“If you crave Italian food with a slight California twist, look no further. The carrots were our favorite appetizer, slightly spicy and extremely flavorful with the tahini, tajin and pine nuts. The pistachio pesto rigatoni was also a standout. If you are comfortable paying slighly more for higher quality food you wont be disappointed. My wife and I will certainly be visiting again.“

“Incredible service, ambience & food. �����“

“Location formerly was El Appetiz. Jary’s has brought it back. Good portions great tasting food. Pizza, Calzones, lasagna, chicken shrimp jambalaya, salads are all excellent. Better to call it in & pick it up. It’s a Hidden secret.“

“Pastaphony serves up a seriously delicious Chicken Pasta Alfredo that hits all the right comfort food notes. The sauce is velvety and rich, and the chicken is perfectly tender and savory. It's just a tiny bit heavy on the cream, making it a pretty intense dish to finish solo, but the overall flavor profile is fantastic. Definitely a spot worth checking out when you're craving a solid plate of pasta!“

“Their UBER YUMMY Spumoni ice cream and their EVEN YUMMIER Masterpiece shake!!!!“

“Best pizza in town! Excellent service and the place is really well run. Very reasonable prices too. Keep it up guys.“

“Small little restaurant but super cute vibe inside. The staff is great. Food is so good! Our favorite is the Avocado Salad & Bambino Pasta. They also have an appetizer that's so good but can't remember the name. It's a shrimp wrapped in bacon with I believe the same sauce as the bambino pasta. Will definitely continue going.“

“My first visit to an Olive Garden and I loved it!! This location was great, lots of parking, friendly staff, and delicious food. Brandy helped us select our food and we loved our dishes. I loved the cheese ravioli!! They also offer curb side pick up. 10/10 would come back. Thank you Brandy!“

“I just order pizza from here from now on. Super good super good price“

“my favorite is the Regina!“

“Very quick service. The staff were friendly and helpful. We were immediately seated and very quickly seen by the server. Our food was fresh and came out incredibly quickly. I always enjoy the fettuccine Alfredo and chicken gnocchi soup. The breadsticks were soft and warm and everything you want them to be. I would highly recommend.“

“This is an italian, european style restaurant that is easy to access from the free-parking lot across the street. It is small so if you're sitting for more than 4 people I would recommend making a reservation.

Starting with service, the waitress was quite attentive to our table. Her timing every check up was decent, not over-asking how we're doing.

I actually liked their menus which were clean, easy to read, though felt like holding a book lol.

When it comes to the food, it was somewhat difficult deciding what my final thoughts were. We ordered calamari, flat bread, meatballs, and charcuterie board. The flat bread was the best thing there. The tomatoes is what really gives it a nice flavor. The charcuterie board of course is just a small selection of cheese, deli meat, and fruit. The calamari was not that great. The squid was a thin cut and overwhelmed by the crust. Additionally, the meatballs were quite bland by not being seasoned enough.

On to the entrees. My sister ordered their tortellini pasta with scallops which was really great. The pesto tasted quite nice and stuck to the pasta really well. I ordered their lasagna with bolognese. The bolognese has a umami taste which would pair well with red wines. The lasagna was coated in a lot of cheese which I loved. Can never have too much cheese. I regret not having any dessert as my impression might have changed a little more.

Looking at the pricing and quality of our food, I can say that I've had better for less. I would consider returning here only if I wanted to impress a girl“

“Had the “Aloha” for dinner… Delicious! We’ll be back. ❤️❤️“

“I arrived during a week day for lunch with my dear friend who lives within walking distance. I was pleasantly surprised with quality and good tasting food. I had the egg plant sandwich's lunch special and salad, very good. The owner/waiter and wife were very nice and friendly, everyone that was there were return customers and very familiar with restaurant, it had family atmosphere. The only thing that drew me back was its dark colors, the room needs a little lighter color. The chief lived in Italy and Paris where he learn to cook, I thought it was very interesting because originally he is from El Salvador so that’s where he gets his Latin infusion. Prices were affordable.“

