Great to find a place new to us - dining outside on State Street during restaurant week. Highlights were the beet salad, salmon and grilled fennel, and tiramisu. Attentive waitstaff and a surprisingly complex vermentino wine.

Small and quaint but the food is good and they have some unusual things like black pizza dough. Sounds awful and burnt but it’s not. It’s pretty darn good. So all I can assess is the one experience with the pizza. Wine selection is average but they have some nice wines but they are a bit pricey. Service is friendly and very good. Food is fresh and tasty. I just need to remember to ask they not put olive oil on the pizza after it is cooked due to a medical issue with oils. Otherwise I would recommend you give this authentic and creative restaurant a try.

One of the best Italian restaurants around. They make even the most common Italian dishes into extraordinary experiences, not through celebrity chef tricks and bizarre experiments but through focus on the basics: ingredients, seasoning, and skilled cooking. You may never have Italian food this good.

I marked their service down because I had to wait for my entree long after my two other companions received theirs, and I had to wait a while to get the condiment I asked for after receiving my entree. Otherwise, the service was very good.

The food is tasty, but the service was incredibly slow and skipped on the basics like refilling water glasses, etc. When dinner was finally served they brought out only 5 entrees and the sixth was delivered about 10 minutes later. They also brought out a different dessert than what we ordered. In terms of ambiance and comfort, we dined in the outdoor area and the metal chairs were incredibly uncomfortable for our entire party.

The service was very poor. It was 25 minutes before someone came to our table to take our drink order. The food was pretty good, but the staff was scattered and not attentive. We were super bummed because the ambiance was very welcoming, but we were very disappointed.

Not much ambience; the decoration is pedestrian. Excellent pizza but the bolognese was served lukewarm. It was hard to get our server's attention to have it warmed, although the restaurant was sparsely attended. For the money, you can do much better at other Italian places in SB.

Went with my girlfriend for Valentine’s Day. The food was very good but the service was not great. Our server was working hard and trying her best but I think they either need more staff members or a different system. If they can tighten up the service, Oppi’z can be a total winner.

We love Italian food and frequently eat at Italian restaurants. The food at this one was awful. The pizza was soggy, way too much fresh mozzarella and we could hardly find the sausage. There was no cheese in the lasagna, none, just mushy noodles and meat sauce with breadcrumbs on top! The Caesar salad croutons were just dried bread cubes, no seasonings or olive oil. Spinach salad dressing was only balsamic. Had to ask for oil and vinegar for our bread which was tasteless, it needed a little salt. The server was very nice but seemed to avoid our table after the food was presented. The restaurant was only 1/4 full, if that. We should have sent the food back, but we paid our bill and will never be back or recommend. Yuk!

We ordered the salad and a black dough pizza. The salad was somewhat stale and it was apparently not thoroughly cleaned. We informed the waiter and they actually took the salad off the final bill. The black dough pizza was fine although not spectacular. Maybe they were short handed but it took some time for them to deliver us the food. I am sure they can do better but that was not their day.
