I ordered the lasagne and was informed it would take longer to prepare. After 50 minutes I received a plate of lasagna and lots of green vegetables. The lasagne had spinach but no meat and I couldn’t find the bechamel sauce. If you are looking for layers of gooey cheese, sauce and pasta, you will be disappointed. We ordered a side of garlic bread that cost $8 that was hard to chew. My husband had the cavatelli with butternut squash sauce. It arrived with one small meatball and pasta tossed in something, but not really a sauce. He could not taste the butternut squash flavor. We were also charged $2 for tap water. What a disappointing meal.

A cute and quaint little restaurant! I sat at the bar and absolutely loved the vibe of this place, the bar top is gorgeous and hand crafted by the owner Victoria. The vibe of the restaurant is very intimate, very homey feeling. It only seats 18 so it's small but I really enjoy this type of atmosphere. This is my second time here and both times I thought the food was fabulous, very clearly fresh ingredients. I will certainly be back on my next visit!

Delicious and light Cesar salad and a divine eggplant parm with house made cashew cheese. Very accommodating menu - many items can be made vegan.

Loved this boutique Italian restaurant. Unique and delicious. Homemade pasta, homemade sauce and everything was cooked love. I had eggplant parmigian, polenta and vegetables.

This place holds a special place in our hearts. We stumbled across on a late night 5 years ago. All restaurants were closed except Mezzo. This place was so welcoming, service and ambiance intimate. Plus the food was so quality and tasted delicious. We returned just recently and was pleasantly surprised little had changed. Same quality, great service, ambiance and food was exquisite. Thanks Victoria for opening up to us 5 years ago and again recently. Look forward to coming back again.

Came here for a special night out to enjoy some good food. We each ordered appetizers and different pasta dishes. The appetizers were ok kinda. But the pasta dishes were so bland neither of us ate even half of it. And the cheesecake desert, i stopped after 2 bites. I dont know if it wasan off night or what but we will never go back. It was a total disappointment.

We wanted some quick take-out and always on the lookout for restaurants that provide healthy dishes and alternatives to meat/dairy. This place did not disappoint. We shared the eggplant parmesan and pasta with Q-balls (quinoa, beans, etc. My favorite!) with puttanesca sauce (it had just the right kick!). Also a house salad. It was perfect--lots of veggies, generous portions, inspired flavors and no need to hurt any cows. Lol. The chef seems to do it all herself and is obviously committed to providing this lucky little coastal town with some amazing and healthy food. Feel grateful we found her!

Personable waitress/chef/owner, but food is " flat" and considerably over priced. Portions are very small. Decor is eclectic. This restaurant is definitely not for families. Steamed broccoli was good.

We love sitting outside in the patio bar and ordering hot tea! The food is always delicious and the quality ingredients keep us coming back. Definitely a favorite restaurant of ours.Parking: Street parking is a non issue in such a small town as Cambria.

This tiny restaurant was pretty delicious! They had several vegetarian options which were great and the server was really nice. We shared the bruschetta and I had the chicken Parmesan. It was all delicious and freshly made. We shared the cannoli at the end of our meal. This little restaurant was great and I'd highly recommend it! It kind of gave me Twilight vibes

We had the most wonderful meal. The eggplant Parmesan and stuffed red pepper was so delicious. The owner "Victoria " and our waiter are very friendly and made us feel very welcome and we definitely have found our #1 restaurant in Cambria and looking forward to trying the lasagna next time....we kept looking at all the dishes coming out of the kitchen and everything looked yummy. Thank you for a wonderful dinner.

This tiny restaurant is a real gem, especially if you're a vegetarian. Only one chicken dish was available, nothing with beef. But it was delicious! Cute converted little house, good service.
