Will never go back! To go purchase here! Perfettos up charges for pasta which is fine but then adds even more money because it's fettuccine with Alfredo sauce! Really? Isn't fettuccine pasta? What does it matter what kind of sauce it is??? The salad is literally 2 bites! CHEAP CHEAP CHEAP! Do better Perfettos! read more

Always excellent food! We go here for special occasions. Reservations suggested. Definitely a great date night spot.

An absolutely amazing dining experience! Service was impeccable- friendly, personal, efficient. The food was exceptional tasting with way too many great choices. It really took me awhile to decide as my mouth was watering o eat several items. I settled on the grilled salmon that was cooked to perfection. My friend had the clam pasta and it was delicious as well. Both dishes came with soup or salad and tasty garlic bread. A nice, spacious area with well spaced out tables and booths. Great music to dine by. You felt like you were swept away for a brief time to Italy. read more

This place is a nice gem in the heart of Tehachapi. My wife where met with warm greeting and seated right away. The service was amazing and we got to speak to owner who so very friendly, she explained how everything was fresh and home made even the pasta. I had Italian sausage in a red vodka sauce over pasta, and my wife had the chicken parm. I had to try hers and I was not dissapointed, it was just as fantastic as my dish. This is a new favorite of mine. I'm the type that is stuck in a rut only going to a few restaurants in town, my wife saw this place and wanted to try it. So we did and could not believe we had not gone before, so glad we did. I can't wait to go back. read more

We made a reservation for Valentine's Day and I'm so glad we did. It was the best meal we have had in ages. The restaurant is relaxing and the staff very nice. The food was delicious and vegetarian friendly. The creamy red pepper soup made me want to lick the bowl. That pasta was perfect. We look forward to enjoying more special occasions here. read more

Last night I visited Perfetto Italian Restaurant and ordered their homemade pappardelle Bolognese and it truly lived up to its name. The pasta was perfectly al dente, with each ribbon of pappardelle holding just the right bite. The Bolognese sauce itself was rich and comforting, simmered for hours so that the meat (a blend of beef and pork) melted into the tomato base, creating a silky, deeply savory umami. I noticed hints of red wine and fresh basil, along with finely diced carrots and celery that added subtle sweetness and texture.What made this dish stand out was how balanced everything was: the sauce clung to the noodles without feeling greasy, and the sprinkling of Parmigiano-Reggiano on top added salty, nutty notes that tied the whole plate together. Each forkful had a lovely interplay of fresh pasta, hearty meat, and bright tomato. The portion was generous but not overwhelming, and by the time I reached the last bite, I felt comfortably satisfied rather than stuffed.To accompany the pasta, I tried a side of garlic rosemary focaccia. It arrived still warm from the oven, with a crisp exterior and pillowy interior, speckled with fresh rosemary and just the right amount of sea salt. Tearing off a piece and dipping it into the olive oil balsamic reduction they provided was a simple pleasure that complemented the richness of the Bolognese.Service was attentive and gracious. Our waiter, Lucia, checked in early to see if we wanted any wine recommendations. She suggested a glass of Chianti Classico, which had bright cherry notes and moderate tannins--perfect for cutting through the richness of the sauce. Even though the restaurant was busy around 7:30PM on a Thursday, our pasta arrived within 12 minutes of ordering, which was impressive given how fresh and intricate it tasted.The ambiance at Perfetto is warm and inviting: soft, amber lighting, rustic wood tables, and shelves of Italian wines lining the walls. You can hear gentle Italian music playing in the background without it being overpowering. The open kitchen gives you a glimpse of the chefs hand-stretching pasta and plating plates by the moment, which adds to the feeling of authenticity.Overall, the homemade pappardelle Bolognese at Perfetto Italian Restaurant is easily one of the best pasta dishes I've had in the area. If you're craving true Italian comfort food fresh ingredients, expertly prepared pasta, and friendly service Perfetto is a must-visit. I can't wait to go back and try their truffle ravioli or the squid-ink tagliolini next time. Highly recommended! read more

Everything was top notch, so fresh and full of flavor. You can definitely tell everything is homemade with intention.. soup/salad, marinara sauce and fried zucchini, garlic bread, lasagna, and the seafood special was all PHENOMENAL. We travel for work and get so nervous trying new places bc quality has gone down everywhere it seems, but definitely not the case here. Can't wait to come back and try some more menu items. Oh and the desert we brought him pistachio cannolis...you guessed it also Amazing. read more

