"Food was good, but for the price we paid, I would not recommend. Service was not very welcoming, when for the price it should have been inviting."

"THIS WAS an excellent experience for all of my party (10-- 6 adults, 2 8 year olds--1 3 year old / 1 one year old). As you can tell we were diverse. last year we had a BAD experience AT ANOTHER restaurant on Mothers day--Crowded-ran out of food-- etc
THIS was nothing like that---We were seated immediately which is critical with little kids... food was in abundance and refilled constantly--- We we right next to the buffet table but did not feel crowded-- space was maximized without us as patrons being close to the buffet feeling crowded...food was excellent--I asked if it would be possible to have a small dessert with a candle for my wife because it was also her birthday.... DONE with a smile and excellent terimisu... we will be back!"

"Went to Villagio for a nice quiet dinner with my husband. Service was excellent. They even kept my husband's water glass filled. He drinks like a camel, so keeping him in water can be quite a challenge. My husband ordered a glass of wine that he did not care for and they exchanged it without charge. We both had a really nice salad-Spiritosa. The food was excellent especially the spaghetti carbonara. Would definitely return."

"I've really enjoyed this restaurant the prior times I have been there; however, on this occasion it was very disappointing. We made reservations through Open Table. Upon arrival we had to wait 35 minutes to be seated,so the reservation meant nothing. As a matter of fact there were other people that were walk-ins that were seated in the same time frame. Our waiter was very pleasant, but the restaurant was under staffed. It took 15 minutes to have our drink orders taken and service was slow all night due to the under staffing. I ordered the ahi tuna special and was asked how I would like it cooked. My reply was medium rare. It was well done. This may have been a function of how it was prepared, but then why ask me?"

"The food was decent, albeit ridiculously overpriced. I ordered the Villagio pollo and received 1 chicken breast with prosciutto, 3 half red roasted potatoes, and 3 asparagus for $20. It was prepared well, but nothing I couldn't make at home. The restaurant was also almost empty at 6pm on a Saturday- it was only our table and 1 other. It's a cute neighborhood restaurant, but we will not be becoming regulars."

"Had never been to Villaggio before and decided to give it a try on valentines night. As expected it was busy. Arrived about 15 minutes early , had a glass of wine at the bar and was seated within 10 mintues. Villaggio is a nice place not too fancy or stuffy, fireplace adds a nice touch. Dinner was very good, we both had salads, pasta meals, desert and a bottle of wine. Wine choices were good. The waitress we had (forgot her name, sorry) was a young lady from south America was excellent.Just the right amount of service. The prices are a little high but for this special occasion worth it. overall we do recommend Villaggio."

"I took my Wife and Daughter out for dinner on Valentine's Day. I love the Main Street Zionsville area but we had never tried Villaggio Restorante and Bar before. The staff was wonderful, especially our waitress. The food was very good and we had a wonderful time. We will be back."

"We were looking a restaurant near the amc theater in Trader's Point. Since it was a date night, and those are few and far between we also wanted a non chain restaurant. We started with the caprese and a glass of wine. Caprese was ok. I had the EOS Petite Syrah and my hubby had the Inkberry Shiraz/cab. The petite Syrah was very good I ordered a second glass with dinner. We each ordered salads, I can't remember the name of the salad I had but, it was awesome sauce. It had strawberries almonds and a very delicious dressing. For dinner we both went with the specials. I had the crabmeat Broccoli risotto. It was good, but Chad ordered the pork medallions in Marsala sauce. The medallions were the best we'd ever had. We will definitely go again."
