Mandinas is great, and one of my all around favorites, however: Italian makes up only a small part of their menu, and so I feel it's hard to classify it as an Italian restaurant

Adolphos. Great gem in marigny
Attempted to go there twice, got hammered at mimi's instead.

I personally think that Adolphos is over rated.
It is super small. Cash only and almost everything is covered in their Ocean sauce.
Some people love ocean sauce, but it was too much for me.

Vincent's and Italian Barrel are both good. Rumor has it that Robert DeNiro tried to get the owner of the Italian Barrel to open a restaurant for him in NYC.
I've heard Irene's and Mariza are good from people who have eaten there. They are high on the list of places to try for my wife and I.

It's good for Italian if you like mushy/gummy angel hair pasta.
They are in real need for quality control in that area and to possibly consider using something other than angel hair with everything they serve.

Take the10 min drive to mid city and go to Venezias. Best Italian imo.

Lots of good responses.
Italian Barrel
Marcello's
Domenica
Vincent's
I also like Ancora, although more of a pure pizza play.

Lester mentioned it early but Oak Oven in Harahan is fantastic. Their lamb meatballs are fantastic

This is my real knock on Adolphos. I can put up with the crowds and the hot arse summers in there, but if you don't take plastic, that is a big problem for me.

Which one has the best combo of food and wine list? And by wine list I mean Italian wines. Thanks.
Posted on 12/13/17 at 10:06 pm to VABuckeye
Any of them will offer great wines. I’m certainly not an expert, but I would think Marcellos would have the “best” list.
