Absolutely wonderful! I can't wait to return and enjoy the special swordfish dish again. Thank you so much. Our party of 5 loved it and we'll be back!

Delizie's is one of our absolute favorite restaurants. It has become our own dining room in many respects knowing all of the servers, bartenders and workers of the restaurant as well as knowing all of our favorites (many, many of them). And just when you think you know you are going to have your favorite as you walked in.....BAM !!!!!, you are hit with the news of the specials and everything changes for the better. This is a beautiful place to dine. Never rushed. Always outstanding food and service. Joyful staff as well as patrons. We just love this restaurant.

The food was delicious, and we will definitely go back for dinner. The service was outstanding from the host to the waiter. This is a wonderful restaurant in Mission Viejo!

The service at this restaurant is excellent. Our waiter was very nice and we felt quite welcoming. We ordered shrimp pastas, mine was regular and my friend's was gluten free. We are glad that gluten free pasta is available. We will definitely come back again.

This is my local neighborhood Italian place and our "go to" restaurant for family occasions. The food is always excellent and the staff take great care of us. Full bar and a good wine list help make all occasions special. Also a great place for date night.

Great food, great service, excellent ambiance. Love the white table cloths. This place does not disappoint.

Best friends took me here for my birthday, and we recently went back for milestone celebrations, bartenders and servers are very sweet, attentive, and help the patrons feel special during their celebrations. Great appetizer, entree, dessert, and drink options....

This was our first visit to Delizie, but won’t be our last. Ambience gives you neighborhood Italian spot vibes. Low lighting, bustle of servers attending to patrons, sounds of forks on plates and convos. We were seated in a little back room (no reservation). We started out with calamarie - my hubs preferred the marinara dip, but I loved the lemon aioli. Mains- we ordered the special- lamb shank over mushroom risotto - this was made to absolute perfection 🤌🏼. 18 hour slow cook makes it ultra tender, yet still on the bone atop delicious risotto- also not runny or dry, but creamy and delicious. The sauce over the lamb was rich and velvety. This is a hearty dish without leaving you feeling regretful. Okay, on to my dish… I went with server, Raul’s recommendation of the chicken picata. (I’ll share that I rarely order chicken when dining out, since that’s what I can make at home). The chicken picata didn’t disappoint. It was pounded to tender perfection, moist and flavorful (for breast). This is a lemon forward dish, which I love. Capers and a demi glaze to dress the chicken and roasted veggies as the side. Solid dish, but we will be back to explore more mains/specials. Desert- warm banana bread with chocolate gelato - interesting for a desert, but moist, delicious and chocolate gelato was a dark, rich treat. I had the pumpkin cheesecake. It wasn’t super pumpkin-y, but ate like a fall cheesecake- flavors of pumpkin pie spice. Both good Fall 🍁 deserts. They make all their deserts in house (except cookie and gelato), and it shows care and craft.
I’d be remissed if I didn’t share that the service was perfection, maybe even better than the meal. Raul was what every owner should endeavor to hire- he knew and shared over six specials in detail, from every ingredient to how each dish is prepared. He was attentive and knowledgeable, focusing on our experience, and answered questions while making recommendations. Also, the support staff were on it with water refills, and food served quickly (not sure how they did that). Exceptional experience that demonstrated care and team work. Thank you. We’re excited for our next visit!
PS- loved that red blend from Mexico 🍷 please keep it.

Our family just loves this place. They are always so accommodating and kind, the service is unbelievable. Thank you for treating us like family! WE LOVE YOU!

We had a beautiful meal and noise level has gone way down due to new elements on ceiling. The service was impeccable. Attentive but didn't rush us. I tried the spinach salad with added shrimp for first time as wanted something lighter. It was amazing with warm vinegar dressing. The salmon special was also excellent. Without asking our waiter brought out a tiramisu to share as noticed we were celebrating a birthday. This was probably the best tiramisu I've ever had including those in Italy!
