Milano Italian Restaurant

Beautiful dining room.
Not your typical strip mall dining experience.
Felt upscale...
The calamari was perfectly cooked, served with a nice subtle red sauce.
The shrimp, scallops and crab Alfredo was delicious as well as the spicy shrimp and scallops...
another good dining experience some months later!

This place right here is Sorprendente! Every time I come here it's Soldi.
I mean Calzones as big as your head with more cheese than you could shake a Mouse at.
What music does the cheese love? A: Mozart-ella. I'm telling you this is Louisville's #bestkeptsecret.
There's even a private dinning room in the back if you want to have a business dinner or plan a global over.
Me and la mia famiglia had the Chicken Carbonara Calzones, Spicy Tuscan Garlic Chicken and the Kids Baked Spaghetti Meat Sauce.
Oh so good.
The Alfredo sauce was amore. If you're looking for great Italian, great atmosphere, great prices and great service then I highly recommend #MilanoItalianRestaurant #italianfood #calzone #cheese

I first discovered this place about a year ago when I was first moving to Louisville from Nashville, TN.
It was.
A nice surprise back then.
I've visited this restaurant a nice handful of times after that.
Sometime in the early summer of 2023, I ordered their tour dish that included 3 different dishes.
One of them was the lasagna.
That lasagna gave me a major clue into their food as it had paper under the pasta itself.
It made me think that their food is not prepared fresh and indeed bought frozen and reheated. I stopped going for several months and figured why not give it another try.
The service is still mediocre at best, and the food is exactly the same.
Went today, and it was the first time I stopped eating, voiced a complaint, and sent the food back.
Baked ziti that was ordered as the full portion came out as the lunch portion.
The plate was cold, and so was the food.
The last time I was there, I suspected they were serving the lunch size and charging the higher amount for the dinner size.
That's exactly what was taking place today. The only flavor the food has is from the cheese.
Zero seasoning. Service: The waiter tried to give my son a different order than what he was asking for.
My son corrected him right away.
We had to wait far too long for refills.
Requested additional house bread that never came out.
Typically, you do find the staff hiding behind the bar chatting away while ignoring the floor. Not good at all.
I do not recommend.
We will not be returning.
