“ One of the few places I feel hasn't changed through the years! The food is absolutely delicious, the drinks are always well-made, and the waiting staff is very professional and friendly. We come here anytime we get the chance for a night in Mishawaka! ”
“ The food was WONDERFUL! Though I think we may have enjoyed the bread & appetizers more than the main coarse. The portions were very generous. The server was one of the best we've had. She was friendly but professional, very quick but didn't make us feel rushed at all. She deserved every bit of the tip we left her. We will definitely eat here again. ”
“ Jeff was great! He made the night super special with his friendly attitude and his sense of humor...and he kept the bread coming! He deserves 100000 stars. If you are ever in town, make sure to stop by Papa Vino’s to pay Jeff a visit. He will definitely make your night! ”
“ Great food, great prices. Amazing service. The atmosphere was super peaceful and comforting! The bread that they give you is amazing and sooo fluffy. Its perfect! I left my wallet on accident and they were super nice and kept is safe for me for 3 days! Everyone was super polite and friendly ”
“ You see, I have come twice to this place in less than 7 days, and I'm not the greatest fan of Italian food ! I fell in love with their shrimp ravioli. My husband tried the salmon florentine and salmon Mediterranean on two different occasions; I think the salmon florentine was better. We tried the classic tiramisu and strawberry tiramisu. I liked the classic one most. Their raspberry cheesecake is also worth trying. The bread they serve at the beginning was okay, but the dipping oil was good. They serve quickly, have a nice interior, plenty of parking spots and friendly staff. ”
“ Absolutely a great place to dine. Went for my birthday dinner and it did not disappoint. From the very start, our service was spectacular. From our waitress noticing it was my birthday while checking my ID, to her putting a candle in my cheesecake and singing happy birthday. The food was splendid with very generous portions. The sangria was absolutely delicious and refreshing. Will definitely return again and most certainly recommend. ”
“ I suggest reservations regardless of party size but for sure any group over 4. We were there on Mother’s Day and it was very busy. We were seated in the time they told us, but it was nearly 45 minutes. The server was friendly, but very busy. We had a good experience overall but our server could have been more attentive as our drinks ran dry and weren’t offered desert, to-go boxes, or the check until we flagged them down and asked. ”
“ The third time eating here and it's a favorite! They have bread dipping first thing, drink menu, food menu, and dessert menu. My favorite drink is a blackberry vanilla Italian creme soda! I can't remember the name of my sister's drink but she loved it! (Lemon something) I'm never disappointed with the food! ”
