checked the right boxes. Service was great too. The team here is very respectful, they try to make sure you have the best experience. Atmosphere is gorgeous considering the location of this restaurant. Well kept, offering indoor and outdoor seating for your convenience. I would go back to this restaurant weekly if not for the distance. If you ever choose Cuero TX, as your vacation destination or weekend cool off or getaway, don't hesitate to check out this Italian Restaurant, you'll definitely love it.

This Italian gem in Cuero, TX has some of the best dishes you'll ever taste. Be it in a big metropolitan or a little town, this restaurant can hold its own. During my stop I was not disappointed in their home-baked tortellini, spicy shrimp spaghetti, and lobster ravioli. I even went home with a large pizza pie for the family. This place is highly recommended for anyone in the area or just driving through.

It was such a nice place to eat, especially for it being a relatively small town. Our server was amazing and had a smile on her face the whole time, and when we had questions, she was very eager to help. The atmosphere is amazing as well. It's definitely the best food I've had in that town so far, and I honestly hope it stays that way even the food portions were very plentiful we had leftovers which I'm never mad about can't wait to return again. My camera did not do the chicken parmigiana justice.10/10
