Service was great! The meatball sandwich was devoured in the car by the grandkids as well as myself! It was so good I came back two weeks later. We called ahead for our order and didn't have to wait at all. Just had to ask for napkins etc. The bread was so good and that marinara sauce mmmm hmmm it was the BIZNESS!!

I'm so glad that this restaurant survived the Eaton fire! But they did suffer from losing power and subsequently losing all their perishable food inventory and having to go through smoke clean up. Please come and visit this Pasadena gem! 3 generations of family owned serving delicious food! I was born and raised just up the street from the restaurant and have fond memories of family meals at this wonderful restaurant. There is nothing bad on the menu. Whenever it is too packed to get a table we just order to go and eat at home. The pizzas are awesome and the pasta dishes are on point! The antipasto salad is a must! Be warned about huge servings! They do have a full bar, not just beer and wine. Please come and enjoy some awesome Italian food from a mom and pop style restaurant. You won't regret it! There's a small parking lot in back but plenty of street parking. Help support small businesses. Remember to be kind to everyone and Thanks for your interest. Take care read more

The only place to get Italian food on this side of town! Great to eat in and easy to take out if you want to eat at home. The sandwiches are great especially the meatball sub, Yum! Love their meatballs and my favourite pizza is big D's, it comes with so many delicious toppings but really, all the pizzas are tasty.. The family that owns it and their employees are super nice, it's definitely a staple when it comes to eating out in our house! read more

The female staffers working takeaway shifts today (Sunday around 4pm-ish) epitomize the power of great customer service elevating the restaurant as a whole. Thanks and y'all need praise and raises ! read more

Best Italian food there is! Have been eating at Domenico's for over 35 years. The family also has the biggest hearts. Bow Tie Special is my all time favorite! read more

This place feels like home. I love the Randy's Calabrese Pizza, it literally brought me back to life after feeling so depressed when my grandpa died. It was the only thing I had an appetite for. My go to meal is the antipasto with some mozzarella sticks! Donnie has kept the family business going to a standard that makes the whole family and community proud. Support Small Business read more

It's Sunday, watching football and eating pizza with my buddy Bob is par for the course. So we went to Domenicos. I've been coming to the this original location for at least 50 years. As the years before their pizza is delicious! The service at the counter was fast , and with a smile. That always sets the tone . It's been a minute since I've been here because of the Eaton fire. Not to worry the pizza is fantastic and the sit down part of the restaurant is open for business as well 11-4 . Family owned and always great food If you are in Pasadena, definitely Recommended read more

We arrived 15 minutes before closing and were warmly greeted by the server. The was one other person eating and we placed our orders, never feeling rushed as the World Cup was playing on TV. The food was great, large portions to carb load before my 5k run the next day with calm ambiance. The staff was great for my birthday dinner, thank you! read more

This place is actually pretty good. I placed an order on the phone and it was quoted 15 minute wait time. I got two pieces of garlic bread with little bit of cheese and pasta with chicken and vegetables with marinara sauce. You are able to customise the pasta and sauce you'd like which is so great. The ambiance is quite nice. read more

Domenico's Italian Restaurant - Chicken N' Vegetables - Pizza Near Me - Pasadena, California

The best pizza and antipasto in Los Angeles. I highly recommend. This place is incredible!

The place is located on the corner of Washington Blvd. It has a small dining room and a pick up location. We ordered carry out and our order was completed in less than 20 mins. The service was quick and friendly. We couldn't decide which sub we wanted so we ordered two- meatball and roast beef - they ate large subs and so we cut them into thirds to try as well as the fried zucchini. The meatballs were covered with marinara and served in a toasted roll- it was good. The roast beef was tender, tasty and topped with cheese, mushrooms and onions. This was my favorite one. It went well with the slices of friend zucchini dipped in marinara. This meal was a bargain when you divide it three ways because it is enough for three! read more

Unfortunately, hours weren't updated to Yelp - yet. Hopefully my pic will help someone else. Review shouldn't reflect business, but in order to post hours publicly, Yelp requested a review. So this is just based on not being able to dine in at 6:30 on a Saturday. Best of luck! We will try again in the future. I think pick up is available, but Hubs wanted to sit down for his "pie". read more

Domenico's Italian Restaurant - Bummer! Dine in ends at 4pm on Sat! - Pizza Near Me - Pasadena, California

Domenicos has been through a lot through the many years they've been open. The past year has been uniquely challenging for the family and the neighborhood. I've enjoyed many menu items, including the Big "D" special pizza and garlic bread with cheese. Their flavors are always on point, and I usually have leftovers for another couple meals. I know everybody's very protective of their pizza preference, but Domenicos is excellent! I've also enjoyed the meat lasagne and fettucini alfredo. Both were great, the alfredo being very creamy and strongly flavored with parmesan. The antipasto salad is great too. Mama Rosa's recipes are unique and filled with flavor. It's nice to support a family-owned business with a great reputation. I look forward to trying their other pasta dishes and sandwiches. All of their information is on their website. Items can be ordered for pick-up and delivery and customized online with many add-ons available. Street parking is available for pick-up. read more

