If you’re looking for exceptional service in Orange County paired with some of the best Italian food around, this is the place! The staff nails every detail, from the small touches like keeping your water glass full and clearing plates promptly, to the big things, like delivering absolutely incredible food. I’d give this 10 stars if I could, every bite makes you feel like you’ve been transported straight back to Italy.

I have been in for a few meals now and it’s such an incredible experience every time! Family run and a truly authentic experience! Our server was a lovely Italian woman with blonde hair who gave us impeccable service throughout our experience! Food is never a disappointment and the owners are such kind people!
