Customer Reviews
Yolanda is an amazing chef. I have been to Taste of Italy several times. Lasagna is Incredible. Her Homemade Cannoli's and Tiramisu are some of the Best i have ever had. They would rival Ferrara's Bakery in Little Italy NYC. I had Yolanda Cater an Event for 20 People and food was perfect, spot on for the amount of servings and again the dessert was off the hook. Thank you Again Yolanda for making my event perfect. Pete
Yolanda was great! We had the homemade lasagna, an Italian sausage on homemade sourdough, and a salad. Everything was wonderful. We ended with a homemade cannoli - which was to die for!!! 🤤 Once they get the beer garden and bands going this place will be fire 🔥!
Me and a few of my girlfriends were camping at an Airbnb, and the host, Joel, was incredibly sweet—he even brought us food from the place! He surprised us with lasagna, chicken Alfredo, meatballs, salad, and dessert, and honestly, everything was absolutely amazing. The lasagna was perfectly cooked with a great balance of meat and cheese. The salad had tomatoes and olives, and I thought the olives were a really nice touch. But of course, my favorite part was the dessert. The cheesecake had a crisp chocolate topping and fresh raspberries—it gave crème brûlée vibes, and I absolutely loved it. The coffee cake was bold, probably made with espresso, and super moist. If you’re a coffee lover, that one’s a must-try. Five stars all the way!
OMG! This place! You have to eat here if you like fresh, authentic and extremely tasty foods. Fettuccine pasta and lasagna were amazing! Tiramisu was one of the best I have ever had and the cheese cake was delicious. This felt like true home made Italian food and I definitely recommend to eat here if you are visiting the area!
This food is amazing. I had the italian sausage with peppers, and the buffalo burger this past weekend. If you are looking for authentic Italian food, this is the place. At a 80th birthday, Yolanda's mother from Sicily i was fortunate enough to try Yolanda's lasagna, Italian salad and cheesecake. Yolanda is currently serving behind the Blue Moon Outside, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. She also caters events and has done a few at my Inn and Sanctuary. Yolanda is a valuable asset to the community and happens to be the mother of our four wonderful children and currently four grandchildren. Please stop by and at least say Hi to her. Joel
