Our family has enjoyed Tuscany for many years! The food and service are great.

We went because of a Groupon and were immediately disappointed. When we walked in we were greeted by a waitress who told us to take a seat in the "lobby"...

The food and service were very good. This restaurant is a good choice if you are looking for a quiet dining experience.
It was a wonderful experience from the front door greeting through dessert. The service and food was fantastic. We were coming in from out-of-state so we were looking for a good restaurant in the area. I saw good reviews on this restaurant on the web, so we decided to take a chance. We all (group of 4) enjoyed our meals. Everyone raved about the food and our server, and acknowledged that it was...
Delicious! Yes, I had the veal parmigian and it was very good... Excellent in other words. Staff was very friendly. Atmosphere was quiet and comfortable. Prices are reasonable for the quality and amount of food. Would visit again!
Take your money somewhere else, anywhere else but here. Server was very unattentive, & preoccupied, had to ask 3 different times for straws! I ordered the veal parm and it was soggy, not fully cooked, no crunch at all to it!! GROSS. I asked for the tiramisu & it was slopped appearing all messy in a little cup. I took...
We wanted to meet our daughter's future in-laws and did so at lunch at Tuscany's. As usual, the food was excellent as well as the service. they were able to put us in a separate room for a little privacy and quiet atmosphere.
We have gone here several times and never been disappointed. Prices are a little on the high side but the quality is good and the atmosphere is nice. They also take reservations which is a big plus!
We were not received or greeted at the door very pleasantly by the matre'd, who appeared to be busy with other business. We asked if we could use a specific gift card, bought at the Tuscano restaurant and given to us as a Christmas gift. We were told that because it was Valentine's Day, no coupons or other means of payment would be accepted. My wife had to argue that our's was a gift card...
This is a go-to restaurant for good Italian in Newport News. Tucked back off Jefferson Ave, it is hard to miss but delightful discovery. The garlic knots are worth a trip and everything we've had has been delicious. Diverse menu has something for everyone
Our service was wonderful even though our waitress was very busy. We were in no hurry, so she slowed down our service so we could sit and enjoy our evening. Our food was tasty, but mine my lemon and butter chicken was over the top! And the lemon dessert was very yummy. Thank you for making our birthdays celebration memorable.
Good food, friendly and knowledgable service. The only drawback for me is that the serving sizes are way too large. The pizza is definitely big enough for two and the pasta dishes could serve at least 2, probably 3. Hard to decide what to order knowing most will go to waste so unless you plan on taking home leftovers you...
The food was very good as was the service. Was upset to learn that OssoBuko would not longer be available...that was good previously.
We return here time after time and are always more than totally satisfied, we are wowed by the great food and service at this great Italian gem. The daily specials always add great new choices to the regular menu. Everything is very fresh and we especially love their salads and garlic knots.

