Babbo Italian Eatery

Food was just ok. We ordered and it was at our table in 5 minutes. Makes you wonder how it is all cooked that fast and how fresh is it… Food was ok. Didn’t taste bad but not something I would go eat again. I could see grabbing take out for a quick week night dinner from here in a pinch, but don’t see myself eating there again other than that.

I’ve been here probably 30x and is always a ¹⁰⁄₁₀. Usually get the food to go and even after a 15 minute drive the food is still amazing. Bread and bruschetta selections are second to none.

Their food is precooked. Our waiter told one of my guests that she couldn’t have her steak well done because they receive it cooked medium and that they wouldn’t, «couldn’t» cook it anymore for her. Seems fishy!!! Too pricey for premade food! Yuck!

My husband and I eat here quite a bit because it is one of the other restaurants that pay attention to food allergies. We love to split a small pizza and get the chopped chicken salad. Everything is always fresh and always delicious. They have really great lunch specials. You can get a small salad and a pretty good size of pasta. The bread they serve with the olive oil and balsamic vinaigrette is always warm and soft. Definitely worth eating. Servers are always really friendly also.

Another great meal at Babbos! If you’re looking for yummy Italian food and AMAZING bread, this is your place. Be sure to ask for Marshall because he’ll make sure you have everything you need!

I think the picture I posted sums up my experience at Babbo. 45 minute wait for this «stunning» appetizer.

Good Italian with delicious sauces.

I want to start by saying this place has a lot of potential. Our waitress was very accommodating and nice. I had a kale and quinoa salad with shrimp that was just ok. My husband had the Cajun jumbolya (sp?) which was good actually My daughters had pizza which was good but took forever to come out more than 40 min. Why? It’s an Italian place– the pizza should never take that long to come out. That was annoying. My husband and I were done by the time my 8&9 year olds tiny pizza came out. The waitress came out several times to say «any minute now «They said they were sorry that there pizza kitchen was backed up. ??? They took one pizza off the bill– Er– ya the bill was still 50 $ and there was no alcohol purchased. We were there for over 2 hours everyone was tired and cranky by the time
We left– not cool
–MAYBE I would order take out but that’s about it. bread was good

Eat here frequently both in-​house and take out. The food is consistently excellent. Service and ambience is always great. Their chalk board menu is our favorite.

This always used to be a neighborhood favorite for my family. I have always loved coming here for the delicious pastas, pizzas and the most delicious bread and olive oil/​balsamic. My favorite is the Chicken Chipotle Pasta. I always come in with the mindset that I am going to try something new, but I always fall to my favorite.
In recent visits however, while the food is still quite good, the service seems to be lacking. The last time we visited, we asked twice for plates and silverware, and ended up having to get it ourselves. Our food was taking unusually long as well and eventually the manager came up nonchalantly saying one of our plates was accidentally dropped, that they were remaking the dish and it would be removed from our bill. Once our food arrived, the supposed «remade» dish was cold and tasted like it had been sitting out for a while.
I will likely return as I do enjoy the food and atmosphere, but hope they get their act together when it comes to the service.

First of all… the bread is amazing.
I could go there for bread and alfredo sauce and sit there for 3 hours…
I ordered the Spicy Alfredo with Italian Sausage.
They aren’t kidding, its spicy. Good flavor but the sauce was a bit thin.
Wife ordered the Three Cheese Mac and Cheese.
Good flavor but spicier then my wife was expecting… so I had to eat the left overs… darn it…
Very good mac n cheese.
Service was great, the waiter got a christmas dollar (extra dollar over 20%) that i usually save for December… XD
I will be back…

Went there with co-​workers for a birthday, so pretty much it wasn’t my choice. Therefore I must say that I was extremely surprised they had vegan options other than salad and pasta with tomatoes! Italian restaurants are not known for being flamboyant vegans lol. It was quite good actually. I had the Chalkboard menu with portobello. I give 4 stars so they can improve on that. Service was a little slow but otherwise, everything was a-​ok.

Jessica was very professional and accommodating. Food and service is superb.
Nice ambiance and patio area.

It’s a shame that I have to write this review with only two stars because I really love the food here. How is it possible to mess up an order every single time? 97% of the time they screw up my order. I work near by and order at least 2 – 5 times a month.
The two stars are for the food alone! Their service is terrible, not sure of her name but the woman who seems to be the manager that’s usually at the register is very rude! I have heard this from two other people who have experienced the same worst service from her. You cannot be rude in the hospitality business.
I love the bread they have and most items on the menu are great. It’s pricey, but tasty.
If you choose to continue the terrible service, lower your prices so it makes sense.

We are Marshall. Great waiter. He knew exactly how to space our drinks, ordering and stopping by to see what we needed. And I LOVED my dinner. Roasted Brussel sprouts, crisp pancetta, in a light garlic sauce served over fettuccine noodles. And keep the bread coming. Yummy and chewy. Marshall kept the hot bread coming. Tasty chianti helped wash it all down.

FANTASTIC. Just wonderful. We went here on a weekday as a family of 6 — had reservations, but they more than able to accommodate us. The food was absolutely wonderful for the prices. The service — we had a lovely young gentleman who was extremely attentive and patient with my… erm… not so articulate mother. My one gripe was that our pizza that we ordered wasn’t that great — I’d stick to the main dishes instead. The brussel sprouts appetizer (and mushroom artichoke) were so delicious.

Pros:
Great service: Our waiter was awesome. He adapted to the mood of the table (10 people) and made honest recommendations for the menu.
Pleasant environment: it’s a smaller restaurant but the layout makes great use of the space it has and gives the restaurant a type of great room feel to it.
Appetizer: the bread and oil appetizer was delicious. Flavorful breads. I cannot recall the names of the appetizers we ordered but they were pretty good.
Dessert: tiramisu was spectacular!
Cons:
Main course dish was a chicken and fettuccine for myself. It looked and tasted like a slightly improved Maria Calendars frozen dinner. The chicken was literally cubed… That being said, one friend of mine ordered the Macaroni and cheese and said that was delicious. There were a variety of other dishes around the table with no complaints that I heard, so maybe it was just that dish.

You made me so very happy. With my parents in tow we came to have Sunday Family lunch. With mature minds and needs come extra wants for eating out. Thank you for accommodating us with a smile. Often when eating out and you ask for a particular table or need, servers can be a bit sour. But not you, you smiled, helped, moved us and brought us fresh teas immediately.
Your food was tasty too. Just what I wanted on a Sunday afternoon with the ‘rents. Fast food never looked so good, as the quickly brought out salads you served.
I definitely want to come back, you shine as a beacon of hope for casual easting in the Northwest Valley. Great Service, Great Friendly Wait Staff, and Tasty Food!

I love going to this place on Mondays & Tuesdays for the Spaghetti & Meatball Special. It’s $ 5.99 for delicious spaghetti & meatball with complimentary bread and olive oil/​balsamic vinegar. I usually order takeout via phone, and everything is ready for pick-​up in less than 15 minutes. If you’re planning to dine in on Monday or Tuesday, it’s best to come early since it gets pretty busy; there might be a wait.

Great food. Love the special
On Monday and Tuesday. 5.99 spaghetti and two huge yummie meatballs. The bread is sooooo good. A weekly thing for us.
