BELLINI’S RISTORANTE REVIEWS

Service and atmosphere were excellent, but if I'm being honest, the food overall was only slightly above average. Our appetizer (Fried Artichoke Pieces) was not very good. My meal (Chicken Marsala), and my son's meal (Pizza) were average... My wife's meal (Crab Cakes) was a little better... And then my daughter's meal (Spaghetti & Meatballs) was by far the best. Their meatballs are very very good. I will certainly be back one day for their meatballs.

Pictured are Chicken Alla Vodka and Seafood Risotto. Both were delicious. We also had the crab claws, which were great. The restaurant was clean, with a pleasant atmosphere and nice decor. The hosts and servers were also very kind. Excellent experience.

We had a wonderful lunch in this restaurant. I had the pork fillet and it was cooked to perfection. The polenta was delicious with it, as some as the brussel sprouts. The atmosphere in the restaurant is very inviting and cozy. The service was very attentive and friendly. All in all, highly recommended.

CARRABBA'S ITALIAN GRILL BIRMINGHAM REVIEWS

We were greeted at the door by professional person who quickly seated us. Waitress was quick to come to our table asked for drink orders and came back with warm bread and spices, orders were placed and quirked served and her and another staff member. We watched the overall flow the restaurant. It looked like a well oiled machine, great teamwork. Impressed by more than just wait staff, they took just a minute more to interact with us. Great job. Food and service was impressive.

Many good options with delicious food. They immediately provide you with bread along with a paste of olives& basil that you can add olive oil to. We got the chicken trio and pollo rosa maria. Service was fast and waitress was very friendly and helped us in deciding among the options. Will definitely be coming here more often.

Delightful restaurant. The service is always excellent. The food is perfectly prepared. Carrabba's provides a nice atmosphere and doesn't break the bank.

AMORE RISTORANTE ITALIANO REVIEWS

I took my best friend to Amore for her birthday and had the BEST experience! Even with a larger group, we had outstanding service, quick and officiant. We waited a a few extract minutes for our table, but were surprised with the complimentary appetizers that came upon being sat. Their house salad and vodka pasta were a DREAM. I will definitely be returning on my next trip to Birmingham.

I loved this place! My parents have been here before, but it was my first time! One bite into their pasta, and you will want more of Amore. Amore is more than a restaurant; it’s a high-quality experience in ambiance, service, and food.

Our server (I believe Tom) was OUTSTANDING! Very nice, informative, and surprised us with a creme brûlée after we told him it was our anniversary. All of the food was very fresh and delicious. Cesar Salad, lobster ravioli, Chicken parmesan with risotto, and the creme brûlée.
