9 Best Italian Restaurants near Occidental

“Great food and lots of it. It’s all good but my favorite is minestrone. Filled with veggies in a wonderful tomato broth. I always get at least one quart to go to eat throughout the week. Don’t forget the cookies“

“Authentic Italian just like my grandma used to make 💗“

“We are locals and Dinuccis is one of our go to restaurants. Thirsty Thursday burger night is a great deal. If you want classic Italian come hungry. Everything is delicious.“

“This is probably the BEST Italian Restaurant I have ever attended. The food was superlative, service perfect and ambience lovely. I had the BEST LASAGNA I ever tasted, and the other 4 people at my table agreed that their meals were also superlative. Not inexpensive, but worth every penny. BRAVO!!!“

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about this place! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with such warmth and kindness — the staff truly go above and beyond to make you feel welcome. The food was absolutely outstanding. I ordered the lasagna, and it was easily one of the best I’ve ever had — perfectly layered, rich in flavor, and absolutely melt-in-your-mouth tender. You can really tell that the pasta is handmade fresh in-house — it had such an incredible texture and delicate taste that you just can’t find everywhere. Every bite was perfection. I will definitely be coming back and trying even more dishes. I highly recommend this place to anyone who loves authentic, high-quality Italian food. If you’re a pasta lover like me, you must try their house-made pastas — they are truly something special. Overall, an amazing experience all around — from the food to the atmosphere to the genuinely sweet and attentive staff. 10/10!“

“Outstanding eatery! Just wonderful food served but warm, friendly people!“

“As a driver for DoorDash, I went by here on my way to my regular job to pick up an order. I haven’t eaten yet at this location, but the customer service was fantastic and the pizza smelled good. Clean, organized and well run Round Table pizza place. Staff friendly and very helpful.“

“Recently on vacation to the area and tried Mary’s for our first time. I have to say, I truly wish they went national. This was one of the best restaurant experiences that we have ever had. We travel all over the country for different reasons with our family and we were absolutely blown away from the moment we walked in the door. The customer service was hands down best ever. Friendly and inviting from step one. Server was friendly, polite, attentive and the food was amazing. Our young son bit his tongue, pretty hard and was bleeding a bit and they over heard and without prompt went into action, offering him ice, checking in several times and even offered him a little ice cream since he didn’t eat any of his meal. The entire staff was hands down amazing and the food was just as amazing. I have never dealt with such a caring and cohesive team. Not only our serve but other staff also stopped by to check on him. We didn’t try pizza on this trip, but the pasta and sandwiches were amazing. I would highly recommend this place to anyone in the area and after 1 trip, I know why they have been around so long and had a great reputation.“
