The service here from the person taking my order to the proprietor (I think) is so friendly and warm. I say sandwich shop because that's how it popped up my radar but really they are like a small café with actual warm entrees available that sound and look amazing. I ordered the roasted chicken sandwich on focaccia bread. And it was so juicy and delicious. The amazing person who I assume is the owner came from outback and let me try some of a custard dessert. Also very tasty. If this place or closer to me, I would come here a lot more often. I can't say enough good things about this place. And I seriously wanna try some other hot entrées. Because it was in the middle of the day, parking was not an issue at all.

I came to eat at pasta party a few days ago after telling myself to visit for a long time now. I…read morestill remember the old deli that was there prior to this restaurant and I've seen numerous social media ads and posts about the place so I wanted to check it out. I think I was a little hesitant because in my head I was thinking how good could possibly really be? In my head spaghetti/pasta is something I can make it home and almost thought it a waste of money to go out of my way to go out specifically to eat this dish. I ordered the Arrabiata pasta with the sausage. I'll admit I was a little thrown off by added cost of each tolling and also added cost of the Arrabiata sauce and I also did wait until a fair amount before the food was ready for takeout. But the pasta really blew me away. I'm still thinking about how good it tasted. I would definitely come back and I actually wanna bring my dad who loves spicy pasta like this. It was really that good. I can't think of another place that has this level of pasta let alone this price. The only negative I would say in regards to one of the workers. The cashier was manned by wonderful woman who did every and all tasks from taking the orders to putting food items in the oven to answering the phone I'm probably much more than that. I don't know. In contrast there was an Asian man with a black shirt who was also working. He looked lost and completely helpless. There was a moment where this woman was so busy and there was a ringing that I assume was from either a phone call or a delivery order. This man did not offer to help more nor did he help from what I saw. He was utterly helpless and unhelpful. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt with the encouragement "Hey help your team out!" The woman on the other hand was doing so many things simultaneously and yet was really kind at the same time. Anyways, I'm giving my review of a five star because I wanna see this place succeed and I'll definitely come back .

Came here for a Wednesday night dinner and overall was pretty disappointed:…read more First, the soda machine wasn't working at all as it seemed like they were still setting it up, so we were left with water from a jug they had on the counter. Second, we had ordered garlic bread for an appetizer and it didn't come out until after the main entrees came out which kinda defeats the purpose of an appetizer Third, I got the beef ravioli and my buddy got the meatball sub. The ravioli wasn't bad but wasn't good either. Definitely not satisfied with it. My buddy let me try his sub and I've got one word for it: bland. It looks like this place was under new management as there was a sign out front saying they just reopened a week ago so would I give them a nothing chance later, maybe, but I feel like it would be the same experience.

Lattes and cannoli. Sometimes this is all you need. Until you visit Cortina's market. There is…read moreno way that you will walk out without a basket full of goodies. Today we picked up a jar of giardiniera, pepperoncini, a sourdough boule, rosemary crackers, Italian cookies, and even a cool tee shirt. It gets pretty crowded on the Saturday. Parking lot may fill up, if you are lucky there will never some parking on Orange Avenue. I definitely prefer visiting on weekdays but when you need your cannolis, you just go! Glad we did, for sure! Well if you need anything Italian, highly likely you will find it here. The deli is amazing. The wine selection is complete. Olive oil of all kinds. Baked goods will impress. Pick up all your needs for your next pasta dinner party. Can't wait to visit again soon!

Their deli section got plenty of great selection of meats & cheeses. And their bakery part also got plenty of pastries and well know Italian cookies and individual cakes. Staff are great and friendly plus knowledgeable of what they're selling. I ended up buying several items instead of one or two. Definitely a place to go for good quality Italian ingredients to cook at home. As for the Pizza place, we got 2 types of sandwiches and lasagna. The Italian sandwich was just okey, the bread was not quite a right type for it. Just chewy outside and abit blanch of the filling. The meatballs sandwich is quite delightful, good amount of sauce and big meatball and go nicely with the sandwich. The lasagna was good but abit under seasoning, abit watering and it could used more meats. Overall it was okey place for a quick bites and easy to take away. Parking can be hectic and abit out of control since folks don't know what to do since people coming in and block cars that need to go out...another word. It's a small parking lot for In&Out. It was easy when I got there at 10:30am and the parking lot was pretty much empty (since market open early then their pizza side). When leave I have to wait for 5mins in order to get the car out since there are cars waiting right infront of my car and there are car infront and behind. There is a parking lot right across and street parking too, and I think it would be much easier then park in their lot during their busy times.

