    It’s a fine place for a nice lunch but be advised it’s not the most comfortable place to extend a visit for a long lunch. The food was above average and the service was very good.

    AMAZING! The food, service, waitress/manager (sorry I’m bad with names but waitress has dot nail polish and glasses), ambiance, and again…THE FOOD! Ughhhh. I live in Houston and Eataly is what my Italian food dreams are made of.

    I believe its too expensive for being eating in the middle of a grocery store. The food was good but very small for the price! Also we paid $12 for a 16oz unsweetened tea!!! Btw the prices of the drinks are not on the menu!I dont think i would come back or recommend this place.

    The hostess was AMAZING, and checked in consistently. My original server seemed unsure, but when the second server took over, everything came out great!

    A hidden treasure. The food was delicious and the service was great. Really enjoyed it. A bit noisy because of the location but we were still able to have a conversation. Would definitely recommend it. A great time!
