Before I begin this post, I will warn that it may be lengthy in some area, and I do apologize but I just didn't want to take away from the full impression and take-away that I also received from this specific establishment. I'm talking that though it's not a Bob's Steakhouse, I left highly impressed and just dumb founded about the entire experience itself!
If you haven't been to Lombardi's Cucina at the Star area in Frisco, TX you really need to go! From the moment you enter and from ceiling to the floor, this place truly gives an ambiance for every occasion; an intimate date night, watching a game, chilling at the bar solo or with others, girls' night out, family lunch/dinner, and even the family Sunday Brunch! The entry area provides a great setting for group or couple pictures/selfies. Beautifully decorated and just an inviting entrance overall.
The color schemes throughout the restaurant provide a relaxing comfortable environment for either a date night or a single person just out on the town. They have a seafood station (more for prepping for the kitchen) at the far back left hand corner, then in the middle of the restaurant are these beautifully set up trees with lighting and intimate booths surrounding the tree area. They have a nicely rounded bar to provide ample views of every corner of the restaurant, whether you're people watching or just enjoying the space and crowd. The back side of the bar faces this nice little nook area for what feels like a more private dining experience and of course! The far right side of the restaurant has these huge floor to almost ceiling windows, that lead to a luscious and refreshingly green patio seating. I haven't personally sat in the patio yet but it is on my to do list!
Their staff all seem friendly, courteous, knowledgeable, and most of all cater to the needs of your table which is in my opinion intoxicating to experience. Their restrooms are nicely laid out with nice privacy stalls for the needs of the women. Clean and light colors, which I always appreciate because then I don't go getting the germaphobe thought process (and no for the records I'm not a germaphobe!) With all that being said, now we enter into the best part of the restaurant, it's food!
If you aren't a foodie I feel that after eating here you will most certainly become one! Everything is made in house FRESH, from farm to table in addition to all of their ingredients being made daily and as you order. They provide fresh variety versions of "bread" in a wooded box with two sauces, which helps as you're trying to figure out what you want to eat/order. Their wine menu is adequate and their mixed drinks are varied enough for the palettes of the many.
First time in attendance and it was a girls night out so for dinner on a Friday night (where they have the live music and singers, that are both tasteful and have a nice blend of old and New Age music) so many things were ordered and many flavors were passed around the table (entrees that is).
The one thing I have to say, is that if you love whiskey you NEED to make sure you save space for dessert and order their "Monte Cristo"! That dessert is truly for the lovers of both whiskey, chocolate, and that Italian feel! You won't be disappointed!
Sincerely,
A Distinct Woman
