Our food was set up on one table…buffet style…and we had plenty of tables to sit and eat. Highly recommend Melo’s pizza and pasta in Danville!“

“Perfect birthday dinner thank you!!! Service excellent and food off the hook.. I’ve been trying to find a fish pizza forever and your Nrw Haven Clam with bacon was delicious!!!! And my birthday New York cheese cake omg!!! Thank you“

“Always enjoy the nights we can make it to dinner here. The staff is friendly and as long time patrons, we know many of the staff. Food is always excellent, fresh and hot. This visit nothing caught my interest on the specials so I was able to try a regular menu item I had not tried before. The pork cutlet, very well prepared and and the side of pasta and vegetables never disappoints.“

“Great food, nice staff and Chianti says it all! Oh they have pizza yet you should not hold the image of pizzeria / pizza parlor that leans to the slice o’pie on the east coast. This is nice dining!“

“Just a wonderful local resturant. Owner is always warm and welcoming. Food is always wonderful. Fantastic atmosphere.“

“Had lunch before play at the Lesher Center ( 10% discount if you show your ticket ). This visit tried the Casabertone pinsa. Crust perfect, lovely cheese & guanciale. Also shared the porchetta appetizer. Very good, but we couldn't finish it... enough pork for 4 people. Cappuccino also very good... nice coffee without any bitterness. My favorite pinsa is the Montesacro; I request the chili oil on the side so I can control the level of heat.“

“Wonderful staff, food is fresh and delicious. Consistent quality and warmth of environment. - Don Dikun“

“What a beautiful place. Angela went above & beyond to squeeze in 3 of us to see a great band, Grooveline. The food was outstanding and the drinks had a punch. Our server Barbara was amazing. The place was packed & she was really running all night yet had a fun, pleasant attitude. Everyone danced all night. Such a great vibe. I would definitely go again. I'll follow your FB page for the band calendar. Thank you again Angela!!“

“We had very good starters and entrees, as well as delicious desserts. The service was very attentive. Only minor complaint was that the piano playing while good was almost too loud to have conversations. Less amplification of the music would make dining a more pleasant experience.“

“Great ambiance, service, and cuisine!“

“We went to a baby shower last Saturday. We sat outside which was lovely. The service and food is ALWAYS so good! They do not skimp on their portions! We have been coming here since 1985. Thanks Tony, you know how to do it right!“

“Recently enjoyed a fabulous dinner at Postino's The food was wonderful, and the service excellent. It was a perfect al fresco dining experience“

“Great for large groups and families.“

“Excellent food, and the patio dining offered perfect weather. Plenty of excellent wines available to accompany the meal. And the staff- wonderful as always“

“I'm from the East Coast. I grew up there. Pancoast not only delivers great NY style pizza, they also have the wonderful sociable vibe of the east coast where you feel like you're family when you go there. Such good peeps...Nick and Sophie and the whole bunch.“

“It's kinda pricy but I have to say, I'm at least never disappointed with the main entrees. Bread isn't bad and if you dine in, you have access to more bread. They have a soda fountain as well. I'm not particularly impressed by the dessert plus there's several other really good dessert places nearby.

The service is pretty quick and the staff is super friendly. I have no issues here.

The restaurant is a good size, decent space between tables so it never feels too crowded, even when it's filled with customers. Nice big windows so it feels open but there's also outdoor seating. The space is generally clean, including the bathrooms.

My issue with this area (which isn't the restaurant's fault) is the parking. It's a very popular area so fighting for parking is pretty normal.

Overall, I really like this place. If my family and I need a quick Italian fix, it's our go-to!“

“Took my friend here for a Mother’s Day lunch. She was feeling blue because her kids didn’t show up. Panini’s was the closest and most convenient since I had to go back to work. I hoped it wouldn’t disappoint and it didn’t. She had a turkey avocado and she said it was just right. The service was spot on&she cheered up a bit. Thanks for that Panini crew.“

“This restaurant is no doubt one of the most attractive place in the region. Anytime I visit this place I am so glad. They always keep their high standard service and the highest level of food they offer. You definitely will enjoy this this restaurant. Highly recommended.“

“Quaint little restaurant with a nice vibe. Second time here, good food both times. Nice wine list. Gets very busy on weekends.
A little outdoor seating available on porch.

Waiter was friendly, but not very attentive. Lots of customers and regulars to tend to it appeared.

