IL Villaggio Authentic

"I give it 5 stars for the taste of the food only. I know in the last few years everything has have gone up all over but for 2 people to spend $120 and no drinks to me is a lot esp when the portions are so small. Again I don’t expect the food to overflow the dish BUT we ordered chicken parm from other places and you get 2 cutlets of nice size. We got a small/medium cutlet and we substituted pasta for a vegetable and we asked if we can substitute and we were told yes for what ? We said a vegetable. The response what type ? Well what do you have ? So not helpful and again 2 meals, 2 salads, no drinks and only coffee all for $120.00, honestly it looked like a kids meal. Not totally disappointed the taste was very good. we tried it don’t won’t go back."

"We last went about a year ago and loved this restaurant. We rarely go out to eat which is why so much time has gone by. We were disappointed this time around, it’s not the way we remembered. The bread was just slices of toast, definitely not homemade. Mussel appetizer was so small, only 10 mussels. Portions overall were on the small side, especially the lobster ravioli. Overall it was only okay, but not the restaurant we knew before (and recommended to so many people!)"

"My wife and I went here on a Wednesday a few minutes after 3pm( they open at 3) . That being said we were the only ones there . We were greeted by the owners (husband and wife ) . Both were very friendly and informative on their food . I had the the Chicken Marsala and my Wife had the Pappardelle ( short rib ragu). Both dishes were excellent , and the pasta is made in house (another plus fresh) . We both shared a insalate , roasted beets(whipped goat cheese pistachio and orange vinaigrette ). Again another winner it was different and very good . We end with and espresso and a latte with the house made Tiramisu . To no surprise this to was excellent . So to cap this off , excellent host excellent service excellent food very fair prices to self favor. Check it out."

"A small family run Italian Restaurant in the Heart of Mahopac. The Wait staff was friendly and very attentive. They created a dish for us that was not on the actual menu which was really good and nice of them to do so. The pasta dishes that we had were really good and you could tell and taste that they were made fresh. Highly recommend to try the place out. Will be back to try other dishes."

"I had my birthday dinner there tonight with my friends. Everything was amazing! Freshly baked bread, calamari to die for! Branzino cooked just the way I like it! The service and staff were wonderful! You have to go there!"
