I really don't want to give this any stars. I think the pasta was ok, but nothing to make me come back!
Pizza awful like cardboard or frozen. Ordered veggie pizza only had bell peppers, red and yellow. No olives, mushrooms or some other veggies.Tried the fried rice thing. Needed much more seasoning and cheese. The waitress was nice but hadn't tried any of the food to know how to tell us what was good. Wouldn't have mattered really because non of it was. The waitress did do refill on water etc but after the meal our group of 4 just sat to chat. We really couldn't have a full conversation because the waitress kept asking if we were ok. We finally told her we just wanted to talk for a minute. It wasn't like we were taking a table from anyone else. The place was dead! The salad seemed fresh. So maybe 1 star for fresh salad.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Jason B.Riverside, CA1811513Jun 16, 2014
Went here on a MOnday nite. They open at 5. Have a menu board in front saying all the speicals they have plus daily specials. I had the Veal MArsala which I am a big fan of. It had lots of garlic, which I enjoy, and the veal was tender and delicious. The lasagna was good, as was the chicken alfredo. Pizza is different. Its done more like a wood fired kinda crust . I would go back. Very attentive service and the owner/chef came out and inquired how everything was. I would give it a chance. Try it once. if your happy, let them know, and tell others. I know I will patronize them again.

Eat here once and was not impressed at all. There's a lot better pizzas out there. Kinda had a cardboard taste, dry not much sauce. I think I've had better frozen pizza's from the grocery store. Maybe it was just a bad first impression. Not sure if I'd try it again.

So are these guys out of business? I went by on Friday night after unsuccessfully trying to call. They were closed! It's too bad. The menu looks great.
I honestly can't give it even one star, if they're closed....Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Steven P.Upland, CA1754212Jul 6, 2014
Excellent service and food!! One of the best experiences in a fine dining establishment I've ever had. They were quick and very friendly, and I will definitely come back for more pasta! From my experience the sauce, bread, and everything tasted amazing. Rich with flavor and color, these people are artists of their craft. Would highly recommend to anyone who loves good Italian food.

We visited on 2.13.14 for dinner. Recommended by friends, we were surprised that we had not seen any advertising for this restaurant. I suppose it was to our benefit, as the establishment was not busy.
The menu may be a bit confusing for some, as it is not set up like conventional menus. The staff said they are working on it. The food was great. She had a spicy pasta that was cooked perfectly. The staff was quick to point out that we could order off menu, which led me to my order of veal marsala. The chef, who has spent the majority of his life in Italy, really made a fine dish for me. A generous portion of meat, topped with mushrooms. We also ordered a pizza, and really enjoyed it. We are hoping that in future visits, the selections offered will come with sides. Not that sides cannot be had, just that it is not evident that it is not included unless you are asking questions. I thought my marsala would have been accompanied by pasta. Not a complaint, just an observation.
Overall, we were very impressed with the food quality, and the background flavors most certainly had me reminiscing about my Grandmothers' cooking, who was an italian immigrant. We look forward to return visits.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0Business owner information

Great service. Garlic bread is alright. But the Brusettta was great! The chicken parmesan was good. Nice size chicken with small pasta.

This place isn't anything to write home about. The pasta sauce in the lasagna tasted canned to me and my boyfriend said the chicken in his fettuccine alfredo tasted a little weird. The bread was decent and the service was fast and friendly. Cheaper Italian food so I guess you get what you pay for.
