Humble's little secret. My husband took me for lunch. Best Italian food ever!! The Lasanga was superb. Fine dinning atmosphere with small prices. You cannot beat the value or service. We are now regulars. Oh and their bread is heavenly.

Forget the Good Food-Boycott This Place Because of Its Owner. The good food is eclipsed by the fact that the owner is rude and vulgar. She is irritable, unfriendly, and abrasive. Her employees echo this sentiment. If you're content giving your money away to someone who doesn't deserve it, go right ahead. I, for one, will NEVER return. THIS WOMAN CUSSED AT MY CHILD! Boycott this place. Teach her the lesson of a lifetime.

Highly Over-Rated. I met business associates here based on ratings and reviews. We were all disappointed.

The young hostess bypassed us to seat her friends who were behind us. We were seated in the back at a table for 8. The staff did not want to separate the tables that had been pushed together because "no one else needed the seats". The waiter who introduced himself to us did not return and the waiter who took our order didn't introduce himself. We were uncomfortable before we even ordered.

We all ordered something different so we could taste test based on the reviews. The Chicken Marsala was not pretty on the plate and the chicken and sauce were bland. The meatballs on the Meatball Sandwich were not thoroughly cooked so the lady who ordered it did not eat it but shared with us. The pizza was good if you like NY style pizza (soft dough lightly cooked), but I happen to prefer Chicago style (thin crispy crust).

The bread was so bad it didn't get eaten and the salads were swimming in dressing. There were live flowers on the table but the silverware was so lightweight and cheap we bent two forks while eating normally. The silverware did not match. Chairs were chipped and everything looked old and worn.

I cannot say it was terrible because the price was fair and other people speak very highly of this place. We may have just caught them on a bad day, but they won't get a second chance with any of us.

Really, really good.. We love Italiano's. Their food is great, all simple Italian dishes with great flavor. I've not had anything I didn't love. The problem is I always think, this is my new favorite and then I try something else and love it just as much. If you've been there you know about the bread! If you haven't been there, you need to find out about the bread!

Cons: Their space is too small despite expansion, so sometimes you have a wait, especially on a Friday night. I guess that's only a con for those of us trying to eat there!

Pros: Fast, easy, affordable, casual. Great for families and never disappointing. Lunch or dinner

GREAT FOOD / SNOOTY ATTITUDE. The food is great !!!! The pizza is the best. And it is huge. My only complaint is the owner is very abrasive . Her attitude leaves a sour taste in my mouth. But as long as she dosen't come to my table I love the place!!

wonderful neighborhood place, excellent food. We have not been to another Italian place since we found Italianos! The food and service are always wonderful. Just a strip shop place, but nice inside and owners Susie and Al are always there. Try the lobster ravioli or the fettuccini with chicken--but the best buy is the large Caesar salad and a large pizza--you can feed four adults for $25.00 and it is delicious!!!!!
