I had given up on this restaurant because of the previous manager. I had a terrible experience at Ranch Saloon at the rodeo in 2023, and I mentioned it to the mgr when I took a friend to Trattoria soon after that. He was so incredibly dismissive (as was the mgr at the Saloon) like the entire evening should have been expected because of the large crowd. Then the waitress would not let me order what I wanted from the lunch menu, and overcharged my friend and me. I’m so happy to try y’all again. The food was delicious today, and Luca was a fabulous waiter! Now I’ll be back on a regular basis with my family!
