“We had a delicious and wonderful experience at Giovanettis. We were welcomed in to the restaurant with a smile and friendly Hostess who later went over the daily specials with passion. Her passion for the food and the description of each dish was inspiring.
Our server was great - turned us on to a delicious wine from Sicily which was surprisingly reasonably priced. I had the Salmon alla checca. Wow was this delicious! The Salmon was cooked perfectly and the pasta had a fresh tomato, garlic, basil topping, light on the oil. This was a perfect dish. Prior to the pasta we started with a salad and bread - The salad was fresh, crisp, flavorful with a yummy light dressing and the bread was served with real butter, not whipped or altered just real butter - delicious.
Service was impeccable and the food outstanding. We are new regulars!“

“Nucci’s was the perfect place to host my dad’s 80th birthday. They closed the restaurant on a Friday night for our family, and the experience was nothing short of amazing. The food was outstanding, homemade, authentic, and made with so much love. If you’re looking for a place to celebrate a family milestone, I highly recommend Nucci’s. Huge thank you to Maria and Mike for an unforgettable night, everyone is still raving about the dinner!“

“We loved the food. The place is very large with a good size banquet room.I had stuffed shells and the Salmon The Salmon was a little undercooked for out tasted. It was cooked Alaska style. We sent back and a few minutes later it came back perfect. There's a large wine selecting coming from several countries. The price was reasonable.“

“Excellent authentic Italian food. The arancini was crisp on the outside with a very thin layer of rice and was oozing with filling of cheese and spinach a the carbonara was perfection with no cream and the creaminess of egg yolks and pasta water. We have spent time in Italy and are planning to move to Italy in months and this was Italy. Perfection!“

“Wow—this place is fantastic all around! The food, service, ambiance, and even the seating were top-notch. The manager stopped by to check on us, which was a really nice touch. Our server, Reda, was outstanding—couldn’t have asked for better service. This is officially our new go-to spot. Thank you, Vigilucci’s in the Village!“

“My wife and I had an incredible first experience at Anila’s Cucina Rustica, and it definitely won’t be our last. We even had the pleasure of meeting Chef Anila herself, which made the evening feel even more special.

We started with the burrata and caponata with eggplant appetizer fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. I had the braised short rib and the zuppa di pesce, both outstanding. The short rib was tender and rich, and the seafood in the zuppa was perfectly cooked and full of flavor. My wife ordered the penne alla vodka and loved every bite.

What really sets this place apart is the feeling. Chef Anila has such a warm, homey presence, like a mother cooking with love for her family. You can taste that care in every dish. From the fresh bread and butter to the attentive and friendly service, everything was thoughtful and welcoming. From the moment they took my name down to the time we finished our meal, we felt genuinely taken care of.

Highly recommend. A true gem.“

“This is where my wife and I met on our first date . It holds significant emotional meaning but it's also simply amazing food. we never have any issue and we bring family and friends here often.“

“the best ! never disappointed“

“Hole in the wall Italian. A very good deal for home Italian food.

Service was very good; we were the only people in there today and everything was quick. They were attentive without hovering, and very accommodating.

The menu prices were outdated and they were out of some things - this place needs a little love and more customers.

My fiancé and I had fettuccine Alfredo, penne arrabiata, two Cokes, and garlic bread. We spent $38 (plus tip). My fiancé enjoyed the fettuccine - there are carrots in it, which give it an earthy flavor. I had a bite and would add a bit of salt and crushed red pepper, but that’s my taste. I enjoyed the arrabiatta. It’s a spicy pasta, around a medium to hot in a Mexican food scale. The sauce was chunky and they didn’t skimp on the Parmesan, which was powdered. The garlic bread was a great texture, crunchy and buttery and soft all at once.

