    This was the second time we have been to I’ll Modo in the past 2 months. Our experience last night was a let down and gave us concern. We ordered beef tartare for an appetizer. The toast was burnt which was overbearing the flavor. We told the waitress and ate the tartare on bread which was good. When we made the reservation I noted we were celebrating my wife’s birthday. When seated the waitress mentioned I see we are celebrating a birthday which I acknowledged. However nothing came of it.

    Since we were staying at the hotel we decided to eat at this restaurant. The service was less than great. We only saw out waiter to take the order, bring water, and bring the check, although he did apologize for his absence. The portion for the price is unreal ( four scallops for $40),, but the scallops were excellent. A little disappointed for our Anniversary celebration.

    Had a 7:15 reservation but were not seated for 30 minutes. Food was good but server was so busy they dropped our food and didn’t return until way after we were finished, not even to check on how the filet was cooked. Also, wanted to order another drink but waited 15-20 minutes for him. No one else in the restaurant responded despite looking at our table & seeing an empty glass. All in all food was really good.

    We came because of Restaurant Week, but as soon as I saw Lamb Shank on the menu…game over! Our server, Jesse, was knowledgable and attentive!! The kitchen was so kind as to switch the orzo to risotto, and I was overjoyed! Great wine selection and ambiance as well!! I will definitely go back and recommend to all my friends! Thank you!

    Restaurant Week at its finest! Ask for Emily's section. Fantastic service! We could not resist starting off with burrata and an Aperol Spritz or two. The antipasto salad was refreshing and just the right size. The Bucatini Cacio e Pepe was better than Italy! I hope this goes on the regular menu (please!!!!!) The others in our party had the Rigatoni Bolognese and the Linguini Puttanesca. All were delicious but the consensus favorite was the Cacio e Pepe. Can never go wrong with a cannoli for dessert. I ate every last bite! It was so delicious, I forgot to take

    We had a delightful experience at Il Modo, a restaurant we've been eager to try for some time. During DFW Restaurant Week, we finally had the chance to visit, and it exceeded our expectations. The recommended wine pairings perfectly complemented each dish we ordered. While the prix fixe menu tempted us, I'm thrilled I decided to venture beyond it to try the asparagus soup, which was a savory and buttery delight that stood out. Beyond the soup, every item we sampled was exceptional, but it was the cannoli that stole my heart. Special kudos to Liz, our server, whose fantastic service enhanced our evening. Our gratitude extends to the entire staff, with Liz truly making our night unforgettable. Cheers!

    Tables were dirty when we arrived. Menu for Restaurant week was confusing and not what it showed online. Service was lacking and we had to put our hands in the air and wave down servers even tho the restaurant only had 2 other tables. I realize the restaurant also takes care of room service for the hotel guests, but the servers would walk thru the restaurant and not pay attention to the table, even tho we were sitting there hoping they would at least glance in our direction so we could get an ice tea refill, our check, etc. It was "meh" but I will add that the food was good...too bad about the service and those flies....!

    Very disappointed. The rigatoni was a big let down. The noodles weren’t cooked all the way so they were chewy. The food was barely warm when it arrived at the table. We also had the margarita pizza and it was a big let down as well. Flavorless. Barely any cheese. Our server was nice and polite but not very attentive.

    Went and ordered cocktails as well as several appetizers to share with our group. Service was beyond slow. When the food finally arrived I was very unimpressed. Everything lacked flavor particularly the meatballs. Calamari was objectively bad. Soggy and not crisp with again no flavor. Won’t be returning.

    Our server was very nice and attentive. I found that my food and my guests was ok but certainly has been better quality in the past. The pasta was nice but the grilled chicken was really over cooked. I found that the restaurant was eerily sparse as if very few knew you were open for lunch on a Thursday.

    Very nice experience. Valet was great right in front. We started off by going the the lounge on the 24th floor. You can bring your drinks down to the restaurant. All the food was good, but are two must-haves were the Burrata appetizer (enough for two) and the Tiramisu dessert. Service was great. They have a small bar in the restaurant, so if you are walking around the Square and want a drink, appetizer or dessert you can just pop in. No real dress code so you can go all-in for dinner or tourist casual for a drive by. Highly recommend.

    We live out of state and came to your restaurant in February. We really loved everything about it. We were anxious to return when we came back to Fort Worth. We were disappointed that some of our favorite items were no longer on the menu. The food was ok but not as good as our last time.....

    The service was poor to start. I eventually had to stop a server to ask for cocktails. Our drinks were good. We started with the Buratta. It was really good, and the basil was fresh, but the toast was burnt. I ordered the Linguine with clams. It was watery and tasteless. It actually looked like dishwater, and I think there were about 6-8 clams in it. My friend had the rigatoni. She said it was ok but not great. The wine was terrible, I should have sent it back. I thought it just needed to breathe a little. I was wrong. I would not recommend this place.
