Da Vinci Ristorante Italiano

I have heard about this restaurant for a while but every time I called, they were booked. Yesterday (Wed) was my mom’s birthday so I decided to bring her here & OMG! This restaurant has now become my absolute favorite restaurant. It’s small (which is why is often booked) but the ambiance makes you feel like you’re in small town in Italy, the music adds to the ambience and the service is just superb! I wonder if our waiter was the owner because he was truly amazing (the other staff were great as well). Now let’s talk about the food. The flavor was fresh & unique. We loved it. The presentation was over the top and super cute! From the salt & pepper, to the plates/bowls, to the spoons & the coffee cup! Just amazing! I will come here next time I’m having a bad day, a sad day, a happy day, a special celebration, an intimate meeting, date night, birthday or just anything I want to create a memorable occasion for. We loved it!

Abel and Ryan were awesome, gracious, and hilarious. Came here for mother’s day with my family (who’ve all been here except for me). Food was incredible. Small authentic Italian atmosphere.

Eating at Da Vinci’s is always an experience. The ambience, the food, the way the waiter recites the menu that is written on a chalkboard, the delicious gourmet food. I enjoy coming here on special occasions as it’s not a cheap restaurant and today was my mom’s birthday so I thought it would be a nice treat to take her to dine there. Unfortunately the waitress we got today did not give us the the friendly service we are accustomed to get here. She was rushing us to order. I don’t know if she was new but she was basically reading the menu off a paper, really fast, and that took a lot out of the experience. Up until today that had never happened to me so I will still come back, I believe we were just unlucky with the service. The food was still amazing and we still got the delicious complimentary cheesecake for my mom’s birthday.

The spot is an excellent yet quaint spot for a first date or a special occasion with really good Italian food. But the best part is the service

First time was amazing. Enjoyed the evening with my family. The service was great. Spent three hours having a awesome dinner The calamari had get flavor and texture I had the asparagus wrapped in prosciutto Stuffed with goat cheese. Amazing! The entrees blew me away! Will be back. Best food in Katy!! Thank you!

Da Vinci Ristorante Italiano captures the spirit of Italian dining with its cozy, elegant atmosphere and warm hospitality. The decor feels authentically Italian, blending rustic touches and artistic details that create a welcoming space for both intimate dinners and special occasions. We were invited to this restaurant, and our friends kept talking about it for so long that we finally had to see for ourselves — and it truly lived up to all the praise. The menu is a true celebration of Italy’s culinary tradition. Freshly made pastas like the rich fettuccine Alfredo and the delicate lobster ravioli stand out for their bold flavors and perfect texture. Wood-fired pizzas arrive with crisp, airy crusts and high-quality toppings. Seafood and meat dishes, like the tender veal scaloppine and the branzino, are prepared with great attention to authenticity and flavor. Each plate is thoughtfully presented, balancing rustic charm with refined technique. Desserts at Da Vinci are just as memorable. The house-made tiramisu is light, creamy, and perfectly balanced, while the panna cotta and cannoli offer a sweet finish that lingers beautifully. Paired with an Italian espresso or a dessert wine, they round out the meal with a perfect touch of indulgence. Service is attentive and knowledgeable, with staff eager to help you select the perfect wine or dish. Although it can get busy during peak hours, the overall experience remains smooth and enjoyable. Da Vinci Ristorante Italiano is a wonderful choice for anyone craving authentic, beautifully prepared Italian cuisine in a warm and charming setting.

My boyfriend took me here for my birthday and I absolutely loved it! The restaurant is cozy and intimate, which made it feel very romantic. I’ve always loved the Mona Lisa, so dining at a place called DaVinci made me feel like I was in Europe. Our server, Brian, was wonderful—attentive and friendly without being overbearing. The red wine was fantastic, and both the appetizer and entrées were absolutely delicious. I highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a special night out. Even though it’s a little on the pricey side, it’s completely worth it for a special night, you won’t regret it!

Delicious food, unique restaurant! I wish it was closer to home for us. We went with friends. Our server (Shannon) described each of the dishes to us from the chalkboard menu. That is right up our alley - we are foodies at heart. Our group of four shared the scrumptious crab cake with extra lump crab meat, Caprese, and another appetizer. My husband and I shared the surf and turf. We finished off the night with chocolate mousse (made in house) and beautifully presented!! Highly recommend this place and suggest making reservations because it’s a small place. We will be back!
