"We drove over from Pensacola with my parents for Fathers Day lunch. My dad loves pizza so we thought Villaggio would be a good choice. Once he was able to get past the fact that pizza was listed as flats on the menu all was great. My mom and dad shared the pizza and they loved it. My husband had the burger and I had a club sandwich. Everything was delicious and we enjoyed being able to walk the shops and along waterfront after lunch as well."

"Waiter took 20 minutes to arrive at our table. He was average once he showed up. Bread provided was small loaf and not worth much. Not equivalent to the type of restaurant.
I paid $30 for a dish that was very average in taste. Other people in our party agreed food price was not equivalent to what was given. Portions were ok. Would have been a better deal at $10 less a plate.
My drink from the bar was pretty decent.
Would not eat there again.

"The food was excellent, from the cheese plate and calamari, snapper and scallops as well as salads and dessert. I highly recommend you eat inside in the evening. The Wharf has a laser light show that was annoying The service was fair at best. The waitress seemed to forget us, maybe because there were so many employees there they spent more time visiting than doing their job."

"Despite there being a large 20+ 2 table wedding party being served, with our Open Table reservation we walked in and were seated with in 1-2 minutes. Our server immediately came and took our drink orders though we were waiting the other couple in our group. He did a very good job, explaining the specials, taking our orders and serving us extremely fast. He was attentive but did not hover. 3 of the 4 us us had fish: one tuna, one grouper and one red snapper special. With the other male getting short ribs. We all had oyster appetizers that had a good presentation as well as being delicious. Once again Villaggio came through 100%."

"It was prom night AND the Gumbo festival had a band outside, so it was VERY busy but we were seated promptly (early actually) and the food was outstanding. Try the oyster sampler, then come back for more!"
