Our server Layla was very nice and attentive. I liked the veal and my daughter liked her pizza. I overheard another server at the table behind us ask a guest if she didn't like something she ordered because she hadn't eaten much of it. I couldn't hear her response but then I heard the server say she would take the item off their bill. I thought that was a very stand up thing to do - very classy and ethical. Two thumbs up on doing the right thing!! 👍👍

We chose here based on the history and Alfredo is my son’s favorite dish. It was his birthday celebration so what better place to stop! We were greeted instantly with warm vibes and light jokes. The service was fast and attentive. Our server went above and beyond in every way and was so kind. The food came quickly and was delicious. Way above expectation. Thanks for a great dinner and environment for our kiddos 12th birthday! The patio was cozy and had the perfect amount of holiday vibe. I hope to make it back to Cleveland again someday to eat here again!

My bf and I had a really great experience at this restaurant. We’d been looking for places with nice patios, and this one was absolutely perfect. It’s located in little Italy and seemed like it’s one of the oldest restaurants in Cleveland. The food was quite delicious but felt quite overpriced, mainly the pasta. There was a pianist playing during dinner, which made the whole evening feel more romantic and special. We’d love to come back and try the lasagna next time!

🌟 A Meal to Remember – Thank You for Making It Special 🌟 After finishing my last round of chemo, we wanted to mark the occasion with something meaningful (a good meal shared with my husband). We chose Guarino's in Little Italy, and it turned out to be the perfect! From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel welcomed and cared for. They didn’t just serve us food — they gave us an experience filled with warmth, kindness, and that meant more than words can express. My lasagna and my husband's spaghetti and meatballs were absolutely delicious! The atmosphere was calm and inviting, just what we needed after such a long and emotional day. Thank you to everyone for taking care of us! Your hospitality and excellent food turned a simple lunch into something truly memorable. We will never forget your kindness! We’ll definitely be back, this time to celebrate health and new beginnings!

This is a very nice Italian Restaurant located in the heart of a little Italy., They have a great outdoor patio under beautiful shade trees. The indoor restaurant is large and room and the atmosphere is classic. They have their own parking lot, which is very convenient. .
