7 Best Italian Restaurants in Big Bear Lake

“Charming Spot, Delicious Food, and Outstanding Service
We recently dined at La Pergola and were thoroughly impressed. The location is perfect, nestled in the heart of The Village, which was beautifully decorated with Christmas lights during our visit. It added a lovely touch to the overall ambiance.
We were blown away by the service – truly 5-star quality! The staff was attentive, friendly, and made us feel very welcome.
The food was delicious. We particularly enjoyed the Pasta Alfredo Di Verde, which was a pleasant surprise. It wasn't something we would typically order, but it was recommended, and we were not disappointed!
We were so full from our meal that we couldn't resist taking a cannolo to go. And let me tell you, it was a great decision! We devoured it later, and it was the perfect sweet treat to end our experience.
Overall, La Pergola provided a wonderful dining experience. The combination of delicious food, impeccable service, and charming location makes it a must-visit when in Big Bear. We highly recommend it!“

“If you’re looking to get married, or a venue for a large gathering I would recommend Santana Mavericks 1000%!! We just had our wedding here on the 19th. Susana, and her team outdid themselves. They took care of all of the decor, set up, food, and clean up. They completely exceeded our expectations, and made the day incredibly special for us. The views are incredible, and the atmosphere was so romantic. We had the most amazing wedding day, and I can’t thank Santana Mavericks and the staff enough. The food was incredible, and all of our friends and family had the best time.“

“I ordered a large pepperoni pizza with spaghetti and meat sauce. The pizza was delicious, fresh, and well baked. I wasn't impressed with their spaghetti. It was bland. The garlic bread was ok. Overall, I would recommend the pizza here. Great customer service. Nice atmosphere.“
