The food here was really good, like fancy restaurant quality. I think the owners need a nicer location and ambiance to match how great the food was! The patatas bravas and beet salad with goat cheese were both impressive to us. We will definitely be back, just wish it wasn’t so loud inside.

A wonderful restaurant. Overall outstanding food and service. Every dish was well crafted, and so tasty. We appreciated that the food was well plated and came out hot and freshly cooked. Nice wine selection.

I didn’t get the chance to try the food, because the customer service left a poor impression. Google Maps listed the restaurant as open until 8:30 PM, so I arrived at 7:30 PM. The lights were on, doors open, menus stacked by the entrance, and staff at the front. Thinking it might be a seat-yourself place, I grabbed a menu and went to sit down. At that point, an employee told me the restaurant was closed. There was no explanation or apology, just a very flat response. It was surprising and honestly disappointing. Having worked in customer service, I know how much a simple greeting or polite clarification can impact a guest’s experience. This interaction unfortunately left me with the impression that customers aren’t valued here, which makes me hesitant to return.

A wonderful gem of a restaurant in Fair Oaks Village. We were a group of 5 this evening, and 4 of us had the Cioppino special and 1 had Eggplant Parmesan, all were so flavorful.
Franco, the owner, came by our table to check on us. You can tell that he's really involved with all aspects of his restaurant and cares.
We will definitely be returning!

I had a very pleasant experience here on Friday night. I called ahead and asked if they could accommodate someone with Celiac disease, and they said yes, they would do their best to avoid cross-contamination. Even gluten free menu items can be unsafe for me because of my allergy, and the potential for cross-contamination in most restaurants. I had the chimichurri steak bites, patatas bravas and the almond cake for dessert. Everything was delicious!!! I hadn't seen my cousins in a few years and I was able to enjoy their company at this cute little restaurant, and everyone enjoyed their food. I thought the portion sizes for the tapas was generous, as sometimes tapas restaurants just give you a few bites of food on the plate, and this was not the case at Bodega Biondi. Everyone said the empanadas were exceptional (and I was sure jealous I couldn't try a bite, they looked gorgeous!). My almond cake had whip cream and fresh berries, and I had a nice glass of Malbec that I thought was pretty great for only $14. Thank you so much for accommodating me! Our server and the entire staff was very attentive. They refilled our water several times without us asking, and that's really important when it's 102 outside. I will absolutely return to eat here again!
