Best Home Cooking Restaurants in Lodi

From arrival to the end, the visit was wonderful… spacious seating and ready early! The staff especially our server Monica were attentive and quick to respond to any request. The food was tasty and plentiful. The time spent with family was comfortable and we felt served well. Totally recommend it!

We have driven by this restaurant for a while and finally decided to stop in for a drink and a appetizer on Christmas Eve. We were greeted by friendly Jan who took us to our reserved high top, The menu had been changed to a special limited menu so we decided to have dinner. Had a lobster and burrata appetizer and then lobster ravioli and the salmon. Both were great. While we were eating a husband and wife combo came in and set up for the nightly entertainment. As they walked by us they stopped to introduce themselves and say Merry Christmas. They started playing a mix of Christmas Carols and popular music. Couples were dancing so we did too. The owner came over to say hello as well. We stayed longer for a couple of martinis. Overall a great ;meal, friendly people, and all in all a delightful surprise.

We loved our experience at Joanne! They have long been a favorite for a nice meal near Lincoln Center with good gluten free options for my family members with celiac. This time, we also learned they have a nut free kitchen, which was wonderful for another member of our party with a severe nut allergy. The servers were very kind and the live music on the patio was lovely—festive but not too loud. Everyone had a delicious, warm, winter dinner before our show and we'll be back!

We loved dining with friends at Pizzaiolo! They have a great menu from which to choose. The service is outstanding. The good delicious. We are out-of-towners there but return with each visit to the area. It is a neighborhood gem. A must go-to!
