This is an amazing authentic Italian for Italians restaurant. Delightful dishes of delicate house made pastas and other dishes. They specialize in truffles. Beautiful wines and the service is always perfect, welcoming and friendly. We love it here.

Good food, the prices were a little high, the portions for an Italian restaurant were on the small size but filling.

I went there with a girlfriend and she's gluten free so she ordered the truffle risotto which was amazing and I ordered the lasagna which was a bit underwhelming, but still good. Wouldn't get the truffle fries again ($17), as it was an Italian restaurant and was hoping it would taste more truffle-y. We also ordered a glass of wine. I ordered the Malbec and she initially ordered a Pinot noir which the waitress highly suggested and then sent it back because it didn't taste like wine. Pricing was a bit high for what we got. The decor is was interesting and location was close to freeway entrance so it was a bit noisy. Overall it was enjoyable and I would consider going back again if not just for the truffle.

First the owners are amazing. Tje food is so so so good. I usually dont like Italian food but this authentic Italian restuarant made me a lover of Italian. Dont go there asking for Mac and Cheese. Service and food 10 stars if I could.

This is the cutest little spot in the most unexpected plaza. Everything feels extremely authentic. The waitstaff is kind and efficient. We ordered off the black truffle menu which was $98 per person for four courses. Everything was delicious and perfectly portioned. Would definitely come again and recommend to a friend.

Excellent food! My compliments to the chef. It is definitely a true Italy experience with a twist of modern cuisine. If you like Mac & cheese or your traditional fettuccine Alfredo this is not the place for you. Come on over and experience the food for yourself.

? Safety: staff wear masks, everyone is seated at a great distance from each other. Sitting is only outside on a nice patio with a roof.? Food: AMAZING. It was so delicious!!! don't forget to leave some space for dessert. Tiramisu and panna cotta were just so good.?Booze: haven't ordered any this time, but they have good choice in their list.?️ Interior: it's cozy and an owner is very nice and welcoming

This place is located in the most unassuming location, I couldn't believe how close it was to our home. We ordered the bruschetta as an appetizer, and then the butternut squash ravioli and the saffron lobster ravioli. Something to note: food is delicious but very very small portions which had us feeling that it was a bit overpriced for what it was. Personally we loved the butternut squash ravioli with sage butter sauce the best and for dessert had a pistachio cake and cannolis. The pistachio cake was a personal favorite.

Sooo good!!! All around. Food, service, atmosphere, even music was bomb. Gathered here with two other friends to catchup on life. It was a stressful day and casa Modena ended it so it could be so much better. Super romantic and cozy inside. I love it. And the food delicious. We got appetizers wine pasta and a dessert . All really good. Happy to have tried something new and it went so well:)

Wow...what a find. Homemade pastas...and amazing sauces to compliment. Definitely try the tortellini And the tagliatelle And the pumpkin ravioli I can't wait to go back to try more. They are known for their truffle menu...pricey, but the Yelp pictures look amazing. That's what I'm going back for. Very easy outdoor dining...we were able to sit in our own section of the restaurant, easily 12 feet from the next party (though, there was an empty table in between). Very cute eclectic decor. Highly recommend trying this restaurant.

Real, fresh and delicious Italian food from the Modena region. No meatballs, no garlic bread and no pizza. This is a high end restaurant and the food is amazing. Service is always friendly and the restaurant space is unique and very interesting in it's own right, like a shrine to Italian cuisine and culture.

My boyfriend and I regularly come to this restaurant for date nights. The owners are amazing! Very passionate about their food, and they are always willing to help with wine recommendations (which is great because my boyfriend and I are clueless when it comes to wine). The pastas are the best on the menu.

I came here with my Mom and boyfriend for my birthday. I had pasta with truffle and our server Nico gave me more truffles than I could possibly eat! They import 70 pounds of truffle a week. The food was amazing and we were stuffed. I highly recommend coming to this restaurant, now they also have indoor and outdoor seating. 10 out of 10!

Dinela meal was not worth the price. Friendly staff and chef but would not order again.
