    Horrible experience. It took 45 mins for the waitress to finally get our drink order and it took two hours to finally get our meals.

    First time there and it was amazing. Wine down Wednesday was an awesome value. The food was sooo good (we got the Boscaiola & the Porchetta e Cipolla), & Heather our server was the best. Definately will be going back. Thank You Heather, You were amazing : )

    We loved the food and our server…Heather was darling! So accomodating and happy! The food was VERY good. We will try the Rosevlle next! PS…the cocktails were good…but the Vodka drinks because you use the ‘rice’ type…were deinitely noticable. We do prefer the real stuff. Still good though!

    This is a poor review because the restaurant was closed. I made the reservation, drove 30 miles to get there just to find out it was closed due to snow. It would have been nice if the reservations could not be made so I didn’t waste my time and 60 miles of driving and gas to get there. I was very put out by the whole experience. I have heard the food is wonderful but I won’t make that trip again.

    My husband and I ordered the mushroom pasta and braised pork with polenta. The meal was delicious and the servings were more than adequate for the price ($ less than 20/plate each). The wait staff was appropriately attentative. As in the past our only complain had been the noise level; this is still our only complaint. Our reservation was for 4:30 on a Saturday afternoon. We were the only customers when we arrived. The restaurant was noisy throughout our meal. The customoers were not causing the noise, it was the staff talking very loudly with each other, the kitchen staff, and other staff in the bar. In addition, the design of the dining room contributes to the noise level as all surfaces are hard (floors, walls, ceiling), with no decorating (rugs, wall and ceiling hangings, upholstered furniture), to soften or interrupt the echoing voices. We will still eat at The Place as the food and service are excellent. Next time we will try to sit somewhere not in a direct line from the kitchen to the bar.

    I have been a fan of this restaurant even before their relocation to the new restaurant. Food and service always good. We had a last minute addition to our party and it was impossible to change the reservation through OpenTable and the app gave us the run-a-round. In the end we presented with the additional guest and "The Place" accommodated us and gave us a larger table with no wait. This is a very good restaurant, which is rare for our neck of the woods (Placerville). Our hiddent treasure.

    First time customers. My wife loved all the gluten-free options, we were able to finally go to a restaurant that had plenty of options for her. She loved her pasta dish and I loved the fresh pizza from the brick oven. We will definitely go again. Staff was friendly and professional, the place was bright, new and clean.

    Great food but kitchen seems to be short staffed as the wait for food and desserts were taking way longer than normal. Pizza was very tasty, would prefer homemade tagliatelle pasta to be slightly thicker but still good, meatballs are flavorful but a bit too mushy for my taste. Overall we would definitely go back.

    Went late on Sunday night. All 4 items ordered, including one pizza, were very good. It appears that when full restaurant can be noisy due to tile flooring. Out of the way area.

    We had dinner here on a stormy Saturday night. The place was packed and our server warned us up front that the wait for food would be fairly long. We chose to stay, and I’m glad we did. Food was fantastic. There was a big party taking up half the restaurant, so it was a bit loud, but not unbearable. Wait staff were all HUSTLING. The house made focaccia bread was to die for, and our waitress comped us an extra couple glasses of wine due to the wait. And again, the food was great!

    It was Christmas Eve. Staff was a little shorthanded. So service was slow. However, the food and attitude of the staff made up for the shortcoming. We will return on a normal business because the food was excellent.

    Very busy, waitress -April- managed to get to all of us with a smile on her face. My husband had the risotto with chicken and I had the clam linguini with prawns. Both excellent with leftovers for lunch. Will definitely return. Would like to sit outside on deck when the weather is warmer. Thank you 😊

    Waitress was great! Food was very good. Kind of loud inside. One patron decided it was okay to bring their dog inside (in a carrier). DOG’s except service dogs…( I mean legit service dogs, not Amazon vest) do not belong inside restaurants. Definitely will be back.

