“The old-fashioned are so good and the brunch menu never disappoints❤“

“the food and atmosphere were delicious and spectacular.“

“Awesome music venue ! Food was really great!“

“This place has amazing customer service, and the staff are very professional. The prices are also quite affordable, especially since they include a free salad and a breadstick. That said, I found the spaghetti lacking in flavor and a bit tasteless, though the salad was quite good. I’m giving it 4 stars mainly because of the excellent customer service—otherwise, the taste doesn’t really suit me.“

“Excellent food and excellent service. Highly recommend!“

“Our server, Jeffrey was excellent and very informative! The busboy was very attentive. And cleared plates and refilled water often! Always patrolling and on the lookout! My pasta campagnia & my husbands veal,parmigiana were excellent! We also ordered a small pizza (to go) but had to have one slice! Great pizza! Then pumpkin gelato to share & finish our meal! Brought leftovers of each one home! So much food, so much goodness!“

“As always, Olive Garden provided good food and lots of it for fair prices. Marissa, our server, was attentive and pleasant. The calamari appetizer, although a bit overdone, was plentiful with enough to take home. The seafood Alfredo was creamy and loaded with tender shrimp and scallops. The carbonara was delicious with shrimp and chicken. And the black tie mousse cake was luscious. We had enough left over for 2 more meals at home.“

“My husband has played live music here the past two Wednesdays service was great I loved the spaghetti!! He had the lamb chops and said they were fantastic!! Can’t wait to go back !!“

“The food was excellent and our server was awesome!

However, the gentleman who works at the front counter and the woman who sat us didn't seem like they were having a good evening. No, hello or how are you even after I asked them how they were doing. It almost made you feel as if you were a nuisance/annoyed they had to deal with speaking to you therefore it didn't feel welcoming at all. We were seated quickly as it was around 7pm on a Saturday and not overly busy.

Our server changed that non welcoming feeling. She immediately greeted us with a smile and was very friendly and helpful. I really wish I remembered her name but I hadn't planned on leaving a review until I got a yelp notification asking me to do so.

We will definitely be back because of the service she provided and all 3 of us in our party enjoyed our food. If the food hadn't been good and our server had been like the first two employees, we wouldn't be open to dining here again, so both of those things saved our experience.

I forgot how large the portions and the leftovers were nice to take home and enjoy the next day.“

“Absolutely wonderful… my family as well as myself enjoyed our meals“

“Outstanding authentic Italian cuisine“

“Our go-to restaurant for wonderful Italian food, great cocktails & wine and friendly staff. A true gem, Classy and comfortably elegant.“

“The pizza tasted amazing. Best I have had in a long time. It is a thinner crust with very good sauce. The service was also very fast. I also tried both desserts and they both tasted really good. The manager was nice enough to put on the France vs. Portugal soccer game for us! This place is a gem. Really recommend!“

“This is our go to place when we don’t feel like cooking. Love them and love their food.“

“The chicken breast with mushrooms sauce with the butter brown sauce pasta was to freaking die for...WOW!!!“

“Great food & beer. Friendly staff. Great vibe. Seasonal specials will keep us coming back but the pasta and pizza today were perfect!“

“It was a good choice to get pizza from Delish and special warm welcoming manager Ilona was cherry on top she was super fast and sweet. Good Pizza Good Service what else you want. I highly recommended

Vegetarian options: Epic veggie pizza“

“i heard from a little bird that 4 real italian men were going to open up a pizza express in town. Pizza is italian right. So why eat pizza from someone like Norway like me i will make you some grub and alot of potatoes. Leave the pizza to the experts. Well Valentines we had friends over and i thought pizza would be fun and a big salad.....wow wow wow Formaggio pizza is not like any in town. ITS REAL EVERYTHING THE SAUCE IS TO DIE FOR. If you want a treat anda mouth full of yummy try it. Love peggy“

“A group of 10 of us just went here for our work dinner & we all loved it! All the appetizers were good especially the Bruschetta. My main pasta course was great & I loved the lemon cake. So good! We just moved to Vernon Street & we will definitely be going back! Awesome having this on our new street. Also the service was really good! Rebecca did great keeping everything running smoothly. Very attentive for a really busy restaurant! Can’t wait to go back & try something else:) Highly recommend this place!“

“This is one of the best pizza places, probably in El Dorado county. I’ve been to quite a few pizza places, but not only the pizza but the customer service. Being greeted with a smile every time you go in the fast service it’s clean exterior and interior. And it is absolutely positively the best darn pizza and I’ve ever had ! Mind you I have tried the all meat, combination n the vegetarian. And all of the pieces I’ve had and next one I’m gonna get the Stromboli but every pizza I’ve had has been the most delicious well prepared Amazing tasteful lots of condiments on it. It’s just the best!! Once you’ve tasted, you can’t stop eating it. Try it you’ll Love it
Kudos to the owner!!“

“Absolutely TORE THIS PASTA UP ! Went there with my firefighter boyfriend and bestfriend and they got the Creamy Cajan Chicken and I got the Spaghetti Bolognese ??? The lady working there all by her self at 7pm and got us in and out within 15 minutes. GO HERE for some TASSSTYYYY pasta and $$$$ FRIENDLY ! lets not forget the SOFT and BUTTERY garlic bread ??“

“The amazing crew at CRP has went above and beyond what any customer could ever want or expect. Their food is phenomenal! There pizza crust is out of this world and don’t it even get me started about the wings.!!
This place is a must go see for yourself“

“Great food, great family and staff, and nice and clean location. We had the Italian boss sandwich on fresh sourdough trucked in from San Francisco that day.. unbelievably yummy! The cannolis are amazing, and the chicken parmigiana was delicious. Great prices too! Definitely recommend!!!“

“My all time favorite pizza place. Unfortunately I moved to the Bay Area when I was a teenager so I can only get it when I come over to Sacramento or driving through to auburn or Reno. The family meal is my jam, garlic chips, (also my all time favorite) Caesar salad, and pepperoni pizza. Every time. Been coming here for 36 years. Wish you guys would come over to the sf peninsula area!“

“Wonderful pizza, the crust was perfect.“

“I have been coming to Pasquale's since 1975 (original location by Safeway) and am still enjoying it at location #4...my picture is on the wall...from back then. Yesterday it was just the 3 of us tackling an XL pep/sausage and the sauce is even better than I remembered. We were there till closing time. So we took the party elsewhere. Another great time with the helpful staff.“

“Marco’s Pizza is one of my go-to spots when I’m craving a solid, no-fuss pizza. The crust is always just right—crispy on the edges, soft in the middle—and they don’t skimp on toppings, which I appreciate. Their pepperoni is next level, and the CheezyBread? Dangerous in the best way. It’s not gourmet, but it hits the spot every time. Ordering’s easy, delivery’s quick, and the food’s consistently good. Definitely a reliable choice when I just want comfort food that delivers.“

“His pie here is just as wonderful as it is when we go to the city and get it. So many different crusts and choices Tonys ( slice house) is a must! 🍕 🍕“

“Great pizza. Worth the money!“

“My husband and I often stopped to eat at Romano's Macaroni Grill when we're in the area. The food is always great and the staff is very friendly and thoughtful. Macaroni Grill is very kid friendly we see families often when we dine here. We recommend trying Macaroni Grill. I'm sure you will love it as we do.“

“this place need help cooking the pizza and offering refunds for poorly cooked food. having a manager on duty, not charging absorbent prices, not having kids run the store.“
