Mandola's Italian - Austin

What a little jewel Mandola's Italian Kitchen is! If you haven't tried it yet, you must! So, so, good! My father was having surgery at Seton down the street so my daughter and I popped in for a bite to eat to go. We stopped relatively early so it wasn't crowded. The interior is quaint with an open view of the kitchen. They have a gelato bar and an open cooler for items to go. The bar was quaint and they had some nice wine options available by the glass and the bottle. There was another room off to the side with additional seating as well. They had a cute outdoor patio with a fountain with a really nice ambience, I imagine in the evening it is nice. I ordered some garlic bread with mozzarella while we waited and it came out quickly and was tasty. My daughter ordered spaghetti with meatballs and I ordered fettuccine alfredo with grilled chicken, the pasta was amazing! The fettuccine was definitely fresh and was perfectly cooked. The chicken was perfectly seasoned, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Definitely a place that we will visit again in the future.

The food is ABSOLUTELY delicious! I am a tough critic, but if I could give this a 10 STAR I would. Perfect date spot. Romantic. Tasty. Convenient. The chicken Parmigian is ridiculously good! And the bread!!! OMG. Make sure to order some shrimp and a pizza! Great to share. If we lived nearby, I'd weigh 500lbs. It's incredible!

Food service was expedient and everything was very tasty. Granted, I had the Spaghettini Ortolano. I didn't like it that much, but it's because of personal taste. Everyone at my table loved their dishes and the deserts were phenomenal. I had the Italian Creme Cake and it was very tasty. The snickerdooles and the Mixed Berry sorbet were good as well. This place is well worth the price (which isn't all that bad either).

Amazing spot. The food here is amazing. The service is quick. They give complementary focaccia and olive oil too. Me and my friend tried a vegetariano pizza and fettuccine Alfredo pasta with peas and mushrooms from the menu. We also tried the gelato. It was delicious. You can get 2 different flavors in small cup. So I got Chocolate and hazelnut. My friend tried the roasted almonds. We loved it. I would definitely be back to try more things. They don't have assigned seating. You can place your order and grab any table indoors or outdoors. There's a small fountain outside.

I got the fettuccine alfredo with shrimp and my brother got the same but with grilled chicken, both were delicious! We also got garlic bread with mozzarella and it was good too. Me and my family love eating here and highly recommend it!