I didnt know what to expect. I am gluten in tolerant, they are in a strip mall n I had a groupon. I was shocked, in the most amazing way. We were fed tge largest meals I have ever seen with phenomenal flavor. They even had gluten free pasta which was cooked properly n tasted great
Girlfriend and I went out for our 1 month anniversary. Very nice, place. Right behind hooters. Service was great food was great and there was soo much food. Will be back soon. Use the groupon!!!
Normally Tuscany is a pretty good dining experience, but we were sadly disappointed this week by going on Monday, an unusual dining out night for us, which proved that the server can make or break a meal. Our server was yound and not well skilled, including a pop T Shirt shoing words through his white shirt. Ten minutes to get...
Tuscany has a great selection of food to chose from. I tried the lasagne with sausage and it was wonderful. All food is made to order. The combination plate is also a good choice. The location is near the airport in a small shopping center. I will return here again and iI recommend it.
Very good Chicken Marsala...my son ended up eating 1/2 my meal!!! I ended up eating half of my mothers Veal Parmigiana and my Dads Lasgana!! All was excellent!! We are from MD and will be back next time we visit my parents!!
The food was exquisite,
I simply must confess.
The seafood pasta,
surpasses all the rest.
The bomba dessert,
also was a treat,
The atmosphere is pleasant,
As is the tasty meat.
The garlic knots are scrumptious,
The salad is okay,
I hope you'll enjoy it,
much as I did today.
New to the area. Bought a Groupon to try out a new place. Loved it. Wonderful, will definitely go back. Thank you for a wonderful meal.
I love this place! The food is awesome! I try something different every time I dine there and every meal has been excellent!
Fabulous food! If I lived here I would be here every week. The house Chianti delicious and I'm used to homemade! If you live here. Why are you not there! Waitress was very good!!
It's difficult to describe how wonderful this restaurant is, but I'll give it my best shot. I've never been to Italy. I've dreamed of going. I watch "Under the Tuscan Sun" and drool at the food. Tonight was a vacation, wrapped in a beautiful meal. The explosion of flavor in every single bite of the pasta...vegetables so fresh, …
We have been coming to Tuscanys for years. I only order one thing- Farfalle del Toscano- bow tie pasta, vodka sauce, and shrimp. It is hands down the best pasta dish I have ever eaten. It has been the same for at least 7 years. The garlic knots are delicious, the salad and homemade dressing are delicious- I …
We really like the food and service! Not too many vegetarian options, but they do customize recipes in order to accommodate customer requests. The ambience feels cozy and inviting.
Good food. Friendly staff. Has a large wine menu, but I would suggest the sangria. Plates come with salad and garlic knots. Portions are huge so be prepared to eat a lot or take home leftovers.
The food was great and our waitress, Desiree, was the bomb!
I randomly picked this restaurant because it had a reservation available and was Italian so I knew my kids would find something. The portions were gigantic. The food was excellent. We got stuck in traffic and the held our reservation which was awesome because we were all starving by the time we arrived. The price was good for the portions and the value. It is more bustling and busy as opposed...
This is a great local spot for wonderful Italian food. Not only is the food great but they have a wonderful wine list and have the most delicious desserts. And it is very worthwhile to consider their daily specials. We have never been disappointed dining here, they have spot on service, food, drinks and the prices are very reasonable.
Snotty and expensive. Saw the menu online, looked like everything was around 15. got there and the waitresses are just standing there starring at everyone as they eat. looked at the menu and most of the entrée were 25 or more. Then my son wanted Alfredo and it wasn't on the kids menu and they would not substitute. we got up and left.

I eat out a lot and most meals I forget. I'm happy to say that the Tuscan Paella special at Tuscany is a meal I won't forget. My wife, who's from Spain, makes the greatest Paella and no restaurant has ever matched it. BUT, the flavors of my meal at Tuscany has the distinction of being the 2nd best dish of this type of, which isn't a bad position to be in. The Italian flare and flavors made this...
I enjoyed my experience at Tuscany very much! The chef was willing to take components from two menu dishes to create something unique for me. Lovely!
My wife and I absolutely love this place. The meals are wonderful and full of flavor. The portions are more than you can handle curing the visit. A to go bag is always in order. We take our friends there when we are looking for a special meal for the evening.

Party of 5 for birthday and was allowed to bring cake. Waitress brought plates and forkes. Really enjoyed myself. Good food Great time.
This was our third dinner at Tuscany, all have been mediocre to poor, this was by far the worst. Our wine was warm, borderline hot, like it was sitting in the kitchen. I was served wine in a glass with a big chip in the bottom. The salad had about an inch of water in the bottom of the bowl with little to no dressing. The rolls were touch and chewy, clearly reheated. Just awful. We're not going...

We have been to Tuscany several times. Our service this night was really great and the waitress was fantastic. The portion of food is more than enough. My Lasagna lasted me for lunch the next two days. Always a great place to eat.

We chose Tuscanys on our way to the Symphony. We had been there for lunch, but not for dinner. The family size bowl of salad and the fantastic rolls would make the trip worthwhile. But add veal marsala and you have a dish that made me want to "lick the plate' clean. It was truly the finest veal dish I've had - and there are two more variations to try in future visits.
I come just for the Garlic Knots and the house dressing. Both are amazing! I have seen reviews of this place, quite a few bad reviews however this makes my 2nd time here and both times were wonderful. My service was on point, my waiter attended to my every need, even suggesting dressings and let me sample them. Food was paced at a great speed, salad was fresh, and my cup was never empty. My...
If you have a yearning for an Italian meal, a step above Olive Garden, but certainly appealing to the masses, then feel safe in heading to Tuscany. The salad is cold and fresh, the garlic knots are worth a visit by themselves, the four main courses served at our table all were appreciated by their consumers! The only complaint is that the size of the servings are gigantic?! We will definitely...

