Never Again!
I would not recommend eating here at all. First of all the service was horrible. From the moment we were seated we waited and waited and the only times our waiter came up to us was to take our order and when it was time to pay. He had some guy who did not appear as a waiter at all dressed in jeans and a cap deliver our salads. It was unbelievable. The food was not even that good. I would definetly not recommend this restraunt to anybody. Oh and one more thing, dont get the calamari...it was rubbery and tasted as if it had been reheated. Yuk!

Great Italian food!
I was visiting San Antonio last October and had the chance to eat at this fine restaurant. I had spaghetti with sausage and loved it. Overall its probably one of the best Italian restaurants I've eaten at. The only down side of this place is that its not open Sundays.

Excellent
Great place to go for a meal or a glass of wine. You can tell this place is family owned. If the guy in the kitchen speaks Italian, and the staff speaks Italian, it must be Italian! Oh, and by the way, the "person" that criticized saying that the Calimai was "rubbery"...DUHHH! When is Calamari NOT rubbery? The Cioppino is a bargain and the hostess is the mostest!

HORRIBLE FOOD
On 8/15/2006 I went to this famous place and expected too much plus our meal took over an hour to arrive; I ordered eggplant with proscuitto, sounds good. Well it wasn't the menu said thinly sliced eggplant with the famous ham that is supposed to be pink and almost transluscent. When it came it was the thickest eggplant parmagiana with spoiled meat covered in cheese and sauce, breaded and oh yea and it was not hot, aleast not 150 degrees. I wuld have said something but the waiter never came back until the bill. AWWWW this place may have been great at one time but is nowhere in the realms of Piccolo's! Please don't bother and if you do get pizza but then again go to Florio's or Maria's Pizza for that.

Excellent Pizza
All of the Italian dishes served here are good but the pizza is always top notch. The service from both the waitstaff and the owner's is excellent.

The reviewers are all correct
I've been to Little Italy a lot. We used to live about three blocks away so it was easy!

Best Italian food in town.
I love Little Italy. I've been there a million times and have always left happy. The food is delicious, the portions are generous, and they serve you a complimentary slice of cheese pizza! The resturaunt is owned by an Italian family and they're very nice people. I do not eat at any other Italian resturaunt in San Antonio because they pale in comparison. This is the best Italian food I've ever had and I wish they could duplicate it and put one in Austin. :)

Old School, dominent dough flavor style pizza
It is an old school place. Similar to European style dining. One of the better Italian restaurants in SA. Portions of appetizers, slaads/soups, and desserts are small Prices are average (recently increased). The bread is baguette/French style like in Europe. Little Italy's bread is good quality though. Pizza has what I call a "dominent dough flavor(DDF)." In DDF pizza, the taste of the ingrediants blend into the taste of the dough, resulting in a powerful doughy taste. This taste has existed in Tony's, Tombstone, and various other ready-to-go oven/microwave pizzas however, on a much lower scale. Their tomato sauce and gravy are execellent. Strong veal, spinach, and pasta. Choices of sauces are given for pastas. Caesar salad is strong. The desserts are delicticious but small. Service is OK if present at the right time, when it is not packed. Personally, I am being objective, I do not like this place that much because I am too american style fickeled and prefere more quantity in servings. I despise baguette/french bread and I do not like the ddf style of pizza, though theirs are good. My favorite places currently are Pompeii (slightly better quality and grater quantity for slightly lower price) for fine dining. Pizabella is my prime parlor for pizza.

Best pizza in San Antonio.
That's all we've had so far and looking forward to more. The large 18 inch is huge and filling. We think it is what pizza was meant to be like. Forget Papa Johns.

Good Food and Great price
I am from New York and one of the things I miss is good pizza and Italian. I was starting to get worried since people keep giving me suggestions and they all missed the mark. But I have to say I really enjoyed little Italy. When you go they give everyone a small taste of their pizza which I hear is the best. The pizza was great but I tried the stuffed shells because no one makes that or manicotti around here. The portions are smaller than most restaurants but just right. We eat too much food anyway. We also tried the tortellini, baked ziti and sausage and meatballs. Everything was awesome. Don't let the outside judge the food on the inside. I would definitely go back and try again but next time it will be all about the pizza.....

nice family owned place
I've been a few times (would go more if I lived closer) and have really enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. It is a small and cozy place and is great for a casual bite to eat or a romantic dinner for two. The appetizers were good and they bring a free slice of cheese pizza before your meal. I have not tried the other pizza, but the entrees are good.

great Italian restaurant!
We have been to Little Italy approximately 6 times since finding it 6 months ago. We love their food---and prices are fair. One of our favorite restaurants in San Antonio!

solid A-
We've been 3 times in the last 3 months. The food was great all 3 times, it tasted home made or at least prepared fresh. The salads, soups and bread were decent also...especially the chicken and vegetable soup! The servic was a bit inconsistent, you do have to track down the waiters sometimes...weekdays are not as much fun, weekends seem better or at least we felt the service was more attentive. Other than that, great place to take visitors from out of town, great food and a homey feel from the management/ownership.

Cheapened Down
My husband & I really thought they "cheapened down" their product(s). The fried calimari appetizer we ordered used to be fresh fried calimari. Now it seems like they buy a pre-made bag of frozen battered calamari in bulk from Sysco & fry it up. And the marinera sauce that came w/ the calimari was like chunky ketchup & tabasco sauce. The margherita pizza was the only good thing. And even that didn't have fresh garlic on it like I had ordered. It was jarred diced-up garlic. Probably won't go back. They didn't even offer me a drink while I waited for my order (that should have been done because I ordered ahead of time for pick-up). They wanted to charge me $2.95 for an iced-tea!

Delightful dining experience
I am new to San Antonio, and I was thrilled to be introduced to Little Italy. The restaurant's interior reminds me of a cute little Italian restaurant I used to go to when I was growing up in Chicago. We were warmly greeted at the door, and led to a cozy booth for two. The service was excellent, and the pizza was absolutely delicious. Being able to carry on a conversation at dinner is very important to me, and the ambiance is just right. I have nothing but good things to say about this charming Italian restaurant, and will be a regular from now on.Worldwide > United States > San Antonio, TX > Seafood Restaurants