The restaurant is small but has such a cozy atmosphere, with just enough tables to feel intimate without being cramped. My husband and I ordered the uni cream pasta and the bolognese - the uni pasta was delicious, rich and briny with that unmistakable uni flavor coming through, however it was a bit too heavy by the end but still worth trying though if you're a fan of uni! The bolognese on the other hand was ABSOLUTELY delicious, probably top 3 pastas I've had in my life. It was really flavorful and you could tell it had been simmered for quite a while, and the wine flavor really complimented the whole dish so well without being overpowering. Both pastas were cooked perfectly al dente and honestly left me wanting more. The chef actually came out and brought us our pastas himself, which was such a kind and personal touch. You could tell he genuinely cared about the food and the experience he was giving us and little details like that made the whole meal feel even more special. Overall such a great find, and I'm so glad I finally checked it out after hearing the hype. Would definitely come back to try more of their menu!

Good amount of sauce and perfect firmness on the noodles. But you know what I didnt like? It took awhile to get service here. My water was never refilled and getting the check was a chore. Three people work here: the Hispanic chef, the Japanese guy who expedites the plates, and the lady who does everything else. But the worse part is the 18 percent tip that is the lowest choice without hitting custom tab. All in all, it's a cute place with tasty pasta that you might as well get it togo.

We got the calamari to start. For mains, we ordered lobster ravioli, pasta di la zia, and pasta alla davide. Finished the meal with tiramisu. Calamari- Fried to perfection with a nice chewy interior. The seafood was fresh and tasty. Served with a side of marinara and a lemon wedge. Lobster Ravioli- You get big ravioli pieces filled with meaty lobster and pink sauce. The sauce is creamy and pairs well with the mild seafood. Pasta Di La Zia- You get juicy shrimp offset with crispy pancetta pieces. Arugula and mushrooms add a freshness to the dish. Finished truffle oil in a creamy sauce. Pasta Alla Davide- You get a creamy pesto based sauce with juicy scallops and shrimp. The seafood is fresh and in generous amounts. Finished with goat cheese and sundried tomatoes. Tiramisu- This was a perfect way to end the evening! You start with a strong espresso flavor balanced with creamy marscapone. A classic dessert! Great experience overall!

Today was almost 98 in Cerritos again. My hubby and I…read moredecided to go to North Italia during happy hour. There were so many customers this afternoon. Happy Friday!!! So busy.... I noticed happy hour menu was changed. No more margherita pizza. Only flat bread for the appetizer. Dissapointed! Our server was Jacob, he suggested us to get lunch course fixe menu $25 per person which were one appetizer w small plate, 1 entrée. They had many selections of appetizers and entrées. We chose Charcuterie, Italian crispy risotto ball called Cacio e pepe arancini as 2 appetizers. For 2 entrées, parpadelle bolonese and tie dye Margherita pizza w pesto drizzle. It was so flavorful to taste the crispy risotto balls and charcuterie w prosciutto, olive, cheese, and etc. We loved bolonese parpadelle. Give 5 stars. We ordered tie dye margherita pizza for the first time, it was not good. Very oily and ruined the original pizza taste. I asked our server to make real margherita pizza w pesto sauce on the side. Finally it came completely back to original taste. Happy day!! Sometimes the chef developed the new flavors but simple and original recipe was the best in my experience. Today we both were so happy to taste the new menu, lunch course fixe menu until 4 daily. Great price, great deal, and great taste....Great service. We were sooooo full and took entire pizza and pasta to home for next day. We really enjoyed our afternoon thanks to North Italia. Loved lunch course fixe and happy hour. Great Italian restaurant near our home is more advantage. Recommend everyone for the beers, pizzas, and pastas....awesome!
