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!“

“Absolutely loved the food at Desi Pizza! The pizza was fresh, flavorful, and had the perfect blend of Indian and Italian flavors. The toppings were generous, the crust was delicious, and every bite was packed with flavor. The staff was also very friendly and welcoming. Definitely a great place to try if you’re looking for something different and delicious. Highly recommend“

“Seated right away. Nice quiet table. Comfortable. Very attentive waitress.
We ordered a Caprese salad as an appetizer to split 3 ways. EXCELLENT.
The main courses (pictured) were delish. Big fat prawns & scallops. The mushroom ravioli were plump and cooked just perfect with a delicious red sauce. The 3rd entree was linguini & clams. Just as tasty.
Reason for a 4 instead of 5...? Cocktail availability. The drinks are made with Soju instead of conventional alcohol. Good but lacking the usual flavor profile and not as much to choose from. Plus, with the less desirable drinks the cocktail prices were excessive @ $14 each. My Old Fashioned had a good flavor and I would have enjoyed a 2nd but two drinks were more than my entree so I had to decline. All in all it was a very pleasant evening and I have NO complaints on the food or service.“

“What a cool concept. Stumbled across this place on the 4th of July for an early lunch. My wife said she heard about it on instagram so we figured we’d give it a try. The guy working was super personable and helpful. Overall great ambiance and great price. Obviously it’s a holiday and it’s kinda dead inside but seems like a really cool place. The food was excellent! The Tommy is the one to get for sure!“

“For the first time in twenty or so years the dinner was a disappointment. The veal marsala was edible but bland and certainly not up to it's standard. The penne caprisio was flavored (??????) with a watery sauce yhat was best eaten with a spoon....the dish was returned and rebuilt with some moderate sauce that was not up to any standart....the lasagna was great“

“First time at the Sunrise Olive Garden. Food is always good especially my favorite the Shrimp Alfredo. But what impressed me the most was that the Chef came out and introduced herself and ask how was the meal. Very swanky!! Thank you Olive Garden..more restaurants should have their Chef's do the same..“

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

“Un espacio para descubrir opciones decorativas y hacer un lunch satisfactorio.“

“I have never tried this brand before. But when I went to Roundtable across the street and they made me stand there for ten minutes without being help, I came to Delish! They greeted me right away and were available to take my order. I told the girl it was my first time here and she handed me a menu so I could read better. The music in the lobby was just right and I didn’t mind waiting 20 minutes for my pizza. Thank you for your great customer service! I will continue to come back!“

“OK, I’m new to Roseville and I see they have a lot of reviews but the Bolognese with meatballs is my go to at most good Italian restaurants. This did not disappoint absolutely delicious. The Caesar salad with crisp and dressed perfectly. My wife, a connoisseur of linguine clam says it’s the best she’s ever had. Tin star“

“Outstanding authentic Italian cuisine“

“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!“

“Great pizza. Worth the money!“

“WE ARE SO BACK. The previous owners lost the special touch and quality that this place help for so long BUT NOW with new ownership everything is back to normal. Next cheesy bread in Sacramento area and all the pizzas are great. Live music on the weekends and ice cold beer. What more could you ask for. Great service, kind people. If I wasn’t so worried an out gaining a million pounds I’d eat here daily.“

“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.“

“The food was delicious, service was perfect and the ambiance was lovely. This place is always a great choice. 😊“

“Edit: I have never heard of Desi Pizza bites . My review was of pasquales pizza, which has apparently closed. We miss it very much. Im not sure how this new business took over their business profile.

My old review for Pasquales:
Great pizza, salads and mozzarella sticks!
I have been coming here for 20 years or more, and the food is still awesome!“

“Wonderful pizza, the crust was perfect.“

“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!!“

“Super clean store, the customer service was exceptional, the pizza was delicious and oh my God the cheese bread with the red sauce was fire sooooo good!
Everyone ate it so fast didn't even get to take a picture to post on here.“

“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! 🍕 🍕“

“"Joey doesn't share food." "pivot"“

“OMG, fast spot for quality and tasty pasta. Get the Cajun chicken pasta. Noodles and chicken were cooked up perfect. Portions were generous. Sauce stuck to the noodles nicely, and spiced to perfection. insane value for quality, taste, and convenience.“

“A great spot, really loved their spaghetti and of course the lamb chops were fantastic. And how can I forget the live music.“

“The last 4 times I've ordered pizza for the kids have been from Pizza Twist. This is a new favorite and my new go to for a quick pizza. The place is welcoming and the staff is pleasant. The pizza itself is amazing. Personally, I think this pizza is much better than Round Table Pizza or Mt. Mike's, for a more reasonable price.

Vegetarian options: You can have them build a pizza the way you like.

Kid-friendliness: What kid doesn't like a good pizza“

“❤⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We ordered the Family Meal from O’Connor’s to sample a bit of everything—1/2 lb Tri-Tip and Brisket, two half chickens, garlic mashed potatoes, tri-tip chili, garlic bread, and BBQ sauce—and everything was fantastic! The chicken had a flavorful dry rub, and the skin was perfectly crispy while the meat stayed incredibly juicy. The tri-tip was tender and packed with flavor, and the brisket had a rich, smoky taste that hit all the right notes. But the surprise standout? The tri-tip chili—absolutely outstanding! The garlic mashed potatoes were creamy and comforting, and that loaf of garlic bread didn’t stand a chance once we got started. Add in friendly, helpful service, and you've got a 5-star experience. We’ll definitely be back!“