This is where we go when the cravings are set to northern Italy. I recommend opting for getting the grilled vegetables in place of pasta for a side dish (a few dollars extra). Extremely delicious. One major drawback is that they don't really do OpenTable reservations. We made one online and mentioned that when we checked in. The hostess said, "Oh an online reservation? You should just call in...
It appears that the restaurant no longer takes Open Table Reservations We got a table by chance. They did not have a good answer for the lack of communication too bad Maybe Open Table reps need to contact Tuscany frustrating for customer could have been major problem it was New Years Eve!!!
Been there several times and each experience is great!

Don't bother booking this restarant through Open Table - I used the website to book, but they didn't actually reserve a table for me. There isn't any way to know your reservation was actually taken and a table held.
Although they did not have our opentable reservation, the food made up for it! The special pork was divine. All sauces were better than average. Dishes well prepared! I'll go again and take others.
This is one of our favorite places for Italian cuisine and you cannot go wrong with any of the dishes that are prepared here. They have a very good wine list to complement anything one might order. The service is always spot on; courteous, friendly and efficient. Previously when we have dined here, we had made reservations on Open Table and never had a problem when checking in. But on this...
We met our friends for dinner...they are vegetarians and had no trouble finding delicious items on the menu. We started with the Mellenzane Rollatine - Eggplant stuffed with lots of cheese which was wonderful. Dinner came with salad and yummy garlic knots which were plentiful. I got the Saltimbocca Alla Romana - Medallions of veal with parma prosciutto, baby spinach ,& fresh mozzarella cheese...

Took the ladies from our office out with their spouses and had a wonderful dinner. The food was excellent and the service was good. Quality for price was perfect. Would recommend to anyone.
We were four girlfriends and it was my time to choose; everyone was very happy - wine and food and ambience - all good.
Tuscany had been recommended by a friend. we were not disappointed. It was my wife's birthday and she just wanted Osso Bucco. I had rack of lamb. Both were served with and outstanding rissoto. This was one of the best lambs I have ever tasted, and my wife raved about the Osso Bucco. They gave her a wonderful cannolli for her birthday (which is her favorite dessert (she was expecting some...
I've been here several times for lunch as well as dinner. The food is always delicious and you get a lot of it! Everyone is always friendly and we haven't had a bad experience here.
The food was very tasty, and service excellent. Very friendly and helpful in knowledge of menu. Relaxed atmosphere, and never rushed or bothered.
Every time me and my wife go their to eat the food and service is always outstanding!!!!
Never go back the manager was Rude loud and arguementive acting very unprofessional actually said she didn't care about loosing 4 customers ...managers can make or break a business she is off to a grand start.
Tuscany is a good place for a casual lunch, but too close quarters for a business lunch. The food is good. I had the Italian Panini with homemade chips. I'm not a potato chips person, but I couldn't get enough of the house made chips. The service was good and the prices reasonable. Lunch for 2 was less than $30.
We are never disappointed when we go to Tuscany. The daily specials are always delicious to try and the regular menu has many great choices for those who want steak, seafood or vegetarian alternatives. The wine list is very good and very reasonably priced. And you'll have to try their desserts, they are delicious, though we often end up ordering them to go.
Hmm... Quaint restaurant in the heart of the Denbigh area. Food has always been pretty damn great for me, and seems significantly more....authentic..than many of the places in the local area. The service is usually average...most of the servers are either Russian, Polish, or Romanian....which can be a bit difficult when it comes to trying to ask questions or things like that....but I truely...
The restaurant has a nice cozy atmosphere with a local restaurant appeal. I drove over 30 miles to eat at Tuscany and it was well worth the drive. Their eggplant Mellanzane Ripiene keeps me coming back.
True gem. I was looking for a narby Italian place while on a business trip; this was an excellent find. Great service, good food, friendly.
Pros and Cons. Overall, our family dining experience was good. The food was above average, the service was good, and the atmosphere was average. First, the food, which is why we came. The family style salad was nice, fresh, tasty. Would have been nice to let us know in advance that it's family style so I wouldn't be wondering why they didn't ask me what dressing I wanted. Our drinks were flat,...
The food was fine, fast and reasonable. Good recommendations from knowledgeable servers. Wine list was sufficient and the wine on special was good in taste and value.
The food here was excellent and very generous portions!!I would recommend this restaurant to anyone. Plan on going back.
Always a good choice for dinner, we didn't even realize they were on Open Table. The food is always delicious and the daily and weekly specials always worth a try. The wine list is good and we've had good luck with their specials. The only exception to this is the Lodi Red. Neither of us were terribly impressed with this one but we believe it to be the exception to the rule. The Tuscany staff...
We made a reservation there and were called back that they were overbooked. They had had two parties booked weeks in advance. If that were the case, then they should have contacted OpenTable to show that they were not available for large parties. When I questioned the manager, she claimed that she had emailed me about the issue. She had not. We were trying to gather together to celebrate the...
Great Italian Wine and Decent Food. Good service. Had two glasses of wine-Moscato-awesome and Sangiovese-wonderful. Good selection of wine if you enjoy. There's also a cocktail menu. The calamari was good. But not served with lemon. The salad/bread was just average. Had red snapper with capers, and tomatoes served over fettuccine which was phenomenal. The dessert list is interesting. We tried...
Can't Wait to Go Back.... Now when your actually counting the days until you go back, you know it's good! LOL! We went for our 10th Wedding Anniversary, and I am already planning a next trip (since we are out of towners) for my birthday! It's absolutely wonderful! The food, the wait staff, and the eatery itself were absolutely great! If your looking for a place xo at where you want to eat slow...
This placed used to be my favorite and we lived right around the corner. Once we moved to a different neighborhood we didn't have a chance to visit for over 2 years. When we did finally come back for a visit, the food was just not as good. I heard that they might have changed managment over the last few years? But I'm not sure, no one has confirmed that. Atmosphere is still very homey and...

