“11/17/2025
Stopped in here to have a bite with a friend. Nice dim lighting creates a great ambiance. We were seated relatively quickly. Open seating in this occasion. Alejandro was very attentive to us. Not a long wait for our orders to be taken. They have an exquisite Salmon Salad. Dining area is very clean and organized. Either in-use or prepped for next customer use. Facilities clean and well maintained. Will surely return many times!
Definitely a 5-star rating! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you Tutto Fresco!
Thank you Stephen White!

“We ordered the Salmon Pesto dinner along with the Chicken Parmigiana and both dishes were excellent. The presentation felt elegant and everything tasted wonderful. Considering the quality the price was very reasonable and we left completely pleased with the experience.“

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

“Top notch Italian food ... Especially for a chain restaurant. Out server was fast, friendly, and efficient. Her right biceps was strong from hearing all that cheese onto salads... And anything else we wanted it on. We all had different dishes from lasagna to shrimp to fettuccini. We kept sharing and couldn't decide which was best .. All of them!“

“Roberto at Gusto has been amazing with the catering service at our 5 year old's birthday party. We had 45 people - 25 adults and 20 kids, all of who were extremely happy with the food. We had the types of pasta, 2 sauces, garlic bread, veggie skewers and condiments. Highly recommend Gusto for catering. Top notch service, excellent food and catering supplies at great price.“

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

“Great food. Great service. Friendly staff. Relaxed atmosphere. Place was clean.“

“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“

“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.“

“Great food and service and prices“

“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!!“

“From the moment we walked in it had just a very inviting atmosphere and they made us so welcome. we ordered the chicken alfredo pizza which was out of this world. Very tasty, great sauce lot of chicken, very cheesy and flavorful, awesome crust. We can't wait to go back and try something else. I definitely recommend it“

“I’ve always been happy with the service and food . My comfort food like eating with family . Always felt welcomed“

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

“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“

“Where the Conca’d Oro tradition continues with all the same recipes from their recently closed location in Orange.. Frank and the girls exceeded our expectations tonight with the antipasto salad, garlic bread 🥖 lasagna and topped off with tiramisu 🌰🍷🍷😎✔️😍“

“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.“

“The pizza & spaghetti lunch were really good! The meat sauce had plenty of meat ! The service was awesome.! The garlic bread 2 slices was hot and tastey ! My only complaint would be if someone spends $25 + tip for lunch when you ask for a couple more pieces of garlic bread to take home with my huge portions and they want to sell you a whole loaf! That was a turn off for me! Just give the customer more bread without a charge l could see if l was asking for a whole basket! Nickel & diming is never good! FYI“

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

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

“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.“

“Had one of the best experience at this Olive Garden my waiter Bill did a fantastic job was very attentive and very welcoming. The food will stay the same pretty much at every restaurant but it's the way I was treated will definitely come back shout out to Bill. If you want a good experience definitely come to this Olive Garden and if Bill is your waiter you'll have a great time.“

“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.“

“Excellent time! Ordered the Calabrian Steak and Shrimp Bucatini w/ extra, extra cheese and the Chocolate Lasagna for dessert. The Calabrian crème sauce was spicy, but not overpowering. The dessert was scrumptious! Sarah, our waitress, checked in to make sure everything was perfect. Especially the request for extra, extra cheese lol. Thank you Sarah and Olive Garden for a beautiful and delicious evening!“

“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.“

“Had lots of fun, at the Chinese New Years festival“

“Everything was fabulous atmosphere, service food was amazing great drinks“

“Nice, standard. Good ambience“

“I stopped by here and ordered the Chicken Alfredo pasta, it was good and filling, that's one thing about olive garden, the dishes are always plentiful that I usually take home leftovers. The pasta was cooked just right, the Alfredo sauce was rich and creamy, and the chicken was tender, server was friendly and attentive, food came out promptly even though the place was fairly busy.“

“I had an amazing visit to Buca di Beppo in Garden Grove, such a great place right in Orange County. This is my new favorite place to go for authentic Italian Cuisine. Sammii recommended the chicken parmigiana and red velvet cake and it was really delicious. It felt great to get such a friendly welcome upon showing up as well. Sammii was kind, so helpful going way above and beyond to make sure my time there was incredible. Adrianna also took some really great pics that our family loves. I have absolutely no complaints at all I highly recommend everyone to check this place out and find out for yourself why everyone is so pleased with the food and service.“

“Thank you CCCV lion tamers and NY pizzeria for accommodating us delicious hot cheesy pizza 🍕“

“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.“

“It’s delishes pizza dine in or take out . Next time I’m trying the salads“

“This is an odd place. There are so many questions about it. It seems to be some sort of event space . It’s unfinished as you enter the building- really weird but get past that and have a seat- you will quickly forget about that.

The restaurant/room is very bright (wish they would dim the lights a bit) and formal setting but California casual seems fine for attire.

The food- absolutely outstanding. We had a business dinner with about 10 people and everyone was very happy with their meal. There is a comment about the steaks- get the fillet over the NY. Much better cut and it was noticeable.

Their house Old Fashion was with Makers Mark and came with a cinnamon stick- thought it was odd but tasted fantastic.

I have eaten at some very nice steak houses and I have to say the food here is amazing but the setting is odd. I would rate it a 4+ overall. I want to give it a 5 but can’t- there are so many weird things going on outside the one room restaurant.“

“Absolutely delicious! This local pizza spot is my family’s favorites. The crust is perfectly crispy on the outside and soft inside, and the toppings taste super fresh. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and the place has a cozy home vibe. My family has been coming here for many years, quality has been always great. I have been making group orders for school events, the owner is very accommodating, the pizzas we got are all hot and taste amazing! If you’re looking for best pizza and great service, I definitely recommend stopping by!“

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

“Five Stars 🌟, you will not be disappointed“
