I've been waiting to try Maialina and it was fantastic! Our table tried: nonna's meatballs, Parmesan garlic bread, calamari, Caesar salad, arugula with lemon vinaigrette, rigatoni rustica, cacio e pepe, sausage pasta and salmon. All outstanding and delicious!!!! Entrees came out steaming hot!For dessert we had pistachio cheesecake and lemon torte with berries. We will be back again!If you want a quieter experience be sure to ask for the third room. First bar area is rather noisy, and the second area to me felt like a flurry of activity.

We stopped in for devour and you definitely get your moneys worth that's for sure! So much food!The atmosphere is nice and the service was great. There's really nothing bad to say about this place, but there's also nothing really that stood out. I started with a dirty martini (w blue cheese stuffed olives) and while it wasn't a big issue I did find it odd that only one of my olives was stuffed with blue cheese. The food was all good, but the pasta dishes aren't anything you can't make at home - with maybe more flavor. It's a fun spot to come for drinks and apps or dinner with friends. We all split the devour appetizers among everyone (meatballs and bruschetta) and then got a side order of the shrimp fondue (SO GOOD!). I then got a Caesar salad and vodka pasta as my main. I wont order the vodka pasta again, not much flavor. We each got the different desserts - cannoli cake was so good.

I can't get enough of the vodka pasta. It's soooo good. I've tried other pastas and flatbreads and they are all wonderful too, but I always want to go back for that vodka pasta! Almost all of their dishes can be made with gluten free pasta or gluten free flatbread.I love the atmosphere here too. It's a cozy neighborhood Italian restaurant where you can just as easily meet up with friends and family, or enjoy date night. The servers are friendly and the bartenders are comfortable chatting with anyone.

Absolutely love Maialina. It's a fav spot for us and we took my family here for my birthday. Drinks were excellent and so was the food. The bruschetta and cheese bread are delicious. I ordered an espresso martini, with pesto ravioli and it's heavenly. The atmosphere is dark and moody inside which is great for a date night.

We were able to snag a last minute reservation at this home-y Italian restaurant in Fountain Square. Dimly lit, with a romantic feel, this place was perfect for a date night. Jordan was our waitress and she was very friendly and attentive. My date ordered the apple cider mule and raved about it! I tried their Caesar salad, which was prob in mytop 5 Caesar's I've ever had. Very delicious. We ordered the chicken vodka rigatoni and the chicken parm and we savored both dishes. Note- the rigatoni was a bit Al dente, so if you're like me and prefer a softer bite, it may be worth mentioning. For a very affordable, authentic Italian dinner, add Maialina's to your list!

First time here. Great data night spot. Cocktails really good as was the calamari. Service was awesome. My pics aren't any different from what already posted. We had the vongole, which I loved! Just right amount of spice. Husband has spaghetti and meatballs and practically licked the plate. Will return for sure.

If you're looking for good Italian food with big portions, this is the place to go! I loved how Al dente the noodles were and each pasta dish we got was so flavorful and unique. We also got the calamari appetizer which was pretty good. Wish it was a little more crispy. The garlic Parmesan bread had the right amount of cheese and garlic. Loved the softness of the bread mixed with all creamy and melty cheese. Our server was very knowledgeable about the menu and helpful as we were ordering. He also made sure to check in frequently with us.The vibes at the restaurant were perfect for a small group dinner.

This was my first time dining at Maialina, and I've passed it countless times without realizing where the entrance was! After finding the side door, we were seated pretty quickly, and the server came over to take our drink order within five minutes. While he was pleasant enough, his service didn't really stand out--nothing to rave about, but no complaints either.We ordered his suggestion of a Cabernet Sauvignon, which was priced around $80. We also tried a few appetizers: artichokes, fig and sausage flatbread, and a basic Italian salad. The food arrived in a reasonable amount of time, but the salad came out long after the other dishes and was missing the salami. I had to wait a bit before the server noticed and brought it over, but by then, the salad had already lost some of its appeal.The fig and sausage flatbread was a standout--really flavorful and enjoyable. The artichokes were good too, but the salad... well, it was a disappointment. The taste was subpar, and for the price, it certainly wasn't worth it. I wouldn't order it again, especially since it didn't even come out correctly in the first place.All in all, Maialina has some great menu items, but there are definitely some kinks in the service and execution. The delayed salad and underwhelming quality left me a bit disappointed. Would I come back? Maybe, but I'd probably skip the salad next time.
