Followed a chef and it was worth the follow. The food was definitely above average. I enjoyed a great glass of wine from a very extensive wine list, a subtle appetizer and the chicken marsala. It was well balanced with Marsala wine and mushroom, not over powering the actual flavor of the chicken. the garnish was adequate and tasty, well seasoned and well prepared. The ambience was slightly dated but nice. I don't know that I would change a thing. We were greeted by the owner, Steve, and he made sure that we enjoyed our entire experience. I would recommend this restaurant and will definitely go back.

Food was decent. Service was superb, they were very friendly and attentive to my needs. Ambiance is extraordinary. Owner came over to talked to us. Valet is available for $10, I would make sure you have a reservation before you go.

This spot is top notch. Quality. I will always dine when in town. Security is also 10. I'll always be your 4. Class act in action. Lighting and seating is cozy. Of course it's par for the course of excellence in dining. I trust and eat what I am served. Graciously so. 5 stars. Not to be misunderstood. D. All of thee above. Professional and grateful for every greeting.

This is not a Real Italian nor is it a good American Italian restaurant. It's a true vanity restaurant.The decor was designed by someone that hangs Soprano photos in their personal bathroom and dreams it was them in the picture. The liquor bottle cages are for the vane regulars that want to tell everyone they have money to burn but no taste in the alcohol so long it's expensive. Anyone giving 5 stars to this place has probably never eaten out in their life or think the 80s was height of class and food.The food is catering standard at best. The chef lacks the skill alluded to on the menu. Vegetables are the only thing the kitchen is good at doing. The "famous" trout tastes of burnt flour. They cook their meat perfectly (at least the meat dishes we had) but then dump bland sauce all over it and I wouldn't be surprised if it came from a package. The food isn't awful but way overpriced for what you get. They are overcharging to make you think you are getting quality but it just highlights how overpriced the 1970s food is.The loud music gets annoying fast. The MI Legislative Proclamation in the entrance is the biggest insult when you read it after you eat here. It's truly a vanity project restaurant that caters to people that only want to show off how vane they are to others. TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY. The more I think about this experience the more annoyed that I went to this place.

Wonderful birthday dinner here. Went with a few friends to celebrate our birthdays. Staff was very friendly and allowed us to bring our own cake. This was my first time here and it did not disappoint. If you're looking for an old school Italian place this is your spot. We ordered a few different martinis which were all delicious. Complimentary bread was delicious. We ordered the shrimp lelli and crust cauliflower for appetizers, both were very flavorful. For entrees I ordered the chicken lelli which came with mashed potatoes and green beans. Hubby ordered the lamb chops which were also delicious. Overall we had a great time here and we will definitely be back

Absolutely love this place. I should have taken pictures of the new interior, it's beautiful. The staff is extremely welcoming. We had an event on the outside deck. It is lovely out there. You have a nice view of the golf course. Plenty of room. The outside area has its own bar. The staff were very attentive. Highly recommend for dinner or a private event. They have a large wine selection too. We got all appetizers for our event and they were delicious.

I came here for my friend's birthday dinner. I ordered the calamari. It was tasty, the sauce made it even better. This restaurant is beautiful. It's a great place for date night or girls night. The service was great and the waiter was very friendly.

Went to this restaurant the day after Christmas and had a great experience. The calamari was excellent, and the sauce that accompanied it was really good. The Caesar salad was good, as well as the Chateaubriand which was prepared tableside. Service was very good, they accommodated our needs very well.

Valentines Day! As a past server - Amateur night. We like to call it!The service was NOT good... We sat for an hour and had to ask our server for our soup and salad. Our server was NOT apologetic just made some excuses. We are not drinkers but ordered a glass of wine. We finally got our soup/salad and then food. He did not necessarily check on us, but, he whizzed by and since we previously said we did not want another glass of wine he said he would get us one on the house for the delay. The wine was NOT even what we had previously ordered... SERIOUSLY?! I was excited to order a Valentines dessert but we waited SO long for our server to get back to the table that we just asked for a box and a bill when he finally came. The service was inexcusable and left us not enjoying our evening out. We go out often and are very rarely disappointed, let alone at an establishment that "supposedly" is upper scale. VERY DISAPPOINTING, will not be back... The food was okay which is the only reason I am giving 2 stars. Nice way to ruin a special evening. Thank goodness for the server that 20% gratuity was included. I am a great tipper but would have had to think long and hard what this guy deserved. It's almost like he knew gratuity was included so he didn't have to give good service! Shame on you Lelli's!!!

Horrible Valentine's Day experience. Got there and despite having a reservation had to wait in a line starting at the host stand and going out the door to even check in for our reservation. Stood in line for 20 minutes until we reached the host stand. We were basically connected to another table with a random couple we did not know with how close these tiny tables were. They were definitely not organized or prepared for a crowd. No where online or on the reservation app did it state they would have a limited menu for valentine's day. The menu was extremely limited. A couple appetizer options that did not sound appetizing at all and a couple dinner options that came with a soup or salad. Such a bummer. On top of it, the prices were hiked up through the roof! The same exact dishes on the regular daily menu were raised by $20+ just because it was valentines day...After sitting for a while, bread finally came out ice cold and drenched in oil...gross. Sat there for an hour waiting for our dinners. Chicken lelli was under-seasoned and the huge garlic chunks in the sauce were disgusting. The sauce was chunky and a cold gravy consistency/jello like. The green beans and mashed potatoes were cold and flavorless. They also added a 20% automatic gratuity despite the lack of service. For a so called "fine dining" establishment, they really missed the mark and did NOT deliver. So unorganized, unprofessional, and not classy at all. This was a very bad look for them, mainly for first time diners like ourselves. We came home sick to our stomach and nauseous and i'm writing this from the bathroom feeling extremely sick to my stomach. They definitely gave us food poisoning.
