   ItalX is always a great place for a good meal and a glass of wine. Highly recommend.

   ItalX Review •1st time dinners, special occasion, Birthday, special request Gluten free no singing •Hostess was pleasant but still sat us at a table close to children beating on their plates with utensils after I requested not to be sat there. Also, no recognition from anyone of special occasion just the fact that this was our 1st visit •Our server Matthew was young but very attentive and remained consistently attentive throughout the evening •Did not order cocktails as the menu was very limited. There may have been other options but they were not mentioned •Ordered lowest priced bottle of wine of the menu, 30.00 Matua Sauvignon Blanc Marlborough 2022, refused to except after table tasting, was not drinkable •Ordered from the next tier of the wine list, 54.00 Tenuta Maccan Chardonay DOC Friuli 2022, accepted only not to make a scene, stiff manager had already been to the table •First course: Calamari; One of the best in Lexington, Farinata; very under seasoned and no deassing for salad, Caprese; also, very under seasoned and bland •Second course: Scallop Pansotti; Best in Lexington maybe best in KY, Lasagna Napolitana; Average at best, just nothing special and the small portion for 28.00 with no bread, no side, just plain slice of lasagna on a bed of sauce made the experience low •Atmosphere of ItalX would be great for a street side French bistro but nothing told me I was in an Italian restaurant, the wine list was animatic at fine dining prices and the service was good with an aloof manager (don’t know his name as it was never offered), even with the best veal and calamari in the region the rest of the experience will keep us away from a return trip

   We come here every time we spend night in Lexington. Server named Rachel provided awesome service. Loved calamari. It is perfect. Thought scallops meal was good but could spice it up a little more. Lasagna was excellent. Very filling meal - you will leave stuffed. Will come back again.

   We dined here for the first time celebrating our anniversary. We had an excellent server, very attentive & helpful. Our main entrees were very good & portions were generous. We ordered the hazelnut cheesecake with almond crust for dessert. While the presentation was nice, it was hard & dry. Definitely would not recommend. Our only other negative experience was seating. We were so close to other diners , we could overhear their conversations. We were anticipating a more intimate atmosphere.

   Food was good but could have been temperature hotter. Service was adequate but server could have been a little more attentive. Great environment! Would overall recommend.

   Restaurant was very loud, we asked to move to a different table that wasn't right in the middle of the room. Service wasn't great, our waiter was quite inattentive. We had to request needed things from other staff. I would go back as I think the service we received wasn't indicative of the restaurant as a whole, just our waiter.
