    Was craving Italian food and we love coming to this plaza, so we decided to give this place a try…read more We made a reservation, but when we walked in it wasn't nearly as busy as I thought it would be. The staff were super friendly and professional from the start, and the restaurant itself is really nice inside. The dim lighting gives it a cozy dinner vibe, and it was cool being able to watch them make and stretch the dough through the kitchen windows. We ordered a variety of dishes to share, so we got to try a little bit of everything. The focaccia came out thick and fluffy with olive oil and balsamic for dipping, which was a nice start. The bone marrow presentation was interesting and came with beef tartare and chips which were super appetizing. The light chips were very light which I enjoyed. The meatballs were HUGE and covered in sauce and plenty of cheese, but flavor wise they were just okay for me. One of the meatballs was super burnt and dry. We also tried a few pastas, including the carbonara and some of the red sauce pastas. They looked great and definitely didn't hold back on the cheese, but overall the pasta wasn't anything I'd say was to die for. It was good, just nothing that really stood out. The pizza was probably one of the better things we ordered the crust was nicely charred and fluffy, there were plenty of toppings, and I'm glad they weren't stingy with the ranch. Overall, I'd give it 3 stars. Nothing was necessarily bad, and the service and atmosphere were both great, but for the food and prices I was expecting a little more of a wow factor. We had a nice dinner and enjoyed trying everything, but is this somewhere I'd randomly start craving and have to come back to? Probably not. Still worth trying at least once if you're already in the area and in the mood for Italian.

The inside had a classic Italian restaurant feel without feeling overcrowded even though it was very busy. I tried everything ordered to our table! My entree started with a minestrone soup. I loved it! (Soup served with outstanding garlic bread) This soup even though a basic dish, transported me back to sitting with my grandma in her kitchen, with her minestrone she would make. With every single bite this happened. Magical. I enjoyed two different appetizers. One cheese ravioli appetizer with sauce to dip in and the second a delicious asparagus dish. We had two different pizzas. One a margarita and the other cheese. Both were great and we all loved the sauce & crust. I had the chicken and vegetable entree. The chicken was cooked perfectly. The only thing I would have liked for this, perhaps as an option. Maybe a light sauce to drizzle on the vegetables. (Butter garlic or something similar to a Marsala sauce). We ordered cannolis to go. Mine didn't make it out of the parking lot. lol. Yes!! I will order again. We enjoyed all our food and we look forward to going back again. Very friendly service all around.

    A Hidden Gem in El Dorado Hills Amazing Food & Even Better…read moreHospitality! My wife and I stopped by Vine EDH for lunch today while we were in El Dorado Hills for a doctor's appointment. We were hungry, happened to stumble upon this cozy little spot, and I'm so glad we did. As soon as we walked in, we were welcomed by Jaime, who was working behind the bar. Right away, I told my wife, "She looks like she owns the joint." Turns out--I was right! We asked Jaime for her recommendations, and she suggested the tri-tip tacos. We went with those along with the chicken caprese sandwich and truffle fries. The kitchen happened to be having an issue with the oven that day, so the food took a little longer than Jaime wanted. But my wife and I honestly didn't mind one bit. We were enjoying some rare time alone away from the kids, having a great conversation, and chatting with Jaime. She was incredibly personable and made us feel like regulars even though it was our first visit. Then the food started arriving. First up were the tri-tip tacos, and they were absolutely scrumptious. The meat was flavorful and tender, with just the right balance of zest and saltiness. They disappeared pretty quickly! Next came the chicken caprese sandwich, and WOW. The chicken was tender, the fresh mozzarella paired perfectly with the spinach, and everything came together beautifully. It was an amazing sandwich. But for me, the unexpected star of the show was the truffle fries topped with cheese. Crispy, piping hot, cheesy, and ready to be devoured. I could have easily eaten another order by myself. My wife enjoyed a refreshing glass of white wine, while I was the responsible driver for the day and stuck with a near beer. Then came the biggest surprise. When I pulled out my credit card to pay, Jaime told us that our entire meal and drinks were on the house because of the delay. We were genuinely shocked. The funny thing is, we weren't upset about the wait at all. We had enjoyed every minute of our lunch. But that gesture told us everything we needed to know about Jaime and the way she runs her business. She truly takes pride in Vine EDH and genuinely cares about making sure every person who walks through the door has an amazing experience. Great food will bring you into a restaurant, but hospitality like that is what makes you remember it and want to come back. We will absolutely be returning the next time we're in El Dorado Hills. Except next time, I'm making sure we bring some cash so we can leave a BIG tip for the amazing bartender who just happens to be the owner too! Thank you, Jaime, for the incredible food, your kindness, and especially your amazing hospitality. You turned what was supposed to be a quick lunch into one of the highlights of our day. Vine EDH absolutely earned five stars from us. We'll be back!

At least according to my fellow Yelpers! And as always... all those 5-star reviews were right. After three visits to PCPC, I am in total agreement. The food and customer service are exceptional. The ambiance is casual and fun. You can feel the Italian vibe for sure. Just look around. My dining experiences have included three different lunches... which included cannoloni, Caesar salad, tomato/bacon/lettuce sandwich and even a take out ravioli meal with sauce. So awesome. Oh... and those delicious cannoli! Owner and chef extraordinaire... Mike is onsite every single day. He is a fun personality and is dedicated to providing all his customers a great experience. He is generous with his complimentary desserts or "try my new olive oil". Which has such an elegant taste, btw. He definitely goes the extra mile for his diners which is so special these days. It is obvious he puts his heart and soul in his restaurant. If you want an extra special eating experience... Pacific Coast Pasta Company is worth seeking out. Just click on "directions" because it is definitely an El Dorado Hills hidden gem. Oh... he caters and hosts private parties too. Check out the website the very popular weekly specials. You may order online from the tasty menu items. Private parking lot is a nice plus. A little slice of "Italian" heaven!

Big salads, interesting specials, sandwiches (the Rueben is excellent) and of course, stellar pasta of all kinds. Dessert is perfection as well...giant cookies on occasion and be sure to ask for the cannoli. It's the best I've ever tasted! The owner and staff are very patient as I look over the menu for the tenth time and ask about ingredients. Truly, it's hard to decide!

Drum roll please... the outdoor patio is fabulous and exudes a relaxing and "I'm on vacation" ambiance. It is actually why I made that first reservation. Location, location, location. Right?

The blackberry pork chop was a highlight! It was juicy, flavorful, and gone in a blink! The Cajun scallops (seasonal) were good, served over a nicely spiced Cajun sauce, though the portion leans on the lighter side with three scallops. We wrapped up with a lemon dessert that added a bright, refreshing note to finish the meal. We sat outside which made for a relaxing setting.

Just before noon we were seated right away but it took several minutes before our server actually showed up. I noticed the ambiance was dark and hasn't changed AT ALL over the past 10-15 years. It is showing (and smelling) it's age and really needs a freshening up to a clean and modern take on Italian decor. Outdoor seating is available and the restaurant is in a well maintained shopping area near a grocery store. We loved seeing the fresh made bread coming out of the oven which is served with an oil/vinegar dip; however, the bread was doughy in the middle and became inedible. The Fettucini Alfredo for $25 was meh. The pasta was gummy and the sauce needed A LOT of salt, pepper and extra parmesan to amp up the flavor. The Penne with sausage was good with full flavored red sauce. And the pizza and other dishes that went by looked delicious but I based on this trip I am not sure we'll be back.
