    Horrible funnel cake.
    Cici G.

    LWe stopped in for some Funnel Cake (pictured in the window) and Horchata. They were out of Horchata, so I got a Caramel Mocha instead. With tax, the funnel cakes were $8.50 each. The gentleman working the cash register was very friendly and offered to bring the desserts to us in the plaza seating area since they were going to take 6 minutes. I'll wait 6 minutes for fresh Funnel Cake! As soon as we began eating, we knew something was wrong. They were stale, hard as a rock in places and cold in other places. We approached the employee and asked if they served us old, reheated Funnel Cakes. He was surprised and said No, he took them out of the freezer and cooked them in the oven. They weren't old. OMG. Frozen and baked funnel cakes. I told him that they were horrible. And they weren't cheap! The only reason I did not rate this place as 1 star is that the employee offered us a refund and said he would talk to the owner.

    Two HUGE sides of garlic bread. We could have shared one side between us!

    Food was DELICIOUS! I ordered the Pasta de la Mama and my friend ordered the ravioli and we each got a side of garlic bread. The pasta dishes both came with basic small sides of toast, but the garlic bread was HUGE and covered in cheesey goodness! Everything was delicious and exceeded my expectations!

    The gentleman that works here is absolutely lovely! The food is wonderful and at a fair price. I think most people do take out because there isn't very much seating room. We ordered the lasagna, fried calamari and the steak plate. Everything was full of flavor and seasoned to perfection. There is also a variety of drinks to choose from and fun desserts like churros and funnel cake along with the traditional cheese cake and tiramisu. Overall, I will be coming back. I want to try the Mexican pizza next. I highly recommend this place as a great hidden location.

    Meatball sandwich. Burnt w tons of bell peppers and next to no meatballs on mexican bread. GROSS

    DISGUSTING This is Mexican food disguised as Italian food. We ordered 2 sandwiches, They both came on thin hard bread. the Italian sub had very little meat and processed white american cheese, The meatball sub was very burnt around the edges, the sauce was watery and sugary, the meatballs we tiny and hard plus it was more green peppers then anything. It should have been called a green pepper sandwich. This cost 16.25 we only ate 1/4 each and threw the rest away. Our order was for pick up but what we saw of the place in the few moments that we were there was pretty filthy. I was very tempted to just walk out but my boyfriend was super hungry so we just chanced it. A chance I wish we never took. Super gross on all levels.

    Milanesa Sándwich w/ Fries
    Raul E.

    Little gem in the heart of the Valley. 5 stars if your eating it fresh out the sweeter than pancake syrup homey's hands. Inside of the plaza, plenty of parking in the back. Customer service is amazing. l had the Milanesa Sándwich w/ Fries, the wifey had the Chicken Alfredo. Both super fresh and filling, bread toasted to perfection with just the right amount of love. One of our favorite spots to hit when we're feeling adventurous. Lol.. I've been wanting to try the Chicken Alfredo Pizza! Stay tuned.......

    Best dish ever

    Pasta De La Mama and Chiken Salad.
    Danilo G.

    I decided to write this review because I've been coming here for than three years and really liked this place but I was disappointed in their yelp was lacking info and doesn't give justice to this place. Here info on this place 1) Food, their food is great they got many choices varying from Lasagna, Fettuccini Alfredo, Mariscos, wings, fries, shrimp, churros, funnel cake, raspados and much much more. with that being said that's why I really like coming here you can literally eat something new for three months straight. 2) Taste, The food is wonderful I haven't had an issue with food being under or over cooked at this place or overly salty or bland dish, I really like there Forcaccia Sampler. 3) Price, The food is a bit pricey but the food is well proportioned. I shared an alfredo fettuccini with my girl before and we got full. The thing about the price is that the whole shopping center has nearly identical prices. 4) Staff, The store is run by an owner and at times an employee. The owner is super nice waiving at people who pass and very approachable, he speaks choppy English but fully understands it. I haven't dealt with the employee so I don't have much to say. 5) Location, The place itself is small it can fit two people inside but they are located in the Plaza de Valle and right outside this restaurant they have outdoor sitting for easily 30 people. This place is easily for someone who wants to take someone on a date, the place is very layback. 6) Parking, Once again located in Plaza de Valle parking is not an issue I can say there are more than 40 parking spots open at a single time Here are some photos of what I ate and the restaurant itself.

    Pesto pasta with shrimp, calamari, the seafood pasta and garlic bread. All of this for less than $45!

Each flavor combo seems authentic to the CULTURE it represents with unique ingredients. How do they have the fridge space !? The FUNGI pizza with truffle oil was light and crispy with umami flavors from the mushroom and white sauce as the base which only enhances the buttery and creamy notes of the pizza. Great SERVICE and cute to go boxes. Seems like a mom and pop shop with made to order individual pizzas with an authentic oven. Fun LOCAL spot.

    On this day we ordered the Bulgogi pizza which was disappointing…read more Pizza was salty, limited bulgogi and the corn was unnecessary and didn't add any flavor to it. The crust is super thin which isn't a big deal but preferably a thicker dough would hold the topping better. Thw issue is the consistency of the dough is always different, its a gamble you may get a nicely baked pizza or you may get an over cooked or even worse burnt crust. The pizza is so small & pricey for the size (anywhere from $19-$26) and not knowing if your pizza will come out nicely baked or overly cooked/burnt isn't a gamble I want to take. Weeks back we had the the "Bombay tikka" that one had better flavors, although the crust was overly cooked/burnt. The service has been good the 3x we've been here, the workers are always friendly and ready to help with any question, the spot is small and the decor felt like we were back in Italy, but the uncertainty of how cooked/burnt the pizza will be isn't a gamble I'm willing to take again, I like consistency. In San Fernando (on San Fernando Road) there are 2 Mom & Pop pizza shops that have more flavorful pizzas, bigger proportions and always consistent with the crust.

    This was my second time here, and this time I brought my four-year-old daughter, Maya, with me…read more It's such a cute little family-owned spot - tiny, cozy, and welcoming - but the service is honestly what makes it so special. The owner, Antonio, told me about his wife and their three daughters, and how they don't have family here, so it's just the five of them - all while he is working hard and building this business. That alone gave me such a soft spot for their family. But on top of that, the amount of love, care, and effort he clearly puts into both the food and the customer experience is incredible. Antonio was so accommodating with my daughter, who is an extremely picky eater. He made her a simple pasta with butter, and she absolutely loved it - which almost never happens. He also recommended the panna cotta because he said little girls always love it, and he was right. Maya was obsessed with it. The food was delicious, the service was impeccable, and the atmosphere felt so warm and genuine. Definitely recommend - this man and his family deserve all the business.

They have all…read morethe classic Italian dishes such as: Lasagna, Bolognese, Seafood soup, and of course Pizza and many more. The wait staff are always friendly, and the owner/Chef always comes out to talk to all the guests. They also let you bring your own wine bottle, for a modest cork fee. They accept all forms of payment, so if you want to impress your date bring them here.

The crust is great. Not too thick and has a nice crunch to it. They do have other dishes as it's an Italian restaurant. They also offer bottomless pasta but how much can one eat....lol... Service has alway been good whenever we visited. There's plenty of street parking and some available spot in front and out back. Alcohol is offered. I don't know when they started the change with the sourdough bread. It used to be offered when you sit down. Now it's a fee. But one of the waiters said that is offered with a pasta dish which I've heard else wise. Who knows what the truth is. But we just stick to the pizza and salad. It's a valley spot that pretty much everyone I know has been too.
