“ We came in for lunch and sat at the bar with Julie. The food was amazing - we had fried artichokes, shrimp scampi, and tortellini. Julie was super attentive, fun to hang out with, and makes great drinks. We had a good time and will definitely be back. ”
“ Courteous and welcoming service. The atmosphere is old world Italian but not stodgy. Have gf offerings for pasta dishes with a slight upcharge. Enjoyed a Generous portion of eggplant Parmesan . Delicioso!! Now that's Italian!!!! Lunch and dinner hours to enjoy during the week. ”
“ I can't say enough to praise the manager and staff at this restaurant. My son, who lives in Texas, insisted that he wanted his favorite Italian food from Bartolino's for his Christmas present. I felt totally overwhelmed with this problem. I talked to the manager about my problem, and he had his staff cut , wrap, and freeze a large pizza, bag and freeze 3 orders of toasted ravioli, and bag and freeze an order of tortellini, and freeze 2 plastic cartons of tortellini cream sauce and a carton of meat sauce for the ravioli. It was frozen and in a large bag when I picked it up. I was able to transport the order to Texas in a carryon suitcase with the food packed with ice wrapped in a towel, in a large kitchen trash bag. I could not have done this with the help of the Bartolino's staff. I love their food too. ”

“ Bartolino's is always a great choice! I'd never been to this location until this year and I've been three times now. I have used their private space twice for company events, big and small and they do an exceptional job. Truly exceptional. Service is exceptional, management is exceptional, food is exceptional. If you ever need a spot to host a private party or happy hour, you can't go wrong booking your event here they make it so easy and everything is absolutely delicious. They also catered very well to our vegetarians. My favorite appetizers are the caprese salad, artichokes, calamari, and seafood stuffed mushrooms. They also have a fantastic mixed drink menu and guess what - the cocktails are exceptional! ;) Nothing but love for Bartolino's South! ”
“ My wife and I went to Bartolino's south last night and enjoyed one of our favorite meals. We both had the sole ferri with white pasta and a Caesar salad. The fish was cooked to perfection. It was flaky and well seasoned. It is a lighter meal . The white pasta was creamy with a nice garlic sauce but not overpowering. The Caesar salad was fresh and crisp. Angela our waitress was very attentive and was excellent to work with she definitely took care of our every need. We were seated in the back room which is kind of plain but better lighting compared to the main dining room. I had an Italian beer and my wife had the Bartolino's tea which she said was excellent my beer was also good. ”
“ Today was the second time I have dined at Bartolino's in south county, and I was not disappointed! We were initially greeted by friendly staff who quickly took us to our tables (indoors). I had forgotten how small of a restaurant Bartolino's is! It really provides for an intimate dining experience. The darker lighting and the decor bring with it an upscale experience for a night out. I appreciated that each table came with a light that, with a simple tap, could change the lighting as needed. We started off with the fried cheese (similar to mozzarella sticks) that were accompanied by marinara sauce. Each order came with 5 fried cheese and they were some of the better mozzarella stick esque dishes we have had in a while. We then ordered two dinner salads that were dressed in a sweet house dressing. The salad was solid, but we would probably skip this on our next visit. Finally, for our entrees, we ordered the chicken parm and chicken risotto. The chicken parm was great with a ton of cheese (provel?) on top. The chicken risotto was the star of the show. Hands down the best risotto I have ever had!! It was so creamy and cheesy- just perfect! It's the risotto that helps solidly Bartolino's as a 5 star restaurant for me. Of note, I do think Bartolino's recently updated their menu. The menu online is a little different in price and selection to what is available online. Overall, this is a great restaurant that, though it is a little pricey ($100 for us), is a fun place to try on a night out in town! ”
“ I was there for a birthday, party of 4. The restaurant is "old world elegance". The prices are not cheap, but the quality is definitely worth it. Our waiter was good, but our buss boy was great, a veteran. Their selection of bourbons is extensive. Servings are huge, so be prepared to share or take a doggy bag home. They were out of escargot, which was really a bummer for me, but plenty of other good appetizers. The tables are placed closely together , so maneuvering with a walker (one of our party had one) could be difficult, but when I made the reservation I told the person we had a walker with us and she placed us strategically near everything. One person in our partly had strict sodium restrictions, and they were able to accommodate that without any issue. I will definitely be going back! ”
“ Date night done right!!!! Bartolinos South never disappoints!!! If you are in a hurry this is NOT your place. Make reservations especially for a Friday or Saturday night. Our server Michael was on his game as he had several big parties going on but always checked in on his little table for "2". Drinks were killer .... Dirty Martini w/Blue Cheese Olives and a Bourbon Smash The Fried Artichokes with a Lemon Ailoi hit the spot. Highly recommend if you like artichokes. We always get our favorite dishes and share! Seafood Risotto and Linguine with Clams!!! Whatever your favorite is you will be happy!!! We got so much food we have plenty for lunch the next day unless our daughter gets to it before we do!!!!
