You get some restaurant quality cooked to order pasta at a decent price. Seriously not a lot of complaints here. I got some penne arrabbiata and it definitely brought the heat. I'm pretty sensitive to spice even though I enjoy it so I had to go grab a beer at the brewery located within the same food hall. But the pasta was delicious and cooked really well. Justin really nice fast casual meal that if you just want to go out without breaking the bank. This is a great option.

Pastaphony bills itself as "Where pasta gets a personality."…read more Judging from the fiery heat that blasted outtve my plentiful order of Pasta Arrabbiata, I'd venture that my particular entree's personality was, indeed, zesty and irascible...to the point of inedible. On this particular weeknight, your favorite Yelp correspondent was pivoting in and out of Glendora's Food Hall like a metronome, ferrying a quartet of meals from the hall for my wee Uber gig. Pastaphony caught my attention within moments of nesting my customer's order into my insulated carrier- my SUV's cabin was redolent of cheese, tomatoes and overall hone-cooked goodness! I went with Pasta Arrabbiata, then customized my order by adding a breaded chicken breast, black olives, onions, roasted peppers and shaved parmesan. On the plus side, Pastaphony gives ample portions- My entree weighed almost as much as a two-item combo platter from your friendly neighborhood Chinese takeout place! And, while the dish took me to Flavortown...unfortunately it was the Mojave Desert, with its scorching flavor profile and intense, spicy taste. The star of the dish was the breaded chicken cutlet and the shaved parm, but since the penne pasta overwhelmed the chicken/parm by an eight to one ratio...this was a difficult dish to finish. Context- As the acknowledged "lightweight" in a family of folks who typically relish spicy food, I asked my wife to sample my dish. She was born in Michoacacan and regularly quaffs homegrown Serrano and Habanero peppers like they're ice. Even she was surprised by how utterly spicy my pasta dish was! My entree cost $26.39 after taxes, a wee steep for a single protein pasta dish. By comparison, you can spend $1 more at any Johnny Carinos or Olive Garden and get a three-item combo with bread and/or salad accompaniments. So I wasn't satisfied by the "value for money" question, either. This experienced reviewer probably ordered the WDD (Wrong Damn Dish) but at their prices (a side of garlic bread or breadsticks is $10.99!) one os hesitant to retake the plunge.

This month Eddie's is offically celebrating their 41st birthday…read more Congratulations!!! Almost 20 years of my enjoying Spaghetti Eddie's great food & service. I have told many people about my personal experiences here and everyone that has visited the restaurant from my suggestions were impressed with the food and excellent service. I am temporarily living out of the area, but always make Eddie's one of my first restaurant visits when I return home. My favorite food is true Italian recipe based and Eddie's uses some of the finest ingredients and seasonings I've sampled. From main courses to salads and desserts, everything is delicious and obviously prepared from scratch. Visit the restaurants website and sign up for their monthly specials. These limited edition offerings are available all month long and everyone a stand-out in my opinion. Lunch specials are a real value and the quality is never compromised. Many of the staff have been with Eddie's for ten or more years and really enjoy their jobs and wouldn't want to work anywhere else. I read a review of Eddie's made recently by a patron and needed to update my review of Eddie's made several years ago. This restaurant would not be as successful as it has been for so many years without taking good care of their guests. My experience with servers has shown that they will do anything in their power to make your visit a happy one with great food and service to match. Mike, one of the managers that I have become acquainted with over the years would not let anyone leave without their being fully satisfied with their dining experience. This restaurant truly wants to have repeat customers that look forward to each and every visit. About a 15 minute drive east of Eddie's in Glendora are two sister restaurants in the community of Claremont that Eddie has also created very successfully thanks to the expertise of Eddie demanding quality food and service for each and every guest. You can't grow to this level without giving your guest what they expect from a superior dining experience. Eddie's Italian Eatery on West Foothill in Claremont has a menu similar to the Glendora location. This location is only a bit over 20 years old, somewhat new compared to Glendora. The upscale masterpiece of Eddie's is "Tutti Mangia-Italian Chophouse" located on Harvard Ave. in historic downtown Claremont. Fine dining at its best with an elegant setting and food to match. A special treat for anyone wanting the most special evening of elegant dining. It's worth the drive to experience the menu and decor. This location has experienced 30 years of success and is a very popular restaurant in the college town of Claremont. When you visit any of the three restaurants that Eddie operates you will be well treated and served some of the most authentic Italian food available anywhere. I never hesitate to make a 15 mile drive to a restaurant that truly has exceptional food and service.

