I love a dim lit Italian restaurant. Its decorated lovely with a fresh flower at each table. I had the lasagna, came with a soup or salad. I had the salad with Italian dressing which BTW I believe was homemade because it was delicious. The bread was ugh so buttery and had the perfect toast to it. The lasagna was presented nicely and it was served hot. Every flavor just hit right. If you come it's a must try.
Now this is an Italian restaurant that truly surprised me. Everything was absolutely wonderful, and the food was so delicious. The chicken parmesan was the best i've had and the tiramisu was the best as well. The restaurant is decent with space with a little bar in the back where you can see what kinds of beer and wine they have. Everything is spaced very well, and the environment is welcoming. Also in the back left corner they have a set up for performances and music. Definitely will come back again. They had these beautiful roses spread across the tables too.
You wouldn't imagine a pretty nice Italian restaurant in Corpus would you? Well, no need to imagine anymore or be disappointed when you try one and dont like it because this restaurant is solid. Its quaint but hits hard. Nice interior, great menu, and exceptional service. The food we had was great. Delicious Italian food here. We loved it and we have eaten at quite a few Italian restaurants in corpus- including an "upscale" joints in won't visit again. And this place is a gem and a delight. Forget olive garden or some of the "fancy" joints in CC. This here is the spot. Their menu has the usual dishes desired and more. Wine to boot. I like the variations of eggplant dishes beyond the standard parmigiana and other plates. You can stay safe with the usual plates or try other delicacies. Be sure to bring your appetite.
The food and service were great. The atmosphere very relaxing and enjoyable. The place is small so we had to wait for about 40 minutes to get seated. There is no person to greet you, there is no waiting list nor info on how much time you will need to wait.
We had a meet and greet for our Lions Club. They placed us in the back room. Food, atmosphere and service was excellent. Everyone that attended really had a great time and we received a lot of compliments. Nora is so easy to work with and the entire staff is always professional and friendly. One of our favorites!

Authentic Italian flavors served with warmth and tradition in the heart of Corpus Christi.
