Luigi's Patio Ristorante

"Food was just so so. I got a margarita pizza and ceasar salad. The salad wasn't worth the $12. Not much lettuce to it and the dressing was very watery and had a lemon taste to it. I was expecting something creamy. As for pizza.....about time I found a place that uses fresh mozzarella BUT the rest of the pizza was just meh. The crust was thinner than I was expecting and had a pepper flavor to it. Besides the cheese, there wasn't much other than tomatos which seemed like canned stewed tomatoes. The basil was a good amount so that helped but I ended up just eating the cheese and nothing else after 2 pieces. Maybe their other dishes are worth it. I'm here for business so might try it again."

"I drive through Starbucks regularly and have seen this restaurant as I sit waiting for my coffee and I've wanted to try it. Today I had the opportunity to take a moment away from caring for my father next door at Scott and White hospital to have lunch with my friend Michelle here. I ordered the tuna and the waiter asked how I would like it cooked, he recommended medium rare which I agreed with. Unfortunately when it arrived it was very dry and overcooked. The orzo was tasteless and really required a huge amount of herbs and spices in order to make it palatable. I asked for chili flake but unfortunately it never arrived. Based on this one trip in I cannot honestly recommend this restaurant to anybody but it was really nice to be able to catch up with my friend Michelle whose mom is also in the hospital! I did order and thoroughly enjoyed the calamari. That is the only dish at this point that I can recommend."

"This place sell the Sweet Apple Pork Ribeye as pork meat, but it is a grilled chicken breast. A waiter came to see the plate and agreed it was chicken breast, he took the plate to kitchen and few minutes later came back to confirm and say that it was their pork ribeye, proceed to offer me the same plate that went to the kitchen or a new one. Very disrespectful."

"What a gem in College Station. So glad we found this place. Fine Italian food and dessert! Plus live jazz? Whoah, hard to beat. The Bolognese was very authentic and delicious! The cheesecake is a must have. I've not had cheesecake this good in years! Will definitely visit regularly when in town."

"You start out in an unremarkable strip mall and are teleported upon entrance to an Italian Piazza! Wow! Food and service (Carson was an outstanding server) were truly remarkable and the live music added an elegant touch. We were rewarded with unique creations like seafood crepes and veal scallopini saltimboca. Look forward to returning!"
