50 Best Italian Restaurants near La Verne

“This is an italian, european style restaurant that is easy to access from the free-parking lot across the street. It is small so if you're sitting for more than 4 people I would recommend making a reservation.

Starting with service, the waitress was quite attentive to our table. Her timing every check up was decent, not over-asking how we're doing.

I actually liked their menus which were clean, easy to read, though felt like holding a book lol.

When it comes to the food, it was somewhat difficult deciding what my final thoughts were. We ordered calamari, flat bread, meatballs, and charcuterie board. The flat bread was the best thing there. The tomatoes is what really gives it a nice flavor. The charcuterie board of course is just a small selection of cheese, deli meat, and fruit. The calamari was not that great. The squid was a thin cut and overwhelmed by the crust. Additionally, the meatballs were quite bland by not being seasoned enough.

On to the entrees. My sister ordered their tortellini pasta with scallops which was really great. The pesto tasted quite nice and stuck to the pasta really well. I ordered their lasagna with bolognese. The bolognese has a umami taste which would pair well with red wines. The lasagna was coated in a lot of cheese which I loved. Can never have too much cheese. I regret not having any dessert as my impression might have changed a little more.

Looking at the pricing and quality of our food, I can say that I've had better for less. I would consider returning here only if I wanted to impress a girl“

“great place to eat. Place been there for 30 years. a must go!!“

“Best Pizza ANYWHERE!! And the bread sticks with cheese and Roland sauce are a major plus!!! We make a stop in to see if the mistro of pies Joey is in, whenever we are in town, and are never disappointed!! The imported sausage and perfectly cooked crust are amazing!“

“Even though it's a small shop, the service and food are excellent“

“The food was delicious, service was outstanding. Will definitely be back!!!“

“Food here is phenomenal. Owner is actually from Italy. Service always friendly. It’s a small bistro with 3 tables inside and 2 in front, plus some general seating for the Shoppes out front. They also do catering; my group thoroughly enjoyed the food.“

“Best French onion soup! And most delicious fresh bread to dip! Can't wait to try more items from their menu“

“Great food and great service! What more can you ask for!“

“amazing doesn't even describe my Garlic Knots and Spaghetti Caprese. loads of fresh mozzarella, tomatoes, and fresh basil. The price was also amazing. wish this was vloser to home!“

“Great food and service, worth the drive.“

“If you crave Italian food with a slight California twist, look no further. The carrots were our favorite appetizer, slightly spicy and extremely flavorful with the tahini, tajin and pine nuts. The pistachio pesto rigatoni was also a standout. If you are comfortable paying slighly more for higher quality food you wont be disappointed. My wife and I will certainly be visiting again.“

“Super friendly owner and chef Great Italian Food Give it a try this holiday season (take a break from cooking) 🤗“

“Food and Sevice was good!!“

“I've been eating at rizza pizza since I was 10 I'm 35 and the chubby stick will never get old to me I love this place and I always will they still recognize me anytime I come no matter how much time I'm away since 10 years old.“

“Pastaphony serves up a seriously delicious Chicken Pasta Alfredo that hits all the right comfort food notes. The sauce is velvety and rich, and the chicken is perfectly tender and savory. It's just a tiny bit heavy on the cream, making it a pretty intense dish to finish solo, but the overall flavor profile is fantastic. Definitely a spot worth checking out when you're craving a solid plate of pasta!“

“I've been a Vince's customer all my 70 years. Not your typical Italian restaurant, just a spaghetti house, although the menu has been expanded recently to include lasagna. Always good, family friendly, just don't get hungry for spaghetti on Wednesday. To my knowledge they've never been open on Wednesday.“

“Thank you CCCV lion tamers and NY pizzeria for accommodating us delicious hot cheesy pizza 🍕“

“their hot subs are great... my wife loves the French bread they are made with. you can't get any fresher pasta...love watching it as it is being made. my go to sandwich 🥪 is the meatball with provolone. it's worth the drive from Rancho Cucamonga when you are looking for a quality product using fresh ingredients“

“Great dining experience. We ordered the Lasagna and Pizza. The food excellent and came out hot. The owner and staff are very friendly. The restaurant is comfortable and every time my family eats here, we have a great dining experience. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“The food taste bland, needs seasoning. The pomodoro tastes metallic, like it was made with cheap canned tomatoes. And for those high prices, not acceptable. The back patio was infested with flies, we couldn't eat trying to swat them off our dishes. It's gone downbin quality andvup in prices. 1 star rating, the health department needs to be called for indpection.“

“We always order Olive Garden to go. It saves us a lot of money, and we don't have to deal with restaurant wait times, tipping, or waiting for drink refills. Our orders are consistently ready on time for pickup, and they never have a problem including extra breadsticks, salad dressing, or other condiments when we ask. The food is hot, accurate, and convenient every time. For our family, takeout is the best way to enjoy Olive Garden.“

“best wings so far, and we had the potatoes wedges they were good. and their Ranch is very creamy and good“

I destroyed that pizza before I even got home!“

“Claro's is my new go to sandwich shop, fantastic sandwiches at fair prices. My usual is their new sandwich which is the hot bobby. Which is essentially a hot pastrami sandwich. I also highly recommend their desserts. The personal sized banana cream pie is my delectable of choice. Wholeheartedly recommend.“

“Good food and exceptional service.“

“The pizza is really good and it is a nice affordable price!
You can get a personal pizza lunch special for 6.99$ that is filling and comes with a drink. Also they have a walk in deal for a large one topping pizza. I suggest walking in to order :) 10/10 my new favorite pizza spot!“

“Their service was excellent. it was quick service, with hot pizza and cold crisp salad. The ranch tasted homemade. The pizza was not greasy like most pizzas. The crust was lite and fluffy. It had a crisp cheesy flavor. The dough was perfect. The look of the pizza is appealing. Overall a 5 star rating.“

“good quality good price especially, the owner's sincere attitude to do provide better service. Moved my mind. The best, the top.“
