I went for my friends birthday. Service was super slow but the food was amazing. I ordered the chicken pesto dish & really enjoyed it. Everyone at my table was impressed with their choices as well. Our server was very pleasant. Thanks Peter!View more

This restaurant is extremely noisy when full. We had difficulty hearing each other. The food & staff, however, were incredible!View more

It may seem like an odd spot for an authentic Italian joint, but the food doesn't fail to represent every time I eat there. With today's prices it is certainly not outrageous for a night out. Thanks guys & galsView more

They were fully booked when I phoned, but fortunately called back right away after a cancellation. The service was very busy but friendly & competent. Our bottle of red wine didn't appear to my tastes but was drinkable. The salads we chose were delicious & large, the highlight of the meal! Complemebtary focaccia was scrumptious. Our main courses had varied ratings, including the Vitello Babbos special (disappointing mix of tastes) & the salmon pasta (excellent sauce). The dining atmosphere was excellent with an authentic Italian feel. Prices were appropriate. Parking in the shopping mall was plentiful.View more

2nd visit here for us. Tonight we went with our grand daughter for dinner. We had Caesar salad & calamari to start. The calamari was ok. The Caesar salad, though, was not ok. It was the strangest & oddest dressing I’ve ever seen in this old standard. Not good by any means & not even remotely connected to the most basic of Caesar dressing. Strange. Bread also came but sat on top of some very cheap, bitter & unpleasant olive oil. Not good at all! Granddaughter then had spaghetti & meatball & liked it. My wife had chicken parmigiana with Alfredo which she also enjoyed. I had Carbonara & it sorely lacked a couple egg yolks & had no hint of black pepper. All in all, a meal not even remotely worth the $200+ bill. Service & atmosphere are good, I have to say.View more

You get what you pay for… it wasn’t inexpensive but definitely going back (as a matter of fact in a couple of days (different lady to impress). Had the Rack of Lamb the 1st time. 👍👍👍

Went back in Sept. 2023, ALL the staff consistently friendly & attentive on each visit. Had a stuffed veal dish the 2nd time & while good, not as tasty as the Lamb. But I will keep going back until I try most of the dishes. I won’t hesitate to recommend the establishment.

(Actually the first time I went before the Lamb review (above) & it was for lunch. Decided to return there for supper…glad I did. Overall experience very positive in future dinner visits.)View more

The service was great & the food was delicious. It's a really nice Italian restaurant. There's a private dining room for groups. It's a small-ish restaurant & it fills up fast. I would recommend a reservation. I had the pollo amaretto & it was amazing. I also recommend the cheesecake. Even the cappuccino I had after my meal was delicious. Definitely adding this to my list of favourites.View more

Had my 1st experience at Babbos last night & myself & the 12 other people I was with thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of our time there. Our appetizer were shared on platters & consisted of calamari, zucchini sticks & bruschetta’s. Our set menu then included homemade buns, house salad & a choice of Babbos vittelo, chicken marsala or baked salmon. Dessert were lemon cheese cake, selection of 3 types of traditional or tiramisu.View more

My 3 friends from high school & I (now in our 50’s) went out for dinner & had a fantastic meal & exceptional service with Victoria as our server last night!
The restaurant even brought us out a special dish of Fettucine Alfredo on the house & a Tiramisu for us to share!
Wow
Quaint, authentic & a mist go for anyone looking for a great night out with friends or family!
Oh & did I mention the wine? Yummy!
5 * hands down!View more

After coming back from Italy I have to say that Babbos pasta is on par or better than the best Italian restaurants.View more

This is Italian style food which is good, not great. It somehow looks like Italian food but far from it. If you've never been to Italy, you might enjoy it.View more

First time/Last time.

A decent variety of apps/main dishes & pasta to choose from but most aren’t outstanding in presentation or taste.

Service was satisfactory with some small accidents but they were apologetic.

Atmosphere was satisfactory with options to eat dine inside, on the patio or on an extended patio lot.

Parking was satisfactory because it’s attached to a plaza.

Pricing. For Italian food, it isn’t unreasonable but after receiving the bill eating apps, drinks & pasta I would rather spend that money at other restaurants.

Overall, a mediocre, satisfactory experience that gives me the motivation to drive up to little Italy to get a better experience.View more
