“I grew up eating here and have never been disappointed. We had to move to AZ after living in Cali for 42 years. Any way my husband went out there and he asked if there was anything I wanted lol I sent him here. So if you are thinking of trying Paul’s do it I promise you won’t regret it.“
“Family owned establishment! Great service and food. Reasonably priced with minimal wait time. If you're in the mood for pizza, pasta, sandwiches, or a salad, this place is worth your time to check out. You will not be disappointed. I will be back.“
“Close to NY pizza. They have the 28" pizza pie! But let them know to cut in slices!!! I had order that for a party and they cut it in squares! They told me that's because parents get that for their kids and they prefer the squares. No problem after that. Also the Sicilian pizza is off the chain ⛓ ? as well. Check them out!!! ?????“
“Awesome little pizza place!This is my dad's favorite spot, so when I asked for pizza he knew where to go. We got a pizza with tons of meat and veggies, one Italian sub, basket of Garlic bread, one chocolate cake and one spumoni ice cream.Holy heck. Everything was so good! And the prices are not too bad either. I didn't get a chance to look at the full menu since when I arrived the food just got to the table. But there wasn't a single bad item.I believe they have other Italian dishes and they serve beer and wine.The restaurant itself is pretty clean. There's bathrooms for customers. Some mini game machines for kids. Service was very quick and the staff was very friendly.Would highly suggest trying it for a family dinner out.Parking: Huge parking lot outside.“
“The food is amazing. Very authentic pizza and the homemade pastas are unique and flavorful. The only downside on the menu is dessert. There is a hazelnut chocolate torte that tastes waxy, the panna cotta is good but not great and they add a lot of unnecessary toppings like black sesame seeds, and finally the gelato was icy, not creamy. I won't stop coming here because of the dessert but just be forewarned. If it's your birthday just hope they have tiramisu which is often the dessert of the day and quite good. Also, I don't understand the need for club music. It takes away from the ambiance. We always opt to sit outside where we can hear one another and they are more than accommodating.“
“the wife and i had Valentine's dinner at Marino's Italian Restaurant. the service was friendly and quick.the food was yummy, and we even had some left over for lunch the next day.we will definitely come back when we want good italian food in the bellflower area.“
“We decided to have empanadas to take home and have dinner onsite. For our takeout order we have 2 regular beef, 2 sweet beef and 2 Arab. And for dine in we order pizza and chicken Milanese with fries. Since everything is made to order we waited for our food to be made. When we finally got our order, both orders tasted freshI particularly liked the pizza, we had one which has some onions and cheese topping, this was really surprisingly good. The crust was tasty. Funny thing, side comment, I started tearing up, not sure why, the lovely owner said they were cutting a big amount of onions, which surprised me as I had the reaction as if I'm the one slicing onions. Well she was right, once I stepped out, everything cleared up for me. The owner was a lovely woman originally from Buenos Aires, she made me feel as if I'm visiting her home and she's welcoming and warm. For the empanadas, they were delicious and if you're reading this review, I recommend you go and visit La Farola and the delicious empanada awaits.“
“Wonderful service, atmosphere, and experience! The food is outstanding and each dish comes with amazing attention to detail and diverse flavors. Staff is incredibly kind and attentive. We love Bruno and the White House, we feel like family!“
“Owner was/is amazing but the food was just as spectacular! His wife adorable & kind too! My husband is a fan of canoli & very picky but loved their's. Tiramisu is my husband's favorite & again very particular but even I knew this was the best Tiramisu we had EVERY had! Only downside is unpredictable available seating. We will definitely be back often! Delicious ?“
“Ozzy is so kind. He recommended the menu carefully and he was so kind to me who was not good at English. I think the food Ozzy made me will remind me of stone in my hometown. Thank you so much for leaving a good memory. If I come to la again next time, I will definitely come back. Polo lemone is “
“I’ve been here 5+ times now and it is my my favorite Napoli-style pizza in HB. Hands down.It’s light, well balanced and sooo tasty.Unlike many other pizzas that are super loaded and greasy, this is the opposite.Quality ingredients you can ACTUALLY TASTE!Service has been outstanding every time I’ve gone.The one time my order ran late (a take out pizza) due to a weekend dinner rush and a wood fire over naturally taking longer, they gifted me a free second pie for having waited for merely 20 mins.Super delicious, quality and kind service.What more can you ask for? ?♂️And YES, it is cash only, but trust me when I say that if that’s the reason you’re not going, you’re a fool. $3 charge on the ATM they have inside will make no difference to your experience, and you will come away thanking me.Please keep up the great work!Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair ramp directly in the front“
