Ken Nedbal: I have been wanting to try this place for a while. ordered LG pizza waited approximately 35 minutes. I give the pizza 3 stars was not bad but I had better. From the moment we walked in we were surrounded by pictures and hats of the twice impeached ex president, 2 tvs fox news on both. I wanted a nice dinner with my wife and all we got was politics,sent us very bad vibes needless to say not for us and we will not be back!!!

Linda Raab: Pizza was good, lasagne…I am sorry to say was sub par, although presented nicely, covered with mozzarella and baked in a serving dish. The sauce contained no sauce but an abundance of pea sized sausage, reminded me of something you would get out of a bag, precooked and perfectly uniform, absolutely no ricotta…none. Was such a disappointment. Garlic bread appetizer was served with a tomato meat sauce that was delicious too bad it wasn’t used in the lasagne. The side salad was very good, fresh crispy and delicate lettuce perfect size. The service was excellent! Overall a good experience we will be back for pizza.

Jon Carr: So my family and I went here for the first time, and it was very good, we were on the patio having a great dinner, until my wife noticed that our little 2 year old daughters drink had a bug in it(it was a roach.). I took it into the restaurant and they(the hostess) took it back to the restaurant manager. Yes, there was a discount, but it was only the drinks that were taken out from a 63.00 bill! I never had a problem with a restaurant that replaced the drinks, but more importantly when I tried to talk to the manager about it on the phone after we paid and left, she was very rude! Definitely not coming back. At least not until the Health Department comes and gives the restaurant a good check up. The excuse she gave me was that it was outside and that the cup is open, even though the cup used for my daughter was with a lid on it. Tell me how a roach gets into a closed lid cup.

Smells fabulous in this place. Small Italian grocery area in back. Bakery choices are amazing and delicious. Plus upscale Italian restaurant ... we did not know you need reservations. They did have room in the bar but only tall seating. We'll try again. Great place

Cari Adams: Carmelas is my go to space for Italian food. Quality food and service, I’ve never had a bad experience there and it’s next level compared to some of the Italian version of Dennys in the area. Their mozzarella sticks are a must have every time.

Madeline Baia: Michelle was a very friendly waitress. She helped us with recommendations we wanted to know about the menu. The bruschetta was yummy, the homemade salad dressings delicious creamy garlic, creamy Italian divine. Try the broiled chicken as an appetizer for the table you, you will love it.My husband had the veal parmesan, I had the Shrimp scampi and my nephew had the manicotti and all of us loved the our choices.I love Tiramisu and Sunny Italy had it and I enjoyed it. My nephew loved his cannoli with pistachio crumbs on the ends and my husband enjoyed his very large piece of chocolate cake. If you want a Delicious meal come here, with an excellent dessert to complete your meal. Reservation call or go online to book with open table. Best decision I made in restaurants was going here.

Ross Higginbotham: Sunny Italy is one of my favorite South Bend restaurants. It's been operated by the same family for two generations, and their recipes are phenominal! They're located in a beautiful old building right off of the river walk. They have a great full bar and wonderful food. They also have a private room for events if you call ahead of time.Kid-friendliness: My family has been coming here since we were children. Jimmy (the owner's late father) used to make us kiddy cocktails which was just sprite and cherry juice. While much has changed in 20 years, the family friendly environment has not.Parking: Park on either side of the building! Plenty of room for everyone!
