Olive Garden is better. Do yourself a favor and help put these clowns out of business. They are giving Italians and Italian cuisine a bad name.

Be sure you are on time with your party reservation or you will be treated like s**t by the likes of overworked, overstressed waiters like Misha. By the end of the night I was hoping he did not pee in my cappucino and laugh with the help in the back. Service was not worth the $650 tab we paid. Fellini's is down the street and the waiters are much more appreciative. The food was exemplary, the waiters, especially Misha, should be fired or deserves less than 2%.

I also went here with 6 people to celebrate my daughters engagement. What an embarrasment!!!!! They lost our entree and gave them to another table. We waited 45minutes between appetizers ande dinner. Ran out of cappellini and served us another pasta without asking us first. When i spoke to the manager, all her said was oh well! We are very busy. These people do not care. They just take your money and go on to the next victims. Wish i could find out who owns this place, so i can email him personally. They definitely play favorites with the seating. I am just an irish girl who will never get a decent table in this place. NEVER GO THERE. This place only deserves negative comments.

We had a Memorial Mass for a dear friend who left us at age 52. We made reservations a month before and confirmed 1 week before, 20 people, 5:30 Mass, said we would be there 6:30 -6:45. We arrived at 6:40, and they gave our table away. The owner was rude and jams people in. All he cares about is the $$$$$$. There are plenty of Italian restaurants better than this and treat you the way you should be treated. We went up the street to LaConda,they were very busy, but set up one of the back rooms and gave us excellent service. We all remembered we we got together that night, to remember our friend.

Well, what goes up must come down, and the imperious owner needs to come down off his haughty horse. There are scads of wonderful eateries in this area, why would anyone go there and be treated worse that an animal? None of will EVER cross that threshhold again, and I would tell anyone not to go there. This owner is a miserable man with poor scruples .... IF THERE'S NO ROOM, TELL THE CALLER THAT, DON'T LIE AND MAKE PEOPLE SUFFER. Go anywhere else, not to Trattoria Guiseppes.

We made reservations (five adults and one child) for 5:30 pm, arrived at 5:10pm and was seated immediately. Yes, it was crowded on this Sunday, but the overall experience was great. We brought a bottle of wine for our family too. We had the best calamari and musseals ever. Everyone throughly enjoyed their meal and the cost with the tip 20% was $144. Funny but we had the "older blonde waitress" that was mentioned in one of the reviews and she was very accomodating. My wife and I are planning to go back asap. Give it a try you will love it as we did. Make it a night that you can sit, talk, and enjoy the evening. Don't go an hour before the movie starts; it takes time to make a fresh dinner but it is well the wait. Good Luck Our family had a wonderful dinner last night (my birthday)- first time there.
