The Italian Peasant
Reviews
The Italian Peasant, is my absolute FAVE's near Green Valley, just south in TUBAC! A great authentic Italian Restaurant! I love the family size lasagna, I eat one portion at dinner and take the rest home, only $18.99 and it makes 4 meals! "You gotta try it, I know you will love it!" My husband is very fond of the Hot Pastrami and Rueben Sandwiches, but his "Absolute FAVE" is the mussels in creamy broth! I can't wait to try everything on the menu!
I don't get these negative comments about their service. I get the pleasure of visiting this restaurant 3 times a year when my buddies and I come down south to hunt. We love coming here because their food is FANTASTIC! The lunchtime waitstaff is more laid back. They're setting up the place for the evening dining and sometimes forgets to check on us. That's OK. Although the place has the looks of a fine dining establishment and the food to back it up, it's still a laid back country scene. As long as the food is great, I can get up and get my own napkins and/or call out to my waiter for a refill of my drink. :) Man, their food is FANTASTIC! I'll be there for lunch or dinner this Saturday! Try the burgers and cakes!
Paid over $5 for a strawberry shake that barely tasted like strawberries, was crystally (it seems like they put crushed ice cubes in it, or had ancient ice cream), was really thin, and took 10 minutes to get. This is pretty long for a shake that was offered to go, and the place wasn't that busy.
Best place for wings, Italian food, and more!
I go often to have either lunch or dinner. It has always been a pleasant experience, definitely recommend it. I think the food is some of the best in the county.
