Unfortunately the hype around Massimo's is far-overrated. Yes, they have linen tablecloths, but that doesn't make a quality restaurant. First and foremost, the food has to be good. And at Massimo's, sadly, the food is only mediocre. It's average Italian fare with nothing special to recommend it. Very heavy-handed, too. Maybe it used to be good, but restaurants change, and I'm afraid this has not changed for the better. And that means it is far over-priced for what it offers.

This used to be a 5-star (at least 4.5) experience just about every time. Food not nearly as good now.

Italian, Fast Food
A less than typical italian food restaurant. They have an americanized Italian Menu without a lot of true italian food. But what they serve is good food. The alfredo sauce is to die for adn is great with the Chicken Fettuccine.
Italian, Fast Food
There's a good reason you see a line out the door almost every day after 6PM. Food is very good. Portions excellent. Kids love the bread sticks, kids' plates and your whole family will probably love the salad. What do they put in that dressing?!

A great Italian place for a romantic evening. Food is pricey, but very good. Private booths for seclution, a good wine list and good service.

Definately reccomend this place for a nice romantic dinner.
