    Sinatra/Dean Martin the whole time 😍👌 You've gotta try the mozzarella marinara! The raspberry lemonade is delightful + Kim the waitress is super cool! :)

    The best value is from the today/tomorrow menu. Order one entree for dinner, get a 2nd entree (already refrigerated) to take home.

    Traditional Italian cuisine, great atmosphere, I've ordered chicken parmeasan and it was great, the portion is big so it's good for sharing. I like how they had a lighter option for most of the meals

    When we first saw Maggiono's in Philadelphia we fell in love. When we learned they have locations in many cities we went as we travelled. All of them have been wonderful.

    Tomato caprese is the best appetizer. Go for the Marcos meal, you can't get a better deal anywhere.

    New cannoli cake dessert sprinkled with pistachio. Cake was very chocolatey and the cannoli filling frosting was okay. Overall nothing special. 2.75/5

    Pretty much everything here is good. Personal favorites are: calamari, short rib ravioli, chicken Parm, apple crostata.

    I like Italian foods but I don't love it. The food is good but shouldn't need to wait over 30 minutes for a table, and at their price. However, I heard the rigatoni is good.

    Pesto Perlini Mozzarella was disappointing with the lack of pesto flavor and dry chicken ricotta meatballs. 1.75/5

    Maggiano's is not good. I've dined at the ones in NJ, Vegas, and this one in Orange County. Uninteresting Italian-American food. Not even comparable to the family owned Italian restaurants in NJ/NYC.
