50 Best Italian Restaurants near Rowland Heights

“Excellent place to enjoy Hong Kong style cafe food!
On weekends from 3PM-5:30PM, they offer an excellent afternoon team late lunch menu which is under $13!

Great wide selection of cafe style dishes, so filling you have enough for a snack later =]

We ordered:
Minced Beef & Egg on Rice - Very light savory in flavoring which is nice for lunch so you don't feel guilty. I had enough to take home to make more sunny side up eggs to enjoy it with

Sweet & Sour Pork Ribs - Comes with a large side of jasmine rice. The sour and sweet sauce is just right, not overpowering in flavor on one spectrum. There are bones on some of the ribs FYI. The sauteed vegetables is a great balance to the rib meat.

Baked Sole Fillet & Spinach in Cream Sauce - I chose pasta which hit the carb crave I was having. They had big chunks of sole fillet to balance the creamy sauce. I would recommend adding a bit of pepper if you want some adjustments to the flavoring.

The staff seated us immediately and provided their complimentary soup of the day, which was cream corn soup
Definitely coming back to enjoy more dishes in the near future =]“

“My second time visiting this great establishment. Once again, the pizza and all that they serve is ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!!! I had some caprese , burata, Fior Di Latte and the Vespa Pizza along with a Limonata Rosa. Our Service Yadira was amazing and very attentive. She was very helpful with any questions we had. Thank you Yadira and all the staff at Fuoco. Definitely my favorite Pizza!!! See you soon!“

“The food is always great, and on Tuesdays they have 1/2 off a second entree when you buy the first. I personally love their salad so much that I would go there just for that alone, and im not really a salad person. Service is always phenomenal and the vibes are nice. I do wish they had the buckler non alcoholic drink that's on the menu, but they necer seem to have it. Highly recommend this place.“

“Food and Sevice was good!!“

“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.“

“Great food and service and prices“

“Truly a hidden gem. Several levels of dining space combined with the big fireplace gives the restaurant a unique ambiance. The food was superb, incredible pasta. There was a live pianist playing that made the evening even more memorable. As it often happens with places like this, service was impeccable.“

“been ordering for 4 yrs love there menu good prices happy they deliver“

“love the food and service is great“

“the Pescatore with garlic cream was excellent. As was the cold table water in a glass bottle,nice touch. Calamari and garlic bread appetizers were also very good. I would have liked a bit more atmosphere of an Italian restaurant and not 80's music playing in the background. Took my family for dinner first time and I would go back.“

“Seasoning is perfect! Taste is everything!“

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

“Friendly staff, clean space and amazing food.“

“It’s just a fun place to meet friends and have a good meal.“

“Location formerly was El Appetiz. Jary’s has brought it back. Good portions great tasting food. Pizza, Calzones, lasagna, chicken shrimp jambalaya, salads are all excellent. Better to call it in & pick it up. It’s a Hidden secret.“

“Food A- Service B+ Value/Pricing B Atmosphere C+ large screen TVs and Oldies music?! This is not a Sports bar.Too much background noise.?“

“Had a rehearsal dinner for our sons wedding here. The food was great and service was awesome. This was the first time for Angie and O to eat at a Buck di Beppo and glad we had such a great experience.“

“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!“

“Hey guys i forget say, we never no waiting for long time, we when and get in, seat and our server was there ready for all, I order, calamari, (entrées) garlic bread, salad, soup, I order salmon was perfect size with vegetables, my favorite eat a soup, my husband order shrimp pasta, Mouhamed S, was great and give us good attention.. Thank You“

“Small little restaurant but super cute vibe inside. The staff is great. Food is so good! Our favorite is the Avocado Salad & Bambino Pasta. They also have an appetizer that's so good but can't remember the name. It's a shrimp wrapped in bacon with I believe the same sauce as the bambino pasta. Will definitely continue going.“

“Impeccable attentive service. Big hefty portions. Great bread sticks as always. The soups were also good. The entrees were average.

There is a smell of stale cheese in the air in most parts of the restaurant, some parts worse than others, I'm guessing from the decades of Parmesan grounded into the carpet. It was inigorable and honestly spoilt the experience.“

“Best pizza in town! Excellent service and the place is really well run. Very reasonable prices too. Keep it up guys.“

“I had the Pasta Pomodora and it was outstanding.!Their BBQ Chicken Pizza great as well as their Taste of Italy! We will be returning!“

“I like the lunch special. The price is very reasonable. The food is good and so is the service. They give you a good portion too. it's a small, but cozy place. This was my first time there. It's fairly close to my house. The guy that served me was Chris and he was very nice and friendly. I will recommend this place to my family and friends. I look forward to coming back and trying other dishes.“

“Incredible service, ambience & food. �����“

“Beautiful ambiance Good Food and Good Drinks The GM Alex was very friendly and hospitable Thank You Alex We will be back!“

“I wanted to provide some feedback on my recent dining experience at your establishment.

The food that was served was delicious and definitely exceeded my expectations. However, I must express some concerns about the service that we received. The host assigned to our table did not check up on our needs as often as I had hoped for. I found myself continually having to ask for assistance and even had to raise my voice to get the attention of another hostess.

Moreover, the silverware provided was not clean, and the napkins given with the silverware were also not up to par. I believe that cleanliness should be a top priority in any dining establishment.“

“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“

“love the food and service is great“

“Had the Pestopalooza on a recommendation ans it didn't disappoint!“

“I just order pizza from here from now on. Super good super good price“

“my favorite is the Regina!“

“I arrived during a week day for lunch with my dear friend who lives within walking distance. I was pleasantly surprised with quality and good tasting food. I had the egg plant sandwich's lunch special and salad, very good. The owner/waiter and wife were very nice and friendly, everyone that was there were return customers and very familiar with restaurant, it had family atmosphere. The only thing that drew me back was its dark colors, the room needs a little lighter color. The chief lived in Italy and Paris where he learn to cook, I thought it was very interesting because originally he is from El Salvador so that’s where he gets his Latin infusion. Prices were affordable.“

“This was a great place for a fundraiser. Very helpful, communicative and friendly. Plenty of parking and seating. Even when the restaurant was full, it is still quiet enough to hold conversations without yelling. I plan to hold more events here!“

“Had the “Aloha” for dinner… Delicious! We’ll be back. ❤️❤️“

“VERY DELICIOUS PIZZA 🍕 I LOVE 💕 IT“

“Fun location with delicious entrees, salads, drinks and so much more!“

“Great service and great food 👌.“

“Generally good for a thin crust pizza. Today, however... I placed my usual order for all pepperoni and mushrooms, with sausage and olives on half. What I was given was double cheese with pepperoni on one half and sausage on the other. The one time I didn't open the box to check...“
