Editorial Review for Caffe Molise – by Helen Hodgson
The Scene
The fountain in Dinwoody Plaza sounds like a babbling brook, making outdoor dining the choice for warm days. Inside, business associates and couples converge on this downtown spot for authentic Italian food in comfortable surroundings.
The Food
Sauces are secret family recipes; dishes, simply and tastefully prepared and presented. At lunch, pair the bruschetta and herbed white bean puree with a classic Mediterranean salad for a light and satisfying meal. Or try a spicy Italian sausage sandwich, served with roasted peppers and provolone on freshly made herbed focaccia. For a heartier lunch or dinner, the creamy polenta stands out, as do the varied pastas--from meat sauces to imaginative combinations of tomatoes, vegetables, and herbs. Don't miss the tiramisu for dessert. It's made on the premises and is irresistible.

I can't relate to the negative reviews on this place. I have never have a bad meal here. I have been coming for more than five years. Parking can be tricky if you demand close and free- if you are a little more reasonable then you will plan accordingly to avoid disappointment. Come on, it's the city! Take trax! We love the specials and also the gnochi. But the Sunday Brunches are to die for! I am scared to mention it because it feels like our little secret and we never have to wait to get in Sunday morning. Eggs benedict, proper breakfast sandwiches, and mimosas!

Came so highly recommended to me, a foodie, and I remember looking at my "Power of Intention" cards today reminding me to give love, although all people may not deserve it... I entered with a warm open heart, and was sourly disappointed, from moment 1. Highlights: wiated nearly 10 min for uninterested waitor, borishly recited specials...about 15 min of empty glass of wine. Had to ask other server for another glass. Weak overly oily salad, And bland entree!! Bruschetta-best part of night. Complete waste my money when all I expected was some life out of the waistaff and the food. Save your money and go to Trio.
Pros: Bruschetta, Good Jazz on Friday nights
Cons: bored servers, don't care. Food was poor, bland, could've gotten better food at Olive Garden
