Giuseppes Restaurant and Pizzeria on Shadow Ridge Road

"One might think Guiseppes is another vacation resort restaurant serving small portions of overpriced food. At least that's what we expected. It's quite the opposite. Recently reopened as Guiseppes, the restaurant is independent from the resort and as such, the food is quite good, portions are quite large and the prices are definitely reasonable. The deep dish pizza we ordered was stuffed to the brim and well made. We only ate a third of it before taking it to go. Another good option is to order the sides, as many as you can. At $5 each the portions are perhaps overly generous and gives you a chance to sample various items from the kitchen. We found the meatballs to be particularly delicious. The restaurant has a spacious villa vibe and is festive during peak hours. They have a full bar and a sports bar type area where you can watch a game. Service was good. Our friendly server checked on us a few times. We were pleasantly surprised by our dining experience at Guiseppes. Offering good value along with good food, Guiseppes is worth a visit and a repeat visit if you're a resident at the resort."

"We sat on the deck with a beautiful view of Shadow Ridge Golf Course. We were there for lunch and it wasn't too crowded. There are lots of tables both inside and outside. My wife had the vodka sauce noodles with crumbled Italian sausage. She said it was very good. I had the Italian sausage and peppers sandwich. It was good, but the fries came cold and undercooked. They made up for it by bringing a side of pasta salad, which also was good. The service was excellent and the restaurant was very clean."

"Our server, Summer, was great! Super knowledgeable about the menu and gave us great recommendations! Eggplant parm, chicken piccata, and meat lasagna was a huge hit! We also love having a restaurant on the Marriott property. Will definitely come back!"
