My husband and I had the chance to try this restaurant this evening, and we really enjoyed our experience! The decor is cute on the inside. Our only complaint is the tables are a bit close together, and it is pretty loud. I had the Frozen Jungle Bird Cocktail- it started sweet and refreshing but had a strong bitter after taste. We shared the arancini and the meatball appetizers. Both were delicious! The arancini was super crispy on the outside, and soft and gooey on the inside. The meatballs were flavorful, and a great texture. We shared the pesto cream pasta for the entree and really enjoyed it as well. The pasta was perfectly cooked, and the sauce was delicious.We shared the ricotta lemon cake for dessert and it was the perfect end to the meal. We will definitely be returning!

Visited a couple of weeks ago. The place was packed.Festive atmosphere.Service was great.Tried the white bean dip w/ bread and side ceasar salad, both were good.However, the bolognese missed the mark. Sorry to say, but it was awful.No flavor whatsoever. None.I'll be back, but will skip the bolognese next time.

I didn't even know this location (formerly Freya) had reopened. The Hubs surprised me with a pre-Valentine's Day dinner here. This spot is definitely experiencing a "hot & new" reputation so I would highly recommend reservations. That being said, our reservation was for 8 pm and we were seated promptly but around 8:30 the place was emptying out. There were a few spots at the bar when we were seated. Maybe roll the dice...I love the decor, beachy but minimal. Definitely not over the top. The signage for the bathrooms is so cute! Trunks for one and a bikini for the other. I would never have known Freya was here. The bean dip was good and the bread is amazing. I would have liked some more of that bread with our entrees. I really thought everything was priced well. Our entrees were around $15. I had the Bucatini (with basil cream, pesto and whipped burrata). Really delicious! We tried the panna cotta for dessert. It was good but I wish we had tried something else. The fruit "conserva" seemed like dried cherries. The cherries were a good compliment to the panna cotta. I want the ricotta cake on our next visit. I also want to just sit and nosh on the appetizers--some more of that bean dip with Arancini and the Malfi Tomato Toasts and the Pork & Beef meatballs. It sounds wonderful to just sit at the bar, have some signature cocktails and go through the "Not Pasta" menu.There are a few wines by the glass and a few beers. Look for a five star review on the next visit. I just wanted more bread.

The new hot spot in Tulsa. It's in a great location on Brookside. The atmosphere was wonderful, as they try to transport you to the Amalfi coast.The food was spectacular. The best Italian food in Tulsa. It was jammed packed late on a Thursday and I believe they opened officially the day before, so I don't blame the service for being a little slow.Overall will absolutely go back!

dolce far niente...the sweetness of doing nothing And the vibe that the NEW Maldives brings to your entire dining experience. From the second you walk in, the entire team works in seamless choreography to ensure you're entirely taken care of and that you can slow down and enjoy your visit. Malfi Enoteca serves authentic Italian cuisine with their own unique flair, in a bright and vibrant environment, inspired by the Amalfi Coast. We loved absolutely everything we tried: White Bean Dip with Country Bird Bakery Bread, Arancini (the family favorite), Pork and Beef Meatballs, Kale Salad, Bucatini, Barbera Braised Boneless Short Rib (my husband says this is the best short rib he's ever had), and the Ricotta Cake for dessert. It's a perfect spot for date night, family lunch or dinner, or even a solo trip. Reservations aren't required, but let's face it, you'll want them. Could not be more excited for their addition to the Tulsa dining scene and can't wait to get back.

Went here for lunch on a Saturday and people need to wake up and get out there! It is the most darling place with the cutest vibe! We went in 30 minutes early, right when they opened because we had a large group and we assumed they would be so packed but we were the only people there. GET OUT AND GO NOW BEFORE EVERYONE FINDS OUT! It is a hidden gem! Not to mention the food is INCREDIBLE and reasonably priced for portions and the quality.

Adorable atmosphere. Very friendly and helpful staff. Lived the meatballs. Pesto pasta was delicious. Only miss for us was the bolognese which the staff promptly subbed for another dish. The replacement, rigatoni, was excellent. We will be back.

Meh, another ridiculously loud restaurant with the tables super close together, it's ok if you want to hear every word the people next to you say. Food was average, server was nice. Not sure we'll be rushing back. (But it's still better than mondo's)