Food was awesome. I definitely suggest a reservation. We came on a bad night. The staff was overwhelmed with a big party and us other smaller parties suffered for it. We were able to sit right away, but soon every table was full and there were parties waiting for a seat. We asked for drink refills 5 times. They kept coming out of the kitchen with plates of food for the big party, but couldn't bother to bring water and wine refills to the smaller tables. The waiter had a strap on his bracelet that fell on my plate of food as he reached across to place another dish. We ordered food that never made it out. The food that we did receive was very good--that's why I'm still leaving a high rating. We had ordered another round of bread and apps that they were apparently just too busy to make or forgot. Another lady came out that seemed embarrassed and thanked everyone for their patience...But still didn't bring water. We were here for 2 hours. Italian is my favorite and I really wanted to love this place and support a local family-run business. I think it'd be a much better experience on a less busy night with full staff and no after dinner plans. Call ahead for a reservation and plan to stay awhile. read more

This is a sweet little gem in Tehachapi, it feels like you're being served right out of your nonna's kitchen. Their pasta dishes are amazing - they make their own pasta and we always have enough for leftovers for another night of wonderfulness. Also, shoutout to the waitress who is always there, she is incredibly kind, and even got us dessert on the house. If you're looking for a sweet and cozy spot for some incredible pasta, this is the place! read more

Great food, great service. My son and I had a wonderful dinner there tonight. Friendly and helpful staff and fresh food. read more

Hot can of soda that melted the ice instantly. Horrible pasta, I didn't even eat it. Took us 15 years to try this place, and we won't be back. We left and had dinner someplace better. read more

Get there at 4:30 because when we arrived at 4:45, all but two tables were taken. Service: They had one waitress serving all 11 tables, therefore there was a long wait for everything (from drinks to taking orders to serving the food). Not the girls fault, and she was super great and apologetic for the wait time. The owner was in the kitchen but did take time away from the stove to check on some of the tables. Food: Portobello fries were great except their oil was reused / not a new batch since the coloring was a dark brown. Salad and garlic bread as typical, but my husband really enjoyed their creamy potato soup. My husband decided to share and try their eggplant parm and their lasagna. Their eggplant parm came in three thick slices with sauce and cheese. Great flavors and my husband enjoyed it more than I did. The lasagna was at most a 3x3 slice, small and drenched in melted cheese. I ate about 1/4 of it there and took my other 1/4 home and ate it the next day which tasted better. In all, I'd give this place a second try. read more

(First, I only give five star reviews to the occasional transcendent experiences. Everything doesn't need to be the "best ever. Everything can't be five stars. A four star review is damn good.) Our service was fast, efficient, professional, friendly, and polite. (Luna (!) and a young woman whose name I don't remember.) Even during a rush. The pastas were excellent. (My friend Stephanie said it was the best Alfredo sauce she has ever had - and she's been to Italy.) The ambience is relaxed. Just right. read more

Quite possibly the best Italian food I've ever had. I had the chicken cordon bleu, my wife had this seafood medley pasta dish. She had similar to say of her dish . The service and atmosphere followed suit with the food. If you want to eat at an establishment that puts care into each plate served, and into the overall experience, read no further and drop by. Tell them I said Thanks! read more

I ordered the seafood special and it was absolutely horrible. Other than the seafood. The marinara sauce was sweeter than candy, and the pasta was completely soggy, and I could not eat it yet they offered me no apologies or discount. What a shame that I can't get good Italian food around here anymore, pre-pandemic I remember they were good. read more

Homemade noodles . The spaghetti and meatballs are spot on and delicious. Would stop by here again next time on our next roadtrip

We love Perfettos , the fact that it's as it should be- made from scratch, unlike many places- The food we get is always great, and the service is very good as well. We only wish it opened at 4pm! read more

Indoors is a fancy little dining area, wish we could've eaten inside, but since its covid season 2020, we cannot. The eggplant parm is massive and delicious! Something was strange about the shrimp scampi, maybe the pasta and white wine sauce didnt go hand in hand but both if eaten separately could be good, and shrimp were large and mouth watering. Garlic bread was crunchy and flavorful but still had better sticks elsewhere. Soup and/or salad comes with Entrees and both are great quality. The Owner looked to be really busy, hard working, friendly and kind. The chef was hard at it as well. Good job yall, keep it up! read more