    The food at the place is delish and the bagna cauda (hot bath) is amazing and shouldn't be skipped. The Lasagna was melt in your mouth but get there early it often sells out. We had chicken Parm, linguine with clams and Caesar Salad. Service was attentive and timely. We were there when the place was packed. Regarding the ambience. It is very bright and loud and mostly hard surfaces and the noise bounces around the room. Can't beat the food!

    Like the Roseville location it does not disappoint. The only reason I gave it a four was they sold out of lasagna at 5:15 pm. They opened at 5. Due to the fact that they also have a bar, many just sat in there to dine and ate lasagna We had reservations at 5:30 If you wish to have their famous dish I suggest you get a drink in the bar at 4;30 and right at 5 order the lasagna Kitchen was backed up but our server Jamie did a great job of communicating and taking care of us

    Food is always great! (Although, more dressing on Grammy’s salad would be welcomed)…Service could be a little more attentive (more help). Sound absorbing material along with background music (all day) would be a plus. Oh, keeping the candy basket filled!

    We love the food. We generally like the McDermotts side and our favorite hostess, Casey. But since we had some little ones for a family dinner opted for dining room. The service was slower than usual and longer than optimum with kids. The karaoke was busy and likely the reason our food and servers took a while. We will be back again for our normal 5 star experience.

    Great food, great service but very noisy inside! We loved our meal and will definitely go back but if you are looking for a quiet dinner this may not be the best choice. Also, we had gratuity added to our bill which is fine (we were a party of 6 so that’s expected) except they didn’t give us an itemized receipt and nowhere on the receipt they gave us did it indicate that a gratuity had been added. We had. O way of checking to see if they even charged us for the correct food and drink items. We had to ask our server about the gratuity who replied, “Oh yeah, I think it’s already in there.” When we asked how much the gratuity was she acted like she wasn’t sure and then said, “I think it’s 18%.” That felt very dishonest to me because we could have easily added an additional 25% tip on top of the gratuity. The service was great and we would have gladly tipped our server accordingly but it just left a bad taste in my mouth after what would have been a fantastic meal with fantastic service.

    So the very first time we ate here when it first opened we liked it! It was pretty loud in there and the service was slow but we were patient knowing they just had opened! Then we tried it again. They were out of the bread I was craving and service was slow! We went again on New Year’s Eve. It was good but we waited forever for our food once again! We thought we would try again! I was craving the short rib as I had it before and liked it! First off we waited along time to even get waited on and second the food took forever! More then a hour! We went thinking that maybe they now have picked up the pace because they have been open for sometime now. Nope that didnt happen!!! My short rib was not the same! I could barely eat it! It was brothy and the flavor was blah!! My daughters meal was Cannelloni and it was runny and just not right! My husbands was not very good either! They also need to do something about the sound level in that place!! Get some carpet and hang some curtains to calm it! It’s sad to say but we will not return again!!!

    When I made the reservation I let them know it was a special occasion. It was my wife's birthday. When we arrived there were numerous open tables and they sat us at a small table against the wall. We ask to sit at the table for two in the back of the room and they said they were expecting a large crowd and would need to use that table to connect to others. A short time later (10 minutes) they sat 3 people at the table we asked for and even took 1 chair from the large table next to it which no one ever sat at. We ordered the Caprese salad which was good. I ordered the Fettucine Alfredo and it looked more like soup than an entree. I literally poured the alfredo sauce on another dish. To top it off we were over charged for the bottle of wine we ordered. I made the waitress aware and she had it fixed. We are local and and had ordered the lasagna from the previous location so we were hoping for a nice experience for my wife's birthday. We could not be more dissatisfied and will never visit this restaurant again. Although this was a bad experience the waitress did a very good job.

    Noise level so high that everybody has to talk loud to a person across the table. The table is covered by butcher's paper instead of a table cloth. I ordered a chicken alfredo dish witch had a ball of noodles about 3 inches in diameter stuck together in one big lump. Overall a bad experience for all four of us.
