The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the staff is always kind and attentive. Highly recommend Crivello’s if you’re looking for authentic Italian cuisine paired with outstanding service!

I went with some friends on our way to pageant of the masters. A small unassuming place with very delicious Italian authentic food. The service was spectacular and so was the chianti. We ordered the calamari before or dinner and I enjoyed the beef ravioli with pesto sauce and it was delicious.

Crivello’s is our local Italian spot that my daughter and I love to go to for a girls day! Our server Christy is super friendly, kind and attentive. The food, well I used to be a professional chef and I’m from the east coast and this spot does the trick! Super fresh, tasty, authentic~ we love love love the calamari, bruschetta, chicken parm, octopus, desserts and I don’t know what they do to their house salad but sometimes I just crave that :) …but of course end up getting so much more. It’s delicious!

Pricey for an ordinary Italian food. Not worth the $20 plus. Lady server a bit rushed and less gracious.
I took my friend of 30 years for her Birthday after searching for just the right place by menu comparison. We were provided with delicious Bread toasts and Balsamic Vinegar and olive oil.... had a bottle of Sparkling Italian Water, in lovely glasses, An Artichoke for appetizer and PICATTAS: Veal and Chicken, ate every bite! Then Tarimasu and Canoli and complimentry Birthday Ice Cream. I was definately not looking for frugal: FLAVOR and Recipé PREPARATION is my point, and it was worth every penny!!!
THE BEST PICATTA!!! Will definatel return to CRIVELLO'S in San Juan Capistrano!!!

Food is good but the service was terrible today. Christi, our server, was very negative and non engaging. She struggled to sell us 6 bottles of their homemade sauce.
Most likely won’t return.
