Our family ate here on July 23rd. It was a little disorganized. There didn't seem to be a set person seating people. We didn't wait very long for a table and the staff turned the tables over quickly. The staff didn't seem to have an effective way of serving. Our waters were regularly empty and it seems like they were trying a team approach instead of each person having a section, but ineffectively. I am still not quite sure what was going on there or if they were just understaffed. People were very friendly and nice and by no means was it a huge issue, it just is not somewhere I would bring someone on a date or for a special occasion. The appetizers took a little while. They were not great, but my kids liked them. The food was mostly okay. Our children's spaghetti and meatballs were not very good and neither ate it. I tried it myself to see if they were just being picky, but the spaghetti sauce kind of tasted like someone used a combination of tomato paste and diced tomatoes. All of the dishes had a massive amount of sauce and there was a lot on my plate after I finished the shrimp and ravioli. The lack of balance kind of threw off the dish for me. My husband agreed his dish was okay, but not amazing. We ordered a cheesecake to share after our meal. The cheesecake was probably the best part, but you could tell it had sat for a while and the crust was overly moist. The place seemed clean. The staff was friendly. My daughter was fascinated by the lighting and the pretend grapes hanging up on the ceiling. It was an okay visit, but I don't think we'll...

Luigis was very good! Great atmosphere, polite staff, great portion sizes. The flavor of our entrees were pretty spot on. Our son said his pizza was average. The husband and I got the Chicken Parmigiana. We enjoyed our experience! We will be back!

We ate here before and it was superb. Better than the other competitor in town. This time my Alfredo sauce was runny. The flavor was not bad, but it made me queasy because it was so runny. Also, I don't know if the restaurant doesn't believe in pineapples should go on pizza because we ordered a Large Hawaiian and it did not come with Pineapple, sadly. The calamari and Pesto alla Genovese with Veal was so delicious. My husband enjoyed it and was gracious enough to give me a bite. The only thing I ended up eating aside from the calamari was my chicken parmigiana in the Tour of Italy because the lasagna was really salty. It's pretty disappointing that we spent as much as we did and really my husband was the only one happy with his meal. Pics posted. You can see how thin and runny my Alfredo was...it was so thin it had bubbles! And the pizza...no pineapple anywhere. Even lifted the cheese topping thinking maybe it would be underneath, but nope. Really disappointed this...
