San Antonio｜Italian Restaurant Approved by Italian Friends! 🇮🇹🍝

My friend said this is the closest you can get to authentic Italian food in SA – and I totally agree! The vibe is great, with soft background music 🎶, white tablecloths, and friendly (almost overly attentive 😅) staff in sharp black shirts. They have a large event space too – perfect for parties! 🎉 Weeknights are quiet, but weekends get busy – better make a reservation! Here’s what we tried: ✨ Mushroom Appetizer – 🍄 A tasty starter – great if you’re skipping salad or greens. ✨ Calamari Rings – 🦑 Large portion, but nothing special. Not really recommended. ✨ Classic Italian Salad – 🥗 Light, fresh, and slightly tangy – very refreshing! ✨ Chicken Parmesan Pasta – 🍗🍝 My favorite! Thin, crispy chicken (a bit dry but still yummy) served with pasta. ✨ Shrimp Pasta – 🍤 Well-cooked shrimp in a rich sauce – delicious with the pasta! 💡 Heads-up: They’ll ask if you want sparkling or still water (both are bottled and charged 💧). If you prefer tap water, just say “tap water” to avoid the charge! 📍 Maggiano's Little Italy 17603 W I-10 Frontage Rd, San Antonio, TX 78257 #SanAntonioEats #ItalianFood #Maggianos #FoodReview #DateNight #TexasEats