Good place for date night or getting together with friends. Nice ambiance.“

“Excellent dining experience. Top notch food as well as a wonderful staff. Great ambiance too!“

“So good tried a classic & a square pizza Recommendation from our Genna server. Definitely be back soon.“

“Just came back from a weekend in Manhattan where we had the best Italian dinner ever (Carmine's). Their chicken parmesan was so good. Since my daughter's favorite food is anything Italian, we thought we'd try the local restaurant. They had chicken parmesan on the menu so I thought I'd try it. Wasnt expecting much because I was spoiled by Carmines. It was good... not as big a portion but plenty ... the chicken was pounded flat, lightly battered, and covered with parmesan. And the sauce on the penne was really good. A great surprise. And even the appetizer, the calamari was fresh, on a salad with capers ... really good. great local find“

“I usually come here for sandwiches, however this time I came for the quick dinners. Lucca's has a few refrigerators full of different dishes. I bought the meat ravioli, lasagna, tortellini, etc The meat ravioli was delicious enough for two and it heats up within minutes. The prices are affordable and it great for folks that don't want to cook.“

“great food, great prices, great service. relaxed atmosphere. Been going there for as few years now & never had a bad meal.“

“I absolutely love this pizza joint. Their pizzas are amazing! My wife and I usually order a pepperoni, or their veggie garden pizza; it's perfection, every time. To boot, over the phone or in person, their staff have always been kind to me and my family.“

“My husband and I were driving around looking for a place to eat when we saw Pasta Primavera on the side of the road and we are so glad we decided to stop! From the moment we walked in, it felt like fine-dining service in a comfortable, casual atmosphere. Our server was amazing, attentive, and really made the experience feel special.

The food was delicious. I ordered the cheese tortellini with mushrooms, pancetta, and peas. It was creamy, flavorful, and very satisfying. Not the best pasta I’ve ever had in my life, but definitely tasty and well prepared. My husband had the jambalaya, which was served over pasta instead of rice. It was a really unique and unexpected twist blending Italian and Cajun flavors together, and it worked!

The Caesar salad was authentic (none of the overly creamy white dressing you usually see!), and the crème brûlée was the perfect sweet finish to an impromptu dinner out.

Overall, we left happy, full, and already talking about coming back. Highly recommend giving this place a try! 🍝✨“

“Really great pizza 🍕 the best“

“Food is Delicious! Atmosphere is very nice and friendly! Try the Lemon Cake!!!!! This Place is everything you want in a Family Style Pizzeria!“

“So good and very pleasant stuff!!“

“all I can say is wow!! the best Italian food I e ever ate!! and they were kind enough to add a half a loaf of bread and a extra slice of pizza to my order I definitely recommend this wonderful place when your around town , thank you for your food !!!“

“Walk in & you will know! Food is delicious“

“The food was incredible. I wanted to order almost everything on the menu. So will have to come back at least couple more times to try everything to look good and we couldn’t order in one night. Our old fashion cocktail and blackberry Mojito were perfect. And I can’t say enough about considerate, professional service.“

“Tuna Antipasta Artichoke Torta Hot meatballs and sausage in sauce Pork & Beef Enchiladas Choc. Chip Canoli’s“

“Charles was great! We will be back.“

“Some of the best pizza in the bay area. Excellent sauce. The dough, cheese sauce, balance is really good. They also have specials where they introduced different types of pizza that are not common to your typical American consumers. Some of the best pizza I have ever had.“

“My husband and I were craving pizza. However, the places here in Castro Valley have been disappointing recently. We decided to give Villa Roma a try and see how we liked it. We loved it! We ordered a custom pizza and garden salad. Both were delicious. The garden salad was fresh, flavorful, and filled with a scrumptious variety of vegetables. We will be going back soon.“

“Had a great meal, Chicken Parm was on point! Kid had Shrimp Pomodoro and loved it! The Peach hard lemonade was delicious!!“

“Decent Buffalo wings. Can order ahead for takeout.“

“Great Lunch Menu Specials!!!“

“They are lucky that the pizza is unquestionably the best, because the wait times are always long, nobody answers the phones, and the online ordering doesnt work unless you use a 3rd party application that upcharges 10% for your convenience.

I hope they bolster their staff on Saturdays in the future.“

“10 stars! The best sandwiches in all of CC County are made here! The staff is very friendly and upbeat- you can tell the crew absolutely love their jobs and! the "decor" in the shop is pretty great! The sandwiches are pretty pricey, but absolutely worth the cost!Oh! And meatball parm.“