“I had mango habanero boneless chicken wings and a topo-chico. I think they have a perfect casual sports bar setup to pop in to for a quick bite or drink. I was by myself and sometimes walking into a sports bar would be intimidating to go to solo but not here. I sat at the bar and chatted with Andres who served me. (I hope I got his name right.) Great guy, great service and definitely worth a visit. I'll be back.“
“We went here for a date night last night and had a great time. Awesome service and great food too. Our meal really stood out though thanks to our server Eduardo. Eduardo was super friendly, very hardworking, and personable. Always getting what we needed before we asked (or even knew we needed it!). Anyone who comes here and gets to be served by him will definitely be blessed and have a great experience. Thanks! Will definitely be back!“
“Tony helped me and was awesome, the pizza ? was absolutely ? delicious ?, I hadn't been there in a long time I've always liked it there but I forget how good it is and now I just want more to be honest it was wonderful they even gave me a little bag of garlic bread knots the place was clean and well kept everybody in there was working hard everything was well stocked it smelled a wonderful and I couldn't have asked for anything more I've worked at two different Pizza places in years past and I have appreciation and respect, they were on top of it and I look forward to going back thanks guys!!Parking: Nooo problemKid-friendliness: Absolutely ?“
“this place was AMAZING little small but it's a nice little spot. BUT! the food was absolutely delicious probably the best pastrami sandwich I've ever had and the pesto raviolis holy crap to freaking die for the lady at the counter was super nice and helpful and The food came out quick would Recommend all my friends and family and all food love to try immediately thankyou so much to all the staff for and amazing experience and amazing food“
“If you want to enjoy great music and excellent food, this is the place you need to visit. They have live music 5 days of the week and they bring different band groups. They offer a 4 course meal with excellent options to choose from. The staff was super attentive and friendly. This restaurant is very popular so make a reservation. They offer valet as well.“
“its been a year and a half since I have been here yet their food still tastes excellent! The calamari is the best appetizer you can get in my opinion. I loved the marinara sauce that came with it. I ordered some type of truffle pasta and they did not skip out on the truffle!! Biggest amount of truffle I have seen a restaurant give. My dad ordered a shrimp type of pasta and that was also delectable. For a dessert, we ordered the chocolate tart and it was so good!! This restaurant is on the pricer side yet still amazing!!“
“It was our first time coming back here since it has expanded, everything looks great! When you come, id recommend leaving room to order the spumoni dessert. Thank you for the great service, amazing food and good times. We will definitely be back, we love supporting a local small business.“
“It's not the best but very good pizzaFuoco pizza tastes better than the fungi pizza. But if you have a chance to go to the city of the mountain view near San Jose. Try Doppio Zero pizza.And they don't know how to make real cafe Latte. Don't order that.“
“My husband has been coming here since the 90s and it’s amazing to see a restaurant stay true to its roots. The food is delicious and the prices are reasonable. We ordered meatball subs and a cheese pizza and it was pure perfection. Thanks to Al for all you do!“
“One of the best staples of Costa Mesa in my opinion. I remember going here ever since a little girl, the quality & service has stayed the same. I went for lunch yesterday with my mother, and it was such a pleasant experience. Our waitress, although I did not get her name, had a great personality. I ordered the giant slice and salad and my mother got Lasagna. Delicious as always, and we had plenty to take home and have for lunch today. Long live Pizza d’oro!!Vegetarian options: I am vegetarian. There are all kinds of vegetarian options“
“Enjoyed Capones, but the food was not as good as it was the last time we were there about 3 weeks ago. I will give them another try.Parking: Huge parking lot very easy to park.Wheelchair accessibility: They do have wheelchair accessibility.“
“The food here is always amazing! Best Napolitano style pizza we've found outside of Napoli! The pastas and the gnocchi are amazing too. Wow! We crave it once a month minimum. The staff are so sweet and welcoming and always make us feel so welcome too!“
