The service was quick and the ambiance is comfortable and you can hear your group pretty easily. I highly suggest the create your own pasta - just be prepared for leftovers!

Tuesday gathering for our group of 8, we had selected Tino's Italian Bistro and it was great! The restaurant was a little tricky to find due to the way you need to enter the parking area but once you know, there is plenty of spaces to find. We were able to sit together with tables pushed together. The waitress was experienced and helpful and accommodated separate checks for us. Food: Very delicious and brought out together. Several of us had their half sized salads, before the main meal, which were generously portioned and made with fresh ingredients. Caesar salads are a true test of a how well a restaurant cares for its patrons, even the croutons for my Caesar were delightfully light and toasted just right with a delicious light garlic butter flavor...no wilting salad greens and the dressings for the salads we each had tasted house made. One of our ladies needed to eat gluten free and they did have gluten free pasta. The waitress checked with the back of the house, to be sure that any additional ingredients used did not contain gluten in its preparation so she could make the right choices for her meal. That was nicely accommodated and appreciated. A few others chose to pick their own pasta and composed their own choices to go with their dish. I heard lemon shavings, scallops with fresh herbs, sautéed vegetables and then a choice of a creamy sauce or pasta tossed with olive oil. Our drinks had come out earlier while we looked at their extensive menu. They offer weekly and daily specials too. It did not take long for our dishes to come out and baskets of Italian bread served with a flavorful extra virgin olive oil with just the right blend of seasonings for dipping held our appetites while we waited. There was no room for desserts so I could not mention that but I needed to add that some ladies had earlier ordered their house made Sangria or other selections of wine and were very satisfied. It was a most delicious meal and was greatly enjoyed. They take special care with all the different aspects of a meal with freshly made ingredients, generous portions, staff that work well together, no loud noises emanating from the back of the house or front of the house despite being quite busy for a Tuesday evening. Prices are reasonable and it looked well attended by local residents in the area. They offer catering and event planning opportunities and this will be a place I would be happy to bring my family back to try. I expect the weekends are even busier but there is online reservations that can be used. Carry out is also available and they have their own enticing special Tuesday Pizza special that would be worth checking out. No surprise they have won yearly awards for their food. Very well deserved and I found a place well worth returning to.

Staying at the Marriott down the road (usually 1x per month) and usually go to a different restaurant but stumbled upon this one in my search and thought I'd try it. The food was phenomenal! We got the bruschetta as our appetizer and they had a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc on special for $25 so we ordered that too. The bruschetta was so flavorful and the bread had the perfect amount of soft to crunch. My only critique was that one bite into the cheese brought the entire (melted) slice into your mouth - use a second hand and you'll be fine. I had the shrimp Chesapeake and the portion was HUGE. It lasted me 3 meals! It had healthy portions of crab and shrimp and totally worth the price - again lasted 3 meals... My friend got the Tino's Gyro and while she didn't like that the veggies were cooked in it I thought it was tasty! I am giving 4 stars because our waitress seemed like she couldn't give us more than 30 seconds of her time before clearly wanting to disappear. Luckily, this restaurant seems to work as a team and multiple staff members help deliver food, refill drinks, and check in on you. I would definitely recommend.

I used to visit this restaurant when it was Strapazza Italian Grill back in the 90's. Definitely has changes and services a much larger crowd. The atmosphere is still friendly, and the food is a little bit simpler, but the portions are huge. The waitstaff was amazing and was able to accommodate our large party. We had almost everything on the menu. Appetizers like fried calamari, salads, and old bay soup, etc. The only thing not good was the wedding soup, it was sour, and would not recommend. All the kids had several pizzas and nothing was left. All the older parents had some cocktails, wine, and beers with their meals. Our table ordered different dishes and shared.
