We had heard great things about this restaurant, so we were looking forward to dining. First, we were seated in an empty dining... room in the very next table to one of the only other filled tables. We had to focus to not hear their conversation. Soon after,a larger group was seated right next to us, yet there were still open tables where we could have all been separated. Turning thelights down a bit lower would help with the cramped seating. The drinks were great, although I was surprised the cocktail menuwas limited. We ordered roasted olives and it smelled odd (like dog food or an old barn) and we realized there was something offabout the sausage. It was also obvious it was microwaved and not truly roasted. The server noticed we had not touched it andapologized and removed it from our bill. The main course was good, but would have been better had it been plated differently asall the food was piled together. We ordered apple crisp for dessert which was again, obviously reheated in the microwave. Therewas no crispy topping. Overall the service was good, but we did not leave wow’d as we hoped. We would be happy to try againwith some changes. Read more

We held my step-son and daughter-in-law’s rehearsal dinner at Tutto Bene in late October 2022. It was a 4-course meal for 25... people and absolutely fantastic. The chef, Justin was easy to work with from menu planning to event details and the staff theday of the event were on point. The food was incredible, I especially loved the roasted beet salad and the crab ravioli. Mostimportantly the bride and groom had a wonderful evening. Highly recommend for a casual dinner out or a larger event. Kudos tothe chef and the wait staff! Read more

A great find! The food was outstanding. Ceaser salad is the closest thing I have had to the original in Tijuana. The scallops... were perfect and the chocolate crème brûlée melted in our mouths. Drinks were delicious. Read more

Very poor quality service. Crab ravioli doesn't taste good for the price. There are reviews where some customers have left... reasonable criticism similar to mine. My friends also left review of this restaurant before but they rudely responded to enjoyfast food.... I mean seriously? A place that doesn't accept criticism at all. Just because they said that the price and taste ofcertain foods here are not reasonable. There are many places in the world that make fine Italian food but there are places thatmake food that lacks taste. That's all I can say. Read more

From Kansas City. We come to Bemidji once a year for our summer vacation and we always stop here. This is the best place to eat.... Farmer to market quality. The food is pleasing to the eye with so much flavor. I would love it if they were in my home town.Maybe in a few years we would move to Bemidji Read more

Always a favourite stop when visiting Bemidji! Celebrated my 30th birthday here, last month. Overall, the food was great (highly... recommend their pork! I don't usually enjoy pork, but it was perfectly tender). I ordered the "risotto" and it ended up being apolenta dish. Maybe I missed it in the description that is was made with polenta but I was disappointed. Read more
