Luigi's Gourmet Italian Restaurant

This place is disgusting and the owner has a entitled attitude and the portions are small and the parking is hectic and the food was dry.

The staff [hi Helen!] Is fantastic, the food is always top notch and the chocolate cake is a must have. A great place for a birthday or anniversary also has a full bar that is separate from the dining area if you just want to go for drinks. Parking: The lot is relatively small but depending on time of day you can usually find parking at the laundromat next door.

A great place with wonderful food! It is a little cramped for larger parties so call ahead. Luigi's is a must for Italian lovers and foodies of all stripes.

If youre looking for authentic Italian this likely isnt your place. I know Italian is hard to find in the south, but it cant be marketed as fine dining and authentic if it simply isnt and should have prices that reflect that. We started with the antipasto- this is probably the worst thing that came out. The eggplant parm was thrown over lettuce that became very soggy and wet, the clams casino had a shriveled clam with nothing but breading and the shrimp are frozen. Everything is extremely under seasoned. For entrees we got the shrimp diavolo spicy level 7/10 so you can imagine my dismay when it wasnt even spicy ($28). Again, the shrimp were frozen and my initial suspicion was confirmed with the cold shrimp on the plate. The other entree was chicken a la Luigi. It came out overcooked and very bland. Beyond the food the atmosphere was sad. The place needs a revamp and take some tables out. We were back to back with another table and jokes were made about the waitresses putting plates on another table while serving the one 6 inches away. The carpets need to be replaced or cleaned and interestingly enough there was a small piano in the back that was hidden with plants that drew in gnats that I battled throughout dinner. The staff was fine, in fact I thought they were extremely polite, but again for fine dining you would have expected something else. Overall, if they marketed it as a regular Italian place and lowered prices then I probably wouldnt have batted an eye.
