This place is amazing! We started with a Papa Negroni and a Mule's Mistress which were both great. We had the mussels for an appetizer which were the best mussels I have every had - the sauce was to die for. Our waitress was amazing and brought us more bread (baguette) to eat with the mussel sauce. For entrees, we had the bucatini and the ricotta cavatelli. The ricotta cavatelli was amazing and the bucatini disappointed me a little. Would have definitely gone back, so sad they are closing.

We've been here a couple times in the last month. The first time was amazing, this was prior to the restaurant announcing that they are closing soon. We were adamant on coming here once more before they closed because we lived the rigatoni pasta! Upon arrival (our second time) my son and I approached the hostess stand, still waiting for my boyfriend to arrive. Many servers were standing there to seat the guests pouring in for their reservations. I too had a reservation, I made weeks prior. The older woman that is usually at the hostess stand was there again, but her attitude was disgusting and disrespectful. I had booked for 2 people, (I had my infant son who is 20lbs and can sit in a highchair in place of any chair or stool- not a big deal), but technically had 3 persons with my INFANT 14 month old (quiet and very well behaved) son.. She made a huge deal that I had brought my son and said "she guesses she can accommodate us and find us a high chair" - like it was SUCH A BURDEN to do so??? I said if it's such a big deal he can sit on my lap.. but she insisted she'd figure it out but made me feel like an about it. First of all- when booking on the OpenTable app, there is no option for "highchair or child under 2", so the only way I'd be able to tell them is by calling the restaurant itself- which is near impossible to get ahold of anyone anyways!!! Love the food here, and most of the servers and staff are phenomenal!! But the older lady at the hostess stand damn near ruined our very last experience eating at the Italian eatery. I hope she finds a job somewhere where she doesn't have to deal with people. It was a very easy fix to grab a high chair and our meal was great, but her attitude makes me glad they're closing so I never have to see her again.

Oh my YUM! I unfortunately have fallen in love with Italian Eatery just as they are on their way out :( they will be closing sometime early June but luckily I was able to get a first (and last) try of their amazing dishes. The pappardello was a unique and beautiful pasta that was full of flavor - definitely worth trying if you can! And the mushroom cappelletti... I don't even like mushrooms but since this is one of their most popular dishes I had to try and wow!! This was one of the best pastas I've had, rich and delicious without being overwhelming. I wish I would've had leftovers to take home!

We are so sad IE is closing! This trip was our first and last do to their closing at the end of the month. I have only heard amazing things about this restaurant since moving to mn 2 years ago so we had to give it a try before it was too late! We ordered the bolognese, spritz, braised beef, and lemonade. All were delish! The braised beef was tender and the pasta is made fresh everyday. I loved my spritz and the lemonade was very refreshing. We parked out front in the small parking lot but there is street parking also if needed. The atmosphere is classy and has a personable feel. Service was amazing and our waitress was very knowledgeable the menu. There's both indoor and outdoor seating options! I highly recommend trying this restaurant before it closes!
