“Just had my 3rd dining experience this morning and all 3 breakfast meals have been fantastic! As a person on the carnivore diet, I find it refreshing I can order an all protein meal and be completely satiated without paying an arm and a leg. Eggs were scrambled perfectly and the bacon was delicious. And who could have thought a simple burger patty could taste so good. Must be a magic griddle! Highly recommend! Oh, and service is amazing. My Americano was tasty!“

“Had a craving for pizza; thought of this place and ordered a small Original through DoorDash. It did not disappoint. Substantial pizza for a “small” and the price. No skimping with the toppings and was exactly as pictured on the website, so no false advertising. Sauce was just right. Enjoyed the classic crust, too, but may try the thin crust text time.“

“I had a caprese salad & a chicken Caesar wrap (I bet that Caesar never ate wraps), cannolis & an Arnold Palmer. All the food was good and the waiter was friendly and they had the World Cup on. There's outside seating that overlooks the Concord plaza. I highly recommend Cafe Napolina if you ever find yourself hungry in Concord, California.“

“We made our first visit to Ristorante Due Rose last evening (6/2/2023)--what a amazing dinner we had! I had the Linguine Tutto Mare (thin flat pasta with clams, squid, prawns, scallops and fish, seasoned with tomatoes, crushed red pepper, garlic and white wine.). I think the best Italian dish I have ever had (and I have been to Italy). The pasta was cooked to perfection--none of the flavorless stuff you might find elsewhere, and the sauce was out of this world. My husband had the Grigliata di Mare (Grilled scallops, prawns, calamari, parsley, lemon sauce, roasted potatoes and arugula salad) and also raved about it. Great service and reasonable prices. 💞We will definitely be back!“

“Vinnie's is an East Bay gem.

The pizza is authentic - thin, Brooklyn-style dough and tremendous red sauce. You can tell they use quality ingredients, and they don't skimp on the toppings, either.

Whenever I order takeout, I always order some meatballs, too. They're packed with flavor, light, and come with a generous serving of their delicious marinara.

Vinnie's also has fantastic handmade desserts - both their tiramisu and cannoli are fantastic.

Oh, and they make REALLY tasty garlic knots as well. You're going to want 2 orders, trust me.

I'll also add that the staff and owner are super friendly, generous people. They've donated gift cards and t-shirts to my daughter's school auction multiple times, and are genuinely kind, caring folks. Vinnie's will forever be my go-to to-go pizza place!“

“Just tried Tandoori Pizza for the first time and were blown away. The pizza crust is delicious, not too much sauce on the pizzas, and packed full of flavor.

We tried the Tandoori Chicken pizza and the Butter Chicken pizza. They smelled and tasted incredible. My husband said it was genuinely the best pizza he has had in years. So different yet made complete sense. This is our new pizza place now.“

“Always delicious! And they have gluten free pizza for my son.“

“Mmm mmm mmmmm!! Let me just say I have been a reward member here pretty much! Chicken Gorgonzola wow! The fresh bread! The pizza! Mmm man this is the spot for some good food, great service and nice dining. Thank you all for constantly making it a great place to visit! Don’t believe me? Let’s go! Vamonos!

Oh oh and the calamariiiiiii wow!“

“The best in whole area... love their veggie placido Domingo! Special mayo is perfect. The pastrami is tasty also. Never change... not sure if you can get any better?“
