Giuseppe's Italian Restaurant

Very nice, upscale setting, the mood is very relaxing. The prices aren’t bad. The appetizers we had were the brochette and mozeralla sticks. The red wine vinaigrette was the best over. The waiter was great. The tortillni bolognese was the best!!! Definitely will stop by on my way from the casino EVERYTIME now on my way home 🤣🤣

Chef Giuseppe prepares food that is good for your soul. I've been pretty depressed lately. I haven't had an appetite and my husband was trying to coax me into eating. I used to work in an Italian chain restaurant and often gush about how much I loved everything we served. He asked me "What's the best Italian food?" My answer was, "Whatever the chef feels like cooking that day." So, to my surprise, he called the restaurant and asked. The gentleman who answered the phone laughed and handed it over to Chef Giuseppe who spoke with my husband for a few minutes. He asked my husband a couple of basic questions- What kind of protein, and what kind of sauce does she like? Chicken, and she likes everything. Chef Giuseppe promised to make something special. Oh my goodness, he wasn't kidding! The bruschetta is mouth watering. It was a lovely balance of his zingy homemade balsamic vinegar reduction, fresh flavor packed herbs, melty cheese, and crisp, perfectly ripe, diced tomato. I could eat a whole meal of nothing but that and be so happy. The creamy pesto based pasta sauce was sensational. I thought I liked pesto. I was mistaken. I love pesto when it's done so well. The sauteed vegetables were prepared with just that hint of char that lets you know it was cooked with lots of love and care. It brings out the natural flavors in the veggies so well! I've also never tasted cracked pepper so fresh and flavorful. The stuff I have at home tastes like ash now. The entree, of coarse, was the chicken. It was prepared with mushrooms and artichokes in a lemon butter sauce. When I tell you I cried when I took the first bite, I'm not even exaggerating. My husband asked how it was and I managed to choke out between sobs and chews, "It's... So... f***ing... Good!" Absolute best thing I've tasted in I can't remember how long. The chicken was so juicy, tender, and again, perfectly charred to really make the flavors explode. Such an exquisite balance of zingy lemon, creamy buttery sauce, and again, very fresh mushrooms and artichoke that give the dish the extra pop of flavor. I can not even express how much this meal meant to me. It's the first thing that's made me smile in quite some time. I ate until I was painfully full and still have some left over for tomorrow. What can I say? It tasted like more! All in all, I stand by my original answer, with a slight modification- The best Italian food is whatever Chef Giuseppe feels like cooking that day. I have no idea what my dish was called, but it was absolutely art, made out of food, that really cheered an overworked mom up.

Attended a function which Giuseppe’s catered dinner and I have to say that it was absolutely terrible. Mostly inedible. People are going to say ,” But, it was catered”. Doesn’t matter to me. I was astounded at the number of full plates being returned from the other guests feeling exactly how I did. Bad night? To say the least.

Absolutely amazing food, wonderful, quick and friendly service and the price of the food was great. It was our first time going in there tonight and what a very pleasant surprise. We will be back without a doubt and would for sure recommend going to eat there to anyone looking for a great Italian place.

4 of us for dinner including an appetizer and a dessert (around $80). Food was okay... we were served not exactly what we ordered from the menu for our entries -- substituted one pasta for another type without notice. Alfredo sauce wasn't as rich as we prefer, but the breaded chicken was delicious. The biggest disappointment was the waitress. Was NOT friendly at all. Might give it another try, but will definitely speak up if we encounter the rudeness of waitstaff again.
