    The food was amazingly delicious. Every dish we had was perfect! From the lasagne, to the spaghetti and meatballs to the delicious chicken fettuccine, it was perfect. Service was fantastic and very accommodating for our late reservation. We would highly recommend this restaurant for a delicious authentic Italian meal.

    Food was top notch. Our server was super friendly and helpful with food selection as it was a first visit. It did take the for a little bit to come out of the kitchen but the quality made up for the wait. Good place for anniversary, birthday, etc…

    We celebrated my mom’s 82nd birthday tonight at J&S Italian Villa and it was a wonderful experience for her. The food was amazing, as always, with generous portions (we even took some home) the staff was great and very attentive. They made her feel special ❤️ We couldn’t have asked for anything more.