“Wow. I'm so beyond thrilled to have found this tiny little gem! The food is beyond delicious. Take a trip to flavortown and enjoy the ride hahahaha this place is insanely good. I got calamari and some penne russa (I think) with chicken and it came with a salad WHICH WAS ALSO SO DARN DELICIOUS. Everything was delicious. Everything was hot. The man who I believe was the owner gave me theeee best service I could ask for after a long day of work. The place looked so cute and cozy I wish I could've stayed and dined in. Found my new favorite Italian spot in Long Beach!! Thank you so much for the amazing food and service! I will definitely be back“
“This is a great place to get some Italian food. The inside is comfortable and the lighting is perfect for a date night.The most important thing I would say is to get here early. This place gets full quickly. They open for a limited amount of hours. The service is always great, the wait staff is courteous, patient, and helpful.“
“this is a favorite, go to place. the food and the service is always great. it's nothing fancy, but it's always consistent good and very reasonably priced. it's a pretty big place so even if there's a, wait, it goes fairly quickly.“
“After living in Italy for a couple years and traveling back frequently, I am extremely picky about Italian restaurants. This place completely surprised me. The food was amazing. You can tell the chef takes pride in the little details. I will make the trip back from Utah just to have the rosemary-lemon panna cotta again. Must try!!“
“It’s been years since I’ve had Hank’s pizza. I have family in town with kiddos we decided to order from Hanks tonight. They did not disappoint!! Great pizza, Yummy hot subs and pasta. Seeing Arturo after 10+ years made it even better!!“
“Michael provided great service! The food was amazing!!! I posted my receipt so you see the dishes we ordered as well as the price. The portions were large. I recommend you share a dish unless you are super hungry. We both had leftovers. I highly recommend this restaurant.“
“Where do I begin?? I have never experienced such authenticity, when it comes to Italian food. My server Valentina is always so efficient with her service and her smile and beauty??? Wow!!! Molto Bene!! Ciao for now Trenta. Will be back very “
“One of the best Italian restaurant. One of Orange County’s hidden gem. Delicious Italian food, Good service and beautiful restaurant. We love it!!! I highly recommend them. My favorites are their bread, fettuccini Alfredo and best spaghetti bolognese . They also give you generous proportion. Really must try!!!Vegetarian options: There’s vegetarian choicesKid-friendliness: Kids will love the food“
“I don't know why there isn't a long line out in front of this restaurant every night. It is a small restaurant in a location that is slightly off the restaurant beaten path. But it is Onotria, the same owner and chef as the previous iteration of Onotria that has been one of the most highly regarded restaurants in Orange County - and definitely on of the best Italian restaurants in the county for many years. The original Onotria took a hiatus for a few years but is back now in its new location with excellent food - perhaps now a little more innovative and modern. The service also excellent with a little more warmth and attentiveness thrown in, perhaps a consequence of the small venue. There were four of us, we all sampled each other's food and all agreed that it was outstanding as was the service. It's great to have Onotria back. It's definitely one of the "must try " Italian restaurants in The OC.“
“Took my girlfriend out for dinner, at first I didn't know if it was the same Ricci's that I visited when I first moved out here from New York, the place is new and beautiful it reminds me of NY & NJ Italian restaurants, this restaurant is awesome food's great also the service, well I'm Italian so it feels like I'm at home,molto romantico e il cibo italiano è il miglior cibo da mangiare ad un appuntamento, con tanto amore che Dio benedica,??“
“The service was great and the food was very good. My husband ordered the Penne pasta with sausage and enjoyed his meal. I ordered the linguine with shrimp and asparagus in a light cream sauce. It was not what I was expecting, and it was not light. It was tasty but too much for me. The lemon cake was light and so good! The only bummer is how jammed it is, I felt like I was having dinner with the family of four right next to us. And it was interesting that they brought their small dog in with them. We will go again and try other dishes!“
“First of all, the pizza was awesome! The market is off the chain! They had an absolutely amazing selection of eveyrhing. I was shocked that it was in relatively small space. The desserts did not disappoint and the meat counter was great. They also have a nice selection of frozen pasta and complete meals. They've been here for years and I used to go there regularly. I was so happy to rediscover them after I moved away. Check them out, you won't be disappointed!“
“Love this place, great for date night, totally cozy and they had a live band. We enjoyed the authentic Italian experience from the moment you step through the door. The service is amazing, all of the staff are friendly and helpful. Our food was hot and delicious, there is definitely something for everyone on the menu??“
