Vendetti’s Pizza Pasta Grill Gainesville

Vendetti's food has always been awesome - my mouth is watering just thinking about their Emilia-romana ravioli. It is exceptional. But I've found the service to be sometimes lacking. The Emilia-romana ravioli is perfection. Cheese filled pillows of pasta swimming in a creamy marinara sauce with chicken and melted mozzarella on top. I want to try other things but I love this one so much I keep going back for it! The Midlands chicken is perfection for a spring or summer day - grilled chicken with a light and lemony basil butter sauce over chicken, sun dried tomatoes and veggies. The saltimbocca alla Romana is a heavier dish to warm you in the winter with prosciutto wrapped chicken, spinach and provolone cheese in a Madeira wine demo-glacé sauce. The pizzas have a thin crust and high qual

What can I say, I brought the family in and we got water and a bunch of different foods. Italian Sandwich was dry and just nasty. My pizza was good, but the toppings were raw. Mozzarella Stix were good. Garlic cheese bread was good! Now my water, after 20 minutes she comes back and is refilling water, she refills my water and then walks away. I drink some and it’s NOT water!!! It’s bleach water!!!! Can’t make this up!!!! I tell the waitress and have her try it and she’s like no, and says I’m just going to pour that pitcher out….. I’m at home pulling right now!!! I can’t suggest this place! Go to city park pizza, definitely don’t go to this nasty place…..

The food overall was great. The only thing I experienced on my 1st visit that I didn't like was, they brought out the salad, then said the food would be right out. So we felt rushed to eat the salad before the pizza came out. Also, the salad was still a little wet. Should have been dry. But other than that, the pizza me and my wife had was really good. My son had a build your own pasta dish that looked amazing. We will be back

I order Eggplant Parmigiana at every Italian restaurant I visit across the country including NYC. This restaurant has the BEST I have ever had! My husband was thrilled with his Chicken Alfredo with a side of meatballs. The Spinach Salad we shared was delicious also. Grace was our server and she was exceptional - knowledgeable, friendly and efficient! We will be frequent customers to try our other menu items.

I first noticed this when quaint Italian restaurant when visiting NoFo Brew next door last year. I went for lunch with a friend to see how it was. The interior was vast with pleanty seats for a big crowd. The menu had a lot to offer besides pasta and pizza. They also had sandwiches, salads, parmigianas and marsalas. I ordered a veal parmigiana sandwich while my friend had a chicken alfredo pasta. We also got some garlic rolls on the side. We were in awe at the generous portion sizes of our meals. The veal parmigiana was delicious and savory while my friend also had similar things to say about his pasta. Overall, it was a good experience and I would recommend this place to people who want to eat authentic Italian food at an affordable price. Shout to our sever Hunter who did a fantastic job
