“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!“

“When we went to eat on Friday night there was an amazing server named skyler(Skylar) and she was the best server we have ever received. My fiance was eating soup and when he was finished she noticed that he didn't eat part of the soup and specifically asked if he would like it without. The attention to detail and customer service was above and beyond to where we will be going back just for the customer service that was provided. I hope she sees this review because she was amazing. :) Thank you.“

“Had a Very nice Birthday Celebration! Food was good and staff was Awesome!! Thank you!“

“My husband and I came to Disneyland for our anniversary. We were looking for a place near our hotel and this did not disappoint. The atmosphere was fabulous and serving staff was great. Our food was AMAZING and we had soo much. We brought food back to the hotel and they gave us plates to take with us. Definitely one of our new favorites and will be coming back when we visit“

“The food was so great! The waiter was so attentive. We had lots left over. And desert to go.“

“This is genuinely the best Italian restaurant me and my wife have ever been to and probably the best meal we have ever had. The calamari is the best we have ever had and the side salads were amazing with the house vineagrette. The fettuccine with lobster and the chicken parmigiana were absolutely amazing. We finished with a canoli and it was the best we have ever had. The atmosphere was really nice and the service was top notch. Our waitress would refill drinks within seconds of them being even close to empty and empty dishes were picked up almost immediately. For all of this you would expect a hefty price tag but all of that food was under $85. We will 100% be going back!“

“My wife and I have traveled to a lot of places, eaten at a lot of restaurants, and this one truly stands out. They could easily charge double for their food, and I wouldn’t bat an eye. Incredibly fair prices on delicious food with friendly and fast service - I wish we could take this place home with us.“

“I am Italian and Greek, and this is by far the best food, service, ownership and overall experience I have ever had in a restaurant in CA. I have been here almost 30 years.“

“Italian Express has great food and even better service. It's a great local family owned Italian restaurant. All of the typical foods are awesome - pizzas, pastas, etc - but also try their spicy wings and their garlic knots!!“

“Great Italian Sandwhich. Huge. Bread is great.“

“Simply over the top! That’s a wrap“

“Love this place.

Lalo is an awesome waiter, he’s only there on weekends.

Great:

- salmon (ask them to not overcook)
- eggplant parm
- caprese salad

Check out their private dining rooms - Cantina and levendi“

“Friendly service and tasty Italian food. The Gnocchi was amazing, also the panna cotta was delicious. I recommend this place.“

“The aroma is so heavily delicious you smell it as soon as you get out of your car. Great wine selection and the bread so soft and warm. The egg plant Parmesan was to die for. Can’t wait to return. The place was crowded, but worth the wait. Servers and cooks all working quickly to get the food out while it was hot. Happy atmosphere and very clean“

“Great food and service and prices“

“The service is always great. Running between appointments, I call my order in from the car. when I get there, my table is waiting with my salad and basket of bread. My fettucine alfredo followed in 5 min. and was delicious! Had delicious meal instead of some cheap fast food and was able to make it to next appointment in plenty if time. Been coming here for 2 decades. Always good.“

“Our kids loved dining at Olive Garden when we lived in Lynnwood, WA. After moving to Irvine, CA, we go there regularly for the lunch special. The Irvine location is the best one in Orange County. The service is consistently excellent, making each visit a pleasant experience.

Our kids enjoy the kids’ menu and love dipping the signature breadsticks into the Zuppa Toscana and Chicken Gnocchi soups. They always say it’s so tasty.

I highly recommend it for a delightful family meal!“

“Corey was AMAZING! He was right, the cheesecake was a must!“

“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.“

“I had the spinach Ravioli, was really good. Went around 5 and wasn't busy. Close to my job. Had a well variety of choices.“

“Quite honestly, it just doesn’t get any better than this… we LOVE this restaurant. Julia & Doug.“

“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.“

“I'm not the biggest fan of Olive Garden, but this time I went with my family and we were a party of 8. We all had the lunch special and a lot of soup. If anything, that's what makes Olive Garden great. Anyways, two managers came by to ask how we were, and one of them congratulated me for graduating. It made us all laugh. I graduated years ago. I was just wearing a Harry Potter robe LOL! But it was a funny time that day receiving so many congratulations.

Anyhow, I ordered the fettuccine Alfredo. Not anything wowing but definitely not Spaghetti Factory bad. It was good.“

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

“Very nice atmosphere, delicious food, in a family-owned restaurant! Loved it and will definitely be back!“

“We have been coming to Luigi’s for about 20 years and it never disappoints. My husband always gets chicken parm and I get the Tortillini D’ Angelo and it is amazing. The pizza is also great. You won’t be disappointed. Great food, good service and prices.“

“Nice, standard. Good ambience“

“It has been a year since we ate Big Bertha's and my family is STILL talking about how tasty this pizza is! Got a giant pizza delivered the first day of our Disney trip, super quick and friendly delivery, and we able to pack it into the parks and the perfect post park day snack. LOVED that we could split the pizza ingredients by quarters giving us a lot of flexibility. Looking forward to our next trip so we can get more pizza.“

“This is the best place ever am obsessed with the food here!!“

“Love their food! It’s delicious every single time“

“We were here for the X-JAMM Elements of Sound event during NAMM 2019. I bought our tickets because of Devin Townsend, but we were both excited to see Larry Mitchell, OHM (guitar god Chris Poland) and Larry Mitchell perform live, as well. I had no idea what to expect from the venue itself; I bought tickets two days before the show and was super disappointed by our placement. We were in the front row, but sitting at stage right. I thought for sure I'd miss a lot because I am so vertically challenged. Turns out I had no reason to despair. Our seats were practically on stage. They set up a small row of seats where the pit would live (in another, non-seated venue). We had up-close views of all performers, and the audio was expertly mixed to allow us to experience the music in all its glory. We were shown to our seats right when we checked in, and instantly had one of the friendliest waitresses at our side, asking for our drink and/or food orders. We both asked for a Guinness and told her we might order food later (it's not food from the restaurant next door if you're curious; they only serve stadium-type items). She came back empty-handed, apologizing profusely that the bar was out of Guinness. We changed our orders, and let her know it was totally fine, but she was so sweet and I could tell she felt bad. She made it a point to check on us throughout the night (we did end up sharing an order of $8 nachos to go with our $8 beers; at least she hooked us up on the cheese sauce), making sure not to bother us while a performance was actually happening. Now that I know that this place exists, I'll keep an eye on their events calendar. I liked how easy it was to get there, and how friendly the staff was. I just know to plan to eat dinner ahead of time, to save money.“