“I absolutely love this place!! It is delicious! I love that they offer a soup or salad along with your meal. It makes it all worth it. I always walk out full and satisfied. My favorite is the rigatoni al pollo. They also have great martinis.“
“Great food and drink. Everything ordered for our party of six was delicious and found pricing to be good as well. Only complaint was the restaurant appeared to be slightly understaffed and we waited a while for next course. Also hoping the upstairs seating reopens as it would help the overall noise level.“
“SOLID pasta. Had the parpadelle vodka on my most recent visit but had others in the past and they were all great. I wouldn't mind if the prosciutto with the parpadelle wasnt crispy.The tables are quite small and you have to be ok with dining close quarters. Service was adequate and friendly. Wish they had a couple beers on tap but didnt take away much from the dining experience“
“The food was absolutely fabulous. Our server Jordan was outstanding and very attentive. The food was superb! We started out with a Polenta e Funghi appetizer and a very nice glass of Modus Ruffino red wine. We shared a verde salad which was plenty to split. I had the Ravioli Brasato and my husband had the Penne Zucchini Gambe both very tasty dishes. Our friends had the Tortelloni Limocello and Ravioli Brasato as well.“
“Nice Italian place. Had been here 6 years ago for the first time. Not a great fan of Italian food. But, if I want to try Italian this is the place I come to. I came here recently. Same good quality of food and service. In fact they got better with service. I strongly recommend this place for trying Italian food in and around the city of Orange area.“
“So so glad I got around to trying this place out, the pastas are SO GOOD!! We tried the mentaiko and the squid ink pasta - the flavor profile for both was perfect and the noodles were cooked al dente! The portion size was just right too. Will definitely be back to try more of the menu“
“When I tell you me and my family came here to eat on Friday the 2nd of February 2024 and the food was amazing the service was perfect ?! It gave me a good home feeling like my grandparents house or something similar. The Italian Soda was tasty ?. I had the chicken Alfredo fettuccine, which was amazing creamy and well seasoned. Me and my family will definitely be back. Thank Rufinos?? ?“
“Amazing service and super delicious food. I have Celiac so I needed something gluten free and had a delicious GF chicken fettuccine alfredo. My family loved their meals as well. Would highly recommend!Dietary restrictions: Took great care to be sure I was safe to eat the dishes I ordered. (GF)“
“One of kind pizza! At least for Costa Mesa. Deep dish Chicago style is one you must experience. Thick but almost croissant like crust piled high with toppings. Tomato sauce was tangy and delicious. Full of meet and cheese. The 14" was enough to feed 5 people. One slice pretty much filled most of us up.“
“Small coffee shop within high rise business building. Lots of sitting outside and parking is 2 hour complimentary with validation. Tried instant tiramisu and ice americano. Liked both and instant tiramisu is more lukewarm desert than coffee. Like this “
“Love the food at Rutabegorz! They have such a huge and eclectic menu and a handful of gluten free options, including gluten free pasta!Parking: There are parking stops on the street in front of the restaurant and the surrounding streets. There's also free parking garage a short walk away.“
“Amazing dinner experience. Service: attentive, never had to ask for a refill on beverages and water, cleared dishes every quickly. Servers were very friendly. Food: We got 2 appetizers. 1. calamari was cooked perfectly and tasted great. 2. Caprese salad was huge and so fresh. The mozzarella cheese was yummy. We got the chicken picatta and chicken Marsala for dinner- the tenderest juiciest chicken ever. You didn't need a knife to cut the chicken. Can't wait to come back!“
“After reading the reviews I gave this place a shot and they did not disappoint. Good pizza is hard to find. The crust is awesome being not too thick or thin, perfect amount of sauce and fresh ingredients. Staff is very courteous and professional. This will surely be my go to and highly recommend. I ordered a large meat lovers yesterday and when I arrived I was told they accidentally made it an extra large, but gave it to me at the large price. It fed 4 people with a couple slices left over.“
“I've had several posts about Renato's but I always find something new to love everytime I visit.I personally did not eat this luscious raspberry cheesecake, but I would have. My body doesn't get along with milk products. However, my best friend ate it and she loves desserts! It was her first time at Renato's and she was impressed with this dessert! I swear she licked the plate.?As for the service, I can hardly drink out of my glass of water before it gets refilled, they are always ready to package up any size leftovers, and they just seem to be there when you need them.Lastly, from the mural on the wall to the video on TV, it feels like we've stepped into a little slice of Italy.“
