Cucina 503 - Augusta

Really enjoyed our evening out at this lovely, family friendly, Italian restaurant. The food and drinks were great. Service was pretty good as well. We started with cocktails and oh my goodness, the Colada Verde was amazing. It was creamy and delightful, sweet, with a minty bite from the absinthe. You could taste each ingredient, which blended so well. We also tried a watermelon mojito, which tasted great and looked really cool. To start we shared a caprese salad, which they split into two plates for us. This was excellent!! Really nicely done. We also had the meatball plate. Also good, although an interesting combo with the meatballs served on polenta that was a consistency of grits, which was nice. Our main meals were lasagna delicious, and a chicken and mushroom pappardelle pasta which was creamy, rich, and delicious. And dessert, of course! Delicious panna cotta and tiramisu. Not good. We enjoyed the food and atmosphere and highly recommend. Relaxed atmosphere and great menu options. I’m not sure if there’s a kids menu but it seemed like it would be family friendly. Vegetarian options: There are some vegetarian options.

Everything on their menu is amazing. They make their own butter and pastas. The balsamic vinaigrette butter they make is very good. They have a variety of proteins as well as dishes for vegans. I highly recommend the garden flatbread, fritto misto, and their ribeye. The in-house sous-vide meatballs are also very good. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Not at all impressed with the food. Service was great. The atmosphere was not bad but the wall we sat next to was disgusting with grease/oil and food splattered on it. You can tell they never clean those. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $50–100 Food: 1 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 3 Recommended dishes: Lasagna
