    This I really enjoyed. Relaxing varying music including Italian. The dimmed light atmosphere was also very calming for me. My male company wasn't impressed waiting for his bread until he got his food. The sauce wow. We realized at the end that they put the bread in the oven fresh, that explains why it took a while. Also very important for those with food allergies, the owner was sensitive to my needs, suggesting good items and augmentations that suited my needs. And my waitress was not stuffy, which I would normally expect from an upscale experience like this. Would love to take my mother here but she's legally blind and would not be able to see in there. If they had an outdoor patio, I wasn't aware, but would be great for her. This place has an old world feel which is really interesting. They didn't have sweet tea, only unsweet. My water seemed like chlorinated tap, I only drink spring now due to health issues. So I wish they had better drink choices. Still gave 5 stars due to the service. People with food allergies don't get service like that in this city no matter how hard they try. That's why we stay home and cook. So many kudos for that.

    Some dishes are good, but the place is dirty and dark. As stated below the owner is very very rude, even to regulars. There are too many great casual restaurants in the area where we are welcome, the resturant is clean and charming and the food is much better.

    Sorry to say the wait and kitchen staff seem overwhelmed with life. Brought my wife for a special birthday meal - she might have celebrated 2 b’days as long as as it took for the food to be served. In fact we never ate, we waited - again, and told them to just box up the food and we’d take it to go. Ms. Barringer, I think it’s time for you to find a buyer and retire.

    Pinetta's is an old icon of Baton Rouge. The ambiance, dimly lit with European accents, takes me back to my trip through Italy! Friday night was a crowd, but we got a table. The servers were a bit overwhelmed and slow, but very good. I have to say the red sauce on Veal Parmesan was excessively dark with too much sweet onion. I prefer more garlic. My father's seafood ravioli was devine. I wished for some more authentic European bread, maybe sourdough, that is a bit more healthy. No hard liquor, only beer and wine. Still the European charm is winning and different for BR!

    My wife and I frequent Pinetta's for a reliable delicious Italian meal in Baton Rouge when there. Their red sauce has a nice kick, and the atmosphere sets just the right mood to set you up for a good night. Solid date spot.
