First impressions matter. Place is clean and plenty of nice decor. Ambient feels like a sports bar not a fine dining spot. Appetizers came after our meals. Not impressed with their mix drinks. Food was blend and cold. Waiter offered bread but forgot to provide it. They have plenty of competition around. Step up your game. I will update if things change. Enjoy!

Sharing as I came in on a night where it was not a normal night (winter formal for the local high school). This restaurant has pretty decent food although there were some flaws with regard to service and overall ambiance. At the corner of the restaurant was an employee catch-all table that was littered with jackets, water bottles and random items. Walking by this really had me in question. Also, booths seem tiny and confined. I would recommend sitting either at the bar or high top table when visiting. I did not try the pizza but was told it has a nice crust.

We celebrated a birthday with 12 people. Easy reservation process, nice outdoor seating with live music, string lights and heaters, staff was great from the hostess to the waiter and the bartender. The manager was great and checked on us really nice lady. They allowed us to bring a cake and placed it in their refrigerator for us. Then at the end of our dinner they brought it out with plates and table ware. Great Italian restaurant highly recommend.

I was happy to see a new restaurant in RSM and decided to meet a friend there for dinner.

Friendly, casual atmosphere and prices are fairly reasonable. I ordered the Chicken Ceasar Salad: dressing was mostly oil, not much flavor, the thin chicken strips were very dry and way too salty I HOPE they will improve on my favorite dish soon.

Last night was the second time we went to Alza’s for dinner. What got our attention and led us there to begin with was the band, Vintage Vinyl, playing in the courtyard area. You can also eat outside or go into the air-conditioned restaurant and bar. We chose to be outside both times. The band plays 60’s through 80’s music, I believe and are really, really good. Not too loud – you can still have conversations while they are playing. The food is very good – the charcuterie board (small) is absolutely beautiful and has way too much on it for 2 people. Salads were good, mushroom risotto was awesome, pizza was fantastic. I don’t recall what dishes everyone had but we all had ample portions and brought a to-go box for home. Comparable prices to the area. If you want to have a fun time in a fun-filled atmosphere, go to Alza’s when Vintage Vinyl is there. You might even get up and dance!

My friend and I stopped at Alza Italian Kitchen for lunch today! We got there about 12:30 and they had a nice lunch crowd. I wanted to sit at the bar so we just walked in and sat right down. They had a very nice selection of craft beer! I ordered a Hazy IPA. It was very good. Nice and cold! We both ordered the chicken Parm, one of my favorites. It came with a bowl of soup, Italian Sausage and vegetables. That was fantastic, so good I was tempted to order another bowl. But the chicken Parm arrived just then. Tender chicken breast with Provolone cheese and marinara sauce on a bed of pasta. That hit the spot. We both agreed how good everything was. I left the server a great tip and she earned it! The service was fast and friendly. I would highly recommend Alza to anyone!

Only go here if you have LOTS of time. Food come out of the kitchen very slowly. One good thing was that the music was nice and low; you didn’t have to shout at each other like some places.

This was my first visit, but it definitely won’t be my last. The food was excellent and the wait staff was great. I came with two friends and we hung out to chat, we were never rushed.
