First time going here and it felt like I had been going here for years! The staff was very friendly and made you feel like family. Kaitlyn was our server and she was very informative about the dishes and gave a very good description of what we asked her about. We decided on the trio appetizer which I chose the calamari, garlic knots, and waffle fries. All very good. We ordered a side salad which was brought with some dinner rolls. So by the time we finished that our entrees arrived! We ordered the classic lasagna and the pasta with meat Bolognese. Of course we took a few bites since we were already full! But that's ok cause we took it to go. Also took home the tiramisu and the s'mores cannolis. All scrumptious!! Very flavorful and made with love

1st time here and the food was Delicious...it did take a minute to get our food and it wasn't that busy but other than that our waiter was super friendly, atmosphere was great and most importantly the food didn't disappoint at all! We had the Detroit style pan pizza, fettuccine alfredo, and the lasagna everything tasted homemade!

It’s our first time to eat here. I would have given it 5 stars but a few of the food we wanted to order were not available. We changed our order to the chicken marsala. Vodka rigatoni, stuffed shells, caramel apple cannoli and tiramisu. Everything was delicious. The service was amazing.

My oldest daughter and I was looking for a new place to eat. I found this place. We both really enjoyed it from beginning to end. They were very nice, very pleasant, very welcoming. The food was delicious. Everything was great! We would definitely come back here again!

My friends and I dined at Eddie's Italian Eatery back on 11/30/24. I had something called Chicken Fonduta (the first photo). It was fantastic. Everyone enjoyed what they ordered too. As an added bonus, our waiter / server was quite attentive. I'll definitely go back. Just a note... I substituted the default pasta for fettuccine with my Chicken Fonduta. I recommend the substitution.

I had the linguine and clams and my kiddo had the sausage in a marinara sauce. Both were just amazing. Sausage was one of the best I've had since my great-grandfather used to cook for us. Also had a pretty darn tasty bread pudding. The challenge was we couldn't eat it all ,though we wanted to be able to eat it all.

The food was outstanding! I was really craving some good pasta, heard about Eddies and figured today was the day to try it. The Lasagna was so delicious, it was just a great balance of flavors and seasoning. The sauce was great. Nice size portion as well. The Spaghetti with marina sauce and meatballs was great! Again, great balance of flavors and seasoning, the sauce was on point! Meatballs were seasoned well and were moist, good size, as well. Spaghetti with meat sauce and Italian sausage was on point! Very delicious and seasoned just right. Staff were very friendly and polite, this is definitely our new favorite Italian restaurant. If you haven't tried, you have to stop by. *We love extra sauce, so I asked for extra sauce for each.