Like my previous review stated I've been a customer since the 90's- My daughter is visiting from the Bay Area and we planned to have dinner here- when we arrived, it was closed - we were 18 min late. We decided to order food at the takeout side but couldn't find somewhere to go eat it- it's raining- We live far and too wet to go to a park. Luckily I recognized a regular employee there - she greeted me and I mentioned our problem and asked if there was any way we could possibly use one of their tables- without hesitation she said hold on a min- came back and literally opened the restaurant for us- there were 7 of us. Treated us like VIP (as always) served us, didn't rush at all.. I love the ambience and how they treat you like family.. the food is as delicious as it has always been... Thank you Domenicos for your delicious food and hospitality. read more

Domenico's Italian Restaurant - Fettuccine Alfredo - Pizza Near Me - Pasadena, California

Came at night for a late night meal and the main restaurant was closed but the side pizzeria was still open. The ladies at the front were friendly and welcoming and got my order out quickly. The Fettuccini Alfredo was good but I REALLY liked their manicotti! It was full of flavor and they didn't skimp on the sauce! I got back to my airbnb and almost ate the whole container it was so good haha. If I'm back in this area I'm definitely coming back for more manicotti! read more

Food was ok but I never got a refill and there was flys everywhere and there was barely any pizza

I ordered two veal patty sandwiches from Domenico's. They were not editable - the pattys were old, dry, and hard. Even though I requested Marina sauce, they only contained a very few drops. I've ordered from them before and was satisfied, but this was a disaster. $44 + down the drain. Not sure I'll be back. Be careful ordering delivery from them as they probably gave me the lunch leftovers even though it during at dinner time. read more

A friend recommended Domenico's for takeout pizza and they did not disappoint. The crust was round and well tossed, the toppings were generous, the sauce was just right for us, and the service was fast and friendly. I will go back. Parking was easy to find behind Domenico's, and my pie was on time, even though I messed up the online order. That was because the manager saw my strange mistake and took the time too call me and get thing right. read more

Family owned, great service, authentic, fresh, and delicious food. The bowtie pasta with mushrooms is delightful.

Pizza was delicious 10 out of 10, ingredients were fresh. Very peaceful environment with friendly staff. read more

Domenico's Italian Restaurant - Hours as of January 2026 - Pizza Near Me - Pasadena, California

I had lunch with friends this Saturday at Domenico's inside the restaurant. This was the first time I have been inside the restaurant since 2019 since they reopened the dine in restaurant. I had been ordering takeout but I missed sitting inside. This visit was extra special because one of the friends in our group I had not seen for 9 years. One friend ordered chicken parm and another friend and I ordered a large pepperoni and meatball pizza. The pizza was made to perfection. Thin, crispy, cheesy and the meat balls were delicious. We left Domenico's with leftovers and great memories of our conversation. read more

Pros: Friendly Staff, Casual, Friendly Cons: Food was mediocre at best. Maybe we just had a bad experience but the sauted mushrooms were under seasoned and swimming in a flavorless liquid. Not what I was expecting at all. The garlic cheese bread was good. Lasagna was good. Fettuccine with mushrooms and shrimp was just ok. Shrimp were overcooked and chewy. Mushrooms were from a can. Not bad but not worth a trip read more

Amazing value. The portions were big enough to take home and eat two more "leftover" meals. Would definitely return.

Delicious food (especially the fettuccine Alfredo!) with a family/homemade feel. Love the array of menu items and there is something for everyone. We also LOVE their catering menu. Our go-to for partes! read more

Got a large double pepperoni and mushroom for lunch. The crust is decent with a good rise at the edges. Quality topping and sauce. I like how the olives were chopped and sprinkled throughout, so the flavor wasn't over powering and really complimented the overall taste. Haven't had this pizza for years, I'm glad it's still around. 4 stars read more

I've been to Domenico's twice since I moved to Pas a month ago LOL. Its a fan favorite in our household. Portions and prices are amazing we got the family feast for 2 of us and it took us 3 meals to finish everything. Please support this small business!!! They've been around forever read more

We enjoyed the ribeye steak- I was craving beef (lunch special, 1/2 price) and the buffet (varied choices: white fish in cream sauce, veal mushroom wine sauce, pasta, shrimp, wings, pizza and other choices- $22). Delicious and worthy, worthy. Definitely coming back. Alondra was our server- sweet and wonderfully helpful. Perfect place to bring family and friends. read more

My favorite pizza spot Always loaded with a ton of pepperoni and cheese. Only reason I give 4 instead of 5 stars is because it's slightly oily which is fair for the amount of toppings also it's on expensive side for takeout. Still worth it, I would choose Domenicos over any other pizza spot read more

