Lovely food and wonderful servers. A bit noisy inside so we ate outside in the sun. Very nice. Food was a gourmet delight.

Stopped in for lunch and had an enjoyable experience. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, perfect for a midday meal. Food was fresh, well-prepared, and flavorful without being heavy. Portions were just right for lunch, and service was friendly and efficient—a solid choice if you're looking for a casual Italian lunch in Half Moon Bay.

A very well-managed restaurant and thoroughly enjoyable experience. The staff is friendly, professional, and very accommodating. The food is a true delight. The ambiance is perfect. We have enjoyed dinner at Fattoria e Mare on several occasions. Consistently excellent.

Had a fantastic lunch even while they had a very large party in the other room. The minestrone soup was fantastic - full of beans and vegetables from nearby farms. It was so good we took it home. The focaccia was home made and delicious. Our pasta dishes were terrific. The espresso's were made perfectly and the freshest squeezed orange juice was worth it. We'll be back. The only feedback might be that staffing was light - mostly due to the large party. Everyone was friendly and helpful. Really enjoyed the meal.

Seated under a huge fan at high speed; turned down but then seated at another table and fan back on high--could still feel air. Cocktail and wine good. An amuse-bouche of lentils for the new year was a nice touch but a bit too much olive oil. Cheese plate came with mostardo as a solid glob; unable to spread and difficult to cut. No spoon/spreader for runny honey. Salad good. Cacio e pepe buccatini was a disappointment. Cooked pasta (no cooking water) added to a parmesan wheel (not pecorino) with whiskey but never created a sauce; so glob of pasta (at least it was al dente) with cheese bits served cold and ground pepper on top. Pork chop good. Cake (from price fixe menu) served cold. Good once came up to room temp.

Food was good, service was lacking. It was a slow Monday night. Only about 5 small groups, they put us all right next to each other when the restaurant was mostly empty. I understand not being by ourselves or putting people too far away from each other, but I had one couple right behind me and another squishing me on the side. I could literally count move my chair with out bumping someone. Our waitress disappeared for about 30 minutes after our appetizer was served, they hostess came over to take our order. I ordered the table side Bucatini cacio e pepe, it was so "crowded" she couldn't get the cart next to our table, and the pasta was cold once on my plate. Kind of silly for a very empty night. Oh well....

A lovely gem of a restaurant. We went on Christmas Eve and had a very nice experience. Service was attentive and the waitstaff gave us plenty of time to peruse the menu while they brought drinks and starters. We all enjoyed the food which was beautifully prepared and presented. The seafood and pasta dishes were exceptional. We have been before and we will return again.

We returned here to celebrate a birthday. It is a restaurant we always enjoy. The day before a call was made saying it was the birthday for one of us. We were told that a complimentary dessert with a candle would be served. We arrived at 4pm. We were only given the regular menus and later had to ask for the pris fixe menu. Our initial waiter was replaced by a second waiter and then for the last half of the meal, there was another wait staff person replacing waiter number 2. Our appetizers of calamari and onion rings were tender and delicious. The linguini and clams were good and had a very lemony sauce. The half chicken was delicious with the side of butternut squash. Following that, the check arrived. No mention of the birthday. Kind of disappointing. One member of the party talked to the manager who gave a card for a free appetizer at our next visit. Not sure when that will be.

Food was not great. Pasta sauce was watered down, fried calamari was covered with too much batter, 3 item lunch options limited(everything had added $), dessert options not great. Seafood did taste fresh. The food just was not tasty. Service was very good!
