Vespucci's Italian Kitchen — Restaurant in Georgia

When in Canton....Vespucci's Italian Kitchen is located right off Canton Rd down the street from Kell High School. There is a Planet Smoothie and Ray's Donut in the same little plaza along with Waffle House. You can't miss this little Italian eatery.

With baseball and basketball events in the area, the restaurant was busy. However our party was seated immediately. We were helped immediately though. We were talking and reviewing the menu when we noticed a waiter had not been to our table. It had been about 15 minutes since we were seated. I normally would leave at this point and eat elsewhere. I was overruled.

Hostess stand was notified we hadn't been helped yet. A waiter came over a few minutes later to apologize and begin taking orders.

An appetizer of garlic bread with marinara sauce was quickly brought out along with our drinks. Sweet tea wasn't Southern sweet tea but good. Yes I love my sweet tea if you've read my reviews. Ordered a bottle of rose as it had been a long week. Rose was perfect after long day basketball.

The side salads came out with the appetizers. We ordered the calamari and fried ravioli. The calamari was cooked perfectly. It was gone in a flash. I heard the fried ravioli was good. I didn't get to try it. Darn kids! Lol! Side salads were fresh and just right amount dressing.

Next the entrees, Greek salad with grilled chicken, NY strip steak, lasagna and spaghetti with meatballs. I was asked if I wanted a small or large salad. I said small with grilled chicken. What I received was basically a side salad with almost 2/3 a sliced chicken breast on top. Be mindful if you order a salad. It was good but needed more salad with my chicken. Lol. I wasn't super hungry after waiting so size of salad was fine.

Son loved the lasagna in his personal container. There was nothing left. He said it was delicious. His friend enjoyed the spaghetti with meatballs. He only ate half as he was full. My son's dad enjoyed his NY strip steak. It was cooked to order and well seasoned. No steak sauce required. Mashed potatoes and Italian veggies were good as well.

Coffee and a little something sweet. We got the Sea salt caramel cake and the chocolate mousse layer cake. Let me say I am not a sweet and salty kind of person. I am just not a fan. However, I didn't taste the salt and this cake just melts in your mouth. It was delicious. Gotta try it. Just right amount of caramel. Amazing! I am a chocolate person and the chocolate mousse cake was delicious as well. Think like Hersey semi sweet for the sweet level. I enjoyed that one as well. I heard the coffee was good. I was still sipping the Rose.

So all in all the food and drinks were really good. The staff was friendly and informative of the menu. We had nice booth inside with plenty space to eat and enjoy our time. The waiting and not having a wait staff assigned and there were bigger parties rolling in just left a bad taste for me. Couple that with a long day of basketball and just doesn't sit well. I was ready to destress and enjoy a good meal. I might go back but wait a bit or less busy day. Our waiter apologized which was appreciated. I would have thought the manager would have come by to say Hi heard about the mishap sorry to hear that and hope everything got back on track and you had a...

I am an Uber Eats driver, arrived to Vespucci's to pick up two deliveries, having the third one to get at another restaurant. The waitress girl walked me to the pick-up area and asked to scan both bags' QR codes. So I did. Right after that she told me one order's still waiting strombolis to add; two minutes later I was updated it might take just five minutes extra. Sure thing it took way longer, so ten minutes later I received 'looks like you may be delayed' message from Uber - from the company's point of view, I've picked up both orders and was supposed to be driving for the third one.

After 15 minutes of waiting, Vespucci's guys brought in strombolis at last, I started driving and almost immediately was texted that 'your delivery was made available to another courier because of significant inactivity'. Basically, I lost my third delivery as well as my money.

Well, what should I say? Thank you so much, Vespucchi's staff and management. Appreciate your exemplary slow-pace performance. Appreciate your misleading requests. Appreciate your incredible inability to provide correct timing. Appreciate wasting my time. Appreciate wasting my money. You definitely deserve a ponderous half-star. Too bad Google won't allow me to assign a half rating.

PS Oh, I see someone from Vespucci's responded to my review. Nice. Sir, did you read my review carefully? My fault wasn't that I scanned the incomplete order. My fault is that I followed the waitress girl's request to scan both orders as if were ready. But in fact they weren't. Basically, you'd better sweep your own porch clean first, leave Uber alone and report your staff for misconduct instead....

My wife has written by this restaurant many times and tonight she decided well it's just going to dinner there. I'm very glad that she suggested it. The restaurant is very plain and inviting nicely appointed and very nice outdoor patio. Fully stocked bar also available. That sounds of interviewer greeted and seated after a few minutes our server Matt came and got her appetizer. Matt provided great service for the entire meal and definitely next time will try to sit in his station but he will see works at the bar. Her appetizer came we had got the calamari was very good I did ask for a side of marinara instead and it was quickly brought out. My wife got chicken Milano and I got the house this idea first off we had two excellent Chris cold Caesar salad. Dressing was good for a slightly salty as his name with anchovies so I don't know why some people here have said that it was salty because that shelf is very salty. So the sound is perfect. Hot fresh bread rolls with marinara sauce was it excellent accompaniment to the salad. Soon or entrees arrived her chicken Milano was steaming when it was delivered as was my lasagna both freshly made Deming hot. Her chicken water was light very tasteful grilled chicken not overly cooked the bow tie pasta was perfect. My lasagna was very flavorful very cheesy lots of meat and sausage and was a very good portion as a matter of fact we both took home some to enjoy for tomorrow's lunch. So this is our first visit certainly will not be our last good food good service good surroundings . The only drawback is it's off the beaten path so come on down Canton road from 92 to shallowford road and enjoy this...