We will definitely return, and I encourage you to go if you want a quiet night with comfort food at a good price.“

“Excellent costumer service from the hostesses to the bar , I like to recognize Bartender/Server Elias went above and beyond to make us feel welcome he was amazing. 5⭐️“

“Delicious spaghetti 🍝 great service“

“My husband and I have been ordering takeout from this restaurant for a while now, and I’ve always loved their Shrimp Scampi, Hawaiian pizza, and Tiramisu. So, when planning an office function, I decided to order easy-to-eat lunch options and pizza from here—and I’m so glad I did! All of my colleagues absolutely loved the Chicken Parmigiana Sandwich and the pizza. As mentioned, the Shrimp Scampi is my go-to dish and never disappoints. The customer service was outstanding. Mr. Jesse was incredibly accommodating, especially with our tight lunch window. He made sure our order was ready for pickup right at 11:30, allowing us to enjoy our meal on time. The packaging made distribution easy, and the food was just as delicious as expected. We’ll definitely be placing another order for our next office function next week!“

“I went for a late lunch and we were seated in a very back room with plenty of natural lighting. My brother walked with a cane and should have been seated closer to the restroom, but didnt ask. The server was new. Placed the refill salad bowl inside the empty salad bowl. Otherwise he was pretty good. The soup I had tasted watered down, but not enough to complain.“

“Great Carlsbad location. Something for everyone. Had their aoli artichoke and it was so yummy. Fast service great food.“

“I have been coming here for 45 years and it the best Italian good place around. The three sisters that run it are amazing women that take pride in their work always so uplifting and with a smile on there faces. If you haven’t tried this place what are you waiting for. Get in there and taste everything they have to offer you can’t go wrong with anything you order. And with plenty of leftovers for lunch the next day😀“

“The staff at the Vista location are awesome! They are all young and energetic. They make their guests feel important.
On an occasion that we waited a little longer for our food, the young manager came over with a $20 gift card for the inconvenience. Nice touch and smart way to make sure your guests come back!“

“Hi y’all, I’m not from this area, as a matter of fact I can’t even remember the last time I was. However my wife had passed through here several months earlier and had the pleasure of spending a little time here at Marco’s Pizza.

It was such a great experience for her we decided to make it a point to visit and pick up a pizza, some of those cheesy breadsticks and the chicken wings. Once again Marco’s delivered an amazing meal.

We are on a 3 day conference for our church and were delighted to find out It was right down the road from this Marco’s.

The staff is super friendly, and the food is absolutely fantastic. We had a few miles left in our 178 mile trip to the hotel but we knew we were going to stop off at this particular location to pick up some dinner before we arrived at the hotel.

Do your stomach a favor, stop in and buy anything, you will be amazed. Did I mention the staff is great?

Many blessings to y’all,
Pastor Michael Rodriguez

“Delicious food and fabulous desserts!!!!“

“Review update **** I went back in since I had my family in town and I was super excited about showing them this pizza place since it's just a small walk away . There was a young aged asian girl who attended us . She was not very friendly from start to finish. She answered questions with an attitude, never smiled . Overall it was some of the most unfriendly awkward service I've ever experienced, just a bummer my parents had to experience it too on their first visit .pizza was still great though

Moved around the corner and started stopping by here with my girls during the last two months. We absolutely adore the people we've encountered ! The pizza is great and the beer ..staff is friendly as can be“

Vegetarian options: Breadsticks, salads, cheese pizza, vegetarian pizza, and more.

Kid-friendliness: It's outdoors with birds singing and plants, trees, and flowers all around them.“

“just had very good pepperoni pie and fried mozzarella. Definitely recommend in this area.“

“This place has been a staple since I was a kid. And that was a long time ago… You can consistently count on an affordable good meal. One thing I didn’t like was the alarm that goes off every time the front door opens. I understand that it probably comes as a result of times where employees don’t quickly get to the front. It just kind of makes it seem like they’re being summoned like a butler.. they’re people doing a job.. but ok.. The job that they did do was very well done“

“Great food! Sandwiches are fantastic! Lived in Oceanside for 25 years been eating here as long as I can recall. live in Orange county now and drive 104 miles round trip for a Sandwich, that's how good they are! 😀“
