This restaurant seems to be popping on weekends so i went there on a Monday lunch to avoid the crowd and ensure better service and food. That was not the case! The caesar salad tastes like va-jay-jay (if you don't belive me, try it) and I'm gay so you know I hated it. Then our crazy waitress (she must smoke ice) told us they lost our order but found it (translation: she forgot to put our order in). Finally we recieved our food, which was the wrong order! We didn't have time for them to fix it so we ate it and it was something i could have gotten at the Olive Garden on time and probably tastier.

Pros: Lovely dining room

Cons: Most everything else

I had a great time at Vill-O. My friend and I had lunch on the patio. The service was excellent, and very accomodating. They had a great drink list, with new and refreshing ideas. We shared the margarita pizza, which we added chicken to. The restaurant was beautiful. You could tell who ever the designer was paid attention to every detail, down to the beautiful turquise water glasses. Aparently there are some cleptos in Dallas, because one of the servers told us that after the first week of opening several of these glasses went missing! All together, we enjoyed our time, our service, drinks, and people watching. I would deffinately go back and recomend it to others.

I was anxious to try this place because the patio looked so inviting. However, after me and my three friends were literally ignored for an hour at the bar (it was practically empty, there were maybe 10 people total sitting there) I grew concerned. We were then seated and waited about 20 minutes for our server to bring us menus and take our drink order. When my drink glass literall broke in my hand and cut it, I called the manager over who apologized and started to walk off, then turned around and asked me if I would like another drink! Our server came back once to deliver our food, actually quite decent, and then never returned to fill our drinks or even ask us if we were interested in desert. I finally got up from the table, found him and requested that he please bring our check, which took another 15 minutes. It was a terrible experience. I am not picky about restaurants, all I ask is decent service and food. And then I am a loyal customer for life. But my experience here made me feel as if Villa-O was literally unconcerned with the experience of their customers. I will never go back.

The food at Villa-O is very good - from Pizza to scallops but the service is consistently sub par. My first experience I assumed poor service was b/c they had only been open for a couple of weeks. The second time, the waiter actually forgot to wait on my table. Same experience the third time. The fourth time we were given a wait time of 30 minutes for a table on the patio. An hour an a half later, they sat us at a bar table and did not offer to comp our meal or drinks. For owners who are experienced in the industry, it's pathetic to see this kind of service.

Pros: pizza, drinks, ambiance

Cons: service, attitude of wait staff and management
