“Nice clean store and food was delicious. The girl at the front was so friendly and answered me questions about the menu. I ended up getting the lasagna garlic bread salad combo and it was so good and for less than $15! I ate the garlic bread first cuz it was so good that's why it's not in the picture LOL.“

It has a great menu mixed with Meat and Veggie options. The Mrs. and I split and highly recommend the Captain Carl and the Meatless Mike (I concur "best vegan meatball in America", and Our 3 y/o gives the grilled cheese 👍👍. Our 9y/o swears it was the best grilled cheese she ever had.“

The owner was really nice, and we ended it with a tiramisu for dessert. Part of me wants to gatekeep this place, but I can’t help telling all my friends about it. 10/10 🍝“

“We went to the coolest little Italian place in the valley for Valentine's on a total whim. The entire place was themed, they had a fun violinist, the wait staff wore Valentine's glasses & vests, they had pink and red lights on the palm trees out front, heart shaped straws... it was so quirky and fun. Service was awesome, like the staff was actually having a good time and glad we were there. The food was AWESOME quality... everything homemade down to the freshly baked heart shaped bread. I don't recall if we've ever really 'celebrated' Valentine's day but going to this restaurant made it feel like an actual holiday. So fun and cute. Also, the prices & portions! Highly recommend to check this place out. Guessing they probably do other holidays as well. Grateful for an unexpected awesome night 🥰🤗“

“This place is a jem!
The Caesar Salad was delicious- the crunch of the panko bread crumbs and lettuce was so satisfying.
We ate the whole thing.
My chicken Marsala and my finances pasta were so good!
We ate the whole thing.
Then, we had the Limoncello Marscapone cake, which was the perfect taste combo of citrus and sweet cream.
We ate the whole thing.
So glad this is in our neighborhood.
And our server, Justin, was the best.“

“Wonderful! Beautiful setting!Relaxing atmosphere! Great service!“

“5 stars sorpresa meraviglioso ristorante, my first time here and i love It Good ambiance excellent food very cozy. buon appetito.“

“When my husband and I arrived we checked in an there was an hour waiting time. We still chose to wait around patiently. We finally got called to our seats, the waitress was very friendly and explain the menu. It is hard to read the menu because the lights are super deemed. We use our phone light in order to be able to read the menu items. Overall I enjoyed my husband's company & the pasta was delicious.“

“Service was friendly and efficient. Wasn’t too busy for a Tuesday night. We were a large group of business travelers and the servers were always very helpful. Food was good, not mind blowing, but our large group of 10+ collectively agreed this was a nice find and a good meal.“

“Absolutely fantastic for date night or literally any other dining event you might have!!!! Food was incredible especially the glazed pork belly and the brussel sprouts. AND dessert is an absolute must, everyone needs to try the bread pudding! Good price point for the quality of food and the cutest Mediterranean inspired design.“

“excelent food and very friendly family. love this restaurant. one of my italian favorites Restaurant.“

“Quality ingredients and exceptional service with consistency make this a great experience for every visit. There is something for everyone on the menu. The place is approachable, the people are friendly, and the food is delicious and fairly priced.“

“In 2015, I visited Casa de Pizza and I recall the atmosphere was lively, busy and had live music. At the time it was very dark and dimly lit. The food was bomb. 10 years later I had the pleasure of visiting this place again in 2026. The food continues to be high quality and delicious. The customer service was great! I enjoyed how it had good lighting (not too bright but bright enough to see your food) and light music playing in the background. You can also watch sports events there. I truly appreciate this place!“

“Awesome dinner and dessert 🍨“

“Absolutely amazing restaurant
Started out with appetizer little pieces of bread with seasoning and the marinara sauce you can tell was absolutely homemade delicious
The olive oil oil was and bread matched that of the quality of Italy
the Branzino fish dish was absolutely amazing. The vegetables were crisp and fresh. The carrots were delicious.
My family ordered the medallion steaks were also exceptional
The chicken dish and the seafood pasta was also as good as the rest of the dishes

For dessert, the tiramisu and the tart with vanilla ice cream and the dark chocolate tropics were to die for

Would highly recommend this place if you’re interested in a totally authentic experience that matches the quality of the best restaurants in all of Italy“

“We had wonderful food and service. I had the gnocchi with meat sauce. Absolutely delicious.“