After recently reading an extremely negative review made appx 2 weeks ago about Spaghetti Eddie's,…read moreI felt compelled to share my own experience--especially as someone who has lived in this area for 50 years and has watched our community change tremendously over the decades. I remember when the Mayflower Shopping Center was thriving and nearly every storefront was occupied. Unfortunately, many businesses have come and gone over the years. But Spaghetti Eddie's is still here--41 YEARS later! That alone says something. You don't remain in business for more than four decades without doing something right. They have weathered years of change, economic challenges, and even the incredibly difficult COVID era. During that time, they adapted their operations so they could continue serving the community that has supported them for so many years. Yes, the shopping center may not look like it did years ago, but that has absolutely nothing to do with the quality of this restaurant. In fact, on any given night, you may still have trouble finding a close parking spot because Spaghetti Eddie's is packed! When it comes to something as serious as a food allergy, however, I strongly believe we all have a responsibility to advocate for our own safety as well. If you have a severe allergy, it is always wise to double-check your order before leaving the restaurant. Placing the entire burden on a young employee--who may even be working their very first job--without acknowledging our own responsibility seems unfair. No restaurant is perfect, and mistakes can happen anywhere. But I believe a business should be judged by the overall experience it consistently provides--not defined by one incident or one extremely negative review. My family and I have always felt welcomed here. The entire staff works hard, and we have received wonderful service over the years. And I have to give a special shoutout to Manny! He is absolutely amazing at his job and someone I highly recommend. He recently suggested the mushroom soup with truffle oil--something I probably never would have ordered because I tend to stick with my favorites. I am SO glad I listened to him. It was incredible! And here's a tip: dip the bread in the soup. You can thank me later! Then there's the calamari. I order calamari almost everywhere I go, and Spaghetti Eddie's lightly cooked calamari remains one of my absolute favorites. So, before allowing someone else's negative review to make your decision for you, go experience Spaghetti Eddie's yourself and form your own opinion. Think about what 41 years in business really represents: thousands of customers, family dinners, birthdays, celebrations, first dates, longtime regulars, hardworking employees, and countless memories created around their tables. As someone who has called this community home for 50 years, I appreciate the businesses that have stood the test of time--and Spaghetti Eddie's certainly has. 41 years strong, and there's a reason for it. Give them a try. Order the mushroom soup with truffle oil, get the calamari, and enjoy your evening. Spaghetti Eddie's continues to have my support!

When you walk in the aroma if this place will have you purchasing the display cases... it's so delicious! Lol! Staff is amazing! The manager came out and helped me choose a balsamic vinegar and olive oil for dipping because my husband got a crazy hair up his butt and was craving this! We ended up leaving with Sammies and pastas! Everything was amazing! The baguette with the olive oil was just amazing! Thank you management, and the young lady that assisted. We will be coming here until we try the whole menu!! Thanks and be kind! End racism!

Fresh, crisp lettuce is generously topped with flavorful Italian meats, creamy cheese, marinated artichoke hearts, juicy cherry tomatoes, black olives, pepperoncini, and colorful vegetables. Every bite is packed with authentic Italian flavor and the perfect balance of savory, tangy, and fresh ingredients. The portions are generous, the ingredients are high quality, and everything tastes incredibly fresh. This salad is hearty enough to be a meal on its own and makes a beautiful addition to any gathering. You can tell Claro's takes pride in using traditional recipes and premium ingredients. If you're looking for a delicious, authentic antipasto salad in the Covina area, this one is a must-try. Highly recommended and definitely worthy of five stars!

