The pizza here is legit. One of the better pies I've had. Great chew. This is definitely a must try. Service was on point also.

One of the most enjoyable lunches in all my 59.5 years. I ordered the pasta bolognese...and I didn't want to because I've been here before and had the eggplant, which is also stellar. The wonderful server, Tracey, recommended it. The dish was so good my toes curled.In all of North America, in all of the Mediterranean...you may find a server as kind, as dutiful, as wonderful, but none more so. She smiles and acts as if it is a true pleasure to serve. My kind of server at an Italian restaurant. Classy and professional and attentive. Ask for her if you think of it.The setting is so Italian. Even if you did not come in hungry, you would crave Italian cuisine just in the setting alone. The music pairs with it ever so well.The prices are legit as well.This is a must-go-to...stellar food and service and ambience right here in Kenner.

If you're looking for Italian in north Kenner...this is the place to go. Super great and unique brick oven pizzas (crisp with the tasty char on the ends like I always get in Italy). The Brick Oven Filet is awesome with roasted/caramelizes garlic is super good. They have about 10+ types of Italian pasta dishes and any that we've had have been very delicious. The spaghetti bolognese is an Italian sausage marina that is personal favorite. I always ask for them to sprinkle some fresh basil after the oven and that always do it. The lasagna and their fried eggplant parmesan are excellent, too. The staff is always kind and really takes care of you. The environment is that of a trattoria (small restaurants) you'll find in Italy, especially Rome). I love shrimp scampi and they have a great one with Gulf shrimp. If a place doesn't use Gulf shrimp, I won't eat it. I know they costs more and I don't mind paying a little more that are of the Gulf quality, taste, and supports our local shrimp industry.

The Brick Oven has been a staple in Kenner for many years. Unfortunately, the interior looks it. This place has not been updated since it opened. It looks like it needs a deep clean too. There is plenty of space for lots of guests or bigger families. Our waitress was very attentive and nice, but they are lacking staff. Our food came out kind of slow; it took about 45 minutes. I ordered the Spaghetti Aglio E Olio. It had a great mixture of garlic and olive oil. Overall, our food was good!

We were part of a party around 17 including 3 kids. This was the first time eating here after passing it for several years. Prices are average for the area and type of food. Let me preface this with veal is my go to when it's offered. I ordered the veal Parmesan. The veal was cut so thin and overcooked that I couldn't even cut it. It was inedible. We told the waitress and her response was so sorry but most people like it. I was very disappointed with the lackluster response and no offer to make it right. This will be my first and last time eating here. That being said the people in my party that ordered pizza enjoyed it very much.

Dinner by myself in the Big Easy. Off to a rough start - confusion on who should wait on me and extended time +5 minutes to get first wait staff to acknowledge me and take drink order.I ordered the fresh hot toasted bread - it is served with cold hard butter - I sent it back. I ordered the soup of the day it was served lukewarm, I asked for hot soup. New cup was hot. I ordered the shrimp scampi , a cream & garlic based sauce, full of flavor and spiced just right. Big pieces of shrimp. The manager/cook (Tony) came out to talk to me and explained what is going on in back of house two new servers. It's all good I told him I just wanted to bring it to a manager attention. Tony offered me a dessert an Italian cannoli with a French twist on the presentation and colors. The dining room has a very festive Italian decor and cozy atmosphere. Lots of vintage bottles of wines and oils on display.Overall not a bad dining experience just a bumpy start that ended on a positive note. If you're in the neighborhood I recommend you give this place a try.

This place is huge. Plenty of parking. There is plenty of seating inside if you have a big group. Nice itlaian decor throughout. Service treated you like family. Nice clean bathrooms. The food was mediocre, though, and the pricing was high. We had fun and enjoyed the experience. But overall, it wasn't the best Italian restaurant I have been to.

Decided to give brick oven cafe a try. The Caesar salad was good but dressing was extremely light and not Caesar style at all. The lettuce was crisp and fresh. The eggplant parmigiana was fried to death served with low quality tasting cheese and cafeteria sauce. The pasta you could tell was cooked way prior because it was so wet and over done that water pooled under the sauce. It was truly inedible. I asked for some bread because I couldn't eat my meal and it was a $1 charge. My waitress Lauren was super nice and attentive.

Food, service, and ambiance were all excellent. Donna was our server, friendly, and great service. Food was so fresh and prepared by excellent chefs. Best fresh spinach salad with bacon pecan dressing. You'll be happy you went!
