We had a great experience at Baggios - everything was delicious, service was friendly and the food was out quickly and hot! We had the tour of Italy, tortellini and limoncello cake (which was fantastic!). We’ll definitely go back!

Wonderful from entry to exit. We were early (5:00PM) on. Fri evening but our server was great. Not being familiar with the menu she was very patient as we scoured our menus after she had immediately delivered our drinks and yummy warm bread sticks along with a side treat of parm dressing for dipping. So good. Our food came rather quickly but again it was early and my Alfredo was fantastic. My partner had something call Sausage Pepper Parmiggiano and it was extremely tasty according to him. Pricing was more than reasonable for the quality and quantity of our food. We both took home enough for a nice lunch. Knoxville is lucky to have a quality restaurant such as this and I will return again to support them. Reading reviews will give you a general idea but I believe every establishment should be judged by more than one event. Let's support all of our local merchants😊👍.

The wife and I stopped in for lunch a bit ago.I had a very pleasant experience with the staff, and that's enough for me to give it a 3 rating.
That said I was really looking forward to some quality Italian trying it for the first time, but unfortunately the main courses were very underwhelming. My wife had the half lasagna while I got the cavatelli, and of course I had to try the pink sauce.
I'm not sure what it was, but both of our sauces ended up with a tin can style flavor to it.
Now I'm not one to not give things a second try so we'll definitely be back to give it another shot. I look forward to updating my review when we do!

Took my 18 year old daughter on a date night and wanted to try Baggios. First off…the place is somewhat clean and the staff and our waitress were very friendly. We sat in a booth. My seat was all duck taped up but whatever. Ordered cheese sticks and they were $7 and you could totally tell they came out of a freezer. Small and not really tasty. Then looking at the menu and prices seemed somewhat reasonable. My daughter ordered the shrimp scampi and I ordered the Baguio Special with mushrooms, chicken and small slices of sausage and tomatoes in a heavy cream sauce. They both tasted decent but you could tell everything our dishes were not fresh…you could tell they were all once frozen. Oh yeah, the dinner salad we got before hand was iceberg lettuce and small croutons. That’s it…could of been a spring mix with tomatoes, cheese, homemade croutons…but anyway. They also charge extra after your first refill of drinks. Was hoping for more of a fresh Italian experience but was a little disappointed. Oh and the breadsticks they brought to the table tasted like they came from a box and thrown in a microwave. But again…the staff made it a good experience and it was only our first time so we may try it again.

Shrimp scampi was delicious. The waitress had a lot of tables - that's a good sign. The manager stepped in to help her. We did not have to wait for appetizers or main dishes. Kids LOVED the bread sticks

The food is always delicious and the service for lunch especially is amazing. The waitress is always so nice and friendly. Definitely recommend this place and the stuffed mushrooms with the pink sauce is by far my favorite!!!

Food is awesome, service and atmosphere match it. Larger portions for a fair price. Always fresh, flavorful, and minimal wait. The waitress we usually have jokes with our kids, offers refills before we even realize something is low, and personalizes go boxes to simplify our visit that much more.
