Authentic Italian Food 5 Star Rating - World class

I have eaten in Villa Masconi's on several occasions since the late 1980's and I must say they are not only consistent , but have gotten better. The menu has so much to offer, but I am a cream sauce lover so I stick to those dishes. My dinner guests have never been disappointed. The service is impeccable and friendly. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Pros: Food, service, ambience

WOW! 5 Star Rating - World class

I had a great time at this cozy place. Was just like walking into grandma's house...everyone was so nice and friendly. Who we thought was the grandma in this family owned business came out to greet us goodbye, gave us a hug. One of the waiters told us why espresso served in America comes with a lemon peel. It was one of the best, if not the best, italian restaurants I've ever been to. The food was so authentic and fresh. I hardly eat out for italian since I don't think it's that hard to make pasta at home. But you definitely can't make this type of itialian food at home unless you have your own italian grandma. The six of us ordered 6 dishes and shared it family style. I highly recommend trying their green pasta -- but all of the dishes we had were excellent (we also had wild boar, linguine w/ clam sauce, chicken rollatini, sausage and peppers, and some other chicken dish I can't remember). They had 2 different kinds of italian beer to choose from. And don't leave before getting a cup of capaccino and dessert. The RASPBERRIES WITH ZABAGLIONE was amazing. We had strawberries instead of rasberries -- the first bite I thought I was eating champagne! All in all, excellent place for a date or group gathering for a special occasion. Never rushed, excellent service, and delicious food.

Pros: Excellent food and service. Friendly staff. Never rushed.
Cons: Hard to find parking in this area.

nice italian place in the village 4 Star Rating - Very good

Food was very tasty and fresh. Ambiance was nice and quiet ... went here on Valentine's day so it was filled with couples. We arrived early for our reservations but they had no problems seating us right away. Good inexpensive food.

The Truth 5 Star Rating - World class

This is my FAVORITE restaurant in the WHOLE WIDE WORLD! After receiving a recommendation from a co-worker, I took my boyfriend here for his birthday- BEST move I ever made. This family run business makes you part of their family with very warm welcomes. The pasta is so FRESH!! My favorite is Fettuccini alla Romano with Grilled Chicken (the chicken part is not on the menu but they accommodate it to HOWEVER you like it). The Prime Sirloin Steak is always perfectly made. You CANNOT visit this place without ordering the Calamari- you will just DIE from the delicious flavor it gives your mouth! When I get married, this will be the place I host my bridal shower. I PROMISE YOU, you will not regret eating at Villa Mosconi. They make you family, and family is forever!!

Pros: Comfortable environment, beautiful ambiance, EXCELLENT staff
Cons: That I don't live next door
