Great service and delicious food! I'll won't recommend the lasagna through, it has too much pepper on it. Besides that, every single meal, including the desserts were heavenly 😋

I would go as far to say this is the BEST Italian food that I've ever had. We had the spaghetti, alfredo, fried cheese, salad, and garlic bread. All were amazing!!!

Great dinner at Maggiano’s! The bruschetta was fresh and flavorful, and the Caesar with lobster was a nice touch. My dad had the classic spaghetti with beef meatballs—he loved it. Generous portions and friendly service made for a great night.