Best food, best price, largest quantity for money...LOVE the garlic knots!!
Low end Italian. As much as I hate saying this, stick with OG a block away if you can't drive anywhere else to eat.
My husband and I found this place in late 2009, and we eat here frequently. The service is always good, the atmosphere cozy, and the food fantastic! They have different specials every time we go in and we haven't eaten anything here we didn't like. This is a great Italian restaurant!
My man and I try to go at least once a month. Their garlic knots are great and the sauces taste fresh and homemade. It's a small, dainty place so I wouldn't suggest a big party going there. We've had…

My wife and I selected Tuscany for our anniversary diner. We were quickly sat at a small table which should have been adequate for the two of us. After a few minutes, our drink orders were taken.

Best Italian food around. Great deal for the price. The lasagna is huge, the rigatoni alla vodka is delicious, and the bruscetta is fantastic. Love this place!

I love this restaurant but you must choose the right waitress. Nicky is the only waitress that we use when we go. She is very prompt and perfesional and provides the best service!!
Tuscany has really good food if you can get service. Unfortunately we had reservations that were not honored due to 1-2 large groups that showed up. Disappointing inconvenience.

Good food. Bad service. It's a good luch restaurant but for dinner not my cup of tea.
Visiting Tuscanys this past weekend was a GREAT experience! The food was devine! I enjoyed the veal special and my husband enjoyed the flounder. The service was awesome! Its hard to find such attentive service now days. I will be going back soon. I would highly recomend this place to anyone!!
I had the best panino at Tuscany! You rarely see them served at ristorante italiano. The starter salad was way better than those bland salads the Olive Garden serves - the garlic knots were much better then bread sticks and the panino was to die for! I would highly recommend!!
come hungry
Meh, Food was at the least Okay...But I could have saved the time of waiting the the slow service and probally had a better meal from a Drive through place...
Delicious italian dining at reasonable prices. Good service, pleasant staff. Not the most elegant decor, but who cares, also offers al fresco dining.

Tuscany Ristorante Italiano does a great imitation of the Olive Garden chain with its popular Italian-American formula. The small mom-and-pop operation in the corner of Turnberry Shopping Center offers many of the same perks: a family-style salad, a menu of standard Italian favorites, baskets of complimentary bread and relentlessly generous portions. But unlike the mega-chains, Tuscany offers...
