Tuscanos Brewery And Pizza - La Quinta

The food was excellent, but the noise from the sports and TVs made it difficult to hold a conversation.

I was unsure about trying this place due to the mixed reviews, but the food looked appealing, so we decided to give it a chance, and I'm really glad we did! We were warmly greeted shortly after we arrived, seated right away, and the service was excellent. Every staff member acknowledged us at some point while passing by our table. The pizza, wings, fried macaroni, caprese salad, and calzone were all fantastic! The house-made marinara sauce was also delicious!

This was our first visit to Toscano's. As soon as we were seated, our waitress, Millie, introduced herself and shortly after, we were served some amazing breadsticks. Millie returned to take our drink orders while we decided on our meals. Once we had our drinks, she took our food orders: one person ordered an antipasto salad, another chose a pastrami Stromboli, and the third opted for spaghetti and meatballs. The food arrived fairly quickly. The antipasto salad was generously portioned but served on a small plate, making it a bit difficult to manage. The Stromboli looked appealing, but my guest was disappointed to find that it contained very little meat. The portion of spaghetti and meatballs was large for the price, but there was an excess of sauce. The meatballs were quite tasty, and Millie was a very attentive server. We might consider returning to see if our next experience differs.

The confirmed Open Table reservation was worthless at least the night we ate there. We were put on a waiting list. When finalky got a table, no server for 15 minutes, so we foynd 2 open seats at the bar where service was great, but food was awful. Unfortunately, like several restaurants, they are obviously struggling with staffing.

Don’t bother… this place is terribly managed. They take “reservations’ on Open Table but please know that they do not honor them. They have no real host/hostess at the front, you may wait 10 15 minutes for someone to greet you at the entrance only to wait in line behind others who are walk ins. Your reservations time slot will pass while you just wait to check in and it is even more disconcerting to hear the “hostess” continue to tell people who had reservations that “they don’t really do reservations because [they] have walk ins.” I kept hearing the Seinfeld episode playing in my head…. ‘You can take the reservation, but you need to HOLD the reservation. Anyone can just TAKE reservations…’ Ridiculous.
