"If you 're in a pinch and jonesin for italian food, this is your spot. First impression: Luby 's of italian food. To be fair, Mandola 's doesn 't have the food sitting out buffet style and someone plating it for you. Not knocking it, it just reminded me of going to Luby 's and standing in line to order your food. The line moves quite fast; ponder the menu while you wait inline and by the time you finish and decide what you 'll have, you 'll be at the counter. You place your order at the counter then go grab a seat. Their service is pretty speedy, as our side salad order was there in no time. The entrees came out before we got done with salads.The salad wasn 't as fresh; felt it was made earlier in the day and refrigerated. Not saying it was bad, just not as fresh as freshly cut greens.We had thin spaghetti, one with shrimp one with 1 meatball. The shrimp were fresh and the meatball was a baseball sized and pretty tasty. The sauce, in my humble opinion, lacked flavor. From the description of the ingredients, garlic, basil and olive oil, I 'd expect a pretty tasty dish oozing garlic, basil and olive oil but all those flavors were lacking. Also, it seemed as when the pasta was cooked, it wasn 't cooked in enough salt. IDK, maybe it 's me and maybe I 'm used how I cook my pasta and sauces. Either way, dish was good, just added a dash of salt and pepper.It has quite a steady number of patrons so it must be good and maybe I went on an off night. I may return to try something else."

This is the best Italian restaurant I've been to, and the atmosphere is fantastic! I also highly recommend trying the appetizers!

We had the chance to try a new gelato flavor today—caramel macchiato! It’s absolutely delicious! Available throughout April! Five stars!!!

Mandola's at Arbor's Trails is my family's favorite spot. They get the food and service right every time we visit! Thanks to the staff who helped with the pizza kits for my daughter's birthday. They were delicious as well as a great birthday activity. Thank you Mandola's View menu

Some of the most delicious Italian food in Austin, and this location is very conveniently located in the southwest area.I highly recommending ordering lunch here. I usually get a panini and soup, and I absolutely love that they include their homemade bread, oil, and spices for dipping at home.One time they did forget something in my takeout order, but I called them and they offered a free cake which was very nice!

This place nailed the vibe yet also has that food chain feel. The entire staff is always on the job. We love ordering out from here. The portions are solid. The small Italian market is a let down. They sell wine, gelato, pasta, pasta sauce but no meat and no cheese. Kinda an Italian market fail in my book. But I'm not going here for any of those items anyway just avoiding cooking dinner and want something other than tacos that will hit the spot!

Delicious food and a wonderful atmosphere! My wife and I celebrated our 29th wedding anniversary at this restaurant, and we were absolutely delighted. It's one of our favorite Italian spots. The only minor issue we encountered was that you need to place your order before sitting at a table. If you're hoping for a good table, you might have to wait to order, and by then, the table you wanted could be taken. It’s not a significant problem, though. Overall, I would give it a perfect 10 out of 10! View menu

My mom has found this place and it was the best decision we've made for 2023!Wonderful Bruschetta, so fresh, perfectly baked with fresh tomato and well balanced olive oiled blend.The oven baked lasagna was perfect, just pure perfection. Cheeses used for lasagna were so fresh, nothing was overly salty, just so well-made dish.I am so happy to find this Italian jewel.The interior design is interesting, enthusiastic, and exciting.Will be back with my mom for upcoming mother's day.Molto bene! Quests e la migliore cucina italiana finora!Buono! Squisito! Gustoso! And that'a almost all Italian I know lol..

Lived here for so long and yet this was my first time coming to a Mandola's! So you stand in line to order first, and then go sit down and they'll bring you your food. They start you off with free bread and olive oil which was honestly delicious. We ordered: 1. Garlic bread with mozz not good. I wish they made it on their free bread, which is so soft and thick and foccacia like. But instead it comes on kind of a crostini style bread. 2. Pugliese pizza really good portion for the price. Definitely tasty as well 3. Lunette pasta this was good but nothing amazing for me personally. Will probably try another one next time. 4. Ended with their gelato which is a separate area that you order from d...
