    This was an outstanding dining experience for all six of us. The service was wonderful (thanks Hannah!), the food was amazingly good. A couple of us had specialty drink requests and the staff there went overboard to satisfy us. For appetizers we had the Bruschetta - fresh, tasty and quite a lot included - and some cheesy bread (very good as well). Two of us (including myself) ordered the Grilled Chicken Almafi - we both enjoyed it tremendously, honestly, one of the best meals I've ever had out. Chicken was perfectly done, lots of good vegetables all in a tasty light sauce. Two ordered the Tuscan Seafood Pasta - the seafood was cooked correctly and both people enjoyed it a lot. The other two ordered the Chicken Parm (plentiful and very nice) and Chicken Piccata (the menu listed veal, but they were fine with substituting the chicken - that was enjoyed as well). As noted, the service was great - attentive, responsive, but not bothering us at all. Almost forgot: we got a couple of desserts to share - Cannolis (three large tasty ones) and a couple of the Limoncello cake slices (I like lemon after Italian and this was perfect - tasty, fluffy and light.) We've been dining there for years - all with the same ownership and attention to detail, we'll be back again as there are a couple of dishes we would have tried as well ;-)

    Quality of food and service is outstanding. Our server, Kim, is phenomenal. We always request her. All the servers are great. Calamari is more than four people can finish. Delicious! A bit loud when the restaurant is full. Fresh pasta daily. Consistent every time.

    We had a wonderful time celebrating my Mother-in-law’s birthday tonight. Especially enjoyed the Rosa Salad, the Bolognese, Limoncello cake and the Winter Sangria (my all time most favorite winter drink).

    This was our first visit to Mikes. Our server, George, was top notch. Our dinner and drinks were exceptional. The Rosa salad, while delicious, was a bit hard to eat. I would have preferred the radicchio to be cut up or chopped a little. We were seated in the last booth in the back corner by the bar/restrooms and the loud crashing periodically of wine/bar bottles being disposed of in the bin right by our table, a huge tub of dirty dishes on the floor by bar corner as well as the bathroom traffic were all not the most desirable. I’d ask not to be seated back there next time. Rachel, the manager, was friendly as were all other staff that we encountered at the host stand. Overall, highly recommend Mike’s!

    So angry with myself, forgot my phone we went to dinner at Mike’s Italian in Nashua. The food there deserves to be photographed, it was phenomenal. Excellent service, they took great care of us, I think we had three waiters at one point. We started with the fried mozzarella sticks, something my wife likes to try whenever we do Italian. They brought out a four perfectly fried sticks and two sauces to dip in, marinara and pesto. Very delicious. The wife selected the meat lasagna, while I chose the meatball and sausage rigatoni. As an added bonus, I ordered a side of cacio de pepe, something I’ve been wanting to try and this was the first time seeing it on a menu. They didn’t keep us waiting long. Everything was beautifully plated (alas! no pictures!) and there was so much food! The wife’s lasagna was huge, as was the homemade sausage and two meatballs. The cacio de pepe was delicious, only wish they offered it as a main course. Topped everything off with some cannolis; well, actually, those came home with us along with enough food for at least two more meals. Will definitely be back as there were other items I want to try. Will definitely remember my phone next time!

    This was our first time trying this restaurant. Everything was amazing from the Bruschetta to our main course. Our waiter was awesome. We'll definitely be going back.
