“Villaggio Ristorante is absolutely fantastic! They have specialty Italian foods in a lively and friendly atmosphere. This is an absolute gem if you are looking for a truly authentic Italian restaurant. We found out this is family owned and family run and the attention to detail really shines through! We were here for a birthday party and the staff were so wonderful and accommodating! We had Italian focaccia bread as appetizers, moist and flavorful Italian chicken as well as Italian seasoned salmon. Absolutely outstanding! On this night they also had a live singer and I was told that they have music regularly. I love that! We definitely will be back 💗💗!”
“Great family restaurant with lots of families gathering, very friendly people. Great service, lots of food! First time here visiting family.”
“Ok, I really had a nice dinner. The food was really good. Everyone loved their dinner. The lamb was the only dish that could have been a little better. The shrimp, pork chop, and eggplant. The place is a step back in time but in a really good way. They had live music which was really good. Yes, dinner took some time, but it was well worth it. If you're in a rush, go elsewhere.”
“Attended birthday celebration for Sam Savage. There was initially some problems with the reservation but it got cleared up quickly. Every one had a great time. Always fun.”
“I ordered for delivery. Absolutely the worst Italian food I have ever had. 1) Caprese Salad had four small tomatoes and small mozzarella. The mozzarella was warm and the tomatoes mushy. It was all in pieces. Note cost. Ridiculous! 2) I was very specific on no salt and the pasta had tons of salt. The sauce was horrible. 3) No Butter 4) No utensils 5) The very small plastic container of soup was not even fully filled. . What you see is how it was delivered. Awful! My guess it was from 2 nights ago. The product was put in tins and they were not fully closed. The bag as you can see was thin and was leaking the runny pasta sauce that tasted like it was ragu. Do not order. Worst Italian Food. Go to Demarco’s which is less than 1 mile down the road. Ragu out of a jar is better than this meal. I called this location 3 times at 7:02pm Sunday as the first 2 times nobody answered. Then I spoke to a so-called manager and all he said was okay.. sorry. Wow great service. Note this was a 50.00 meal. Horrible!!!”
“Enjoyed the entertainment of Tony Ocean. Had a very nice dinner and the waitress was wonderful.”
“Excellent Food, Superb Service, Elegant Atmosphere!”
“The service was very attentive and professional The stuffed calms were amazing The veal was so tender The sausage and peppers was to die for ...... The restaurant looks way better from the inside. Wally the singer was outstanding.”
“Wonderful family-owned Italian restaurant with live entertainment. Their limoncello liqueur is phenomenal. I especially loved their grilled calamari,a must-have! Their bread basket has many different types of bread(focaccia bread I hear you calling me!) From start to finish they present you with many little surprises,(amuse-bouche),such as black Kalamata olives…before you are served your entree…and a wonderful lemon gelato sorbet to cleanse your palate(all those special touches!) Great selection of wines! You can tell that Beto and his family take great pride in their restaurant.”
“We attended a party here and the food and service and entire experience was truly outstanding. We have never had such attention and great service at a large party. The food was superb. Highly recommend.”