“Food is always good here and service as well. I love the endless soup with their meals. Lunch time is a great bargain. Wish they'd have have the option of the sandwiches coming on Italian bread than just all on the bread sticks but they are still pretty good for the price. I go for the meatball sand because it's a cheaper bargain price and I thought it was much better tasting than the chicken sandwich which was about the same as you'd get at Burger King. My wife and I come to Olive Garden mostly when they have the GET ONE TAKE ONE HOME DEAL. Can't beat that. The only reason I don't give this place 5 stars is because all their chicken is not that good and is the same yuck kind you can get at any fast food joint. The meatballs are great. But then if you want to add them to you spaghetti dinner, they charge an extra $3 for 3 meatballs or sausage even. Then that makes spaghetti & meatballs come to about $16 and that is overpriced imo. On some visits the spaghetti sauce is caked with thick tomato slices in it and no other options because it's all made that day. Some days the sauce is more meaty and then the next visit tons of too much tomato slices and it's all watery. Also, being a bigger guy, almost every time we've been here, it's been a bit embarrassing being seated at booths that don't fit me and then having to move and I think the host or hostess should know better and know their tables. Otherwise this is a place we go to for lunch and only for dinner when they have the buy one take one home deal.“

“Been going to this restaurant for years. The food has always been good, particularly the pizza.“

“We have been coming here for many years and love it. Today was my father-in-laws 92nd birthday and he is not in great health but wanted Fabrocini’s. I called and they were so kind and accommodating, delivering birthday dinner for six at our door! The food was delicious and he was so happy!!! Thanks to the entire staff for making his day great and the years of great memories!👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

“We had dinner last night at Trattoria to celebrate my little daughter’s birthday, and it was such a beautiful experience. Even though the restaurant was busy, the manager truly went above and beyond to make sure my daughter felt special on her big day.

He took the time to check on us, made her feel important, and added such a personal touch to the evening. It meant so much to us as parents to see her so happy and excited.

The food was delicious, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the service was wonderful. Thank you for making my daughter’s birthday so memorable. We will definitely be back!“

“Good food … we go there a lot … garlic bread, Italian food. I love the turkey and provolone salad.“

“Delicious food, I enjoyed myself there and the spaghetti was great just like expected 🧡“

“I’m big fan of wood fire Pizza. Finally a halal spot. MashaAllah pizza is amazing. I love the crust. And the pizzas are light, so we got a couple options for me and my family.“

“Excellent service and delectable food! Grace and Roberto made a great team, attentive and timely. Nice big menu kept the whole family satisfied. My parents were staying at the hotel that this wonderful restaurant is attached to so we visited them for this meal but I’m local and will be back here even if I’m not visiting anyone staying at the hotel.“

“Good food - great service“

“Love the service here. The guy and lady that work the lunch shift are always super nice and have great service. They are very accommodating and friendly. Great people here. Above average for a grocery store. Would 100% recommend. Chicken aioli is bomb“

“So happy to have tried Sugo! I only dipped my toes into the flavor pool ordering only the French Fries and the Meatballs and sauce! Having had an Italian Chef for a Father, I grew up being able to tell good Italian flavors from a simple dish like Meatballs and Sauce (gravy)! Both were excellent from Sugo! Hot from heat, great texture and fine flavors and plenty of food! I'm looking forward to delving deeply into the menu next time! The rest of the family dinner was a hit with everyone too! Great food for the price! I highly recommend Sugo!“

“NYC cheese slices are my jam, and we have an embarrassment of riches in Sherman Oaks. Within a mile of each other, there are three, count 'em three, authentic NY slice shops. My son and I visited all three of them on a self-guided cheese slice tour of Sherman Oaks. Pizza Wagon was stop three on the tour!

The atmosphere is good...NY decor on the walls in what feels like a truly neighborhood / not-chain space. The service was great too...the staff worked quickly and were abundantly friendly and helpful.

They do a good job with authentic style slices...the right amount of crisp on the crust and a good ratio of sauce versus cheese. The chew was good, though both the crust and sauce don't quite have the superior flavor profile of the nearby places.

It's definitely a good alternative to those, though, and miles ahead of the major chain pizzas in terms of NY style.“

“5 Stars ⭐️ Amazing food but even better service!!! Just fantastic!! Highly recommend!!!“

“I had a wonderful experience here. The service was attentive and welcoming from the moment we arrived. The atmosphere is warm, and very comfortable, making it a perfect place to relax and enjoy. Food was absolutely delicious, every dish was beautifully presented and full of flavor. I truly enjoyed my time and look forward to coming back again.“

“La Cava has always been a great Italian restaurant, but even greater now. Armando, the owner, has completely remodeled the interior making it warm, cozy and inviting. The tables are spaced nicely and the whole decor is bright. The food is wonderful and the menu has expanded with many new dishes and the prices are great for any budget. Stop in and enjoy!!“

“Wonderful evening celebrating with friends. The truffle pasta was wonderful and the beet salad with fennel one of the best I’ve had. A wonderful evening.“

“Forget all the other pizza chains they compare nothing to the quality of LA pizza. I’ve been to LA for years and I’m always satisfied with the service and quality of the pizza. Junior is one of the best employees there. When you call whether it’s pick up or delivery, they always take care of you. On every occasion, always order with LA pizza“
