Nino's Italian House - Auburn Hills

Very nice atmosphere. Friendly staff. Very nice portion sizes for the price. Fed a family of three for less than $40, we all with full bells. The pizza is huge. My family will often visit this place. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

I rarely leave reviews, but I feel like it's important to be honest here as the reviews were, which led me to one of the worst meals I've ever had. I have no complaints about the physical restaurant or server, but the food was terrible. The salad was bland and badly chopped, bread was old and chew like a dry sponge, and the pasta dish I ordered should have ?roasted veggies? and garlic. The vegetables were steamed, pasta was overcooked, and the dish was comparable to a frozen meal, but with less taste. I asked for warm marinara sauce to mix to fix it and it came with gritty pieces like sand in what I did not notice until I had mixed it. Just terrible. To make something worse, I took the Tiramisu to go and it was dusted like the foam from a couch with some cocoa on top (see pictures attached). I hate being picky, but this meal was completely unpredictable and I don't want anyone else to pay for such a disappointing meal as there are other possibilities nearby.

Not authentic pasta over boiled and vegetables were all frozen, mushrooms were preserved. Also the chicken was not fresh chicken breast. Caesar Salat had nothing but raw and light dressing. no parm no crumbs (they were outside? Sister in law had read it like 10 layers of noodles without filling. We asked for Parm and they're not fresh. Was super disappointed. Service was great, young girl was really nice.

Went out for date night with another pair and were quite nervous when we read the negative reviews. We just wanted to have a cocktail and then go somewhere else for dinner, but then we decided to stay and see for ourselves how the experience would be. Here's our take: waitress was okay. Maybe she was new, but we had to leave her every time we needed refills on the water or more wine. The food was really pretty good. I liked the red sauce very much, what, as an Italian and a home cook itself, was certainly a surprise. The atmosphere was very warm and welcoming and we stayed chatting for so long, we ordered dessert. It was okay. Brownie and the ice cream were good, but I'd rather have had a hot fudge and no chocolate sauce, but it wasn't bad. All in all, it was just in the middle of the street. Not 5 stars fabulous, but certainly not 1 stars terrible.

I have never had a more bland flavorless gross dish. My meal was described as having roasted veggies. The identifiable veggies in it were definitely frozen and canned. The Caesar salad I ordered was even gross?.how do you mess up a salad?! The bread was even stale sliced hard baguette served with diner packets of butter. Super disappointed. Waitress we had was kind but definitely not the greatest at her job. Our glasses were never refilled and she didn?t really offer much of a solution when we told her the food was gross. None of it was touched when we left. I don?t know how this place is still in business honestly. It reminds me of a restaurant that needs to be on kitchen nightmares. 10/10 do NOT recommend. Do not go here.