I've enjoyed seeing diners enjoying some delicious looking meals countless times so we finally made it a point stop in. We had an amazing experience from when we were seated until the end of our meal . The decor was very warm and inviting. It's nice to have a fancy restaurant in the area. Chad , our server was very personable and attentive. He gave some very constructive opinions on the wines and food options. I opted for the chicken parmagiana which was an excellent choice . The portion was large, our food came out piping hot and every bite was delicious. My partner enjoyed the special which was a spicy seafood pasta. At first bite , he actually exclaimed, "wow." After our meal , we spoke with the owner and were so sad to find out they're closing at the end of February. We will make it a couple times before then. Our best to the owners- Glendora is losing a wonderful restaurant .

I've always loved PPP & have been a loyal customer for many years. After yesterday, however, I'm…read morenot sure I'll go back. Here's why: Friday @ 12:45p, I called to place a catering order to be delivered tomorrow (Saturday) @ 5:15pm - over $200 in food. Everything was confirmed to be good-to-go. Saturday @ 5:30p as I was finishing the prep for 50 people arriving to our house (25 of them kids), I realized the food hadn't arrived so I called for the ETA. The girl was baffled at the inquiry - there was no such order - she then discovered it had been wrongly inputted as an order for Sunday! She immediately put me on hold to transfer me to the woman who incorrectly inputted my order w/o relaying any of the info to her. So when the woman got on the phone, I had to repeat the info, wait for her to understand & connect the dots, and discuss a solution. All I got was an offer to check with the kitchen and, if they weren't too busy, get the order made. She never apologized, but did agree to "rush" the order. Food arrived an hour later (after our guests arrived). No discount on the receipt, no apology - they did include a container of about a dozen mini-cookies - gee, thanks. not even enough for 1/2 our guests. And, to add insult to injury, some of the ham sandwiches had hard cartilage/ham bone (not sure) in them. Chew carefully I guess. Maybe the ownership changed b/c this is not what I expected from PPP .. how disappointing.

The Chicken Marsala was rich, tender, and full of flavor, the Margherita pizza was fresh and perfectly balanced, and the vegetable pasta was excellent. We also loved the salad with beets and feta, along with the roasted potatoes and vegetables--every dish tasted fresh and thoughtfully made. The service was warm and attentive, and the atmosphere made the meal even more enjoyable. You can really tell that Cosmo takes pride in his restaurant and his cooking. He is an excellent chef, and that care comes through in the quality of the food. Great food, great service, and a welcoming ambience. We had a fantastic meal and will definitely be back. Highly recommend Cosmo's Bistro!

Calling can be a little frustrating because they aren't the quickest to answer the phone but once you finally get through, the process is pretty quick. We were quoted 15-20 minutes for pickup, arrived around the 15-minute mark, & they were already getting our pizza ready. Our wings were ready to go, so we only waited about another 5 minutes before everything was handed to us. Now, I will say... it's definitely on the pricier side! They charge for toppings in general, not just extra toppings, which I thought was kind of silly lol. Even an extra side of ranch is $1. Our total came out to about $73 for a large pizza & 10 wings, so definitely not the most budget-friendly pizza night. BUT... the food was actually really good! Everything was still hot by the time we got back to the house! The wings were my favorite. They were absolutely delicious, had just the right amount of sauce, & somehow still had a nice crunch to them. That's a big win for me because saucy wings can easily get soggy. These were SO good! Overall, I'm glad we gave this place a try because it definitely exceeded my expectations. The food is tasty & the wings are a must-try in my opinion, but just be prepared to spend a little more than you might expect. Really good food, just costly!

My five-star rating for this restaurant is not solely based on the complimentary items.

The potato salad, baked beans, and corn on the cob were also excellent accompaniments. While the buns were fresh, I found the cornbread to be a little dry. Nevertheless, I found everything to be delicious overall. I certainly plan on returning.

The lady helping us also let me try before I pick. I ended up going with their mac and cheese and green beans. I love their mac and cheese! Its rich and creamy and very good. Their brisket was good. A bit dry in certain pieces. The tray also comes with pickles, pickled onions, and slider rolls. I end up making a couple of brisket slider and they were great. They do offer ordering the meats by the pounds and you can order their sides in different sizes containers. Overall, great place for BBQ if you're in the area.