“Great service and great food 👌.“

“Today is 6/3/26, Tho I have been ordering from here for 40 years. Awesome Food. I change my Ham and Avocado Sandwich order a bit differently. Whenever a girl takes my order does it incorrectly even though she repeats it correctly. Today...Ham and Avocado sandwich with jalapeño slices in sandwich. Lettuce and tomato slices on SIDE. So my sandwich does not get moist. Nope, No jalapeño, lettuce in sandwich very wet, tomatoes on side yes. Last year before doing changes on how I order. Went for a Ham and Avocado sandwich. Went to my friends house to enough lunch. To find NO Ham in my sandwich. I was so pissed, called, girl answered, said that's the way I ordered it. After 40 years really.“

“Claro's is my new go to sandwich shop, fantastic sandwiches at fair prices. My usual is their new sandwich which is the hot bobby. Which is essentially a hot pastrami sandwich. I also highly recommend their desserts. The personal sized banana cream pie is my delectable of choice. Wholeheartedly recommend.“

“Spicy Red Pesto Vodka Linguine with shrimp 🤤“

“Love the ambiance. Great food. Great service and excellent drinks are served at the bar. Great for an intimate dinner or for a special occasion.“

“great place to eat. Place been there for 30 years. a must go!!“

“Everything was good!! Service, food and wine!“

“This was an incredible authentic Italian food find! Angela introduced herself and her team. They are a delight. And the food was incredible! She has perfected her sauce, and the meatballs were perfect! Sorry I forgot to take the picture before we started eating, lol.“

“Their service was excellent. it was quick service, with hot pizza and cold crisp salad. The ranch tasted homemade. The pizza was not greasy like most pizzas. The crust was lite and fluffy. It had a crisp cheesy flavor. The dough was perfect. The look of the pizza is appealing. Overall a 5 star rating.“

“This place is the best in town good customer service always hot always on time and good prices. I’m a loyal customer and I would never go anywhere else.“

“The food is second to none!“

“Best Pizza ANYWHERE!! And the bread sticks with cheese and Roland sauce are a major plus!!! We make a stop in to see if the mistro of pies Joey is in, whenever we are in town, and are never disappointed!! The imported sausage and perfectly cooked crust are amazing!“

“Was surprised by the respectable prices. Ma & Pa pizza shops usually charge a lot more, as most people are fine paying for cheap chain pizza made of ingredients from a factory. To go with the food prices is a great pizza! Way better than expected. The $8.99 for 2 slices and a soda is perfect for the after school kids to meet up after school. My son said it was some of the best garlic toast he's ever had too. I will be returning.“

“Came here before the Covina chris parade and was yummy as usual.“

“Quite literally the best pizza I’ve ever had. Ever since I discovered them it’s the only pizza that I ordered from. A favorite is the red stallion. It’s literally a 10 out of 10! Also love that they have a delivery service!“

“Quick service good pizza & chicken“

“Palermo Bakery has everything you need to feel like you are in Italy! From the welcoming staff the moment you walk through the door, to the decor, to the EXTENSIVE bakery items (that are beyond delicious!), to the pizza, to the coffee, there is truly not a bad choice on the menu! They even have a window to the kitchen so you (or your kids) can watch the magic happen in the kitchen. The first time I went there I was reminded of my Dad and my time in Palermo. They are also very COVID safe in case you are worried about venturing out and about. I would recommend the bakery to anyone needing a slice of Italy in Southern California! ❤️🇮🇹💚“

“All menu items are really good. garlic knots n pasta are favs“

“The food is great, highly recommended. I had the breakfast burrito and my wife had the pork chops and mashed potatoes. Both were delicious. The staff and George are very fast and friendly. You must try it.“

“Pizza is great and they have halal options if you ask for it. Don't order online if you want halal, call in or come in person and explicitly ask for halal. Owner and staff were very friendly and understanding. Recommend this place. Hope to try their other menu items later. Very reasonable prices“

“Best pizza I have ever tasted. Cornmeal crust where have you been all my life. We tried the chicken it was amazing served with potatoes and salad was enough for two ❤️ compliments to the chef“