Very fresh and piping hot pizza! I loved the crunchy crust, and it wasn't too salty which I loved. There's a small parking lot in the back and street parking. The entrance is at the front on Washington. We ordered pick up and the process was efficient and simple. read more

We were staying in East Pasadena for the week and needed some Italian flavor. Thank you, Yelp, for bringing this place to our attention! We ordered one of their family meal deals that's available only for to go orders. Our family meal deal included: Large pizza (we had pepperoni and fresh mushroom) Spaghetti with meat sauce Large salad Garlic bread We also ordered Eggplant Parm, cuz we're bougie like that. Everything was delicious, the portions were huge and the server was very friendly and helpful. It was all we could do to eat 1/2 the pizza and all of the salad, so everything else was eaten over the next three days. We did fix up the spaghetti a bit with more spices and herbs, more sauce and added our own meatballs because it was just a little too basic for ur family's taste.. Will definitely go back for the lasagna and chicken piccata! read more

Dining room is open for lunch only now, from 11 am - 4 pm. Tables and booths with old fashioned pizzeria style. We ordered the house salad with a mushroom, pepperoni and sausage pizza. Pizza had the nice crust on it. Domenic'o's has an unusual way of cutting their pizza that's just right. You can get the crust or the inside or both. House salad is a nice blend of cheese, lettuce, tomato's, olives. Service was spot on. Great place for good food and to enjoy each others company. read more

I got some words for you Domenicos, BEST PIZZA IN TOWN. BEST I TELL YOU! Staff is super friendly! No frills type of place if ya no know what I mean. They just pushin GOOD QUALITY FOOD. No seating inside either. Just call order your meal, and pick it up in like 15-20 minutes. Can't get any easier! Theres been days I've even called and the wait for pick up was up to an hour. It's that good. LOCALS LOVE IT! So my favorite all time menu item is their EXTRA LARGE PEPPERONI PIZZA, WELL DONE. Perfect amount of dough, sauce, cheese and of course pepperoni ratio and that crunch! Man oh man, it's GOD TIER! When I say well done they know how to make it on point. I mean PERFECT! If anyone is aware of their antipasto salad that is amazing too. There are times where I have just order that and make my own hoagies at home. The large antipasto is LOADED with salami, provolone, olives, lettuce, onions, mozzarella and tomatoes it's fantastic with some mayo and mustard between a roll, call it the perfect sandwich. But I don't recommend eating it next day, gets super soggy, unless you're into those kinda things! HA! And last their meatball sandwich it's bomb! Can't ask for more. Perfect amount of sauce, cheese and the meatballs are made perfect. They aren't those hard meatballs, super nice and tender. Lots of flavor. Lots of love. Also your choice of sauce either meat sauce or marinara. I'm all about MEAT SAUCE. It's cooked perfect, the extra meat in the sauce enhances the sandwich, just the perfect bite. Small parking lot in the back and don't forget to grab a 2 liter, unless you got some pop at home. They got cold ones inside ready to go with your order. Man, that well made pepperoni is calling my name! Can't wait for my next cheat meal in town, Domenicos it is! read more

Excellent foods for chicken parmigiana and meat sauce spaghetti I ordered for to go!!! Since they have been running take-out orders only!! But services on front desk were still very groomed... Tasted delicious chicken parmigiana that the chicken n the cheese were baked right on ... so tenderness... spaghetti were so Al Denté and delicious meat sauce!!! read more

My go-to spot for minestrone soup, especially on a cold night. Their bowtie pasta with olive oil and parsley is also to die for! While their remodel is beautiful, it cut down on a ton of inside seating. Their dining room is also open for a very short time. It's clear that they have transitioned to wanting to do online order rather than sit down eating. read more

Today was our second trip to Domenico's. The first time we had the Big D pizza, and today we had the Lasagna and garlic bread with cheese. Both meals were very good, and we would order either meal again in a heartbeat. We will definitely be returning. read more

I've been coming here since 2020 and have always really enjoyed the food, but unfortunately, my experience today was disappointing. The pizza I received wasn't anywhere near the quality I've had in the past. It honestly felt like it was made for kids--very different from what I'm used to here. On top of that, it was cut into squares, which I didn't ask for. Not trying to be rude, just wanted to share honest feedback because I've had great experiences here before and was surprised by the difference today. I basically wasted $40. Go to Prime Pizza they are a lot friendlier too. read more

As an Italian food aficionado & connoisseur, I've been to countless Italian restaurants. Domenico's is by far the best of the best in all of Southern California. I live in San Bernardino and am surrounded by an abundance of Italian eateries however, driving the 50+ mile trip to Dom's is no issue when it comes down time to get great quality food, with the upmost service from Joe. Restaurant decor sets you into a time travel & places you in the middle of Italy without the crazy expense of catching a flight. My goal is to work my way across the entire menú and I've yet to find something on the menu that I don't like. I've attached a few pictures of my favorite go to's. Best wishes & enjoy! read more
