geraldi's

absolutly wonderfulfoodand great service! pizza was awesome!

greatfoodand service! but my spaghetti noodles tasted cold. and my sauce was bland, but the meatballs are amazing!

horrible catering experience. i tried to let management know about our horrible catering event that we received from geraldi's. no one has responded.

it was so late that we had to start our even without eating. by the time the speakers finished speaking thefoodwas cold. the intention was to have everyone get theirfoodand eat while the speakers were speaking. obviously this didn't happen. not only was thefoodlate and cold when we got to actually eat, but if you look at the attached photos you can see how the salad was all brown and wilted. it was disgusting to even look at. i personally could have made a better salad at home. not at all what everyone was expecting.

not only was it late and the salad wilted, but the guy that brought it was extremely rude!!!!!!!!! several associates witnessed his rude behavior. totally unacceptable in my book!!!!!!

ate here thursday. making reservations for saturday. need i say more? momma mias and pesto veggie pizza to die for. atmosphere not the best but withfoodlike this who cares?

very goodfoodand service. stopped by on a friday for lunch and was one of three tables so seated right away with no wait. tried the lasagna, cheese pizza and garlic bread. it was all good. and very reasonable prices.

i love this place!! it's definitely one of our favorites in fayetteville. excessively reasonable prices for everything (except beer, they are kinda proud of it).foodis sooooo good.

excellentfoodand at a really good price.
highly recommended!
service is good. the location is close to the university and very close to dickson street. so a place to eat then hit the town.

what a great, reasonably priced place.foodis wonderful and the service is good. it's a hidden treasure of fayetteville!@ we had the lasagna and the chicken parmesan and both were excellent. portions are huge! try the davinci chianti! wonderful!

one of the best italian restaurants i've eaten at! loved how big the portions were and how high quality thefoodwas. the lasagna is to die for! highly recommended.

the best italianfoodin nwa. i've been here more times than any other restaurant in fayetteville and i'll continue to come back. best italian in northwest arkansas and the bestfoodof any in fayetteville. if i need a place to take family or friends, this is most likely the winner.

amazing. i could go on and on about how much i love this place but i will summarize. ifoodis amazing and the price and portions are even better!

most underrated spot in fay. in my opinion this has to be one of the best if not the best eatery in nwa.foodis always on point, while not being overpriced. here's my go to order:
start with the antipasto- its basically a big salad with some rolled up meats and cheese's, great to split (ideal for 4) works for 2.
if your in the mood for a sandwich i like the italian geraldi, or the meatball. if its dinnertime and your wanting something more appropriate its hard to beat the calzone.
i always get a bottle of chianti because im a lush and it feels right drinking italian wine at an italian restaurant.
overall rating- a. place is solid, top to bottom.

top italian restaurant in fayetteville. anti-pasto, sandwiches, calzones, ny style pizza's.... and an incredible pistacio gelato. great prices as well, a must go.

great.. got the chance to try this place yesterday after putting it off for forever - after all cheap italian is always a worrisome topic. geraldi's is a sneaky little italian joint nestled down one of those roads you probably rarely go down unless you live on it or went on it for the sole intent to get to geraldi's (or perhaps wes's). not a terribly big place and the interior is certainly nothing special (honestly the giant median in the middle kind of kills the restaurant flow). it was a tough choice between one of the delicious sounding sandwiches and one of the noodle dishes. i opted for the safe route - spaghetti with meatballs. the portion was huge. the noodles were all well prepared (but did have that "already made" flavor to them) and the sauce was very, very good. the accompanying garlic bread was more buttery than garlic-y, but still enjoyable as an appetizer. the meatballs were a wee bit mushy, but still had a nice flavor (though could use a little extra spice). service was very fast and the waitress was especially friendly in both greet/departure and table side. overall, if you're seeking italianfoodthen you won't find better in fayetteville (especially for the price and portion). my only complaint is the additive meatballs were basically a dollar a piece and not very generous in size. i look forward to visiting again and trying out more of their selection!

thoroughly disappointed. i could have made better spaghetti from a can! not a jar, but a can, where i would need a can opener to get it. i understand that most restaurants precook their noodles, but at least you could have heated it up. the meatballs tasted like mush! i ordered a dinner salad and it came after my food, the waitress said "oh, they didn't see it on the order" she never came back to check how thefoodwas, she knew! i would have done the same if i had to bring that to someone's table. i'm from out of town, the first time i ate there i had pizza. guess if you order something they have to make you might be o.k. the service was awful the first time and was just as bad the second. this is what you guys call good italian? walked out with almost a $20 bill for spaghetti w/meatballs, a salad and beer. never, never, never going back! rather eat tree bark!

most of the complaints here are about the service. it isn't the servers' fault that management only has 1 person at a time to answer the phone, wait tables, and be cashier! yes it's slow sometimes, but so is service at most non-chains. and as a student i appreciate a business making an effort to employ students.

now, regarding the food! i went with my family, and even though not everyone splitfoodthe prices were very reasonable. the sandwich, salad, and pizza we ordered were quite large and delicious. all in all, we were totally satisfied with this first trip and will be back. the waitress even gave us to-go cups for drinks!
